Icculus308win Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Well worth the wait/time for the finished piece. The pages just pop with the black - beautiful Danny? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpideyFein Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Wow fellas, I'm going to follow up that Monster 3 Variant and those Remarkable #3 pages (page 3 is bananas, and it looks marvelous framed) with some battle scenes that I recently created. A guy reached out to me a few weeks ago saying that he had some turtle toys and that I had bought comics from his mother at a garage sale in the summer. He said he would shoot me over pics. I didn't think much of it. I ended up getting over 60 figures, almost all of them complete, a sewer playset, and a blimp. I stayed up until one in the morning that night, playing Here is how far I got. Happy holidays too all my turtle heads! Peace and love!

Nick Bridger's 9.8 is on ebay now.

I was interested in his Fantastic Four #52 9.8 he had listed and asked two questions and never got a response back. One was that if he could post a picture with the book and his user i.d. so I knew the book was in his possession. No response back. That book is currently listed on ComicLink with an asking price of $90K and bids up to $80K (I don't know how legit that is). The ComicLink listing scans/pics. are the same used for the eBay auction. I don't think the book is worth close to that price anymore and it's not going to go close to that on eBay. But you would think if you are selling a book that was going to go over $30K you would respond to questions. I then noticed there were a couple books listed after I messaged him. So I'm a bit skeptical. Good Luck to the bidders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woregul Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 $30100 for the TMNT 1 9.8 on eBay. A little low considering the recent 9.6 price ... or was the 9.6 too high. Oh well. It’s not for me to decide as both are way out of my price range. Congrats to buyer and seller! Parabellum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's listed at least 3 different copies: 0950071001, 1463959001 and the one that just ended for $30,100: 0202540001 (It's hard to make out it may be "75"in the middle there). The 0950071001 was listed as sold on Comic Connect on 4/1/16 for $27,222. Then Nick Bridger had it listed and sold on Ebay on 4/29/16 for $24,100. That doesn't make sense to me.

I asked him about this specific copy and here is his response: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either it's all a big ruse or, more likely, he just has a boatload invested in TMNT #1 1st print cgc 9.8's. Not a bad place to be IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subby1938 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Traded this ( tmnt 1 first print cgc 9.0 )and bunch of batman/detective keys to get my Amazing Fantasy 15 copy. It was so hard to let Tmnt go as I'm sure I'll never get another but I felt Spidermans first app was better move short and long term.

spracknetch23 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 I've toyed with this idea too as AF15 is on my most wanted list. But I just can't do it. Kudos to you though, that's a nice looking 2.0. Hope you kept the Donatello statue; it's so rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subby1938 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 I did I've got entire set and I can't see myself selling them . I loved that book but AF15 is getting unattainable at even low grades. ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spracknetch23 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 That's my favorite TMNT statue set. I have it too, and wouldn't sell it either, except maybe toward an AF15. As of now I only have an AF15 "back cover only". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
