Here's the updated pictures of my room/collection as of today.
These are the scripts for the original TMNT movies. TMNT 1, I bought online. TMNT 2 was a gift from a friend (This script was used during filming with all of it's notes in it), and TMNT 3 was a gift as well though was not used on set. The animation cel in the image has it's original back ground art to it. The thing behind the TMNT 2 script is an autograph picture of the Tour Turtles that I got in 1992, yes the glass in the frame is broken.
This image is on my dresser, it's the area hardest to keep neat, as my cat likes to jump up here to look at herself in the mirror. The buttons in front of the tour bus is a set of TMHT pins from England that I won on ebay years ago.
This is looking up a bit towards my bed from the dresser. Here you'll see some press release photos framed on the wall from TMNT 3, on the desk you'll see portfolio books. The one standing up has autograph photos of people I've met, the top one laying down is sketches from TMNT artist, under that there's two really big ones that have original comic book art, from Mirage, Archie and Image comics (mainly Image). On top of the portfolio book standing up is an animation cel of Leonardo.
This picture is looking away from the dresser into the room. You can see my computer desk, with both computers turned on, my tv set up, where I keep my shirts, and animation cels on the wall. On the ground I used one of the new TMNT-L blankets as a throw rug. This will not always be there, but I felt it helped give the room a little character for the time being.
On top of my entertainment stand. Wanted to keep it simple this time, so mainly got the statues up there, the combat cold cuts, and a few food items like a plate, bowl, cup, spoon and lunch box.
Here's what's near Usagi at the top of the entertainment stand. The main thing here that I got out for a reason is the paper that came with the Scratch T-Shirt, incase the topic comes up I would like to show this paper. A good nod to Jake and showing the efforts that Mirage has put in to help him.
This is where I keep my shirts, seems a bit odd though my closet is stuffed with boxes so I haven't been able to hang them up in awhile and the dresser I have is to small for all these shirts. I also enjoy that they're all TMNT, so I don't mind them being on display. The top back corner shirt is the "Jake Black" fund raiser shirt that came out last year...
http://www.tmnt-l.com/index.php/topic,4457.0.html I'll be wearing one of mine tomorrow for the interview.
My bed set up, here we have mostly the normal stuff my three pillows (top one use to be my Grandma's) though the pillow cases have changed since I last posted pictures of them. The top one use to be on one of the other pillows, though the other two pillow cases were a Christmas gift from
Mily last year, both really cool Michelangelo pillow cases that match. Hanging up as a back ground piece is a Production Team Shirt from TMNT 3, these were sold at Turtle Con 92, it's autographed by the artist that were at the convention and now a few people who worked on the movie.
Looking from my desk towards the hall way... the display case hasn't really been changed. I did add Fugitoid into the picture near the Neca TMNT toys on the third shelf down. I have the autograph shirt hanging from the display case, oh and a Raphael Snuggie over a walking stick leaning up against the closet door.
Looking from my desk towards the Dresser and Hall. You can see clearly here that my stuff in the hall isn't all TMNT anymore, as I've been hanging up more of my anime stuff out there. I do love TMNT, but I have other interest as well... there's a wall scroll you can see hanging up which is from Fullmetal Alchemist which is one of my favorite animes.
Looking from the closet door to the bed. This picture shows the new set up on the top bunk. It seems to be my normal type of set up, a bunch of TMNT dolls and toys. Not much different than what I did before.
This is the display in the hall way right outside my bedroom door. That's Miki's microwave she left here, figured I'd use it while watching over it for her
, any how the choice out here is a mixture of things I enjoy. Two of my most prized collection pieces right near each other, the Leonardo head from TMNT 3, right next to an original art work page from Mirage Volume 1, #10. Around the base of the Leo head is a bunch of normal turtles, crystals, plastics, rubber, and glass, and there's a Neca Leo toy standing next to the head band. I left out some anime toys in this area, since this is normally my anime display table. I got a handful of Naurto, Fullmetal Alchemist, and a gaint Inuyasha. I also put some of the rare TMNT toys out here from Scratch to an original April O'Neil out of package.
My walls in my hall way have not been really changed much... I'm leaving up the anime stuff, just too much work to take it down. The only thing I did do was fill in a blank where a TMNT poster fell down from, I put up a Next Mutation piece which was signage used at the Words and Pictures Museum for their TMNT display back in 1997.
Last of the pictures I'm sharing here today, is the display hall picture. Not as nice as it was set up for VH1, but than again I'm not pulling out all any of my collection that is put away this time, so this is all stuff that's been around my room. This time the display hall is mainly back packs, some books and other items... including a first print Palladium RPG TMNT book, a few magazines from out of country, a few back packs from out of country, boot leg TMNT toys, and some Turtle Toys from out of country. Three signs in this hall is from the TMNT 25 Tour, including that big one at the end of the hall, it was used in NYC, PA and MI. Off to the left you can sort of see a yellow and green sign that was used for the ATA stops with the Turtle Bus. There's another sign to the right (which is not in this picture) from the TMNT Foot Auditions in CA, which was autographed by a few of the judges.
Well that's all for now, hope everyone enjoys seeing what I did this time with this crazy collection.
