The Last GREAT Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Collection?

[00:00:00] Speaker 1: Imagine spending your entire childhood collecting Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles toys. [00:00:03] Speaker 2: Brought in my childhood Ninja Turtle collection. [00:00:06] Speaker 1: Figures, vehicles, accessories, almost everything for almost 40 years. [00:00:12] Speaker 2: Complete scratch. To complete, I think the pronunciation is like Shogun Shope. Every dinosaur set complete. Tractor sets complete. Forgotten Warriors complete. It just goes on. [00:00:21] Speaker 1: To one day just let it all go. Because that's exactly what's happening today with this toy collector. It was almost a full set from 88 to 93. I was missing five figures. And I don't think the timing could be any more fitting. After introducing the original Ninja Turtles action figures in 1988, Playmates Toys is losing the license at the end of 2026. With Mattel taking over in 2027. So, as one chapter of Ninja Turtles toys history comes to an end, I thought this was the perfect time to revisit a toy collector closing a chapter of his own. And while it was worth thousands of dollars... It's a good amount. I'll let Ryan if he wants to discuss it or whatever. Something he said at the end reminded me why we collect these toys in the first place. Probably just leave it discreet at the moment for me. Because how do you put a price on your childhood? [00:01:13] Speaker 3: So, we're trying to make space for growing family. [00:01:16] Speaker 1: This is Toy Addicts. [00:01:22] Speaker 3: So, definitely recycled from the party van. With revamping, they changed the interior a little bit. And it has a little... [00:01:32] Speaker 4: The news van was complete, right? Yes. I have one and I'm real close. But then I realized I'm not real close. Because there's a lot of parts. I still need like four or five parts. [00:01:44] Speaker 2: And then this box right here is the dinosaurs. The little boxes. Dinosaurs, mini mutants, and the tractor sets. Just some of the bigger ones like that. [00:01:54] Speaker 4: Because I know on this, I don't have both. I can never do this because I don't have both speakers. And most people don't realize when they do the copter that they're always missing these little pieces. [00:02:04] Speaker 2: I probably am too on that one. I would have told you, but... I think everybody... That one's a little... [00:02:09] Speaker 4: If you look at everybody selling these and they say complete... Because they're like very small. It's little shark fins. [00:02:13] Speaker 2: And they look like this. [00:02:15] Speaker 4: Oh, so you already... You took those out and showed those? We didn't take them out. We just... You just looked at them through the salad container? I don't know. [00:02:22] Speaker 2: Ask Andy. He was doing that. [00:02:23] Speaker 4: I'm sitting on him in the back with just one piece. [00:02:26] Speaker 2: And the pieces are nice. He looks good too overall. Yeah, he's great. [00:02:31] Speaker 4: So then these are... [00:02:32] Speaker 2: Those look really good. Look how shiny. [00:02:37] Speaker 4: Well, it's probably more shiny if I get it out of the bag. So who's this? [00:02:49] Speaker 2: Shote? S-H-O-A-T-E? S-H-O-A-T-E, yeah. [00:02:53] Speaker 4: What does that mean? [00:02:55] Speaker 2: Well, he's a comic book guy. [00:02:56] Speaker 4: Well, we don't get this, right? [00:02:58] Speaker 5: No, those are the Forgotten Sewers. There's four of them. So there's those guys. [00:03:03] Speaker 4: And they all had little trophies? [00:03:04] Speaker 5: Yep. Yep. First place. [00:03:06] Speaker 4: They all got first place? Yep. They look really good. How does everybody win? Different events. That's how it works now. Oh. There you go. Okay. Everybody's a winner. There you go. All right. Yeah, no. I've never seen these. They got the save on the paint application because they... [00:03:21] Speaker 5: Check out the... [00:03:22] Speaker 4: Oh. [00:03:23] Speaker 5: The Thor Donatello. [00:03:25] Speaker 4: Is that a tree beard? [00:03:26] Speaker ?: Yeah. [00:03:28] Speaker 3: Oh, and it's got the silver version of accessories. Oh. [00:03:32] Speaker 4: Oh, that's cool. Yeah. [00:03:35] Speaker ?: