Yeah, but it's in the description. Would ComicConnect investigate the claim of the COA?

It's not from Peter's collection unless it says so on the label. Like mine from Kevin:










This book is for sale, btw for $2500

So, is it falsely advertised as one of Peter's copies? Or, did the previous owner possibly not go through the proper channels to get the book Verified?

There’s no way to tell without speculation. The book should have gone from Peter (or facilitator of Peter) to CGC directly for such notation on the label.

Man that is a nice book to have in 9.4... That error is not easy to come by either

I'm willing to guess the owner (mistakenly) thought the COA was good enough. Still a nice copy without the pedigree.

Also, cool error book, Myke. 👍🏼

Anybody can print a COA. I've got hundreds of COAs that came along with Peter Laird's toys off ebay. The difference is I have written email messages and documentation that come along with the provenance and source of where each item came from. That helps but it's not always a guarantee with the buyer at a later future date when the item comes up for sale.

@kaptainmyke I saw this & hit a mental block. Is this accurate/reasonable? Hell, with your collection I’d call this “early retirement planning.”

I would buy only the original four turtles with fan club flyer inserts to guarantee they are the soft head original releases
Post 850 IP   flag post
Collector BabaLament private msg quote post Address this user
Is there any way to identify the original soft-head turtles from the later moldings based on packaging?

Yes if you see a seam going down the middle of their heads they are not original soft heads

The money is in soft heads, and pop up display versions with the yellow star sticker on bubble

People also look to collect the "beaded nunchuk" versions of the 1988 Mikeys but I personally do not care or desire such figures I feel its hype over early editions of the accessories. Some accessories on tmnt figs can fetch huge dollars like Genghis Frog with the bagged grenades can fetch $2k or more
