06/28/2004 Entry: "Toddler Turtles & TMNT Mutagen!"

I love these figures, and you will too. Playmates has finally unleashed the Toddler Turtles four-pack, featuring each of the Ninja Turtles as little kiddies with less painful weapons and more innocent smiles. They're really some of the best toys I've seen out there in the past few years, and if you were ever a TMNT fan, don't even bother trying to pass 'em up. I would've paid double or triple the eight bucks they ran without feeling the least bit ripped off. Okay, maybe not triple. The next article should be killer...expect it tomorrow afternoon or early Wednesday. Or never.

While we're on the subject of TURTLES, you've gotta check out this shit I found. Okay, at Toys 'R' Us or a reasonable facsimile -- you know that section of the store with all of the party favors and whatnot? The one spot you never really bother with? Well, break the code. There's something great tucked in there, and it's cheap cheap cheap. A set of four small TMNT mutagen tubs, featuring this entirely too kickass slime that's more like Play-Doh than anything you'd get out of a vending machine. You can totally mold shit outta this stuff, and it's a lot sweeter smelling than most toy slimes to boot. I know a lot of the new figures come with a much more impressive barrel of mutagen, but this is a slime of a different kind. Definitely worth hunting down.

The party favors aren't new entries, and I doubt more are being produced. If any of your local stores have it, rest assured that it's the last of their stock. In other words, get away from your computer. Get out of the house. Get in your car or on your magic flying bike. Buy the Toddler Turtles and the almost-bootleg mutagen party favors. You know it's what you want. Don't deny yourself victory.

Slime, is there anything better ?

Pre. Teen. Turtles.

Ugh.

Oh come on, they're great!

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 06/28/2004 04:07 PM EST


How cute are those? I want to hug them and squeeze them and call them George.

Chestnuts roasted by Kay @ 06/28/2004 04:09 PM EST


they look kind of cheap, makes me wish my mom didn't throw out my old TMNT action figures

Chestnuts roasted by Steve @ 06/28/2004 04:11 PM EST


There ae a lot of flashbacks in the new show, so the figures aren't continuity-less. Ma collects turtles, and she really likes TMNT, so I might find these for her. Iwant figures based on the Anime Super Turtles.

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 06/28/2004 04:18 PM EST


If you're saying we see Toddler Turtles on the show, I'm saying I need to track down a compilation tape. Wasn't there supposed to be a DVD set of the first few seasons? I can't find it.

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 06/28/2004 04:19 PM EST


.... I forgot what I was gonna say... sad

Oh yeah! That wrestler he-man knock off thing looks like Jesus!

Chestnuts roasted by Paul @ 06/28/2004 04:33 PM EST


Now I've seen everything!

And Krang watches in the background...

They could take krang 1 on 1. Hes just a brain smile

Chestnuts roasted by heeloyd @ 06/28/2004 04:35 PM EST


so cute! by the way, the guy they're attacking at the end is a generic Big John Studd wrestling figure. i know cause i had the same figure as a kid.

Chestnuts roasted by Chris @ 06/28/2004 04:37 PM EST


I could definately see Toddler Turtles getting their own show ala Muppet Babies and that horrible Flintstones kids crapfest. Damn that pup named Scooby-doo too. Probably should have done it 15 years ago when cartoon "baby" versions were all the rage. Don't get me wrong though I love the Todd Turts.

Chestnuts roasted by Blah...blah @ 06/28/2004 04:37 PM EST


I liked Pup Named Scooby Doo, I used to watch it right before school started when they were airing reruns on cartoon network (right after that baby max cartoon, wow those were shitty days) I think that was 5th grade... Ok you're right it was yesterday

Chestnuts roasted by Paul @ 06/28/2004 04:47 PM EST


No wonder Raph's mad, look what hes given as a weapon, I think I now understand were all the hatred and resentment came from, still pretty cool though, good to see the revived, wonder how long till a remake of the movie smile

Chestnuts roasted by Naveed @ 06/28/2004 04:48 PM EST


Being that I was a big fan of the original comic series, and only about 1/4 as much of a fan of the less violent, more kiddy oriented cartoons, I'll probably pass on these. There were definitely no toddler days for the turtles in the Eastman and Laird comics. I'm sure if I was primarily a fan of the cartoon I'd be much more enthusiastic about the young 'ens.

