Already broke 10k, lol that was quick.  Clearly not a comic person with how they flattened and scanned it 🙄

If you look at their other listings, they've done that with most of the comics, which are all Turtles books incidentally. I've never done a pressing, and don't completely understand it if I'm being honest, but certainly this book could use it.

In the listing description the seller mentioned it could use a press. One would think that a person who knows about pressing would also know not to flatten a book out in a scanner. Especially a 10k+ book.

With a recent ebay purchase, I may have completed a set I've been casually working on for some time now.  I collect TMNT #1 cover homages and if you've looked up TMNT stuff on ebay, you're probably at least somewhat familiar with Do You Pooh?  They basically take Winnie the Pooh characters and put them into homages of classic comic covers.  These TMNT ones don't come up for sale terribly often, mostly because the print runs are minuscule.  Luckily, not too many people are out there looking for these either. 

Standard Edition 4/25

Chromium Edition AP 4 (for the purposes of keeping my sanity, I'm not making a distinction between Artists Proofs (AP) and regular numbered copies.  They are all the same to me and NOT different variants)

I don’t know either my man. 
(I bought a 9.6 about a year before that for $460 rings a bell....but no help nowadays. 

I would put them somewhere around the range of the #3 NYCC variant value.  Not a mainstream book for the casual collector but a “must have” for a TMNT fan.

That book is so hard to find in 9.8. @Icculus308win Maybe if you get tired of your copy, you can pass it along to me. LOL. I'm stuck now at 56 of 62 issues of Vol. 1 in 9.8.  😎🐢

 

@Racerboy1 Congrats on the recent Heritage sale and thanks for helping me out with my collection as well!

Ah yes thanks. It worked out well. I’m keeping my other gold copy. 😎

This finished today on eBay, totally blown away (yet again) with TMNT winning bids

Yikes. Yet a 1st Print #1 CGC 9.6 can't pull half that.  

It's a cool cover.  April is sure busty.
