How old are you? What's the average age of the Technodrome Member?
 
I tried searching for this, but couldnt search "age" because it was too short a search term. I'm just curious what the average age is around here. I'm curious mostly to see what the percentage is of people that grew up either on the original comics or original toon series.

I am 16. Yo

You could have made it so we can see who has picked what in the poll, you know, to get to know each member more.

Old enough to know better, young enough not to care.

jbeeman85 12-02-2013 02:23 PM

My first exposure to the Turtles was the original cartoon series. It started when I was about 2 (I will turn 28 in a few days).

Mzx10484 12-02-2013 02:24 PM

29 years old. Interesting to see the average age of the forum users.

The Fifth Turtle 12-02-2013 02:29 PM

Born in 84. The year of the turtle.:tsmile:

CyberCubed 12-02-2013 02:33 PM

Sadly, I'm 27.

Realistically I feel like I haven't matured at all since I was 17. I still act the same way now as I did 10 years ago when I was still a teenager. Never grow up.

pannoni1 12-02-2013 02:36 PM

Its good to see that the poll results so far reflect that the majority of members experienced the OT/New Line movies firsthand, and thus is one of the reasons why I like this board so much. I'm 28 currently. I don't know why "Under 10" is an option; those fans are likely (along with some of the 11-15 year olds) at the Nick board.

Slade 12-02-2013 02:36 PM

RaphAndDonnie 12-02-2013 02:36 PM

I'm 15, and I'll be turning 16 next January.

31 years too young for this

BubblyShell22 12-02-2013 03:38 PM

I'm 30 and grew up with the original cartoon. Didn't know you were a year older than me, Zar. Cool.

Jester 12-02-2013 03:40 PM

Celebrated my last birthday last July. Will be 29 forever now.

Trinxant 12-02-2013 03:45 PM

Cowabunga Carl 12-02-2013 04:51 PM

Turned 30 in October.

Michelangelo 12-02-2013 04:59 PM

I'm 32 going on 33 early next year.
Not surprised that most are in the 28-35 group.
Another interesting poll would be to see how many people are from which country.
I am from Australia.
Nice to see there are some older fans and that there are of course younger fans coming on board too.

rickwj324 12-02-2013 05:13 PM

I'm 43 (44 in March '14)!! Been a fan of TMNT since the #1 issue dropped from Mirage! I didn't really collect the figures though as I was around 18 when the figs started coming out. However I bought many of them for my nephew at the time and watched the 80's toon with him every week.

I didn't start becoming a toy collector until years later as an adult (mostly DC Comics stuff). However when the Nick Turtles toys came out I couldn't resist. After buying everything made so far in that line I turned to getting a set of the NECA figs (bootlegs from ebay...still haven't received them yet) and in the last week or two I started buying the old 80's stuff. My goal is to get 1 of every character to display in a glass cabinet. Just in the last couple of weeks I've already purchased more that 50 of the classic toys, plus a lot of the 2003 line. Thanks to several sellers here on the technodrome for helping me out with the hunt!

I just joined here after finding out about it through my search for classic toys. Its a great community here and I look forward to hitting this site every morning!

I'm 31, am turning 32 in Feb of next year. Been a fan since 1988 :D

Luke795 12-02-2013 06:54 PM

I'm 27. I grew up on the Original TMNT Cartoon.

Dawnatello Turtle Chick 12-02-2013 07:12 PM

I'm 29 and grew up watching the OT and still remember getting to go to see Secret of the Ooze in the Theatres. We were pretty strapped for cash growing up and it was a real treat that I got to pick the movie! (probably not such a treat for my patient parents, lol)

Shogun26 12-02-2013 07:53 PM

Also born the year of the turtle, 1984.

Lethal Lullaby 12-02-2013 07:55 PM

I'm 17. I didn't grow up with the old cartoon, but i try to watch what i can. Let it be online or on DVD. Other then that i've watched every Next Mutation *_* (oh no. Never again..) and 2k3 episode. And I'm just watching the nick tmnt as it comes. Sometimes I'll rewatch some 2k3 episodes... Yep :tsmile:

cammy85 12-02-2013 08:00 PM

I'm 34!! I love watching oldschool TMNT!!

Gwydion 12-02-2013 08:20 PM

30 - Grew up on the original cartoon, and while I didn't really get back into the fandom until the Nick cartoon, I kept an eye out for all things TMNT regardless. Almost joined the boards back when the 4kids show was airing, but I couldn't get into it so I didn't. ^_^;;

chrisdude 12-02-2013 08:40 PM

I'm 26. I grew up with the cartoon and the movies. I was watching the cartoon too early in my life to remember starting. But I do remember seeing the third movie in theaters :)

Nameless 12-02-2013 08:44 PM

25 and i have loved turtles for along as i can remember

MsMarvelDuckie 12-02-2013 09:02 PM

Wow- apparently, I'm only the second oldest member here, age-wise, according to the responses so far. I'm 37 TODAY! Yup, today was, in fact, my B-Day, and it looks like I'm older than almost everyone here, from the ages I've seen posted. Great, now I feel REALLY old.....

sdp 12-02-2013 09:03 PM

This topic is depressing, I was but a teenager last time I replied to this and now I'm 27.

Dammit, we're all getting old, aren't we? It feels like the last 10 years since we graduated High School has just flown by.

I remember in the early 2000's still watching Batman/Superman/Batman Beyond/Justice League/Teen Titans, Pokemon, TMNT 2k3, DBZ, X-men Evo...Futurama...etc.

I can't believe this is all 10 years ago now.

PApagreg 12-02-2013 09:10 PM

18 just barely an adult

Dirty Blond 12-02-2013 09:32 PM

I'm 32; it's depressing AF.

shuriken 12-02-2013 09:49 PM

I'm 24. And I've answered a similar thread question at least 4 times.

I am feeling old more and more... My younger sister (6 years younger) visited from college the other day and was saying, "Man I feel so old!" then she looked at me- she says "But then I think of how old you are and I feel better!" Yeah, that comment made me feel grrrrreat.... Thanks sis!

victory_angel 12-02-2013 11:22 PM

I'm 31, but if you saw me in person you'd be surprised I'm that old.