Chestnuts roasted by a piece of milk @ 06/28/2004 05:06 PM EST


Hah, yes, I guess this must be a pisser to the old comic fans. Reading that biocard must pain you. smile

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 06/28/2004 05:07 PM EST


I love them! They are so cute! Now I must run out and buy lots of them to give to all the little kids in my family! Thanks Matt!

Chestnuts roasted by Nikki @ 06/28/2004 05:12 PM EST


As a box-opener at KB toys, I have to tell you that these elusive figures are, in fact, elusive. I've only seen 1 package of them in every 24 pack box. Its one of the more rarer figures, like the Ultra Mouser or one of the deformed rock-eating humans.

Chestnuts roasted by Invader Norbert @ 06/28/2004 05:12 PM EST


Interesting. They're not being sold that high on eBay for some reason, so if you can't find 'em in stores, check there.

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 06/28/2004 05:16 PM EST


Drat, I was at Toys'R'Us at lunch and saw the TMNT stuff and thought how odd they still had that old junk...

I should have gotten some, was shopping for my nephew's 12th b-day.

I remember watching TMNT after school as a French-Canadian teenager, at the time I could barely scrape together 3 words in English. I loved watching cartoons because the language was simpler than sitcoms. My favourites were TMNT, GI Joe and the #1 of all times: JEM. Yes, it's girly stuff, but, well, I am a girl. So.

No news of a not-so-old Splinter or pre-teen April?

Chestnuts roasted by Yzziefrog @ 06/28/2004 05:33 PM EST


Yzzie, FYI: they just released a bigass Jem DVD box set. Looks absolutely awesome.

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 06/28/2004 05:34 PM EST


They kinda look like the old TMNT's, don't they? Well, with the goofy grin bit.

Chestnuts roasted by Freezair @ 06/28/2004 05:36 PM EST


wow.. to be frank I was born in 1988, therefore a bit too young to remember the turtles, but I do have some old action figures that are kind of neat.. anyway.. These look kind of interesting..maybe I'll just get em for the hell of it.I saw that slime at a party store too, that and foam ninja stars. crazy world we live in.

God, why do I always seem to catch the eps where none of the really good stuff happens? Without trying to spoil it, have they gotten to the "pink thing" yet?

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 06/28/2004 05:48 PM EST


Matt,

Amazon has the DVD for volume one with the toddler in it. You can also check out www.ninjaturtles.com for upcoming figure release,episodes,and guides.

P.S. have you seen Baby Popeye? Go to www.cartoonbrew.com and see for you self. Just scrow down and it should be there.

Chestnuts roasted by Spongebob @ 06/28/2004 05:50 PM EST


Damn. Now the article's musings won't make much sense to those who've seen the toddlers on the show. Then again, when I speak of them there toitles, I'm talking about their personas circa the old cartoon 99% of the time.

I'll pick up some DVDs on my next outing to DVD Land. Couldn't hurt.

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 06/28/2004 05:52 PM EST


JEM DVD sets??? Can't wait to see them turn out at the second-hand CD store.

Can't afford them new, taxes and stuff in Canada make it out of my league.

Chestnuts roasted by Yzziefrog @ 06/28/2004 05:56 PM EST


Without trying to spoil it, have they gotten to the "pink thing" yet?

Matt,

Yes, they have gotten to the "pink thing or things". That's all I will say without spoiling it. It is in Season 2 in case you were wondering.

Chestnuts roasted by Spongebob @ 06/28/2004 05:59 PM EST


Cool, thanks. Gonna be pretty cool to watch the gamut of episodes in a few sittings. I went through the same thing with Beast Wars after only getting into it well after season three began. I'm sure I'll love it.

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 06/28/2004 06:00 PM EST


Is it wrong to call this one of my favorite articles just because I love the crayon header with the "I'm 2!" turtle? I hope not.

Chestnuts roasted by Crayola @ 06/28/2004 06:16 PM EST


Matt, will Saban's version of the turtles get any X-E love? Sure it was bad, but it hearkened back to the Krofft-lite original GhostBusters from Filmation: www.protoncharging.com/ghostbusters/fgb.shtml
http://members.tripod.com/whittakill/ghostsounds.htm

