Default My Favorite Toy Challenge - s2-speedy

Okay im going to enter.

Funnily enough, i was clearing my loft / Attic out the other day and came accorss aload of old toys so have recently seen them and had a blast from the past.

So im just saving my space and tempted to go with the ninja turtles...although not 100% sure yet. May change the toy yet...my sega mega drive was a favourite of mine, so was He-man, ghostbusters, mask, Manta Force...and aload more. But I think ill go with the turtles for now and maybe even the turtle van.

Should be fun. Good Luck to all who enter.

Cool, Looking forward to the competition, just like the old days.

Although I was around for the turtle toys, I was a bit too old for them myself. Although I preferred the Eastman & Laird comic version over the cartoon.

Thanks Bullet, But I should be okay now. I collected a fair bit of reference in the week so might have enough. Ill let you know if I do later on though.

I've started the modelling now... began with the head. Pretty basic at the moe.

Sandman - I aim to model the newer versions of the toys which were based more on the look of the comic turtles. I like the look of these alot better than the cartoon versions.
