Some sweet Turtles items. That Mondo figure is very cool. Clearly, you're all about the Turtles, @kaptainmyke, as a collector & dealer. I'd love to know your history with the TMNT. What made you such a fan? Only in the last few years have I come to appreciate the Turtles. More specifically, Eastman & Laird's Story. How they put everything they had financially into this obscure idea & turned a small Indie book into a phenomenon. But what was it about the Turtles that caught your attention? |

I grew up with the original cartoon and I had all the original toys. Was so mad when my parents threw my toys away when I was away at college. Had Turtles, GIJoes, Thundercats, Silverhawks, so so sad. | ||

That's crazy! |

So going back to the original post and my apologies if this has been answered before but where did you get the cases for the figures? I have been wanting some for some of my other collections (I have some TMNT toys, Strawberry Shortcake dolls, Care Bares, and a ton of 80s toys) and never was able to find something good to keep them in | ||

Yep just measure your stuff with a tape measure to the nearest 1/8 and they can make custom boxed cases or slide rail cases. | ||

I'm confused, how can a 9.6 blue label be signed a sketched? | ||

CGC basically gave this a qualified grade but with blue label. Shenanigans! | ||

@kaptainmyke I get that they were not witnessed, but this is a special case of provenance that deserves recognition. By using a blue label they only serve to confuse the secondary market. Since they don't have a VSP program, should have been yellow. imo | ||
