rich_TMNT Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 I used to own this book It has made its way to a new home ** Turtlemania Gold #6 front & back pics omitted ** Congrats on the sale man! Congrats as well to the new owner. This is one book I've sure always wanted but just is so far out of reach price-wise. This and the #4 Gold you snagged were truly EPIC finds....stuff of my Turtle-collecting dreams! There are still two copies out there somewhere unaccounted for (#5 & 10). Until they are located, I hold out hope that I'll come across one of them in some long-forgotten back-issue bin for $5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gump24601 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Hopefully a #1 9.8? I'm still deciding if I bite the bullet on the NECA TMNT arcade figures from this year's SDCC (I used to play the arcade to death back in my youth) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nriccijr Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 There's something that just bugs me about those figures. It might be the way the pixels were put on a 3D figure. I've been trying to like them but I just don't. I love the display and idea though and I'm glad NECA is back making figures. I think I'll go for the 1/4 Raphael....those look fantastic for the price!

Turtle Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I'm with ya...I'm probably going to go for the set of 4 1/4 figures NECA is putting out. They look great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish the diorama set was also for sale but I believe it was a one off for the con. Speaking of a Gold Turtlemania, how many schmeckles should I be saving for? (if the chance to own one ever arrives) I haven't see any others pop up for sale of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nriccijr Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Shellback is closing end of October. I am quite sad but not totally surprised. I'm amazed he stayed open this long. Maybe if the store was in Portland or Portsmouth it could have survived. I have a feeling this is the end of any PL appearances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if the store was in Portland or Portsmouth it could have survived. I have a feeling this is the end of any PL appearances. Yeah, I saw the post and was pretty sad to hear it. It's actually the first place where I got to meet PL in person and that was only by a stroke of luck. I just happened to be there when PL dropped in...super-cool. But I'm glad I got to visit there twice though. You're right, this seems like the only public place where PL was a regular (whether FCBD or otherwise). Without it, might be hard-pressed to get a PL autograph ever again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurtszick Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 I was planning to go next FCBD... but I guess I need to figure out how to get there before the close in October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
