“MEGA MUTANTS” TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES :: “ARMY ANT” / ..unreleased M.M. toy (( 1990 )) [[ Art and courtesy of D. Arshawsky ]]

–>> **David Arshawsky**, one of the most noted, and unique sculptors of the classic ( and even 2003 era ) TMNT line recently shared a “lost” extension of his ANAGLYPH Sculpture, early 1990s run of the popular and BIG-TIME TMNT “MEGA MUTANTS” vehicle/figures. What follows the 2up and Resin clay sculpt of the would-be toy are the “ARMY ANT’S” designs and alternate takes before what was actually sculpted came into being !!

  **In case you missed it, or spaced it .. remember the FCBD LIMITED HARD COPY RUN of TMNT Volume Four #31 is available via MIRAGE’s website. With only a 1000 print run, and insane and unreasonable prices on ebay for the books ..DIRECT FROM THE SOURCE is your best value for purchasing. With a few different purchasing options from Mirage ( like Laird autographed/ sketch copy packages ), this may be your last opportunity to get a first print copy of 31. Hurry – they won’t last much longer !! !!
