I've got to sing the praises of @Shadow, who was my Secret Santa this year.  I asked for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles anything.  He got me a best-of Splinter book along with a good mix of other 80's books right in the same vein as the TMNT from the same era, most of which I've never heard of.  I'm looking forward to reading them.  :cool:  He also got me a Splinter from the 80's Playmates toyline, which is a real blast from the past.  I had one many years ago, but it was played-with so much that it didn't look nearly as good as this one.  The weapons are still on the rack...it's practically new!

To me, the best thing of all was the card.  He put what looks to be a TON of work into the artwork in the card.  It looks absolutely terrific and I'll definitely be keeping it in my art portfolios.  I'm floored by the talent (and generosity) around here.

Thank you so much @Shadow(worship)  You've made this a very Merry Christmas for me. 

I'm happy you enjoyed them! I usually try and personalize the cards, some better than others... lol Merry Christmas!

I just opened my gift. It's long been a family tradition to open gifts on Christmas Eve.

A HUGE thanks to @Loading... for the 2 Strange Terrors PS Artbooks, and for the Belgium Chocolate (thumbsu

With stories like "Sword of the Vikings" this title looks to be right up my alley. :popcorn:

I am glad you are enjoying the books! The reprinting in these collected editions is exquisite. I never knew these pre code collections existed before and now know what to get my father in law for his birthday haha

Opened my gift on Xmas and was very pleased with the fun goodies inside! However, with all the hub-bub and family and cleanup, I must've misplaced the letter and I can't remember who sent it! I'm so sorry, but whoever sent this, I loved it!
