Cowabunga, dudes! I thought I'd share these recent finds with you folks. First up has always been my personal holy grail: Mikey's hero pair of nunchaku.
They're 12”, made of solid wood, and the cords are leather. They show a substantial amount of wear, and appear to be lighter in color than the ones seen in the sequel (for comparison: Signed Nunchuku), which makes me believe they're from the original movie. Next is Leo's hero pair of katana that can be seen at the beginning of the sequel during the mall fight.
They measure 33" in length. The dull blades and hand guards are aluminum. The wooden hilts are wrapped in leather. TMNT II's prop master originally sold these weapons (along with Raph's sai and Donnie's bo) on eBay in 2000. After speaking with the prop master last month, I learned that only three weapon sets were created for the first two films (and Planet Hollywood has one). He called these particular weapons “the best.” They came with his original letter of authenticity and a second hand-typed letter, plus even the USPS packaging that he mailed back in 2000. To see larger versions of these photos and some rare continuity Polaroids that were also included in the package, click below: Flickr: NinjaRap's Photostream
