80s Toy Keychain Appraisal

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Michelangelo Keychain

This item is a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) themed keychain, featuring the character Michelangelo. The keychain consists of two main parts: a character figurine and a strap, both attached to a metal split key ring and a lobster claw clasp. The Michelangelo figurine is made of a soft, flexible material, likely silicone or PVC, in a stylized, chibi-like form. It predominantly features the character's signature green skin, with an orange eye mask, orange elbow and knee pads, and an orange belt. The belt buckle prominently displays a white letter "M" on a brown circular background, signifying Michelangelo. The figurine appears to be in excellent condition with no visible significant wear, tears, or discoloration. The colors are vibrant and well-defined. The accompanying strap is also made of a similar green, flexible material and features the word "TURTLES" embossed in white capital letters along its length. At the end of the strap, there's a relief of a turtle shell logo, also in orange, adding to the theme. The metal hardware, including the split key ring and lobster clasp, appears to be made of a silver-toned metal, possibly nickel-plated steel, showing no signs of rust or heavy scratching. The overall construction suggests a mass-produced item, likely from the 21st century, targeting fans of the TMNT franchise. The craftsmanship is consistent with licensed merchandise, focusing on recognizable character representation.
