for the 25th anniversary.

i bought raphael, donatello, rocksteady and splinter. it's the original splinter
with the plastic head and not the later rubber-headed one. they don't have
pizza points though, which sucks. the 4 turtles each come with a dvd of one
of the first four episodes of the cartoon series.

Irma was whiny and annoying.

I picked up Donatello. It's pretty wonderful, and I'd get the rest if they weren't ten bucks a piece.

Lol, tell me about it.

Anyone got any links/photos for these?

Casey Jones was a badass character, especially in the comics.

i had these when i was a kid. i remember being upset that i only ever had good guys though, i didn't have any bad guy action figures for them to fight, so i just had to make them practice fighting against each other all the time. they were some fine tuned motherfuckers, i tell you that

i remember one day my dog got a hold of my donatello and chewed off his leg and part of his arm and mangled his head pretty badly. i think i still have him lying around somewhere at home (the donatello, not the dog)

Between me and my bro we had most of the figures, the van (http://www.tmnttoys.com/partywagon.jpg), the bike (with trash can sidecar), the parachute. Never had the Blimp (http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_W8dDqsMHtUc/RszWuENKnWI/AAAAAAAAAoQ/i0uNnpGnCZI/s400/blimp23.jpg) though.

for anyone familiar with the TMNT II video game.

you can rock out to this. just use it as the soundtrack for when you're playing with your new action figures.

the only thing i liked about tmnt was the arcade game.

one thing that always bothered me was that THEY"RE NOT NINJAS!

:mad::mad:what?! ninjas wear ninja hoods with the eyes cut out. tmnt's wore like burglar masks like the hamburglar over their eyes which is the opposite of a ninja hood. the stealthiest thing tmnt can do is hide in their shell. pfffffhahaha teenage mut-ain't ninja turtles.

panthro would crack shit up just using the blue end of his nunchucks and not break a sweat

being a ninja has nothing to do with what you wear.

the ninja garb is for stealth, the tmnt's wore red, purple and green and had loud clumsy shells on their backs. not really good for hiding around a corner, klank!, whooops there goes a shell bangin on a fire extinguisher again! ninjas don't eat pizza, they eat ramen noodles, duh

plus the tmnt's never assassinated anyone

I could never find Splinter or any of the bad guys anywhere. I had all the turtles, the van and a few shitty side characters but that was it, so like Bob I just had to make do with a cardboard sewer and make them beat each other up over pizza all day.

Oh, except one day some guy came up to me at school when I was 6 or 7 and gave me a Bebop figure because he didn't want it any more. Bodacious!

roosta

i had the turtles, bebop, shredder and a foot solider.

and i also made a cardboard sewer.

always wanted the van or the blimp, but was never allowed.

I'd have traded my van for Shredder and a foot soldier in the blink of an eye :'(

god i want them.

during my teenage mutant HERO turtle phase i lived in germany so when we came back to the uk to visit my grandparents i would always, always, always ask my mum in safeway or wherever for the TMHT pizzas on sale. they were basically normal pizzas with MARSHMALLOW and other highly inappropriate pizza ingredients on top - because, you know, that's what hero turtles eat. she refused every. single. time. for years. christmas. summers. no no no. DENIED the probably disgusting gimmicky pizzas. oh my broken heart.

I had those big ones. Okay maybe that sounds perverse. I had one of those tall ones, and had all the action figures they were easy to get at the swapmeet for a dollar. I liked these toys a lot until I fell in love with lego and McFarlane toys.

Point is TMNT is gay.

even though they were the original animal fighters before those mutated Sharks and Space Rats and the animated Mighty Ducks or Gargoyles but still TMNT is gay. pff

yeah totally gay. gay as hell.
