The Third Great TMNT Renaissance

I'm curious what the old timers like myself think about seeing the three great booms in TMNT popularity. The first of course I consider the original 1980/90's TMNT TV Show and Movies, the second the 2003 4Kids series and TMNT CGI movie, and now the third with the Nick series and Michael Bay live action film.

In the perspective of pure numbers of people alive on the planet the third seems like the biggest, but somehow the first felt like it was much more incorporated into the public zeitgeist. Then again maybe that was because I was so young at the time, a TMNT lunch box would be hard to explain during a corporate meeting today. Unless your company is awesome I suppose.

So those who have lived through all three, how do you feel watching the TMNT grow up with you through the years?
