Popular Post R Colvin Posted June 18, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 18, 2022 (edited) Have you run into the TMNT Authorized Training Manual Michaelangelo #2 with the ink error? I picked this up a while back. I will put the error copy and original side-by-side. I was excited to add this to my collection.

This is one error cover I never picked up during my time collecting. I think it's pretty rare to find. Nice pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's also another version of this error where the magenta color is missing. I've been trying to find a copy for years - still looking. Both error copies are really tough to find.

R Colvin Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 It seems to me that the TMNT #1 3rd Printing is selling for almost as much or more than the 2nd Printing. Am I right about this? I am amazed how TMNT #1 3rd Printing seems to be blowing up in price. I am wondering why this might me. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronty Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 a quick look at ebay listings doesn't seem to bear that out, at least not in asking prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R Colvin Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Thanks for setting me straight on that! On closer examination, 2nd printing is still selling for considerably more than 3rd. I remain amazed that the 3rd printing has blown up in price like it has. Bronty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subby1938 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 It has gone up considerably as the other printings are getting out of reach . The ultra high grade 3rd prints have disappeared it’s a lot 6.0-9.2 range for sale now . R Colvin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hulksdaddy1 Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Back from CGC today. Thought it had a shot at 9.6, but CGC is "toight" lately. Still a beauty. ADAMANTIUM, cgcsketcherz, sorrenmj and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Jesse-Lee Posted June 26, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 26, 2022 Last year for Father's Day, my wife and kids got me a "Cowabundle" from Kevin Eastman's store. It's 6 Vol 1 Mirage TMNT books (1 of which is signed) and 6 TMNT Adventures books. It was an awesome gift, and I got some cool stuff. Right after I got it, I saw it was sold out on the website. Recently, I saw they were back in stock, so I decided to get one for myself. It's $54 after shipping costs for 12 books, so I figured it was a good deal. I thought I might get some doubles from when I got it last year, and I was right. Based on the doubles, I don't think I'd do it again, but I think it was still worth it based on what I got. If I'd never gotten one before, it would be 1000% worth it. Here's what I got this time: Signed by TMNT artist Michael Dooney with a small turtle sketch This was a nice surprise - the later issues (series' last issue was 62) had fairly low print runs. First appearance of Shadow Jones as a baby. Happy to get this one too as I didn't have it - first appearance of Mondo Gecko oakman29, Turtle, sorrenmj and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Turtle Posted July 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 2, 2022 Here's another Hero Initiative book I picked up recently. There are a lot of off-beat takes on the turtles out here. I find myself often drawn to the ones where the brothers look more "turtle" than they're usually portrayed. Michael Zulli's take comes to mind. This one is by Max Fiumara: Jesse-Lee, sorrenmj, cgcsketcherz and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
