sofistocat Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Wouldn't it just be graded under the magazine tier? Edit: Oh, right. CGC may not grade this because it was hand-stapled I believe? They tend to stay away from books like that because it's hard to tell authetics from fakes. Sadly yes, FML Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan. Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 That's the same problem with Gobbledygooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sofistocat Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Yes, they did mention that about Gobbledygook too. Which is a bummer because I would love to see this get slabbed as a "Variant" cover: (The book exists, but it's not mine. I figured it would be a visual treat and if you look off to the top, you'll see the phalanges of Kevin Eastman. The actual owner of this book) So I guess my BF will stay raw...

spracknetch23 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 6th printing had a softcover and a limited hardcover edition. I believe the HC edition was limited to 500 copies. Not sure about SC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pubmonkey Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 RE: the TMNT/ASM 121 trade I would say the person who ends up with the TMNT #1 is the better off of the two. It has more growth potential even in a lower grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sofistocat Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 No bueno for the die-hard fans, but the bean counters are loving it. This movie is not about bringing fans back to any realm of nostalgia, it's about making money, like EVERYTHING ELSE... I don't read the new stuff, but this is far from what Mirage was about. I'm OK with all the changes being made because I have no plans to see the movie. This will be seen via my bootleg dvd guy... if that. If it weren't for the colored bandanas, who could distinguish the 4? Honestly don't see what all the fuss is about over the movie. Seems most people have judged this based on thier views/memories of the franchise. We are all different and think differently, twins excluded. The owners of TMNT don't care about anything beyond annual revenue and quarterly reports, FACT. I've read so many opinions that are way too emotional, why are people getting so emotional over the inevitable? It' a f'in movie that will be very different from anything we know. KE, nor PL had any input and it will show. The only thing I question is who the primary marketing base is for the movie? The turtles seem distant from the IDW vol. 5 counterparts and very far from any Nickelodeon characters. Was it one of those Michael Bay moments where he threatened to walk off, similar to his Samsung follie at CES, had he not been given complete creative control? Who knows, and furthermore, who cares? Michael Bay wanted Raph to have a wave cap... becuase he's gonna have a caribbean accent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
