How much have you watched/read of each TMNT universe?
 

Just curious to see how much or little people here have been following the TMNT series or what they're most interested in. I'll make the list and you say your exposure to it, I'll say first to give you an idea:

Fred Wolf Cartoon: I've seen all 193 episodes, most many times.

4kids cartoon: I've seen all 157 episodes and Turtles Forever

Movies: I've seen all 4 movies a number of times each.

Next Mutation: I've seen all 26 episodes

Mirage/Tales of the TMNT/Image Comics: I've read all the main volumes, Tales, and most of the specials.

Archie TMNT Adventure series: I've read all the issues except for TMNT special #11.

IDW series: Read all issues so far.


The only stuff I've never seen is the musical stuff, and I just recently watched the TMNT anime OVA for the first time.

I've seen the 87 cartoon in its entirety while it was still on tv, and now I'm collecting the DVDs for round two. I've seen all the movies in theaters, excluding the more recent one. And I've read some of the early issues of the Archie comic series when I was a kid, and I think a spin off series with Ray Filet (?).

My only experience with the 2k3 turtles is the Turtles Forever movie. I don't feel like I'm missing too much since I'm biased towards the 87 show. And I recently caught the Japanese OVA series, and the Coming Out of Our Shells show.

My avatar is actually from one of the OVA specials.

like most on this site I've seen each series in their entirety and read each series (IDW, vol 1-4, tales 1-2, archie main series) tho I'm sure Ive missed a few archie specials I'm still hunting them down (just got the conservation corps special=crazy stupid issue) but the series I keep going back to is the original toon. I go through the fred wolf series about every other year, used to have to watch them on the comp before dvd releases, watching about 3-4 a night in sequence at the moment, just finished season 4, I tell you that season gets a bad wrap I love the majority of those eps...

I've missed some Archie issues as well as a little bit of Vol. 4 but just about everything else I've seen a billion times.

Other stuff
 

You forgot video games and UK Hero Turtles comics (and the TMNT daily comic stripe)

1st exposure and favorite version. Own all the DVDS.

Seen them all and own all the DVDs.

Seen them all and enjoy them all got the vhs and dvds. Seen the first two double digit times easily.

Seen them all and have the East Meets West on vhs,but have only seen the opening episodes since it went off air. Not crazy with this version.


I have vol.1#1-#21 and the Tales mini-series. I only own half a dozen of Tales volume two. I am only so into the black and white comics. Only have #3 of the Image. I got it when I thought I saw Armagoon on the cover and all I got was a dying Donatello. It was too much for me.

I own everythig Archie! First and favorite comic.

Got them all.

I have the muiscal and two Turtle tunes tapes and I have seen the OVA on youtube.

I also own 2/3rds of the video games and read Dan Berger's comic strip as it was released on ninjaturtles.com. During the time Dan manned the official site on his own I was a top contributor. Several random mercahdize peice from the Fugi-relic to Subterean Sewer Hockey and a set of Next Mutation and 2003 wave action figures in the pack as well as the first wave of the original line and a few others MIB with a slew of opened ones in a couple of containers in my basement. I'm currently saving up for a Jim Lawson two character comission since that is the one thing TMNT I am lacking I always wanted.

Fred Wolf: Every episode (inlcuding Turtle Tips)
4kids: About one third of all the episodes (but I've seen clips of nearly all).
Mirage Vol. 1: About one third.
Mirage Vol. 2, Image, Mirage Vol. 4: Haven't seen any.
Archie: About half.
Movies: The first three (but I own the fourth).
Video games: All NES, SNES, and Genesis games plus the 1989 arcade game.
Next Mutation: About half.
IDW: Every issue so far.
Side projects: I've seen Coming out of their Shells, Turtle Christmas, Turtle Tunes, and the first RPG book, as well as clips of the OVA.

I saw all the episodes of all 3 series + OVA's.
I saw all the movies.
Read every mirage issue.
All of Archie.
All of IDW (like it's a lot right now :P)

The only things I haven't seen is the music stuff.
Oh, with a few exceptions I also haven't seen the UK comics like that fast forward one.
