To all those attending ComiCon this year, “Avva Good un'” as we say in Bristol. July 10th on a personal note is also my birthday, and its awesome to have a little extra that day to look forward to seeing even in the capacity of an internet spectator. I will certainly be watching the TMNT Panels.

Enjoy the event, the collectable clutter you can bring home, but most importantly the company of the people you mix with whether ‘fan’ or ‘famous’.

I’ll join you one day.

Waddingtons, Hero Turtles Card Game 1990

Whilst hunting for treasure at the Fathers Day Car Boot sale I came across this gem. – The Waddingtons Teenage Mutant HERO Turtles card game!!!

Waddingtons used to distribute many major name board game licenses in the UK before they went defunct in 1994.

I had this card set for my birthday in 1990 and it was a favorite non-action figure TMHT item piece of my old fan collection. Nearly 25 years later I spent just £1 to buy this part of my childhood back and am happy to share it.

Sorry for the poor auto-cropping on some of these scans. I intend to post better scans of the full set artwork in a later entry Watch this space!

Abandoned TOKKA & Rahzar art (( 2000 ))

☠ ☠

–>> The FUGLY work no one asked to see, but recently dug up.. here’s some odd, old never before published work from the crusty-old Tokka-archives – – that only a Mother would love .. or stick under a bird-cage.

☠ ☠

Not 100% sure but these are possibly the among the first illustrations i started drawing of these particular characters post my accident in 1999 where my signature style really started to change and develop into what it is now. Not sure. These prolly date to late ’99 – 2000. This is is the first real time they’ve been presented fully,
