This Turtle Thursday stream marks a milestone celebration—1,000 followers—with a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles toy auction built around aggressive starting bids and clear shopping instructions for collectors.
The big theme: many items are loose and incomplete, with starting bids as low as $1, while boxed and select deluxe/pop figures get $5 and some $10-focused pricing. If you’re looking specifically for budget-friendly TMNT figures—especially loose lots—this episode shows exactly how to find and evaluate what’s still available.
TMNT 1K Follower Shellabration overview (Turtle Thursday format)
The host explains that this is part of a 1,000-follower celebration run of shows, using the Turtle Thursday format to spotlight TMNT action figures and related collectibles.
Throughout the stream, the host emphasizes that the sale includes a mix of:
- Loose and incomplete Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles figures
- Boxed figure listings and deluxe/pop items
- Condition/parts notes that matter when you’re buying without packaging
The host also directs viewers to the auction tab and indicates that most turtle-related items appear there.
Loose TMNT action figure deals: $1 starts plus condition notes
A key takeaway from the episode is that many of the loose and/or incomplete items are set up with low starting bids—frequently $1.
The host explicitly notes that “everything” being run is likely loose and incomplete for the dollar-start portions of the show. They also provide condition callouts while discussing various figures, which is useful if you’re trying to understand what you’re actually bidding on.
Examples of the kind of loose/condition commentary included in the stream:
- Figures called out as loose and complete vs. loose with missing accessories
- Notes about fragility and standing issues (some turtles can be difficult to keep upright)
- Mentions of missing parts (the episode repeatedly focuses on whether wings or accessories are present)
- General handling concerns typical of older loose toys
The stream references multiple loose 2012-era TMNT characters and other turtle variants, with an overall emphasis on what’s missing or intact. Characters and variants mentioned during the loose portions include Splinter, Next Mutation Donny, Leatherhead, and Baxter Stockman (with the note that he has “no wings”).
Boxed figure and deluxe/pop specials: $5 and select $10 deals
In addition to loose lots, the Turtle Thursday Shellabration includes boxed and more “display-ready” options.
The episode highlights a pricing shift for these categories, describing:
- Boxed action figures that are often listed with $5 starting bids
- Select items that receive special $10-focused pricing for the 1K follower event
The host also discusses deluxe/pop-style listings and references accessory-included figures and gear sets—items collectors often prefer when buying with full sets.
One of the featured “$1k follower” pricing notes in the transcript includes a move to a $10 special price for a specific deluxe figure, described as a new and loose “bad boy” deluxe last-round figure (the transcript ties this to the 1K follower special pricing of $10).
There are also segments focused on specific figure lines and presentations, including deluxe/pop listings and figures with additional weapons/gear.
What to search for in the auction tab (loose vs. figure/action figure)
The host repeatedly gives viewers a practical method for finding the remaining Turtle Thursday inventory.
Instead of relying only on browsing, they suggest using the auction tab and searching with keywords such as:
- “loose” (to pull up loose-stock listings)
- “figure” or “action figure” (to filter down to action figure and figure listings)
They also point out how the site is organized:
- Turtle-related items are available in the auction tab
- Pop figures and action figures can be found through keyword searches (using the terms they mentioned)
This matters because the episode’s sale structure is not just one batch of items—it’s spread across categories (loose, boxed, pop, reaction-style listings), and the search keywords help collectors quickly locate the type they want.
Rewards club coupons and giveaway-style planning
Along with the auction details, the host mentions a rewards club and coupons.
Viewers are told they can use coupons for this show or future shows, with the tone that the coupons are tied to the channel’s membership/rewards program.
The transcript also indicates the host’s intent to run more deals and giveaways as part of the ongoing Turtle Thursday programming and celebration schedule.
Turtle Thursday schedule updates: Tuesday action figure shows
The episode includes a straightforward schedule update:
- Action figure shows run on Tuesdays
- Comic coverage is mentioned for other days (the transcript references comic/action coverage on Mondays and Saturdays)
The host also previews more turtle-focused shows after this one, including a return for a regular turtle show on Saturday morning.
If you’re planning future collecting sessions, the episode’s consistent message is that the action-figure-oriented streams recur every Tuesday, while other coverage shifts to comic and action-related programming on the other referenced days.
NECA and TMNT collecting talk (reissues and stock availability)
While the core of Turtle Thursday is the auction, the host includes collecting discussion relevant to TMNT buyers.
The stream references stock and availability updates, including:
- A mention of NECA being sold out at the time discussed, with an expectation that more listings may appear
- Collecting chatter around TMNT reissues
Reissue-focused topics mentioned in the transcript include:
- Storage Shell reissues
- Movie Star Turtle reissues
The host also brings up crossover/history collecting context, including an early Usagi crossover reference tied to Stan Sakai’s involvement.
Practical collector checklist from the episode
Based on what’s emphasized across the Turtle Thursday Shellabration stream, here’s what matters most when you shop similar listings:
- Use the auction tab search keywords (“loose”, “figure”, or “action figure”)
- Expect loose listings to be loose/incomplete, and read condition/parts notes carefully
- When buying loose, verify whether accessories or key parts are present (the transcript repeatedly highlights missing items like wings/accessories)
- For more display options, look for $5 starting bids on boxed items and $10 special pricing segments
Conclusion
TMNT Turtle Thursday’s 1K Follower Shellabration is a clear snapshot of how the host runs Turtle Thursday auctions: $1 starting bids on many loose and incomplete TMNT figures, $5 starts for boxed action figures, and select $10 event pricing—paired with coupon/rewards mentions and consistent shopping guidance for using the auction tab search.
If your collecting focus is budget-friendly TMNT toys—especially loose figure lots—this episode is particularly useful because it demonstrates both the deal structure and the exact keywords to locate remaining inventory.
