A 5 panel digital greyscale comic of Gamera and Gyaos from Gamera.

Panel 1 shows a grassy hill with a cave in it, it is midday and there is a sign in the foreground with the text “Gyaos Cave. Keep Out” written on it. Gamera’s tail and part of his shell are visible in the mouth of the cave and a voice from within is asking: “So, how’s the arm?”

Panel 2 shows the inside of the cave, where Gamera and Gyaos are sitting across from each other, both have calm expressions. Gamera is gesturing to his forearm and saying: “All healed! You?” Gyaos replies with “Oh, I am so ready for a rematch. Next time you should rip off my leg.”

Panel 3 is a close up of Gyaos, he is smirking and continues by saying: “And hit me with it.”

Panel 4 shows Gamera from the shoulders up with a concerned expression. He says: “Oh my… Gyaos, that’s horrific!”

Panel 5 is identical except now Gamera appears excited, he continues with: “The kids are gonna LOVE that! There will be so much blood!”

I am so sorry lol.

(V)o￥o(V) ~Tony | Baltan @baltan.bsky.social · 1d

I'm not either - I got stuck with one I was going to return but the window closed sooner than I realized, and now it's way cheaper! Makes up for $40 MKGs back in the day I suppose.

I also got it to go with Ortho Shin, so they'd look good and uniform together. And hell, throw 54 in there I suppose.

amzn.to/4h7x70U I know, Amazon, ugh. That said, if you're in the SHMA market, the combination of the sale price plus the additional (I assume targeted but do not know) coupon bringing a large, modern SHMA down to $78 shipped is pretty damn neat.

Ironically, some spoilers for Gen 10 this early wouldn't bother me but then I'd have to wade through Z-A spoilers and I don't want that lol.

That’s neat! I knew everything about the game was a fan effort at this point so would’ve been curious how such an organization would sell TF stuff this way but the listing preemptively answered that and follow-up questions.

When I get a brand-new toy from Amazon in MINT packaging, I feel conflicted! Someone else would be thrilled to get this and promptly put it in a MOC Master or something whereas I’m going to tear this shit open and recycle or trash the rest of it.

I was gonna say, that looks like precisely what people wanted forever. Savage Dragon is a nice bonus.

Yeah I’ve never messed around with a wishboard really, think that’s more for 60-cards and their sideboards and the multiversal flavor so I didn’t think of it as much of a relevant bit.

I foresee a lot of pizza cards in your future too! Also - now you have Ninja Commander options that aren't so unfun. 😛

I was the oldest so I was immediately designated the Leonardo child. It's not my fault if some versions get written terribly! 😭Two swords are just neat!

This! Usagi Yojimbo is a separate crossover character rather than specifically a TMNT dude, so that requires licensing from Stan Sakai entirely separate from Paramount.

In this context, what counts as mechanically tiring to you? You mean it being so similar to FoF?

Meanwhile, Raid (the Fridge) does a lot of heavy lifting on being a cute flavorful (hah!) win.

@packcrackfever.bsky.social That's hot.

Magic: The Gathering @magic.wizards.com · 6d

The #MTGxTMNT set has four borderless headliner cards that feature art by Kevin Eastman, the original illustrator of TMNT. Take a look at that shiny signature stamp! So rad.

This image shows off the card ""Leonardo, Sewer Samurai"". Three mana, white mana. Legendary Creature - Mutant Ninja Turtle. Rare Rarity.

Cart art: This full art treatment is done in the black and white comic book style of original TMNT comic creator Kevin Eastman. It depicts a humanoid turtle leaping over the rooftops of a city. The card boxes are lined in gold and the rules text box is signed in gold by Eastman with a doodle of a samurai helmet.

Rules text: Sneak Two mana, two white mana.
Double strike.
During your turn you may cast creature spells with power or toughness one or less from your graveyard. If you cast a spell this way, that creature enters with a finality counter on it. Power three/toughness three.