Yeah. [00:03:36] Speaker 5: Yeah. [00:03:37] Speaker 4: Dude, the Howie Scream. [00:03:38] Speaker 5: That's the gatekeeper. Is that what he's called? [00:03:43] Speaker ?: Yep. [00:03:44] Speaker 3: The Forgotten Sewer. [00:03:46] Speaker 4: Is he Forgotten Sewer or no? [00:03:48] Speaker 3: I think so, right? He's got the trophy. [00:03:50] Speaker 4: He got first place. [00:03:52] Speaker 3: He won. [00:03:53] Speaker 4: He won in the sewer. He's cool. Oh, we have... Don't we have... [00:03:57] Speaker 3: Yep. [00:03:57] Speaker 4: We've definitely got some parts. Yeah, yeah. So then that opens up when he's in there? Yep. I don't want to open it because it's gold plastic, right? Yeah. [00:04:04] Speaker 3: Yeah, I wouldn't mess with anything. This shoot... I have no idea. [00:04:08] Speaker 4: We really haven't had... Gold plastic's a problem. So then we got the Universal Monsters. Were they all here? Yeah. Like the metal in the U? [00:04:17] Speaker 5: Here's the metal in the... [00:04:19] Speaker 4: Oh, right. Creature. Invisible man. I thought there was a problem. Yeah, he's still... Yeah, it's... No, no, right. Yeah, right there on the headband. Yep, I remember there. I remember that. [00:04:33] Speaker 3: So then we got all the Shogo ones. [00:04:35] Speaker 4: So now the ones that are tough for us, we're just looking at them quick because they're not as rare as the other ones that are in here. Yeah, these are cool. So you had, I guess, what is it? Both? [00:04:45] Speaker 5: Rhino Man. Oh, but yeah, both variants of the... [00:04:48] Speaker 4: The accessory colors? Is that... Yeah. Oh, you got two of him? [00:04:53] Speaker 5: Yeah. Ooh. Ooh. Those are different. All camouflage. Ooh. Black belt. [00:04:59] Speaker 3: Delta team done. Yep. It's the tan one that's the variant, though, right? Oh, so it's... Getting all the foliage is soaked up. [00:05:08] Speaker 4: So gray. One, two... So the staff is just different. Three, four, five, six. Oh, those are... Oh, no, we've had these before, right? I mean, they're all late. They're up and down. They're all labeled, though. Yeah. Wow. That makes it even easier. [00:05:29] Speaker 5: Monty Moose. [00:05:30] Speaker 3: Oh, we got some of the Toonie ones again. That's cool. I think... [00:05:33] Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought they were... Yeah, you got your movie turtles. [00:05:40] Speaker 5: So I got movie turtles. [00:05:44] Speaker 4: Oh, look. Another one. That's cool. We have that hand somewhere. Oh, have we had this one? No. [00:05:54] Speaker 5: Nope. We've never... I don't think we've ever had the skis. [00:05:56] Speaker 4: No. [00:05:57] Speaker 3: Yeah, we... Yeah, I know, I think... We might have the figure in the back, but not... [00:06:03] Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I don't recall seeing this one. [00:06:06] Speaker ?: Yep. [00:06:07] Speaker 4: Oh, those are cool. [00:06:09] Speaker 5: Those are generally always jacked when they're coming. [00:06:13] Speaker 3: That's cool. Every time we get this one, it does the same thing. The paint starts coming up on the apron. Or the... Not apron. The skirt. The apron O'Neil. Apron O'Neil. You're right. [00:06:27] Speaker 5: Dr. Bell. [00:06:28] Speaker 4: Glasses. Households. Oh, all right. Here's a... Yeah, we get it. [00:06:32] Speaker 5: Tracks. Yeah, I've always wanted to put out a set of the Olympic guys. Sergeant Bananans. [00:06:40] Speaker 4: We've done the troll ones, right? [00:06:42] Speaker 3: We've done the troll ones a few times. [00:06:43] Speaker 4: Oh, he's cool. Is this like... What was this? What is he? Oh, Calvary Leo. [00:06:52] Speaker 5: Look at that. I was close on him yesterday. Scale tail? Yeah. [00:06:56] Speaker 4: And then you weren't... [00:06:57] Speaker 5: And then I realized I wasn't. Because I needed the wrong gun. Because I was going to try to put him up. [00:07:01] Speaker 4: Because we go lower, we're going to have the less... Oh, does he got his playing cards? [00:07:06] Speaker 5: I know. Yeah. [00:07:08] Speaker 4: Nobody does. It's so small, dude. [00:07:10] Speaker 3: Never get them. [00:07:11] Speaker 4: Nobody has them. There's a Leo. AC turtle. [00:07:16] Speaker 5: He got like a... [00:07:17] Speaker 4: A little