Part of our special TMNT debut offering.  Our debut offering features high-grade first releases of key characters found throughout the TMNT universe circa 1989-1993.

 

Magnificent unpunched example of the ever-popular Metalhead from Series Two on 19-back card.  Like our other TMNT lots, this first-release ultra high-grade Metalhead is as good as you will ever see.  AFA subgrades of triple 85 on TMNT are exceedingly difficult to achieve, but this stunning example is just awesome.  Card, bubble, and figure are immaculate.  A classic release from the early days of the TMNT toyline.  AFA has mistakenly labeled this a 14-Back, it’s a 19-Back and it’s his first release.  Encapsulated by AFA (85, 85-85-85), #13542880
