Lootcrate Launches TMNT Limited Edition Series

by Kyle Tobey
written by Kyle Tobey

After the success of their Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles themed Loot Launcher, Lootcrate has announced a new set of TMNT mystery crates. Each box is loaded with exclusive TMNT merchandise, as well as the prized NECA Toys exclusive figure.

This is a series of 3 limited edition crates with a different theme featuring different versions of the TMNT.

The first crate pays homage to the Mirage comic series. With it, another fantastic exclusive NECA Toys piece. The Shredder features a design based on his original appearance from the Mirage Comics.

I personally love this figure. It’s rare to see merchandise, ESPECIALLY FIGURES, from the Mirage series. This is already a welcome addition to any display shelf.

We’ve only been given the themes of the following crates. They include…

The Video Game

The 1989 Animated Series

And, theres a bonus figure!

The bonus figure is Bebop in a Bunny Suit, as seen in the classic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles episode “The Turtles and the Hare.” The 7” figure comes with awesome accessories, and you can only get it with the purchase of all three TMNT crates!

These are an absolute must buy for any Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles figure collector. Some of these will be highly sought after in the future, so make sure to order yours from Lootcrate now!

Lootcrate Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Movie 30th Anniversary Box

by Kyle Tobey
written by Kyle Tobey

Lootcrate announced a new kind of mystery crate called “Loot Launcher”, where the crate is only released if enough people pledge to support the mystery box. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle crate promised an exclusive Splinter Spirit figure with the box, and it well exceeded it’s goal.

I supported this crate months ago and got a surprise package in the mail! Check out what was in this special TMNT 30th Anniversary crate!

 

Foot Clan Patch and Pin

 

This embroidered patch and pin are fun, subtle ways to show your loyalty to the Foot Clan. Put these on and you’ll only get 1 question; Regular? Or menthol? (Don’t smoke, it’s from the movie.)

Foot Clan Graffiti Tee

The Foot Clan continue to make their mark in this box. The logo for Channel 3 News has been tagged and, shockingly, there are no witnesses. It’s a good quality shirt with a fun design. I’m a fan of shirts where only fans would get the reference, and this fits the description.

Foot Clan Headband

This is a great addition to your cosplay closet, or an accessory for your toy display!

Spirit of Splinter Figure from NECA Toys

This is definitely a grail piece for most. This alone makes the entire crate completely worth it. “Spirit Splinter” is a fantastic “Movie Moment” figure that perfectly captures this emotional moment in the film. His translucent blue paint makes this figure feel like much more than a repaint of the standard Splinter.

He comes with a bag of marshmallows and a stick to roast around the blue fire pit. You can recreate this pivotal moment (if you collected last year’s wave of figures) with a fire pit that lights up as well. It’s an amazing figure that’s a must have and now very hard to get for any TMNT figure collector.

This new venture from Lootcrate is a great idea and made a ton of fans of the original movie very happy. You absolutely get your money’s worth and everything in the box is made with really high quality. Even the headband, which could have easily been a throwaway product, was made with a lot of care and quality material.

If you were lucky enough to get this box, let us know what you think! Other than the figure, what did you like best? Do you like this new Lootcrate idea? Let us know in the comments!

Unboxed! – TMNT Box June 2018

by Kyle Tobey
written by Kyle Tobey

My TMNT box for June 2018 just arrived! Check out what’s inside the package for June 2018!

First up is a keychain based on the forever popular 1989 cartoon series. It is an officially licensed Leonardo, which is pretty cool. The paint job in the eyes were a bit wonky, but otherwise its a well modeled figure to help find your keys. Or Shredder. Whoever is in the area.

Next up is a set of glider planes. The material isn’t great on these, but it’s a fun toy. Featuring deigns from the 2012 cartoon series, these are a fun summer activity for the kids to hang out in the yard.

The quality isn’t amazing, but its very quick assembly and built to be played with. I know most of us are more in to buying a thing and putting it up on the shelf, but these could be a great outdoor activity.

Last, the biggest item in the box. A Ninja Turtles lamp! It has a black base and takes a USB or battery power supply. It features a TMNT character head that lights up with different colors.

 

These products aren’t really for me. I live in a tiny studio in New York City so this box did seem like more clutter than anything. I don’t have kids, so the airplanes are a bit lost on me. The keychain quality isn’t that great and is too big to fit comfortably in a pants pocket. The lamp isn’t very bright and feels more like a night light.

This box is a great gift for kids.

The airplanes are CLEARLY for kids. The lamp is simple enough to use and could be a great decoration to any tiny turtle fans bedroom. But, for a grown man in his 30’s whose fiancee is telling him to get rid of clutter, there isn’t much for me here.