paper. That's cool. We had him out recently. No. No? [00:07:22] Speaker 5: I had everything for him. Got the bottom of a little... Well, we got it now. That's right. I was close. [00:07:29] Speaker 4: And then you realized you weren't. [00:07:30] Speaker 5: I didn't realize I wasn't. [00:07:31] Speaker 4: Can't do that. So then the rest of these will be your... [00:07:33] Speaker 5: Your core guys. Right. [00:07:35] Speaker 4: You're right, right. [00:07:37] Speaker 5: No white shirt. No white shirt. Never got that. [00:07:41] Speaker 4: Deal's off. [00:07:42] Speaker 5: Yep. [00:07:43] Speaker 4: We've never had this, right? We've never had as many slots. [00:07:46] Speaker 5: That's a big one. [00:07:47] Speaker 3: I thought we had it all. But then I realized we didn't have it all. [00:07:52] Speaker 4: See, see? This one we have. [00:07:53] Speaker 3: We have bad parts. We've had that. Yeah, this one's like one of the most common ones. Still good. [00:07:59] Speaker ?: I don't know. [00:08:00] Speaker 3: Do what now? [00:08:00] Speaker 5: The antenna's good, yeah. [00:08:02] Speaker 3: Yeah, the antenna's there. It's just thin. Yeah, it's just a little rough. It's always... [00:08:06] Speaker 2: I would say that's probably one of the roughest things in the collection class. [00:08:10] Speaker 4: This is hard to... This is why I don't do like, you know, places hang things in bags. You can't... You can't... You can't... [00:08:17] Speaker 5: You gotta set it up and look at it. [00:08:18] Speaker 4: Well, you can't tell because you get glare and angles. But yeah, no, these have tons of parts. I almost need to, like, take pictures of all these and then to document it instead of struggling on the internet. [00:08:33] Speaker 3: Well, I mean, we have that one site, but it's so hard to touch. Oh, yeah, that's nice. That turtle, yeah. It's so old. [00:08:39] Speaker 4: I know we got him. We just probably don't have the shovel or the pickaxe, right? [00:08:43] Speaker 3: We have that tractor, but I think we have this, the weapons for this. [00:08:50] Speaker 4: Yeah, we have this back there. [00:08:51] Speaker 3: Yeah, but we don't have him. Right. I don't think the bird's on it either. [00:08:56] Speaker 4: Oh, you're right. Yeah. Yeah, the little hood ornament. All right, so then here we go. I don't know. Here, I'll hand them to you. [00:09:12] Speaker 3: I've been handed this. These are cool, though. [00:09:16] Speaker 4: I just think it's almost like you've got to see it good. You have to take everything out, but I don't. Oh, that's cool. Have we had that one? [00:09:26] Speaker 3: No. Well, all right, we have this van missing this piece several times and never had the motorcycle. That's great. [00:09:36] Speaker 4: Yeah, these guys are great. So, isn't it in the kitchen, we have a van that size, but it's like a little shoe shine brush or something? [00:09:47] Speaker 3: Yeah, two of them's like stinks. It's got bristles on the bottom. Oh, the brush. Yeah, yeah. [00:09:51] Speaker 4: It's a van that size and it's got a brush. It's a cuticle brush. So, this one we should open then, right? Yeah. So, we've never had this one. Do we even have that? No. Oh, so we've had her. Yeah, well. [00:10:04] Speaker 5: We've had her with like no weapons. [00:10:06] Speaker 4: Yeah. Oh, here, you hold that. I can't hold it. [00:10:08] Speaker 5: We never had the dinosaur. [00:10:09] Speaker 3: We just got a little, little TMNT tattoo here. [00:10:14] Speaker 4: TMNT. You're branded. Dino-mite. Oh, wow. [00:10:18] Speaker 3: But she's sitting in a ribcage. Yep. Weird. [00:10:21] Speaker 4: Even better. So, look at these parts. You ever seen these? [00:10:25] Speaker 3: Nope. [00:10:28] Speaker 4: Yeah, look at those little tiny. Yeah. And they're two different ones, not even the same stars. [00:10:33] Speaker 3: Yeah, all those stars or anything. [00:10:35] Speaker 4: But it's not like they even gave you two of the same. They're different. [00:10:37] Speaker 3: When I started my news career five years ago, I never thought I'd be riding a dinosaur. [00:10:43] Speaker 4: Oh, that's right. You had a bunch of carded Aprils. It's four. Yeah. [00:10:46] Speaker 2: They're four carded. They don't have much value. [00:10:49] Speaker 4: