TMNT Playing Cards
 
The other day I baught a deck of TMNT playing cards at Walgreens (99 cents! :lol: ) and I decided to look thru them... now these cards are well...weird! April is the Queen of hearts, diamond, Spades, AND Clubs, Splinter's the King of heards, diamond, Spades, and Clubs... Umm... is there something going on between April and Splinter that they're the King and Queen??? :o

Don is Jacks...all of em...

The Aces are:
Diamonds: Michelangelo
Clubs: Raphael
Hearts: Leonardo
Spades: Donatello

Now...this is the confusing part...Donatello is the Ace of Spades AND Jacks??

Wondering where Shredder is?? He's the 7s...

The Jokers are the TMNT symbol (the turtle with the swords for feet) and the words "Time To Apply Some Turtle Whacks"...which can be found on the TMNT Jockey shorts... :P

That is actually kind of funny. I've bought a set of cards which are different.

Casey: Joker
Leo: Queen of Spades, King of Clubs and Club Ace
Don: King of Spades, Spade Ace and Queen of Clubs
Raph: Queen of Hearts, King of Diamonds and Diamond Ace
Mike: King of Hearts, Queen of Diamonds and Heart Ace
Shredder: Jack of Spades and Clubs
Splinter: Jack of Hearts and Diamonds

I paid around 7 or 8 american dollars for them... Atleast if I calculated right :P

Are these cards especially designed and drawn or do they use just a typical images of TMNT characters? I would like to see Splinter nad April in King's and Queen's robes (and turtles in queen's robes)... Casey should be a jack, not Don.

Best wishes,

*rotflmao*...The turtles are Queens??? :lol:

Unfortunatly they're not dressed all fancy....it's just images of em in different poses. :P

But MAN! I am definatly gonna have to get the regular cards! The deck I got is the mini.... I think I may know where to get the regular sized ones for $5. :evilgrin:

As Garou states - yep! And Don is matched with Leo as Spades/Clubs whereas Mikey is matched with Raph as Hearts/Diamonds... WTF? :ohwell:

I wonder if Garou's deck is designed... It was much more expensive than the one of yours, Raph's Girl :)

Best wishes,

I have both the mini-deck and a standard deck of playing cards (although it's different than Garou's) and the art work is different (mostly) for both decks. They both still use the art we’ve all already seen on everything, of course.

I went through at one point and looked at all the differences. There were quite a few, but they’re still pulling all the art out of their little queue.

I've taken pictures, if anyone is interested. Crappy quality, but all I have is a webcam...

Hope you like :lol:

Thanks Garou for your endeavour, I'm glad I can at least watch them!

I am a bit disappointed. I thought they would be wearing crowns and cloaks and holding apples and sceptres. And they are just like the images ripped from the show.

Best wishes,

Those ones look neat, a lot different from the ones I have. I wonder if it's a strictly non-US release.

I have the cards you only get them In the U.K :evilgrin: :D :) :)

Garou 04-06-2005 11:23 AM

Well, that's not exactly true...

I live in Denmark, which is part of Scandinavia. On the package and instructions, there is written in both Danish, Swedish, Norwegian and English.
