Back
in the late 80’s the most popular toy and cartoon was the Teenage Mutant Ninja
Turtles. The cartoons were so addictive with their great story lines, and
awesome catch phrases. They made every kid in the nation want to be a ninja, or
at least get hurt trying to perform some unsupervised dangerous ninja kick. Yet
what made these heroes so popular was how wonderful their toys were made. They
had awesome details, came with a lot of weapons, and most importantly were very
resistant to wear (give or take a few broken weapons).
So
with this new re-release of the Ninja Turtles from Playmates, celebrating their
25th anniversary; I knew I had to get them all. Luckily I found them on sale,
which made it extra special. The toys are well made, and come as close to the
original 1988 toys as possible. What makes this retro release even better is
that they come with a bonus DVD of the first four episodes of the show.
Blissful nostalgia oozes from my brain to the sound track of “Go Ninja, Go
Ninja, Go” sung by Vanilla Ice. I highly recommend every turtle fan to go out
and buy this collector’s set, it’s Turtlerific!
