I was born in 1984, I grew up in the woods of Union, Maine. Playing with sticks, making forts, wrecking rows of corn in the fields. Jumping, kicking, punching…like most kids in the area…but me, I was pretending I was a turtle. Not just any turtle though…I was a Ninja Turtle. My parents tell people about how whenever we went into Rockland I would always be looking down the storm drains looking for the Turtles and trying to talk to them haha For my whole life there has been one constant love that has always stuck with me, and since I’m on the Eastman fan site, and my story started the way it did, I’m sure you can all guess what that has been. If you could see my figure collection which includes a lot of NECAs and the entire Batman vs TMNT set…it’d be very obvious. Now I’m 36, and just recently got more curious about the Ninja Turtles I’ve loved for so long, so I decided to do some research and found this site. I didn’t realize how much I was missing out on. All these years later…I’m now discovering the deep lore and background, the comics, and stories I’ve never heard of, characters I’ve never seen. It’s amazing! Then, to find out that the Turtles and the studio have a personal connection to my home state!? That absolutely blew my mind. The turtles…are kinda from Maine �� I love it. Anyway, here I am. I will always keep my membership active on this site from now on. Thank you Kevin. Sincerely man. I love the work you do. Thank you for creating. Thank you for the signed comic! It’s framed now, and one of my favorite items to show people!
