(W/A/CA) Richard Fairgray.
Two stories - and a few extra monstrous tales - from the mind of Richard Fairgray! First is an All-New Blastosaurus: There is barely a person in Freak Out City who he hasn't saved from a monster or robot or internet scam. Yup, Blasto is just a likeable hero, unless of course, you're one of the monstrous villains he's repeatedly defeated. Introducing the Monsters Against Blasto the Ugly Triceratops: Tailed Heroes Usually Ruin Things Society (M.A.B.U.T.T.H.U.R.T.S for short)! Every one of these monsters has tangled with our saurian hero and every one of them has a story to tell. Also, a sneak peek from the highly anticipated Black Sand Beach OGN, as the nightmares continue for Dash and his crew at his family's beach house. Forever warned by the grown-ups to stay away from the Mulchucks, their creepy neighbors, it's hard to escape them.
Rated 8 & Up.
This collectible has an extremely interesting but tumultuous history. Mirage Studios was the comic book publishing company founded by TMNT creators Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird in the mid-1980s. As the TMNT started to skyrocket in popularity with the 1980s cartoon, major blockbuster movies, and the ongoing comic series, there was a whole team of people working at Mirage Studios on various parts.
One of the artists at Mirage Studious was Craig “A.C.” Farley who is probably most known for his covers from TMNT issues #50-62, known as the City at War story arc. A.C. Farley is an incredibly talented artist and there was a push to create a high-end collectible to celebrate Mirage Studios reaching its 50th comic issue milestone. Leonardo was the first bust created and there were rumors that each of the four turtles were planned to have their own bust created.
Initially, 500 of these Leonardo busts were planned in the production run. Mirage even put out a Leonardo’s Been Busted! teaser image announcing the bronze-tinted statues. As you can see on the box cover art below, there is a “1 of 500” printed at the bottom of the cover label. For clarity, these did not end up being individually numbered – each box says “1 of 500.”
Unfortunately, only about 80 of the statues were produced due to issues with the modeling company, Geometrics. These were designed to be cast in bronze-filled resin but, unfortunately, the 80 produced were made in white resin (photos below).