Yeah, right? Every... [00:10:50] Speaker 2: They're all about like 20, 30. [00:10:52] Speaker 4: Yeah, it's the weirdest thing. [00:10:54] Speaker 2: It doesn't matter if it's loose or on card, really, for some of them. It's the Dino. [00:10:58] Speaker 4: Well, this is cool. I've never seen this. [00:11:02] Speaker 5: Oh, now I've got to go this way? [00:11:06] Speaker 4: Oh, right on the light. Yeah. That's cool. No, I've never seen this. See, I don't collect turtles, and I'd probably keep this. Play very rough with the toys. [00:11:25] Speaker 3: You'll probably hear about it in the comments. You see them kick me? You see them kick me? Oh, my God. Did it again? God. Turtle tube. [00:11:34] Speaker 5: Turtle tube. Party tube. [00:11:35] Speaker 3: Other turtle sickle. [00:11:37] Speaker 5: E-slinger. [00:11:39] Speaker 3: Bunch of nonsense. More nonsense. [00:11:42] Speaker 5: Turtle tugboat. [00:11:42] Speaker 3: Got a tub. [00:11:45] Speaker 5: A real ninja scooter. [00:11:48] Speaker 3: Doesn't that shoot egg rolls? Like, isn't that what these things are supposed to be, is like egg rolls? [00:11:52] Speaker 5: I don't know. I thought they were like little, I mean, lack of term, little arrows. [00:11:58] Speaker 3: Well, yeah. Yeah, they've got the arrow on the back, but I thought they were like little egg rolls. [00:12:05] Speaker 5: Yep. [00:12:06] Speaker 3: That's a little disgusting. Oh, there's the windshield. Yep. That's always gone. [00:12:09] Speaker 5: The Budart raft. These are awesome. I like these things. I'm feeling full of water. Play some basketball. [00:12:17] Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. We were just trying to build this the other day. [00:12:23] Speaker 5: Yeah. [00:12:25] Speaker 3: Uh-oh. I don't see the horn. Remember? There's like a bullhorn thing. Bullhorn. And then there's one of the headlights is gone. Deal's off. [00:12:37] Speaker 5: One rocket. [00:12:38] Speaker 3: One rocket. Oh, man. [00:12:40] Speaker 5: That got the flag, dude. [00:12:41] Speaker 3: Call yourself a turtle. I dread this one. It's painted that no-cell blue color, too. Somebody's got to want it, right? I don't think ours has this. You need to make popcorn in the back? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, this one's always a hard sell. I don't know why. Let's do. Oh, we got the cones. Oh, missing. [00:13:04] Speaker 5: Oh, up, up, up, up, up, up, up. You got one. Missing one. [00:13:10] Speaker 3: Mmm. [00:13:13] Speaker 5: All right. [00:13:14] Speaker 4: The goal is to... [00:13:15] Speaker ?: Well... [00:13:15] Speaker 3: Unless it fell out. Yeah, I mean, that looks... That's pretty good. Yeah, pretty good. I like the dune buggy. [00:13:26] Speaker 5: You like the buggy? [00:13:27] Speaker 3: I don't know why. It is kind of silly looking, but... [00:13:30] Speaker ?: I don't know. [00:13:31] Speaker 3: I like... I don't know. I like building it. And we've had one in the back for years now. I thought we were going to build it, but then I couldn't build it. We just don't have this piece. This top... Yeah, the top roll cage. But, yeah, I like this. It has surfboards, mirrors. Let's see. Did his mirrors get the stickers? Did he not get the mirrors? Oh, no. Wait, here they are. They're holding it in. [00:13:55] Speaker ?: Yep. Yep. [00:13:57] Speaker 3: Yep. So, if you look on this side, there's a very beautiful turtle lady. [00:14:02] Speaker 5: You want to lease it, maybe? [00:14:03] Speaker 3: Right in the mirror. It could be. [00:14:05] Speaker 5: Could be. [00:14:05] Speaker 3: Could be. [00:14:06] Speaker 5: The best part is how you can drive it and not see out of the windshield. [00:14:09] Speaker 3: That's true. Yeah. [00:14:11] Speaker 5: Sir, for the battering ram. Time. This is the most broke vehicle ever. Uh-oh. At least the... [00:14:18] Speaker 3: Yeah, no, it looks good. It's got the belt. It's got good stickers. [00:14:23] Speaker 5: Strings still attached. [00:14:25] Speaker 3: Yeah. [00:14:26] Speaker 5: Knucklehead. [00:14:28] Speaker 3: Is that Casey Jones? It is. The third movie with the catapult. Yep. I think we... Did we get that one? Yeah. That's the first time we had it. This is the first time we've had it loose. [00:14:39] Speaker 5: If you're injured, why