....About what? We need something more specific.

Heads up there's a hardcover IDW collection coming out and can be pre-ordered on amazon for 35 dollars. I think it had 17 issues in it.

....I actually don't know what IDW is...lol.
I just watched the old cartoons and got the toys as a kid back then. xD (oh yeah, and video games)

I just stick with the 87 cartoon series and the three movies. I have yet to see Michael Bay's train wreck on my childhood. I have heard mixed reviews on it but I just don't know if I can bring myself to watch it.

You should @WaveBoy, Bebop and Rocksteady is slated to appear. The Punkfrogs recently came out but I have a feeling you won't like their updated design. Also Mondo Gecko. I never liked the original design from the Fred Wolf cartoon. I know he's rad looking but... anything with hair just gives me a furry feel...

Speaking of which there is a Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street/Care Bears inspired mutants in season 3.

Mondo Gecko's concept art.

Speaking of the Bay Film.... it wasn't as BAD as it could be... but it's not very good either. Still can't get used to the designs and Splinter's design is horrible. Also Oroku Saki wasn't even supposed to be the Shredder in this but it got changed up before release. SPOILERS: The scientist and Shredder were originally the same character. I think because of this the second half of the movie was heavily edited and made even worse. They never showed Saki's face and you can tell those scenes were rushed in or added in at the last minute.

Edit: This is all they had to do... and the designs would have been more than fine...

Eh, at least the Transformers movies were ok, they kinda need to tone down on all the...half-naked girl stuff and robotic tails coming out of the their panties and stuff. lol
So I'll take a look at the new movie, but...meh.

I think it's better than the third TMNT movie...

Larid/Easttman run is Goat followed by the 2k3 series and the IDW Comic.

Yeah I enjoyed the Mirage comics and 2003 series a lot. Also what is goat? Is that a new slang word? I never read any of the IDW comics but I'm picking up the Vol 1 hardcover collection.

Greatest of all time

I think Danger of the Ooze is a much better game than the movie on 3DS. It's also a different kind of game than the first one.

Really? I TMNT was a good movie. IGN put it as number 2 on their to turtles movies with the first movie being the first one. They put the third movie in last place followed by the new Bay movie. Then Secret of the Oooze, TMNT and the first one.

Shut up Gamergirl.

I think one of the TMNT games on GBA was really good... can't remember which one but I think it was also by Wayforward. Also I happen to like the original NES TMNT game, despite it being hard as shell. I think I only beat it once.

Btw anyone check out Turtles Forever?

Also Wavekid let me kick it at your pad and check out your sweet 80's swag, Pac-Man arcade, He-Man figures and original drawings.

@KaiserGX: I have seen Turtles Forever and I have to say it was interesting. It was great seeing every version of the turtles in one movie. From the silly comical 80's Turtles to the dark and gritty comic book versions to the last versions before the Nickelodeon TMNT came out. My only problem was due to union laws they couldn't get the original voices for the 80's TMNT so they sound a bit off but still a good tribute movie nevertheless.

I'll just chime in and say I've completely given up hope of ever getting a good TMNT game again unless maybe Nintendo ever gets a shot at it. I thought Wayforward could get the job done but even they failed. I loved The Arcade Game, the Manhattan Project, Hyperstone Heist an Turtles in Time, but obviously those good old days are never coming back. I think there was a game in 2003 that was decent and the Xbox 360 game based off the TMNT movie back in 07 or 08 was a decent rental but everything since, yeah, pure garbage, especially the last few. Out of the Shadows is among the worst games I've ever played.

@Gamer83: I know what you mean man. I am glad that I grabbed the Arcade game on XBLA when I did. For the other ones well that's why I have an OUYA.

@Tasuki

Yeah, at the time I never would've thought we'd end up losing The Arcade game on XBL but I'm glad I grabbed a copy of that probably the first week it released. It was one of my first XBLA purchases and money well spent. I also didn't hate the XBLA release of Turtles in Time Re-Shelled as much as some people did but I can certainly understand the gripes. I have a functioning SNES and a lot of my friends buy those retro duo machines or whatever, some that play NES, SNES and Genesis cartridges so I still get to re-live my youth from time to time. I'd love to get a good, modern TMNT game on PS4 or X1 though.
