Digging their designs, and looks like their weapons will be their pickaxes of course. Hopefully they release soon.

Peter Griffin: Holy Crap! It's the Ninja Turtles! Say the thing!
Mike: What thing?
Peter Griffin: You know the thing!
Mike: Uh... Cowabunga?
Peter Griffin: No!
Mike: ... Boyahkasha?
Peter Griffin: No, like the joke, your famous joke!
Mike: ... Uh... "One Ice Cream and Sashimi Pizza please"?
Peter Griffin: Ehehehehehehehehe! Yeah that's the one, two thing that don't belong on a pizza is the funniest running gag ever, I can't get sick of it ever and I don't see anyone else ever doing so. It's almost as good as the time I heard the word.
Mike: What word?

I play hundreds of games every year and have been playing videogames since 1987, and to this day I have no idea what Fortnite even is.

NEVER played fortnite in my life. But I really love the four turtles and april designs for this game. I think I will finally cave and download it, maybe buy the bundle that has the turtles. might get april too

[Sumac]

Interesting.
Fortnite becomes Super Smash Bros, but for the pop-culture.

I've played it for maybe 30 minutes Couldn't figure out what to do, someone killed me and I uninstalled the game. Speaks volumes about how much interest I had in it, in the first place, LOL.

So, my playtime in this game was extremely brief. I have no idea what exactly is this game nowadays and honestly don't care, but glad for people who like it.

As for TMNT designs - funny, but they look almost like updated Next Mutation designs (from the concept arts, not a series proper). Also, now that's April! Accept no substitutes as they say.

[Zulithe]

Look how easy it is to make turtle and april designs that look both authentic and yet still fresh and new. if only more attempts to 'modernize' the turtles would take such an approach.

Now I'm also wondering if any companies can or will make toy versions of the fortnite turtles.

Yeah it would be a big missed opportunity to not make figures of these.


A look at some of the new Lego skins revealed the turtles will be included there as well: https://x.com/ifiremonkey/status/1732691015125905572?s=46&t=9h7kUN2QQHsTg5iVRVyQxw

[Sumac]

Does it mean Lego once again has rights for TMNT and not Megablocks or whoever had them for the last few years?

Nah, modern creators are so brimming with creativity, they need to butcher all design and raceswap characters. Otherwise no-one will remember them. At least, that's what they think.

Also, I like this younger take on FW April

UPD:

There is definitely a similarity.
Like a combination of designs from Next Mutation (white bands, lots of belts and bandanna on Raph), movies (general bodyshape) and 2k7 movie (headshape) and 2k3 (colors and Mikey expression)

[CyberCubed]

I don't understand these Fortnite skins. Are they just as they seem, skins for the playable character (costumes?), but they're only offered for sale a limited time and then they disappear?

[Zulithe]

Downloaded and played Fortnite for the first time today on my PS5. I suck, but it's pretty fun. I still don't really understand how the skins work. Do I need battle pass to get the turtles? Anyway, excited for them to drop.

That’s basically it, they aren’t part of a Battle Pass.

No you dont.

Unless theyre tied to the battle pass, no. Theyll drop and be available for a few days then the skins rotate to the next one.

[Zulithe]

A lot of vids are now appearing of the new skins.

I think they look really awesome.

Oh and it's Fortnite so, of course, dancing:

[The Deadman]

Theyre eligible for Fortnite Racing? Im in.

[CyberCubed]

I do not like seeing the Turtles use guns.

[Sumac]

Yeah, Turtles with guns are weird.
Also, they are so tall in this version. I got used to them being shorter and "buffer", if it makes sense.

But overall looks pretty cool, even if I am not fan of a bandanna on Raph.

[Zulithe]

I do not like seeing the Turtles use guns.

I don't love it but on rare occasion it's okay. Not like it's the very first time or anything

http://i.imgur.com/Z5xlt5zh.jpg (https://imgur.com/Z5xlt5z)

It's part of being in Fortnite sadly. I mean... Batman doesn't use guns but he does in Fortnite, lol.

[RaphaelinSTL]

Got a good friend of mine who has been trying to get me to jump into Fortnite for awhile, and I thought I'd check it out with the Turtles ... but still not a fan of Raphael in the full bandanna look when no one else has it. Oh well.

[CyberCubed]

I'm really surprised DC, Marvel, etc are ok with their characters being shown using guns in Fortnite. Like Batman or Spider-man, it feels so off-brand.

[Sumac]

Publicity and money make wonders.

[BlueKatana]

DC released a comic explaining Batman knows he’s in some kind of virtual reality and he’s not actually killing anyone, haha.

[BlueKatana]

Looks like they are supposed to be coming out today!

