New TMNT Toys

Do you collect other toys besides Transformers? Maybe you've got a Masters of the Universe collection you'd like to show off, or maybe you like Thundercats, Voltron, G.I.Joe, Power Rangers, Star Wars, Wrestling, or any of the various comic book toy lines. Please keep the discussions here to non-Transformers toy lines.

More old school trivia!

TMNT/Star Wars crossover, anyone?

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have a long history of wild crossovers with other nerdy properties. But according to the Jedi Temple Archives, the best one that could have happened never actually did. In the early 90s, when Hasbro/Kenner had let the Star Wars action figure license lapse. So Playmates made a pitch for the property, and even commissioned famed Ninja Turtles artist Michael Dooney to mock up some potential artwork for a line of TMNT / Star Wars crossover toys.

I never knew I needed a pizza lightsaber all this time.
These closeups with the call-out details make it even better. A nunchuck bowcaster! Sewer pipe lightsaber handles! A miniature Han Solo In Carbonite strapped to April Leia's belt! Various versions of Donatello strapped to the other Turtles' backs! This is the stuff of childhood dreams.

Two Dons? Surely Yoda should be Splinter. Also, no Han?

But I could actually see Hasbro doing this today. They already did the Ninja Turtles / Power Rangers crossover figures. Probably be a little harder since they don't own Star Wars like they own Power Rangers.

Trailers out, mildy offensive :( so I'm not posting the link hahahaha

Oh well, if it gets the nickelodeon series released on blu ray with actually labelled discs (something they didn't bother with for our dvd version) then there is that, or the films in 4K would be something.

Picked up retro storage shell turtles at smyths today. They also had the single figures (triceraton, shredder, in disguise) so at least the film is getting toys back in toy stores :)

I was surprised to see those at Walmart, but I was beyond shocked to see the Pizza Tossin figures back in stores, I was sure they were panned hard back in the day.

Incidentally I've been reading the IGN comics for the first time (just about finished with the second collection), kinda in the mood for buying TMNT figures again...

I considered picking up the IDW series, upon several recommendations. But I'm really struggling for space right now.

Upon hearing about this upcoming crossover, I did have to go down a minor IDW lore rabbit hole. As I had no idea who the fifth, Yellow Turtle was.

I'd like to have physical copies, but I'm reading on my lunch breaks through Comixology.
