So...what's left for the big 2-5er?

[Jester]

With the new TMNT animated series ending at the end of the present season (no talks have been started on a new season as of the posting of this thread) and no new movie is proposed to cash in on the 25th anniversary, what exactly do we Turtle fans have to look forward to for the Shell-abration?

Playmates is re-releasing it's "classic" 1989 line of TMNT figures. Kinda cool, but as people have said, we can track them down on eBay. Heck, I have MOC TMNT and complete (if I looked long and hard for the accessories) Bebop and Rocksteady. I might army build with the Foot but that's about it. They are also releaseing retooled movie figures to cash in on the success of NECA's first comic based line.

And speaking of NECA, what do they have coming down the pike for the 25th anniversary? We don't know, because they refuse to speak to Mirage. We've seen and salivated over wave 2 only to have it jerked back from out gaping maws at the last minute.

From Mirage itself we can expect trades, which is pretty cool. Collected TMNT comics, FTW. As an Archie fan boy, I'm waiting with baited breath for the Forever War and the accompanying trade. It will make the 25th for me.

So aside from these offerings, and of course let us not forget the Turtle Van World Tour, which I doubt is for us old-timer, hard core fans, what do we have to look forward to in celebration of 25 years of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?
