Like it's 1987

Whenever I fly south to my parents house for a week or two every winter, I inevitably examine my room and look through drawers, closets, boxes and shelves to find the same things that I left there last Christmas, only with a little more dust. This time I found Paul Pierce and Shaq (in his prime) just kickin' it in a drawer. These relics of my teenage years had been in the dark and lonely for a little less than a year. So I dusted them off, kinda, and put them in some window light. Shout out to Todd McFarlane.

TMNT

Raphael is cool but crude. He was my least favorite of the four, but the only one currently in my possession. I was totally fascinated by these upright walking turtles when I was in elementary school. I'm pretty sure I've seen every episode of the first animated series and I've definitely seen the first three installments of the live action movies. I was thoroughly disgusted with the TMNT III...what was that? Anyway...I believe this particular version of Raphael was a later model as the earlier versions you were able to squish and twist off the heads way too easily. Shout out to April O'Neil.

Panthro

Since this is my blog and no one reads it, I can do whatever I please. So this week kicks off the first annual Toy Week here at Untitled. If you check my website, I occasionally have an affinity to photograph toys from my early adulthood. But this week I've decided to shoot a few gems from my early childhood. First up...Panthro of ThunderCat fame.