Michael Ian Black (The State, Ed, and also known from over use of gay reference humor on VH1 countdowns) and Ben Garant (The State and Reno 911) were once mall Ninja Turtles:
www.stellacomedy.com/website_press/onion.htm
"O: Michael Ian Black, I've read that you toured America as a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. Is that true?
MIB: That's true. Michael [Showalter] was in How I Learned To Drive, which won a Pulitzer Prize. I was in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
DW: Which won a Tony.
O: What was it like touring America as a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle?
MIB: In a word: smelly. My primary memory is that it was smelly, and that there was a lot of pizza involved.
DW: My understanding was that you were not actually in the show, but rather did the live appearances in malls and stuff before the show.
MIB: That's right. Me and Ben Garant from The State toured the country promoting the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for the show. We were turtles promoting other turtles.
O: Was that a fulfilling experience?
MIB: It was, actually. It was a fulfilling experience financially for me at the time. I was 18 or 19.
O: Do you ever wish you could reprise that role?
MIB: I have. Many times."

Its agreed: slim is cool and turtles are awesome.

Chestnuts roasted by Dancer @ 06/28/2004 07:57 PM EST


I think the Turtle Tots should get their own show. A pre-pubescent Shredder would be the bully at their dojo. Yeah, I know that leaves HUGE plot holes in the continuity of the story, but these are so friggin' cute that you could excuse oversights.

Wouldn't you want to see Shredder in a helmet and shoulder pads that he made out of his mom's pots and pans?

Chestnuts roasted by IncogNegro @ 06/28/2004 08:12 PM EST


Anyone remember during the cartoon (old series) that Shredder got hold of some mutagen that turned the turtles into baby turtles? They had to work together to get transformed back. I think even Splinter got changed into a juvie.

Chestnuts roasted by GhengisX @ 06/28/2004 08:13 PM EST


Hey, Matt, I usually don't ask questions, but have you ever thought of finding some Tiger Beat magazines from the mid-90s and reviewing them?
That would be interesting.

Chestnuts roasted by AngeFaitore @ 06/28/2004 08:27 PM EST


I do have a few TBeats...the only reason I haven't reviewed 'em is because it'd be pretty much limited to making fun of washed out celebs' faces. Though some of the articles could be lampoonable.

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 06/28/2004 08:30 PM EST


Damn, those are some cute baby turtles. I must have them!!!

My 2 cents on the new show- it is far and away better than the original. Don't get me wrong, I loved the original, but the new show just kicks so much more ass.

Chestnuts roasted by 4thDown @ 06/28/2004 09:30 PM EST


Thanks Matt, another cute thing I have to buy my girlfriend >_< Actually I think I remember seeing those guys at the local Target, and since I was with my friend whom, when we wander malls all we do pretty much is make fun of every single thing we look at espeically in toy stores, all I did was say something like "WHat the hell are these? They look like little pirates...all 4? Wow...hey this Hulk figure is dressed in a stupid suit! blah blah", maybe ill actually buy them since they dont sound too expensive.
Also, Matt, my man, you ever gonna do a new MUSCLE article? I have a shitload if you need any.

Chestnuts roasted by Mr. S @ 06/28/2004 09:43 PM EST

Just to let you know (like you care),the figure that the turtles are attacking is a bootleg WWF Big John Studd figure.

Thats one to grow on

I take issue with the Donatello comments in the article, I hated him. Leo was my fav, and when I was 6, I had a full on, multi piece Leo costume for halloween. I won a costume contest with it, and it allowed me to see under my blindfold to win pin the tail on the donkey. I don't condone cheating, the the prizes were WWF cards, I had to.

Chestnuts roasted by Rob @ 06/28/2004 11:53 PM EST


Scratch the first "the", meant "but the", not "the the".

Chestnuts roasted by Rob @ 06/28/2004 11:55 PM EST


Actually, these Toddler Turtles are so cheap because they are all just the same toy repainted. Makes it cheap to do a 4 pack.

And one of the comics actually had a slightly younger group of Turtles getting into a fight with some gangers and the Turtles had these toys' headscarf things on instead of their normal masks.

The new Turtles show really does take its cues from the old TMNT Mirage comic book.

Chestnuts roasted by Bloodcat @ 06/29/2004 12:22 AM EST


Leo would't condone cheating either, Rob.

I know it's not even close to the same continuity, but a Toddlerized version of Bebop and Rocksteady would be fucking AWESOME.

Speaking of WWF, how about a review of an episode of Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n Wrestling? So this is still on-topic, anyone know of any plans to release the original TMNT cartoons on DVD?

