Ryan. Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 In celebration of TMNT Day, Jetpack Comics is selling TMNT Funbags* for $50 and $100 tiers, which are mystery boxes full of TMNT books and other merch. I bought a $100 one mostly because I'm bored and opening the box should kill three minutes. *teehee Miamiknight3434 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan. Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Here's my Funbag take. The TPBs and some of the variants I'll hang onto. The rest of the books I'll move along. The two books I was happiest to find were the Ultimate Collection Vol 3 since I don't have that one, and the orange error variant of the Jetpack edition of IDW issue 1. cgcsketcherz, Icculus308win and ADAMANTIUM 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan. Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 I also recently picked this up from Steve Lavigne. A metal print of his TMNT 1 homage. I own the blue line OA for this image so I had to grab the metal print. ADAMANTIUM, Turtle, cgcsketcherz and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eselrod Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Unpacked a box of early 90s garbage mostly but found this random TMNT sticker in there. Anyone know what this is from? I bought pretty much any TMNT in that era so could be from a toy or book. Searches on eBay and Google came up empty. Measures about the size of a trading card. I’m sure the artwork was used elsewhere cgcsketcherz and ADAMANTIUM 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was also used as the box art for the first Gameboy game, "Fall of the Foot Clan" (1989 or 90?). cgcsketcherz, Turtle and eselrod 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure the artwork was used elsewhere I KNOW THIS ONE! From childhood (so memories can be fuzzy), I'm almost certain this sticker was included in the cassette version of the 1990 movie soundtrack. I remember I saved it for a while because I thought it was cool. Then we went to visit some family and it happened to be my cousin's birthday. When he saw the sticker and said that he liked it, my parents insisted that I give it to him. I reluctantly complied and watched him peel it off and slap it crookedly on his shirt. I thought I was over it, but maybe I'm not. sorrenmj, eselrod, ADAMANTIUM and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listened to it too! haha, but I think that I got the cassette but didn't want to "open it" haha, so I got out my dad's speakers (with my dad's help because I'm under 10 or so) and played the movie and used my radio to record the song during the credits...... I was going to memorize the lyrics and be so cool at school! sorrenmj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pubmonkey Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 a 9.8 #7 2nd print has landed on the moon: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Teenage-Mutant-Ninja-Turtles-7-CGC-9-8-NM-MT-B-W-2nd-Print-Krang-Variant-1-1989/133427878041?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 There's a really good breakdown of the Krang/Utrom appearances here: https://tmntcomics.wordpress.com/2016/07/21/1st-appearance-of-krang-in-comics/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pubmonkey Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Looking through the seller's history it shows several sales of #7 2nd print CGC 9.6 at around $50 each time. I wonder what sent the 9.8 into the upper stratosphere? there are 16 9.8 graded copies so it is not "super rare"... Also noted is this copy appears in the TMNT volume 1 competitive set: https://comics.www.collectors-society.com/WCM/ComicView.aspx?PeopleSetComicID=1157390 ...but not sure if owner is seller or 'prospective' buyer when it was added on June 7.

Turtle Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 My best guess is someone found a high-grade stack and sent them in for grading, releasing them one at a time. The early 2nd print regular size issues are notoriously tough to find, but the 9.8 copies of the #7 came seemingly out of nowhere. There were 0 on census for many years. Good for the seller. He was the winner of that bidding war. I'd expect the next one to go for significantly less. ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
