I started collecting those comics 20 years ago. Very awesome hobby! I only need the Michelangelo micro series and I will have nothing but first prints.
What a great video. I like that you did some issues that are still early but not actually keys. The issue I've been looking for is #7 Second print. The variant Cover with Krang is pretty awesome. Also a 5th print of #1. The cover art is pretty cool as well. You have a nice collection. Again I appreciated you included some cool issues that weren't huge money but still very cool to TMNT collectors. Thanks
Yeah thanks for watching! So glad you enjoyed it. That Krang cover is really hard to find especially for a good price. I haven't seen one in the wild before haha. Since this video has done pretty well, I think I will do a follow up with my Archie books. Some of those have definitely creeped up in value recently lol
@@CantuComics I found an archie #1 this weekend in a little shop. Really great condition. $210. I passed. Hopefully the comic con I'm going to soon I will find #7 Krang variant. I think that one is going to be the next to off. That comic and #47 Space Usagi. Are the two I'm desparete to find. Thanks
@@TheChiefSteel Yeah that Space Usagi appearance blew up a few weeks ago. I was watching Comic Tom and he mentioned it and I was like, "Do I have that"??? Too bad it wasn't in my collection :(
@@CantuComics I think you should ad some b-roll and close up shots of the comics and pieces that you share. Otherwise, this is awesome. I'm shocked you didn't do this earlier HAHA. I LOVE IT!
@@MichaelHoang Yeah I definitely need more b-roll on the longer segments. I have wanted to do a channel for a while, just finally pulled the trigger :)
Manufacture flaws don't affect the grading that much unless its a very high 9.0+. For value, say yours grades a 9.4 and someone else's is also a 9.4 but their staples are closer to the spine, a buyer would probably buy theirs over yours because it's visually nicer overall. I would think that would be the only downfall.
I was there when the mutant ninja turtles came out, i was thinking, no one is gojng buy rhem, they look ridiculous, ninja turtkes ???? Are you kidding me ? Damn ! I was so WRONG. Now i wish i had bought that very 1st appearance issue.
