I want the Guillory Variant! Its a 1 in 10 variant but my shop only orders 7 issues of TMNT :/
I'm guessing the same will happen with Ottley's variant, Ill have to buy them online somewhere.

That's what I did, I managed to snag the last Guillory variant from HeavyInk.com before someone else snagged it.

Cover price plus S&H?
or was it a higher price?

HeavyInk does cover price on variants. The trick is to get to the page before the ones you want are sold out. is also only usually up on the day they get the comics in, because people camp the page and refresh it constantly, putting too much load on the website. They usually post in the forums what day the variant covers will be in and the page will be up.

The Leo Mini came out today! I thought it was a decent story that reflects leo well. The art is my favorite part, I LOVE Campbells art in this issue. I wish he drew the ongoing.

Here is cover A and B

Edit: Hmm not sure why my pics keep getting deleted. so here are just some google'd pics of cover A and B

Funny you should ask this, because solicited in next month's Previews...

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures, Vol. 1
Dave Garcia, Beth Mitchroney, Ken Mitchroney, Christy Marx, David Wise, Larry Parr (w) • Dave Garcia, Ken Mitchroney (a) • Steve Lavigne (C)

Classic animated TMNT action is collected here in this collection of two fan-favorite cartoon adaptations! In both "The Return of Shredder Parts 1–2" and "The Incredible Shrinking Turtles Parts 1–2,” as Shredder comes back to Earth from Dimension X and attempts to exact his revenge upon the hard-backed heroes.

TPB • FC • $19.99 • 120 Pages • ISBN 978-1-61377-289-8

• Vintage TMNT action for fans both old and new!

Four issues for 20 bucks sounds kind of outrageous to me. Its TMNT Adventures, they should be putting those in 20 issue archive style softbacks or something.

Agreed! They should have it like the Classic G.I.joe collections, which compile 10 books for $20-$25.

My Ultimate Collection Vol. 2 HC just shipped

My Ultimate Collection Vol. 2 HC just shipped

Mine too (from InStockTrades).

I'm curious why certain distributors got copies so far in advance of it coming out via Diamond.

And please please please please god let them have not botched the double-page spreads as bad this time.

[dupont2005]

I'm not sure Diamond is even the largest TPB and hardcover distributor

[IsaiahPLG]

I really want those Ultimate collections, but I already have a lot of the issues in single form (and still looking) and with all the other books I get I can't really get my self to spend the money on it. Let me know how cool Vol. 2 is! and what kind of goodies it comes with!

The collections are worth it. I have nearly the entire run in floppies but these hardcovers are awesome. Oversized and well made. Look great on the shelf. I'm far more likely to grab one of these and flip through it than my floppies. I just wish they had decided to reprint the entire series this way instead of just selected material.
