(( Ohh... I am just beside myself...! ))
Here's the note, in case some people aren't on the TMNT updates list. :smile:

Howdy folks!
Mirage C.E.O. Gary Richardson just got back from a frantic but exciting week
at the Electronic Entertainment Expo and had some news for us!
We expect to announce the software company that will be producing the new
TMNT video games sometime around June 10-14. Development time for a game on
the new platforms (PS2, Gamecube, X-Box) is currently around 18 months - so
the game won't be out for quite some time. It's possible that a game for
Gameboy will come out before that 18 month cycle - but it's not a sure bet
by any means. We'll have more definitive info on publisher and platforms in
a few weeks!
In toy news, there's a possibility that some extremely limited edition cold
cast statues of the TMNT will be released over the next year (in editions of
roughly 500-1,000). The plan is to take the image from TMNT volume 1 #1 page
1 of the Turtles and make each into an individual statue with a base - the
bases will interconnect to form a diorama.
Here's a link to the page to check out the image being discussed:

The tentative plan is for the first statue to come out at the Comic-Con in
San Diego this summer, the second is to be released around the winter
Holidays, the third to appear around the time that the new cartoon debuts,
and the fourth to arrive at next year's San Diego Comic-Con. These statues
may be done as serious and expensive collectibles - so the retail price will
be roughly $99.00 per figure. Yowza! It's not a definite plan yet - but it's
something that's on the drawing board.
Cheers!
