Nick's TMNT toys coming this fall! Also mentions Sneek peek of the show!

[TurtleTitan97]

Ok, so I was look around the web for some news for the show and i saw this news article, http://www.bsckids.com/2012/02/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtle-toys-coming-in-the-fall/ But the thing that is most exciting about this article is that it mentions... get ready for this:tgrin:... "A sneek peek will air after The Kid’s Choice Awards." How cool is that!:tcool: So rumors of a sneek peek for the show airing after the KCA appear to be true!

[BubblyShell22]

Is this source reliable? While I think a sneak peek after the KCA would be cool and very likely, we haven't gotten any official word of it, and I just can't help but question whether this source is legit or not.

[ToTheNines]

Well if you go to the page that this guy cites (http://www.nickutopia.com/category/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles/), he says a "sneak peak episode" is expected to air after the Kids Choice Awards.

I will flip the eff out if that is true, but I'm not getting worked up until this is further confirmed.

[RAPHAEL#1fan]

I to have heard about this rumor and was wondering if there was any weight to it.

[gobo]

Cool .

[Powder]

If it's not bullsh*t I will eat pizza with gross toppings on it.

[ToTheNines]

Kids Choice Awards are March 31st, plenty of time for an official announcement until then.

I thought I saw August as a more specific release on a different news source, which isn't exactly fall, but in today's "seasonal creep" world, seemingly is. It would be quite a wait for a second episode, so I'd expect perhaps just a minute or two of footage, and recording the voice tracks for all 26 episodes may not be complete yet. But it should give us our first look at the new voices and will definitely ignite this board with ideas. I'd like to see April O'Neil here too as her namesake month will begin just hours after the KCA.

[sdp]

Didn't we get this "rumor" last year as well? And we did get that 5 second animation from it. I doubt we'll get an actual episode but a longer sneak peek like maybe 2-5 minutes I could see that, I mean the show will premier August/September and SDCC '12 isn't until mid July, that's too little time to make the reveal there, so it's very likely they'll reveal info before SDCC. So yeah I see the reveal happening before SDCC and the KCA seems like a good place. I mean we have gotten plenty of small "reveals" already, last year.

I'd still shat.

[Donnie]

It would be most excellent if these rumors prove true...

[TheCanadiandrome]

It would be most excellent if these rumors prove true...

yeah for sure!

[BubblyShell22]

I agree with that. It would be cool.

[FearlessLeader]

I would be thrilled with just an extended trailer. I will keep hoping!!

[Roseangelo]

I would not consider any of these sources reliable. They probably just pulled their info from Wikipedia.

That's where I pulled all the research for my college papers...

OHHH! THAT EXPLAINS THE GRADES!

[sdp]

Except Wiki is usually reliable when it comes to non-upcoming shows/movies ;p

Don't pass the blame on your grades!

[Jester]

Um...not so much. It's editable by anybody. I mean, IMDB is just as bad. At one point they had the actress who plays Sandy Cheeks as a cast member...as a bunny...WHAT!?

[Spitfire]

I've found plenty of useful information on Wiki. Especially on historical things which is what you'd most likely be using it for if you're writing a paper. Everything requires citations so you can always follow the info to the citation for a more "credible" source. Wiki is just a hub that allows you to find other websites of information you might not otherwise. I used Wiki as the base research for every paper I wrote in college and I never got anything lower then a B, and B's were rare.

[ToTheNines]

Just as a comparison: Kung Fu Panda premiered in early November of last year, and got two "special previews" (one in September and one in October).

So while it would seem unlikely we'd get a substantial viewing this early on, you have to consider the fact that KFP:LoA had two movies and a two line leading up to it, while this cartoon is gonna be Nick's first foray into TMNT. So they might want to get the ball rolling a little bit earlier.

[Jester]

Oops....misread. Established facts, yes. Rampant speculation, not so much.

[BubblyShell22]

Yeah, I used Wiki for my Capstone paper and got a B on it.

[Fugitoid Jones]

I would be really content with a short preview. Something to give us an idea of the animation working and the voices. That would be enough for me.

They would probably release the figures before the series premieres, right?

[Donnie]

They would probably release the figures before the series premieres, right?

We keep hearing August as the month of release...which sucks cause it's too far away.

[RAPHAEL#1fan]

Ya I never understood why wait so long for figures to release after they previewed them. I mean you have us hooked now get them out so we can buy them up. I mean August is a long wait I'm sure alot will loose interest by then except hard core fans. Who knows I'll just never get the logic in it.

[ToTheNines]

The toys are for the kids, mane.

[Uki]

Cool if true! I'll be watching with my wife and our 1week, 1 day old baby then! :) what a treat!

The Green Lantern toon had a premiere already and debuts in March (I believe) and Glee premiered long before its first episode...

[Chris]

Congrats Uki!!

And yeah, it seems to be happened more frequently that pilots are being shown a few months before the proper series launch. Really hope this is true for TMNT!

[BubblyShell22]

Yeah, Glee was shown after American Idol before it officially premiered. I think it would be cool for the pilot to be viewed before the actual premiere. It would be nice.

[Chris]

Back on the toy topic - Paula at Playmates replied to my query and said the UK launch for the toys is Spring 2013, so I'm guessing the series will have a similar launch date here (but waiting for Nick UK to confirm this).

[BubblyShell22]

Well, that's cool that someone replied to you and confirmed something.