[Zulithe]

Looks like they are supposed to be coming out today!
Just looked around for some news, yeah they should drop at 7pm eastern tonight apparently

[Zulithe]

Four Turtles bundle and April acquired. They weren't really that expensive. I play gacha games and they try to extort you for tons of money. This was reasonable in comparison lol. Considering you get the LEGO versions and can use the turtles in a variety of game modes both present and future (since they keep coming up with new ones), not bad.

[oldmanwinters]

I swear the game ripped the inspiration for the April skin from a 2019 cosplay shoot:

[Zulithe]

Aight, so played Fortnite with a buddy for something like 20 total hours this weekend :lol: He bought Mikey before he even knew I bought the four turtle bundle. I mostly played as Raph, switched to Leo a few times. Then we jumped in with another friend and he had Don... so we were 3 turtles of the four... did pretty good in no build, played a lot of LEGO Fortnite too.

I'm late as hell to this game but hey, it's fun :lol:

[Zulithe]

I'm not sure when the turtles will be leaving the shop, but they probably don't have a lot of time left. Just a reminder for anyone who might be interested.

Reading around in various tmnt and fortnite communities, the response to these has been overwhelmingly positive. Hope we get more TMNT characters.

Oh yeah, and my battle pass is currently lvl 118 if that gives you any idea how much I've been playing this month

[Zulithe]

Updating: turtles are now gone from fortnite shop.

I'm sure someone will post if they rerun down the road.

[Zulithe]

Shredder confirmed for Fortnite. Here is his design

[Sumac]

Ugh.
Why?

They went with relatively good TMNT designs and used most stupid Shredder design?

[Zulithe]

Splinter in Fortnite https://twitter.com/HYPEX/status/1755163322972766550

Shredder and Super Shredder https://twitter.com/HYPEX/status/1755163459376013431

There's lots of neat things coming in this week's update. Including a turtle blimp glider, a krang backbling, pizza box backbling, shredder capes, various emotes, some loading screens including one with new art by kevin eastman

[RaphaelinSTL]

That Shredder looks great!

I'd be more inclided to play if they let you update the way they look a little bit. Is there ever a chance you think they update Raph to have a less full covered bandanna in the future? I love how he looks in that "drop" or whaever it is, haha.

[TigerClaw]

One of the loading screens is done by Kevin Eastman.

There’s a lot of stiff coming via a TMNT Battle Pass including a Turtle Blimp glider!

[Sumac]

Splinter looks elongated.
Regular Shredder is pretty cool and based on IDW.
Super Shredder still a major "EH". In general, I don't like Shredders in all iron armor.

[Zulithe]

LEGO Splinter form confirmed

New TMNT Jam Track. This also comes with a Lobby track, so you can set it as your lobby music as well as play it in Fortnite Music Festival (basically, Rock Band in Fortnite)

It's not really my cup of tea but some people might dig it. Definitely don't like the "God" name drop as the turtles are more likely Buddhist than anything

[Zulithe]

Earned enough ooze to get Super Shredder and the Turtle Blimp today. Anyone else playing? How ya doing? Or am I speaking into a void in this thread :lol:

I still have to work towards the Krang backbling. It takes a lot more quest completions than Super Shredder. Won't have that till next week I think.

[Zulithe]

How's everyone's progress?

So, in a couple more days the last part of the quest chain to get the Krang backbling will unlock. Make sure you complete that before the TMNT pass ends.

There are also rumors that there could be more TMNT skins, likely at least 1 more. Early tomorrow morning is the v28.30 Fortnite patch when we might get some more leaks about that, if it ends up being true.

One final time since I am sure some people are gonna be upset that they miss out... The TMNT pass in the game right now is the only way you can ever get Shredder and Super Shredder, if you miss it then that's that. If you think you want it... might want to hop on that sooner rather than later. The four turtles, april, spinter, their instruments and weapons will likely get occasional returns to the shop though.

[Drose18]

I’m close to the tier right before the Turtle Blimp Glider.

I should be able to finish it out in time

So for the krang back bling, you have to complete all those quests? Thats gonna be brutal I might have to pass on that

[Zulithe]

Nope you only have to complete 5 quests from each drop of quests. So you can skip some. But, if you need more ooze, you can complete more of them.

[Zulithe]

New TMNT item in the fortnite shop

Lil' Turtle Van emote. 500 vbux. This emote is a traversal emote.

[Zulithe]

Last set of quests are up, you can now earn Krang

I believe there are less than 3 days to complete this so get on it if you want him.

2012 intro done with Fortnite TMNT assets :)

And with this... I am sad to announce the TMNT collab in Fortnite has now completed.
