Vintage TMNT story and coloring books
So I learned that there is a coloring book for A Thing About Rats. One more piece of human 1987 Baxter merchandise to add to my list of what's out there.
I originally set out to look for storybooks when I found that. I spotted the usual storybooks for early season 2 and a lot more I couldn't identify. A couple have the same titles as early Archie issues. Most have completely original titles (The Magic Crystal, Escape from Dimension X, The Final Lesson, etc). Does anyone know if the stories in them are original too or if they're episode adaptations with titles that don't match the episodes? Also wondering whether there were ever story or color or some kind of books for the Z episodes, or at least for Bye, Bye, Fly and/or Son of Return of the Fly II. Don't imagine Revenge of the Fly would have got one, that late in the series' run.

Thank you! That's very helpful. Amusing to think of Ray beating up Shredder. (Or is he not the same Ray as in Rebel Without a Fin?)

Sure! As for Ray, it's his more traditional Archie/Playmates look featured in the story.
