So cool to finally see this project starting to unveil! I've bought quite a few MIB/MOC vintage TMNT toys just to get nice vac-metal, flocking, soft goods, stickers etc. for display. Gotta admit that cutting the tape or ripping the bubble always feels like committing a crime. 😅

As a new collector this video is a great cautionary tale to me of not going too far down the rabbit hole of collecting line variants! But, boy, it sure is neat! Great work!

A mint in box vehicle that isn’t actually mint or hasn’t got great paint applications is certainly a scary thought. That is insane. Luckily I don’t primarily collect sealed stuff but I do have some.

Wow... Broken in the sealed box.... That's way more scary than a horror movie! Can't imagine if I purchased a sealed box for high price, then later you discover that's a part broken/snapped inside.... (Also this one of the reason I prefer to collect loose figures/vehicles with complete accessories, won't want to get sealed box which you can't see inside)

Secret... ...I'm not even sure how long it's been since I figured it out. 1 or 2 years, I actually made a comment on the video I figured it out on. I'm going to grab this one too. When the first wave of Turtles came out I was very into Transformers and then all of a sudden we all had Turtles. I'm still way into Transformers but there is a spot for cartoon-accurate Turtles.

You would know about variants way better than me. You're the expert. But for me a variant is a deliberate difference in paint. Not a slightly different shade of the same color. To me, that can be chalked up to the factory running out of a specific color and substituting it for the run. A variant to me is when there are two specifically different versions, like Ray filet.

As a collector exiting the hobby, for the most part, variants annoyed me and I paid them little attention. As for the MIB stuff, I realized that my collection was breaking down and would eventually be more and more broken pieces.

i've been looking high and low for giant TMNT the original ones, and here you have a box filled with them, and no one bats an eye.. Heard over in your place those go for what? 50 bucks? Those giant figures plus getting centurions, might be the last thing i want to collect myself and end it with those. if i had time i'd hop on a plane, and come by to just pick 4 of those up xD Becuase neighter of those ar available here that much. Also, secret project? a TMNT action figure photo book? just like the previous MOTU one you did? NO? your hints didn't work, you are like a steel trap.

What is your opinion on replacing parts for vehicles and weapons with 3d printed replacements to make a vintage "complete loose" again? I have recently acqired vintage 1977 Star Wars and OG Mirage TMNT figures myself and am embarking on a journey myself. Any tips of cleaning vintage action figures and for example a 1979 Millennium Falcon?
