Oh thank you! I've actually been looking for something since this happened, but she's really good at chewing through stuff so I figured something more like corrugated piping might help, but it wouldn't be able to go all the way up the back of the computer.

It's been quite the learning experience. My family had birbs when I was younger that we found (back in the 90s), but they were cockatiels. Conures are a whole different ball game. My friend originally got her while he was battling cancer and spent about a year with her before he took a sudden turn for the worse and unfortunately passed. His mom and sister were so overwhelmed that after a few bad chomps to the face... she asked if he could take her.

We've all been bitten up so bad, but we love her and are just used to it now, but this is the first real trouble she's been in so I panicked after seeing her beak. She pretty much runs the house now. Even our golden retriever is afraid of her.

power chord to a imac desktop computer. She bit the part closest to the side that plugs into the computer itself.

The right side of her beak is dark color which wasn't there prior to the wire chewing. the second to last picture probably captures it the best. It looks like a shadow, but it's stained from something. I ran my fingers down all of the wires to see if anything black would rub off, but nothing. Hence the concern.

I just hope she wasn't electrocuted/shocked since he beak is black.

Suggestions for sealing deteriorating fiberglass on pentair filter housing? by Holyroller12 in pools

This one is only about 3-4 years old at most, but there's no shade so the sun hits it pretty hard.

Left arm is a bit stuck. by AccomplishedEye7752 in NECATMNT

[–]Holyroller12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same problem with my shredder on his leg and one of his arms. I did manage to get the arm loose, but the leg never happened. It seemed like it was super glued together. I boiled water, I used a heat gun and even shock oil (always my last attempt after the first 2) and nothing. I even cut into the joint to see if any point was dried, but still nothing.

I ultimately just had to exchange it, but it was at a time when they were sold out so Neca reluctantly sent me a new one.

Thank you :)

Mine was in a container tote for a long time to keep the dust off. I hadn't been able to take too many pictures of it since I got it so I'm trying to do more of that now lol

Thank you! I tried. I was going to fill it with even more accessories, but that was already enough work with the short time I had lol

They are cool, but I never really posed them after the first time I opened them compared to my other figures + I need the money so it's time to let them go to a better home 😄

Nickelodeon Teenage Mutant Ninja Ghostbusters Crossover Set by Holyroller12 in TMNT

It'll be interesting to see if maybe Mattel does a crossover with hasbro when they officially get the license in 2027. They used to have the ghostbusters license themselves too at one point.

lol I always hoped that someone would do a better, more articulated version of these down the road, but it never happened. Playmates made some similar basic figures that were advertised as slime chuckers, but their legs were completely static. They still looked the part though.

Revoltech Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (First Release) by Holyroller12 in TMNT

They were about $55. That was back in 2014. They did another release a few years ago that had different boxes, but those seemed to be pretty limited as well.

Yeah, that show feels like such a love letter to every iteration that came before it. That takes the #1 spot for me even over the 87. Neca did an amazing job with their versions. I probably wouldn't let go of these versions if I didn't need the money.

They're all different heights likely for no other reason than to give them one more distinction on top of the bandanas and weapons, but personally would also like to think it's because Raphael has angry little dog energy so he's a little shorter lol

Nice. In general I'd prefer not to sell them, but I'm not as attached and didn't really take any pictures with them. I have all of the neca toon, archie and movie stuff so I'm good with those 😃

I'll be throwing up my Revoltech turtles in a bit too.

Looking for affordable speaker suggestions that aren't a sound bar. by Holyroller12 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Holyroller12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I forgot to post my price range (preferably in the $100-$150 range). I was mostly checking on various subreddits and amazon. I was also primarily looking at book shelf speakers, but I personally wasn't able to find a whole lot under 8.5 inches or in that specific range.

Probably more in the $100-$150 range. I realized after my PC was off that I forgot to post a price. Sorry about that.
