  1. That hurt me to read it. 😭 What a great cover though, I'm sure it's somewhere in good hands.
  2. Wow! I love that one! Do you mind letting me know what you let it go for?
  3. Hi guys! Would any of you have any TMNT Adventures covers for sale? I'm collecting the run right now and all the covers got me feeling nostalgic reading them as a kid, and I'd love to have a OA cover. Not looking for any one in particular. Thank you! 🥳🐢🧀
  4. Hi guys. A little over 2 years ago, I decided to try and collect the TMNT Vol. 1 run in CGC 9.8, excluding #1 of course. All first print. #1 - 7.0 #2 - #62 - 9.8 I just received the last book I needed to finish the run, the ever elusive #13. After several years of looking all over the place to piece my collection together, it feels weird to be "done". I just wanted to thank the board members here that helped me here on these boards with advice, some books and just generally have a good time in my hunt. Now to figure out what's next to collect. 😀
  5. Would you mind sharing what the sale price was?
  6. Wasn't the last high 9.8 sale $245,000? That was a few months ago at Comic Connect.
  7. The one at comic connect is at $195k with 4 days left. 😎🐢❤
  8. I think it's a pretty fair comparison, considering where they are in their life cycle. Do I think TMNT #1 will get to AF 15 prices? Probably not but it's still the biggest Copper Age book out there, with a small print run and many collectors (like myself) that will never sell their copies. I think the demand will always be there.
  9. Congrats! I've been looking for that book too. Where were you lucky enough to score that one?
  10. Thank you! I read your registry about your journey in getting your TMNT run and all the people that helped you along the way. Epic! I love the hunt and it's so much fun meeting people that also enjoy the Turtles and I'm very appreciative of the help along the way to getting this far with my run. Hopefully one day I can finish the run, but like you said those last few issues will be tough.
  11. My bad, I miss read your comment. I think that one is at comic connect too. Personally, I think these sky rocketing price were unsustainable and are settling back down to more realistic prices. I think the 9.8 will go between $150 - $180k. Still amazing price gains compared to a few years ago.
  12. Yes, I'd have the entire main run, except for the #1 for first print. I'm also collecting just the main run and not all the reprints. I have a couple, but I got a good deal on those and not actively buying them. Also putting it out there if anyone wants to help me get those last 3 issues, shoot me a DM. 😎🙏
  13. I still need #11, #13, and #28. I seriously thought the #16 would be the hardest to get. I feel very fortunate.
  14. I know we're not supposed to post the competitions slabs in here but I blocked the logo so hopefully it's ok. I'm beyond happy to add this to my collection. This book is literally impossible to find in a 9.8.
  15. Let us know when it gets posted and the price you decided. Good luck with your sale I'm sure it won't last long.
  16. I have mixed feelings on Last Ronin. I really like it, but it feels rushed and the way some of the characters die feels dumb and lacks gravity to me. Still a fun read though, just wish it was going to be a 12 issue series so they could flesh it out more.
  17. I believe it is an airtight case. That was one of the reasons I wanted to get input here. I know people say that sometimes keeping the books in a safe causes staple rust.
  18. Quick question for you guys. What do you store the early oversized issues in? I have the BCW plastic bins for the regular CGC sized books, but I have 6 or 7 oversized early Turtle books and want to keep them safe. I'm attaching a pic of a storage case I was thinking of getting for them. I'd appreciate your guys thoughts and / or insight.
  19. I would also suggest mycomicshop. They sold several copies recently for great money and were gone within hours. Or post it in the sales forum and see if a buyer comes who's trust worthy on the boards with good rep. That's how I recently bought my copy from Jeranimal. If I hadn't bought his I'd probably be messaging you right now. LOL. Good luck with the sale.
  20. Speaking of "City at War" I finally completed the 13 issue run. All 9.8, Blue Label, White Pages. I got home today and the final issue I needed had just arrived. It felt so good having them all together.
  21. What are your guys thoughts on this? Almost 40k higher than the previous 9.8 sale. 👀 Great sig placement, but bad wrap. $144,000 is a pretty wild price for this.
  22. If I was rich and I wanted it, then yes I would. 😎
  23. If you guys add Primer 2 to the list I vote we change the thread name to the Black PACT. 😎