Chestnuts roasted by Destro @ 06/29/2004 01:35 AM EST

Chestnuts roasted by ojos_rojos @ 06/29/2004 01:44 AM EST


They have released the first season of the original series with four previously unseen episodes. Go to dvdpacific.com they're super cheap even for me and i live in Australia. Anyway got the dvd for my sister and brother and they love it

They're not just cookies. They're *sandwich* cookies.

Chestnuts roasted by thh @ 06/29/2004 02:59 AM EST


I remember reading some of the comic books. All I can remember is the turtles getting eaten by a giant cowhead, then competing in a wrestling match or two. Also, wasn't Raphael turned completely black?

Anybody know what I'm talking about or I am doomed to continue making up more memories, to replace the terrible ones I have of my dad beating me with a sock full of nickels?

Chestnuts roasted by ZDubs @ 06/29/2004 03:07 AM EST


I prefer the Mirage comics too, a piece of milk. But, I still like these figures. And, you gotta admit, the New Cartoon does a better job of followinhg the comics than the old one did.

I still wish they'd make a darker, late-night, just-like-the-comics series, though. Where the turtles all have red masks and actually kill the Shredder.

BTW Matt, will we ever see a Bucky O' Hare article, here?

Chestnuts roasted by Tetsu Deinonychus @ 06/29/2004 03:13 AM EST


What a coincidence--or not. I just finished re-watching Ninja Turtles 2 today. Haven't seen it since--I must have been 14--ten years ago??? I forgot how much fun that movie was. "A little too Raph," still makes me laugh. But Vanilla Ice makes me laugh more . . . but in that man-falls-down-sewer-and-cracks-skull-open kind of funny.
I just picked up Liam Lynch's "Fake Songs" album today (with bonus DVD), any other Liam "Sifl and Olly" Lynch fans here? And no, this is not a paid endorsemend.

these new baby toitles look pretty good!! Matt,I just want to know, was there anything in those Turtle Pie wrappers, or did you just puff it up so it looks full to tease us?

I love Sifl and Olly and was really pissed when MTV took it off the air. It was my only reason to watch MTV, and I guess I really haven't watched it since.

Chestnuts roasted by kidneyboy @ 06/29/2004 10:43 AM EST


For some reason, I hear them talking kinda like Stinkoman K from H*R, "The fighting was decent, but it wasn't much of a Challenge."

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 06/29/2004 11:46 AM EST


Hey matt – have you ever seen the Japanese TMNT cartoon (made back in 96 I think)– It only last 2 episodes (that I know of) but Shredder got turned into a dragon – Crang was a total idiot – the turtle could turn into super powered anime style guys and then could all join together into a “super turtle Voltron thing guy” – and tons of gratuitous ninja minions (they even call themselves that)- all the while the foot were taking a vaction on some beach. It was like a total parody of the American cartoon while trying to be a Japanese American cartoon. It's hard to find but you really need to review it.

here's the proof

Intersting. Looks like something they would've done in the early 90s with the Treasure Troll turtles and the monster movie turtles. If I had extra money, i'd proboly grab them for shits and giggles. Same goes with the mutagine.

Chestnuts roasted by Corey F. @ 06/29/2004 06:25 PM EST


Gotta agree with Rob, Leo was the most badass, he had the best weapon and, like in the newest cartoon was the best fighter and most badass ninja, if they made another film of the Turtles Russell Wong would play Leo cos he's a badass too. But not the voice, nope, that would be silly, has anyone seen the original trailer for TMNT? I have the English DVD and the trailer hasn't been dubbed by whoever did the voices, even Corey Feldman is missing, it sounds like some chinese dude who is only just learning English cos it don't sound like the cool Mickey we know and love when he screams 'God I love being a Turtle!' Man I gotta get out more.

Chestnuts roasted by Dax @ 06/29/2004 06:39 PM EST


Gotta agree - Leo was my favorite too! Disliked Donatello a lot, I guess 'cause he reminded me somewhat of Simon from the Chipmunks. Always meddling around and being nerdy and stuff.

Yeah, but Donatello could kick Simon's ass hands down. I I know that Leonardo is Alvin, but is Theodore Michaelangelo???

Chestnuts roasted by Joe @ 06/30/2004 12:44 AM EST


Matt-Was it really 15 hours? And I'm not sure which episode that Full House reference refers to. Furthermore, I notice that in that last pic, there is a Krang without a body. I guess when the turtles were toddlers, Krang did not yet have his android body. Dammit, why didn't the TMNT just kill him then when they could've and put an end to his evil reign. Or maybe he was a good guy back then. I dunno, what do you think, Matt?

