Turtle Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I agree with everything that's been said so far. I wouldn't go so far as to call the seller a con man...maybe just an enthusiastic salesman. Stuff like that happens here all the time. However, like someone said, he is "trying to catch a lemming". Zero markup is correct. If it were a book I wanted, I'd bid as if there were no label error and resubmit at the earliest convenient time (on CGC's dime since it was their mistake). Errors from the printer sometimes equal higher desirability, but not errors on the label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEnglandGothic Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 You know I was aimlessly wandering around these boards today and realized in Moderns, the Locke & Key Appreciation Thread has more views than this one. How is that even possible with the success of the Turtles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Just got home from Dragon Con recently. It was my first time coming face to face with Kevin Eastman in over 3 years. All I can say is KEVIN EASTMAN IS THE MAN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I can say is KEVIN EASTMAN IS THE MAN! OK Adam, show off the goods! Did you ask him about the TMNT movie? When was the last time you saw Eastman? NYCC in our rookie witness in training years?

Turtle Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Just got home from Dragon Con recently. It was my first time coming face to face with Kevin Eastman in over 3 years. All I can say is KEVIN EASTMAN IS THE MAN! OK Adam, show off the goods! Did you ask him about the TMNT movie? When was the last time you saw Eastman? NYCC in our rookie witness in training years? Not the TMNT movie, but he seems pretty pumped about the new animated series. A few weeks ago I watched a few YouTube clips from the new series and I've got to say, I'm now looking forward to it when I wasn't before. And you're close...I met him at NYCC in '09 during those rookie witness days and I saw him a few months later during my first and only trip to SDCC. I haven't seen him since, so it's been over 3 years. I got nearly 30 books signed, many for my volume 1 registry set. I won't have much to show off until my books get back. Some are fast tracked, but most were not. I guess they'll be Christmas presents to myself. I started a small TMNT sketchbook at Heroes meant solely for artists who have worked professionally on the TMNT in some respect. Obviously, there are 2 pages up front reserved for Eastman & Laird. Here's page 1: I also will be finished the Eastman portion of a project I started back in 2009. I don't have a great picture of the new one, so I'll show it off when it comes back, but here are the other 3: Finally, big thanks to AndyBobo for sending me a cool surprise item. It arrived the day before I left, so I decided to take it with me. Thanks, Andy! I've got a few more items to scan. I'll post when I get a chance.

dupont2005 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 What makes that April exclusive? Is it just her costume color? I have one of the box sets of the turtles and it comes with all the stuff that the boarded figures came with. I almost bought the black and white version as well but someone flaked on an eBay sale and then the same guy outbid me on that set Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were other colors planned that never saw the light of day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
