RAY FILLET Another great character heavy in the bathtub play sessions. In truth, I didn't have this 1st edition version seen but as an adult I can be a bit more picky. So there were 5 versions of this bad boy. These different printing show the gradual realization that Playmates made that making this color change Toy was expensive and so ultimately they took that feature away. - 1st version = "Awesome Mutant Color Change" starburst, Purple Chest with Red V. This is my AFA figure below. It let the kids know on the front and back that this guy changed color. Primarily done by dunking in water, he also changed color if he got too hot or too cold. How cool is that?! Spoiler Twinsies! I love this figure. It's one of the coolest from the original 1988-1992 line.https://tmnt-ninjaturtles.com/figures/playmates-teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-1988-1992-ray-fillet/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post CBass Posted January 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 3, 2021 Cowabunga fellow Shellheads! At the advice of @Icculus308win, I thought I'd share a couple fun little pics with y'all. The 9.0 is mine, The 9.4 is @Kalel38's and the big boy 9.8 is a buddies of mine here in Vegas. When he got the 9.8 back from CGC, I wanted to take my 1988 figures over and have a little fun with all of them.

Nothing since has been so true to early comic art and toys as these . I figured I’d share since some of these cool figures have been brought up Man that's just drool worthy! I've seen them before in a pic by somebody, but snap they look shadowy and deep and broodily mysterious! That's a snap worthy pic!

Subby1938 Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) They are very heavy and solidly made . They are not small either . The sideshow versions are a tad larger but these just look the part to me . You can display them separately or like this forming a dio. I wish more people could see these in person I have no doubt they would seek them out . I’m blessed to have them.

Subby1938 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Felt like taking some cool pics today . Bought this set of NECA turtles with box years ago for $ 100.00 because I thought they looked beautiful for figures.

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. Hopefully, now that you have it back in your collection you can sleep easy now, my friend. sorrenmj, ADAMANTIUM and Turtle 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those who don't venture into general, @Wolverinex was my Secret Santa in the gift exchange this year and he got me squared away with some great TMNT stuff, not the least of which was that sticker that I whined about here all those months ago.

I think I'm going to take a look in the book and see what ingredients I need. I'm pretty serious about trying that Crazy Corn and Bodacious Bean Pizza. The boys like corn and black beans, so I should have help eating it. There are also some turtle face pizzas (made mostly of pesto) that look fun!
