Fan Club Flyer

Soft Head

 Early release TMNT Leo 10-Back from 1988 showcasing highly desirable soft head and Fan Club Flyer.  Soft heads are rare enough but add an elusive Fan Club Flyer and you have one of the most highly sought-after TMNT collectibles in the hobby.  The Fan Club Flyer is positioned behind the weapons rack.  Leo actually has a rare soft head, unlike the much more common hard plastic head variety.  These are thought to be one of the very first TMNT releases to hit retail shelves.  And now to the subject at hand: the card displays great with strong gloss and color front and back.  Horizontal veining located below the weapons rack is the culprit on the front.  The reverse has a horizontal vein that extends from the edge through the bottom of the top three images.  The card is otherwise outstanding, free from edgewear and sticker residue.  The bubble is crystal clear and retains original form without dents or dings.  Strong subgrades of 80-80-80 will have serious collectors paying close attention to this offering.  Over the last 18 months, we’ve seen sale prices of rare TMNT pieces soar, and with more and more fans of the franchise realizing disposable income, we see no end in sight.  Encapsulated by AFA (80, 80-80-80), #19045884
