So I just learned that its a big year for the Teenage Nutant Ninja Turtles franchise. This year they will be celebrating their 25th Anniversary.

NECA has new figures rolling off the production lines for the event, continuing to add to their new releases from last year.

Any Turtles fans out there?

That TMNT line was my favorite line from last year. I already have wave 2 preordered. I also hope the Playmates re releases come to Canada.

I still got my original figures in my bedroom...sure they are missing every accesory but it's the thought that counts. Will get the reissues.

Hmm, someone should contact them and find out.

saw these at target today. Looked pretty sweet. What's even sweeter is the re-release of the party van!!

I'm a big fan of the series and original comics, but I've never wanted the Playmates toys. Now the Black and White box set from NECA... I've been wanting that for some time...

I'd don't know about the party van, but they have a website dedicated to the 25th Anniversary and the NECA stuff for sure. Think I got the image from BBTS. Link below for website.

This (http://www.ninjaturtles.com/) should answer most questions

Thats awesome! If I didnt already have a party van, Id get that! But I dont have any more room for extras!! I'm even unloading a couple on here now. I may try to pick up those figures though if they ever make it to Canada. I have them all, but alas, they are from my "playing with toys" days.. and are a little worse for wear.. espescially the ones with the rubber heads!!

Seeing the pics of the old figs really brings back the memories. For what ever reason I was unable to get the origional four, but got yusagi yugombo and a fort soulder instead. Great idea for playmates to release them again...

Ditto. I definitely have more then my fair share of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles toys ranging from the Party Wagon, Turtle Blimp, and the Technodrome stored away in 2 large Rubbermaid containers. But given that most of the original toys and stickers have significant "play" wear and tear, I have to admit that the nostalgic packaging might have me repurchasing atleast the original 4 turtles after seeing the 25th Anniversary Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in person while in Minneapolis.

I guess we'll see if they're ever released in Canada.

I just picked up 50 or so old turtle toys. all loose and missing bits here and there, then they come out with these, and makes me wish i waited a bit.

IMO this is exactly how a 25th Anniversary should be celebrated. The TMNT guys seem to have a lot planned and they have the right balance of old and new figures to celebrate the brand. I think a certain company that makes giant transforming robot toys could take a couple notes from them.
