TMNT fans born in '86

I was born in 1986 and I was pretty young to have experienced the original toon but I remember the turtles phenomena of the late 80s/early 90s (more early 90s in my case) and the ninja turtles left a huge impression on me. I loved everything about the early 90s from the NES to the toys to the cartoons. I don't even really remember watching specific episodes of the ninja turtles, I just remember how I felt during that time period. After the early 90s I didn't really like a lot of the cartoons that were on TV (w/ exception of a few Nick and Marvel toons) and never felt the same about any period of time in my childhood after that. To this day I still love the ninja turtles. I own all the seasons of the original toon on DVD, own the first three movies on blu ray and even watch the new Nickelodeon TMNT toon.

Thinking about it I find it strange. It is as if I should have been born 5 years earlier. I was wondering if any TMNT fans born in '86 had the same experience I did and if they preferred the early 90s to the rest of their childhood.