would you become a samurai? [00:14:41] Speaker 3: That's what I said earlier. Why? That's what I was telling Tyler, and he's like, no, they've ascended now. I'm like, what are you talking about? Ninja's the best. [00:14:50] Speaker 5: Yeah. [00:14:54] Speaker 3: I think it's because he likes that one. He doesn't want to admit that it's a little funny. [00:14:59] Speaker 5: That's true. [00:15:01] Speaker 3: He doesn't want to admit that. He don't know. [00:15:02] Speaker 5: Nope. [00:15:04] Speaker 3: Ooh. [00:15:04] Speaker 5: Pizza. [00:15:06] Speaker 3: I crave pizza. [00:15:07] Speaker 5: So maybe this is the bar. [00:15:09] Speaker 3: No more. [00:15:11] Speaker 5: No, that's not. [00:15:12] Speaker ?: That's not. [00:15:13] Speaker 5: That was the one that he loves. That's not. It's like Christmas Eve. [00:15:16] Speaker 3: It's the turtle salad bowl. [00:15:19] Speaker 5: Fruit salad for everyone. [00:15:20] Speaker 3: For all your Caesar salad needs. [00:15:23] Speaker 5: That's right. [00:15:24] Speaker 3: Doesn't this have a turtle head thing in there? No, I guess not. Oh, there it is. Yeah. It turns into a huge turtle. Mutating vehicle. Foot cruiser. Foot cruiser. [00:15:43] Speaker 5: You know what that is? [00:15:45] Speaker 3: Yeah. [00:15:47] Speaker 5: It's the Dome of Terror. [00:15:50] Speaker 3: Another one in there. [00:15:51] Speaker 5: Oh, that's good. [00:15:52] Speaker 3: Yeah. [00:15:53] Speaker 5: That one's tougher to do. [00:15:55] Speaker 3: Yeah, we haven't done that one in a while. [00:15:56] Speaker 5: Yeah. Does it have the little net doors? Yep. It does. It does. Yep. That one's cool. Well, the other road. I guess no cord. Didn't get a, yeah, it got a rubber. [00:16:24] Speaker 3: Yeah. [00:16:26] Speaker 5: Yeah, got the sticker flags though. Yeah, that's the shredder mobile. [00:16:30] Speaker 3: So, this one, it's tough. It gets, it has breakage issues with the hubcaps. These tend to break very easily. This is usually gone, the sight. I mean, most of it's always gone. Yeah. So, is that, yeah, look. Oh, geez. Yeah. Yep. Broken peg. Yep. Oh, yeah. [00:16:54] Speaker 5: Here we go. [00:16:58] Speaker 3: Yep. It's the Ninja Turtles Sky Striker. [00:17:03] Speaker 5: It's the squirt smoking bomber. Because on the commercial, they show the smoke bubbles dropping. Right. [00:17:14] Speaker 3: But, yeah. We had one of these that felt like it took forever to sell. And everybody's like, oh, cool. And then just leave. [00:17:22] Speaker 5: Well, I mean, it's, it is what it is, right? [00:17:26] Speaker 3: Yeah. [00:17:26] Speaker 5: Well, we got another sewer layer set. [00:17:29] Speaker 3: Another sewer, another technodrome. Which is very cool. But, we do have a surplus of them. [00:17:32] Speaker 5: Oh, this is, this is good. We never get the parts for this guy. [00:17:37] Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, the sub. Yeah. [00:17:38] Speaker 5: I like this one. Yeah. [00:17:41] Speaker 3: Cool. [00:17:42] Speaker 5: Yep. Well, I think we're still missing a piece, but. Hmm. It's. I don't remember the piece. Yeah. I mean, it's, every piece of this is a problem. [00:17:53] Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. Yeah. The bombs. Yeah. That was the problem. The bombs. [00:17:57] Speaker 5: These break off. The clips. Yep. The wheel. But, yeah. No. Very good. Very workable, for sure. Yep. Spotlight. [00:18:06] Speaker 3: So, yeah. A lot of this we've already seen in photos. I think we're just visually verifying stuff now, right? Oh. That's turned. [00:18:16] Speaker 5: Yep. [00:18:17] Speaker 3: Hmm. [00:18:19] Speaker 2: I know this is kind of odd, but I would like to thank my family. You don't have to put this in there or anything, but my family buying them when I was a child, like, that was a big collection. So, my grandparents' parents, like, my great aunt, any family that ever bought me any of it. They all. I had nothing to do with it. [00:18:35] Speaker ?: They eventually. [00:18:35] Speaker 2: I was just playing with them. So, they took care of all that. So, every piece. [00:18:40] Speaker 4: But, you took care of it as well. [00:18:40] Speaker 2: So, I went back through, put them all together. They, like, the accessories were in a big bin.
