I really think there was a missed opportunity for the 80s Turtles to question how come the Nick Turtles are allies with Slash and Leatherhead.
When the Nick turtles ask why, the 80s turtles would point out how in their universe, they're both villains...and Leatherhead speaks with a cajun accent.

Also, sad they couldn't have 80s April and Splinter appear at some point. I wonder if they wanted to have them in or not.

I can see why the writers didn't bother, besides for time reasons, it's not important enough. Slash only appeared in 3 episodes of the OT and Leatherhead only 4, it's not like they were major characters.

One missed opportunity is never having the two sets of Bebop/Rocksteady meet, which I thought was going to happen before it aired. Not a big deal, but I would have liked to see Nick Bebop say, "Hey homie! Whassup dawg?" to 80's Bebop, and him responding, "Gee, I dunno but I like your glasses." *snort*

And Nick Rocksteady saying, "We are the Rocksteadies, da?" and 80's Rocksteady saying, "What is da? Is that another way of saying duh?"

Ahahaha. 80's Bebop/Rocksteady never spoke with any slang, so it would be funny to see them interact.

Considering both sets of Bebops and Rocksteadys stopped being evil, its probable that they would've met sometime in the future off screen. Would make for some cool fanfiction.

I also found it weird that the 80's Turtles never questioned the absence of Splinter since they met him in the previous crossover.

It's $12.96 at Walmart, plus the tax, came out to a total of $13.87

ToTheNines 09-24-2017 11:32 AM

Yikes. Major ripoff.

Its cheaper elsewhere? right now the receipt was submitted to Walmart's Saving Catcher, it should be checking if other places out there are selling it cheaper, if it finds it, they would give you some credit, that you can use for your next purchase at Walmart.

The Big Rip-Off?:)

Looks like the DVD are priced differently elsewhere, its 14.99 at Target, and 11.99 at Best Buy and Amazon, while 12.96 at Walmart.

Walmart does the saving catcher thing, which normally takes 48 hours, once they find a place that is selling it cheaper, they issue a credit to your account with the difference, so maybe they will notice that Best Buy and Amazon is selling it for less.

The DVD is on pre order for £7.99 (on Amazon) in the UK, i've converted it into dollars which is $10.80

TigerClaw 09-24-2017 02:41 PM

Just finished watching the DVD, I thought this 2nd Crossover is way better then the 1st one, The Ice Cream Kitty Music Video plays right at the end

I think this is a proper send off to both the Nick and the 87 versions.

FredWolfLeonardo 09-24-2017 02:46 PM

A minor nitpick, I do wish this crossover could've atleast had Tiger Claw, since he did have a connection the 80s turtles.

He could've fought alongside the turtles and Karai, since he is in a truce with them now.

We also could've gotten Mona Lisa, Pigeon Pete and Rockwell to appear among the Mutanimals, especially the former two since they are originally FW characters and it wouldve been nice to see the 80s turtles react to them as well as Slash/Leatherhead being allies instead of villains.

Imagine if the 80s Raph met the Nick Mona Lisa, he would make some sort of snarky remark like. "My Mona Lisa is way hotter." lol

FredWolfLeonardo 09-24-2017 02:54 PM

A bit of a shame she didn't appear since she was implied to have joined the Mutanimals in When Worlds Collide.

It would've atleast been nice to see her in the new role for atleast 1 episode.

CyberCubed 09-24-2017 02:56 PM

Yeah, I imagine if the show went on another season we would have seen stuff like Tiger Claw/Alopex working alongside the Turtles, the Mutanimals with Mona and maybe even Bebop/Rocksteady, etc. Probably a second Usagi crossover, etc.

It's why I said this series had story potential to go on at least another season or two.

Still think it's strange that we have the monster arc out, Bebob & Rocksteady coming soon but we've not had the opening arc yet :tlol:

Torn between picking up the two season 4 sets or waiting for the complete season set which we got for the first 3 seasons.

It does have story potential sure, but I don't think its necessary to have another season to add a few extra things we wanted for season 5.

I think 26 episodes for season 5 would've been ideal, 1 more episode for the crossover, 1 more for the Usagi Arc, 1 more for the finale and 3 episodes for an entirely new arc, but I'm happy with what we got so no regrets :)
