  1. You imagine if this place was down all day today 😂 People would be getting ticks and
  2. Holy fricken pickup! That is an awesome cache of TMNT Goodness!!
  3. Yep quoting myself here, because upon going to Chi-Town Comic Con this evening...I have possibly been undervaluing this book…very much so. There was quite a bit of talk about 9.8 #1s and specifically CC’s 9.8 Nov auction book. I talked to handful of gents who have no doubts that book will reach $200,000+. Couple legit hombres who said they’d pay whatever it takes for one. So now I’m really gonna be as I watch the auction and possibly eating a crapp load of crow upon hammer price. PS If any Turtle guys n gals are going to the con, make sure to check out “Red Hood Comics” booth. Rob is a helluva nice guy, with a shiat load of TMNT books. Like….a whole wall of em Never seen so many slabbed TMNT books at a booth! I had so much fun talking to him that I didn’t take a single pic. I know, I know - this post sucks without pics, I’m sorry everyone - totally my bad
  4. Thank-you, so much. “Journey” is a perfect word for it all. There was no way I could have completed my set without those individuals’ help and or generosity, no way. Without a doubt, the hunt/chase is such a big part of collecting. Possibly the biggest part. During the hunt though, pretty amazing what & who you can come across. Like you said, the relationships and friendships that can transpire, are pretty damnn neat. These Boards (Turtle Threads) can be a pretty kick arse place for this. You are almost at the end of your journey. Seriously, way closer than you give yourself credit for. Heck, you got #16 outta the way, that in itself is amazingly awesome!! Enjoy where you are and what you have. Imho #16 is possibly the hardest of the three. Best of luck with the remainder of your quest🤘
  5. Those 3 books are so tough to find in 9.8 condition, or acquire 9.8 slabbed. Congrats on your book!!🤘
  6. No matter what, like you said - still a ludicrous amount of 🧀 for these
  7. My thoughts and sentiments exactly🤘 I’d even say $150,000
  8. I still find $245K for a 9.8 ludicrous and just hard to swallow. Especially with a 9.4 at $35K and a another 9.6 going for $58K. Anxious to see the 9.8 “auction” results from CC in a couple months.
  9. TMNT #1 2nd print 9.6 I Didn’t realize this was going on til tonight. What are 2nd print 9.6s going for past months? Has there been any 9.8 sales??
  10. I’m 43, huge Bond fan, big fan of Daniel Craig. Saw it last night with some buddies (also Bond fans) and we were all like wtf, we waited this long for that! Tied for last place with Quantum Solace
  11. Totally agree with 12 issues, could have added a lot more substance to the characters/past. But I will take this short run🏆
  12. Always loved the colors on this cover Very nice copy - congrats🤘
  13. Read and loved twice tonight 💪🏆🤘 Wish there was a helluva lot more than 5 😖
  14. 😂 Its our new coin bank 🤗 so we put our loose change there
