“I don’t think that was ever included in any style guide but was a piece Ryan .. did for use either on a TMNT Adventures or Mutanimals letters page (and never printed) or that he did for fun or for me. Foggy memory… but it’s one of those three scenarios. Pretty sure anyway! What year? I’d say somewhere in the 1990-92 range. ”

Steve Murphy

 

 

“I remember it, but not what it was for. It’s very early because I used the head from the very first drawing of Man Ray.

Maybe it was going to be used in the Archie book.”

FISHFACE

Shredder’s Underworld Underwater Thug

A thug with no equal, Fishface was once Xever, a street urchin recruited by the Foot Clan for his incredible criminal skills; Mutated by the Kraang, this crook’s become even more crooked, thanks to his hybrid body
Forced to rely on powerful, robotic legs and an external, water-breathing rig. Fishface may be a “fish out of water,” but that doesn’t stop him from being the Turtles’ most cutthroat enemy

Tara Toy Corp. :: "TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES" - COLLECTORS CASE i (( 1988 ))

☣ ☣

approx. 10 x 12″, 4″ depth

☣ ☣

–>> One of two Turtles collector cases made by Tara i know of. The slightly larger 1990 “DELUXE” TMNT case boasts holding 20 figures and has more familiar Lavigne/Brown style guide art decor.

Tara Toy Corp. :: "TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES" - COLLECTORS CASE iv (( 1988 ))This one boasts holding 12 figures & accessories, but i guess that’s theoretically true depending on the size of the figs & how many weapons and such are crammed into the 2 brittle, plastic inner trays.

Tara Toy Corp. :: "TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES" - COLLECTORS CASE v (( 1988 ))

I barely remember when i obtained this, it was so long ago. I think might have twisted my ma’s arm to pick it up for me at the Salvation Army for like 50 cents when i was still in high school or summin’.

Tara Toy Corp. :: "TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES" - COLLECTORS CASE xv (( 1988 ))

Tara Toy Corp. :: "TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES" - COLLECTORS CASE x (( 1988 ))This case here with the weird lookin’ Turtle graphics has seen allot of action and ware. It came without the cheap plastic handle the deluxe case has ( or similar, vintage collector cases for like Hot wheels, Real Ghostbusters, He-Man or G.I. Joe. ect. also made by Tara ).

Tara Toy Corp. :: "TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES" - COLLECTORS CASE xvi (( 1988 ))

Those handles are awful anyway and in my experience with them when i was a boy was that they always fell out if TOO MUCH WEIGHT of the toys within’ gave gravity the advantage. The dang case would fall off from the handle in transit with dropping the case on the ground. Sometimes the case would open spilling the toys.

Tara Toy Corp. :: "TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES" - COLLECTORS CASE xix / inner trays (( 1988 ))

The top inner tray was the most damaged and is still cracked, but the worst of the cracks have been repaired with some household epoxy and clear packing tape.

Tara Toy Corp. :: "TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES" - COLLECTORS CASE xxii / inner trays (( 1988 ))

Initially for years the handle i had used an old ribbon that just didn’t really quite work well as a holding mechanism and looked like crap.

Tara Toy Corp. :: "TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES" - COLLECTORS CASE xxiii / inner trays (( 1988 ))

Within’ the past year i replaced the ribbon with a jury-rigged handle made from shipping twine & and a broken piece of an old leather belt.

Tara Toy Corp. :: "TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES" - COLLECTORS CASE xxv / jury-rigged handle (( 1988 ))The old box still shows it’s age and ware, but the newer handle looks ascetically a little bit better. With the repairs, the ol’ case still does the job.

“A panel from the upcoming Selected comic book series showing the members together at last. From left to right are Loco Lizard, Catch, Poe, Atlas, Tarsus and Rajid the skate. It’s great to be working with these characters again. Created as TMNT toy designs, they would later be used to populate the expanded, 2nd season Mutanimals animated universe. They were shelved when the animated Mutanimals project fell through..” — **RYAN BROWN
