–>> During the CYBER WEEK deal madness, Tokka managed to snag Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Complete Classic Series Collection for a good price of 59.99 which included shipping.
While that cyber deal is over, looking back online for more deals for Hannukah and the rest of the holiday season on the Lionsgate Super release i have found 3 decent deals on the set well under the SRP of about 99 bucks. ::
I’ll let everyone know if i fond more deals on this much wanted set in case fans out there are still struggling to get it a decent price ( ****or let me know if you find a better price point to help your fellow fans out !! -tOkKAb2@terrible2z.com ) .
BUYER BEWARE :: Look, this release is awesome..but KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GETTING HERE !!
This is a great set if you’ve never purchased an official release hardcopy of the classic series, getting this as a gift for a fan, or if you are a hardcore fan and loving the cleaver Turtle Van packaging !!
But what this really is IS a fancy repackaging of every single TMNT Original Series DVD that has come out from 2004 – 2012.
So if, like many fans i know ..you have purchased each LIONSGATE release religiously since 2004 and can do WITHOUT the fancy packaging .. you actually ALREADY HAVE THIS ENTIRE SET !!
Also unfortunately the ***Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Legend of the Supermutants OVA anime ( part of the original TMNT show continuity ) is not included in this set .

–>> The newest edition to American Greetings’s Holiday Ornament collection is a really cool “RETRO” styled Raphael. Hotly sold since September, the item should be relatively inexpensive and hopefully available at major retailers that sell A.G. products or Carlton Cards stores.
Two variations of the ornament exist in packaging only. The free hanging ornament ( the one seen here purchased at Toys R’ US ) was around a $7.00 price point or so, the exact same ornament in a boxed package was about $ 4 – 5 higher at around a $12 tho’ there have been specials recently in some locations offering the box A.G. ornaments at a slight discount pending where you shop. The box ornaments may be on an end-cap display with other A.G. licensed ornaments like Transformers, Care Bears, Dora the Explorer, ect. The ornament has been appearing on ebay in a very few cases for as much as $30 which is way too much.
So unless you’re desperate, look around your hometown at places like Khol’s, Kmart, TRU, or Carlton Cards ( & / or check their websites to purchase ) amoung other stores that sell A.G. products before you buy at auction online.

On this note, looks like ***tvshowsondvd.com has the first bits of info on the first traditional DVD release of the NICK Turtles as well as potential box art ::
Emerging from their hidden lair in the sewers for the very first time, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are ready to explore the hostile streets of NYC. Join these four super dudes – Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo – as they face enemies more dangerous, and taste pizza more delicious, than anything they could have imagined!
A few days ago Nickelodeon announced that February 26th will see the release of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – Rise of the Turtles, a DVD title with the first episodes of the new 2012 CGI-animated series. We didn’t have a lot of info about this item at the time, but now our friends in the retail industry have passed along info showing that this is a single-disc title running 145 minutes for 6 episodes. You’ll also get 6 behind-the-scenes Animatics (one for each episode), and a Karaoke Music Video for “Learning the Theme Song.” Cost is $14.99 SRP, and you can pre-order it from Amazon at the button link below. We also have an early look at possible front box art for this title, but it is not finalized and could be subject to change .. –