Chestnuts roasted by Nate @ 06/30/2004 01:15 AM EST


Damn you, Matt! I just spent an hour of my 19th b-day going to 2 different Toys'R'Us to find those damn toddler toitles. The last time I bought TMNT was like 1992. But they make me go apeshit though, they are that cool.

Chestnuts roasted by Prezkot @ 06/30/2004 03:42 AM EST


Hey Matt, thanks for the article, you've made a believer out of me. I'm buying these as soon as I see 'em. smile

And the new show is great, can't wait til you see it. I bet I can think of one or two parts that'll probably knock your socks off.

And about Beast Wars, would love to see a follow-up to that article you did on the Maximals that time... maybe something with the Predacons? Or toy reviews would be good.

Peace!

I saw that blurb about the Japanese Ninja Turtue show, and I know that they dubbed at least some of the American cartoons into Japanese as well. I'm speaking from firsthand experience here, I watched the episode where Donatello makes that time-freezing ray. Actually, of the four Turtles, he sounded the most like his English counterpart.

Kickball Casey
Wouldn't an 8 Year old Casey Jones action figure be cool? Oversized golfbag filled with halves of broken sports equipment (Property of P.S. 999), and a creepy-on-a-kid hockey mask. Oh, and a kickball, so the name fits.
Ah, the first years of his mental illness showing up.
Showing those playground bullies who's da boss.

Ratcage Student Splinter
Splinter still as a rat but with buttons on the outside of the cage base, you can make him kick and punch. Perhaps a figure of his old master, that also does the moves, so it looks as if the rat is learning.
Despite all his rage.

Were the toddler turtles the missing link in helping the Joes in Cobra Chia Plot Part 5? Now that you have them, can I have some closure?

Babysitter Krang With:
-Mommy's-Little-Miracle bottle of NyQuil.
-Otter*Pop Rail Cannon, to quiet thier insipid cravings of flavoered ices.
-Mutagen super-soaker to make sure any pizza they have delivered is always free. Funny, they always change into cockroaches...
-Princess Telephone to call Shredder and Bebop on Splinter's dime. Not rocksteady, rocksteady is a little tramp.

I think by "Dark Horse" you were searching for "Black Sheep". Raphael is the black sheep of the turtles, right? He's not going to sneak up and win an election.

I have some first edition turtles figures in my attic, to think that I could be rich if I just didn't open them (and for some, break them).

Since nobody responded to the question about the comics earlier, I guess I will, even though it may well be no one will read this.

That was the Archie Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures comic. I'm not entirely sure what the deal is with the continuity; The first issues already seem to have Shredder, Cartoon pre-fly Stockman, April and others, but it rapidly went off in its own direction.

The floating cow head was Cudley the Cowlick, who worked for the Intergalactic Wrestling Federation, as run by Stump and, um, someone else. Stump was a Stump with arms and legs, and Someone Else was this sort of tree-man who had money instead of leaves.

Anyway, somehow they had heard about the turtles, and used Cudley to bring them over to wrestle in the promotion. A few others were there, I believe Leatherhead (Previously thought dead after an incident involving the cosmic cube's spherical doppleganger) was present.

The federation didn't think the turtle's old costumes had any spark to them, so they gave them new ones, including an all-black bodysuit for Raphael, which he wore for a bit even after he stopped wrestling.

Confusing as that is, things didn't really get weird until androids from the future to kill the mighty mutanimals and sharks teamed up with primeval forces of destruction to bring terror to the world.

There was also this chick who could turn into an eagle.

I believe there are two episodes of the original cartoon that feature the Toddler Turtles:

Back to the Egg
Leo and Mike become Toddler Turtles in this episode thanks to Krang's serum that reverses age. They get back to normal by eating pizza with antidote on it.

Adventures in Turtle Sitting
Leo, Don, and Raph become Toddler Turtles in this episode thanks to Mike's misuse of Don's Food Revivafiver. They get back to normal by falling into the ocean.

The Archie Comics version of TMNT did some "toddler" turtles stories awhile ago. It was called 'The Early Years' and the did a single story (issue 58), then a two part story arc (issue 71 and 72). It was actually really good, those turtles were filled with just as much piss and mutagen when they were kids. If these Toddler Turtles strike up your imagination of what the turtles were like as pre-teens, I suggest you check out 'The Early Years'.
