What's The Surprise?

Official TMNT social media keeps saying this coming Saturday, SDCC (San Diego Comic Con) will feature a big surprise for the property. They haven't given any hints. What's your guess?

Here are mine:

A new comic series independent of the main IDW book, be it IDW's own Tales Of The TMNT, Tales From The Turtleverse (same idea but involving multiple continuities- Archie, Mirage, etc), Movie tie-in (yes, I know Bobby said they didn't want anything to do with it but that doesn't mean it wouldn't still happen somehow), or something else.

A new animated series. The new flick is getting pushed quite heavily, & their new IOS game features the PD designs in animated form. Perhaps an action cartoon in the vein of that could be afoot. Half-Shell Heroes was rumored to get a cartoon at one point. Perhaps a resurgence or reboot of the OT?

A direct to DVD animated feature based on the comics. Something fans have wanted for over a decade. Makes sense.

A theatrical film for the Nick series. Pretty much every vastly popular animated series on Nick in the last decade has gotten a theatrical film, if not one made for TV (like Fairly Oddparents). Could happen. Would be sweeeeet, too.

The return of Eastman & Laird in some capacity, be it attached to one of the previously theorized projects, or a new venture. There's no better time to get back together than for the 30th anniversary. They've had an appearance together, worked on some new covers, & gotten together for the Turtle Power documentary on at least one occasion, if not more, as Isaac has hinted.

We already know there are multiple toy/collectible companies getting to play with the license, so it's safe to assume this will not be a mere action figure/statue release.