I saw past boxes with t-shirts and patches. I’d much prefer something like that in my mystery boxes. I wonder if a higher price point would mean higher quality product. However, if you have kids,  this is a great value.

TMNT Box is available here starting at $9.99 a month!

Entire set of ZenMonkey Studios TMNT pins

by Kyle Tobey
written by Kyle Tobey

I got an awesome package from Zen Monkey Studios!

They recently released a line of officially licensed enamel pins any Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle fans need to check out. They sent me the entire set to make sure TMNT fans know about them. You can grab any of these for yourself over at their site. But if you need any further convincing, check them all out below!

4 pins together

First up, these four pins show designs based on the 1989 cartoon series, but are posed based on the character select screen from Turtles in Time! These soft enamel pins work really well as a set, or pick your favorite turtle to show off alone. Great for fans of the game or the cartoon.

These two are awesome. One featuring our favorite party dude, Mikey hugging his favorite food. The other featuring the evil Shredder.

 

These two are my favorites of the set.

Featuring the artwork from the original Mirage comic series, these pins show off where the turtles got their start. It’s SO RARE to see merchandise based on the original comic, so kudos to Zen Monkey Studios for really going the extra mile. The smaller pin is so simple but so cool with only the red bandana coloring. The larger hard enamel pin showing the 1st appearance of all 4 brothers made it immediately to my jacket.

I think these are the only officially licensed pins out right now. These are from great people who are clearly fans of the turtles like we are, so make sure to check out their stuff. The pin backings are rubber (which hold way better than the metal clasp, I think) and even the packaging is great.

Last year for New York Comic Con, they had some awesome limited pins for Rick and Morty, Invader Zim, Legend of Korra, and Mystery Science Theater 3000. Let’s hope they give the TMNT the same treatment this year!

Thanks to Josh and our friends at Zen Monkey Studios and the whole team for making a great set! Like what they have? What other designs would you like to see in the future? Let us know in the comments!

If you already sent us an email with a complete survey, we will get to you soon! We want to get to everyone, and we’ve already covered some of you! Keep checking back every Tuesday!

Zackary Garza

My name is Zackarey Garza. I am 34 years old married with two great kids Zakayla Bree she is 9 yrs and Eli Zayden he is 5 yrs old.We live in (Tri-Cities,Wa) Kennewick Washington state. I’ve always have bought toys for my self. And my kids (puzzles,action figures) but just wasn’t a collector for them yet.

I had art pieces, shirts, pajamas, watches etc. Wasn’t until my brother got me a Michelangelo statue and my kids god-fathers parents got me a whole series of black n white ninja turtles that both sets of gifts were so fully detailed that I began to get serious on what I was purchasing from then on.

My collection extends to sweaters, underwear’s, PS3 games, beanie’s, watches. My wife even showed her love for me an allowed me to get the four ninja turtles tattooed on to my left shoulder. Couldn’t find what I wanted from online images. So I had to draw them out n let the tattooist do his magic. Took a total 10 hours to complete them.

I own every Tmnt movie but sadly no cartoons series’s. Was given a C/D / radio player of the mid 90s turtle.  Tucked away a 15 individual Tmnt LEGO figures from blind bags . To a nearly complete set of the NECA 90s Tmnt just wait on the release of the shredder to complete my set.

I’d have to say my grail is a tie between my hand drawn turtles turned detailed tattoos and the NECA 1990 TMNT.

I collect just bought any thing like for instance  the set of tmnt pounder drink glasses down and my set of tmnt shot  glasses. My kids were given a Leonardo play set dungeon, after they broke him an wanted nothing to do with it, I repaired him an now i have him set a side with my wide range of Tmnt collection in storage just waiting for the space to be set up n unboxed in.

Recently bought two retro classic systems for my wife and my self the classic Nintendo with 500 games on it 6 begin the classic tmnt games and the other retro console is the Super Nintendo with the tmnt games installed on it as well.

My favorite version of tmnt is the time they drop there weapons n picked up instruments n be came the nations top charting  rock group . Lol no my favorite version is the first series of cartoons and toys.

My earliest memories of tmnt is with myself an my 3 siblings. We would eat  our breakfast watching the tmnt cartoon, finish our cereal and run to our room grabbing our school backpacks on the way there.

I remember stuffing our bag with cloths rushing  to fill it up to put it on like turtle shell. First one with their shell on named the turtle they would pretend to play as. We would then run outside an begin to battle with sticks.

There is one thing I would like to see made since every type of version has been made already. It would consist to be a very blood n violent sin city film style movie other turtles black n white with beach ninja have their red bandanas let the writers figure out a story line.

Remember! If you want to be featured in a future Turtle Tuesday feature, email us! Kyle@TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles.com
