Out of all the super hero anthropomorphic warriors type shows they made with the success of TMNT, Biker Micer was the only one I really liked (I do not count Toxic Crusaders, though). Street Sharks, Extreme Dinosaurs... that stuff left me cold. Biker Mice rocked.

To early to begin making new episodes of Biker mice from mars.
But it could be nice to see what kind of reaction the younger public would give em.

Yeah, i agree the animation looks a bit scrappy and even odd to me. Maybe my eyes were deceiving me in the video, looked like 3-d imagery was mixed in with the 2-d.

Anyway, i'm surprised with this, the Biker Mice coming back from the dead, they were one of my fav 90s cartoons. Nice find.

Woohoo, i just found out in one clip of the new cartoon, that the cat-looking fella in the war admiral get-up sounds very much like Rob Paulsen (voice of Raphael in 80s TMNT series). The TMNT-Biker Mice links/homage continues!

The heroic Martian Mice Freedom fighters continue to battle forces who seek to destroy them and steal their valuable assets. This time around, it's the evil Catatonians, a cat-like race of creatures who desire the greatest prize on Mars - The Regenerator.

You see, while Mars once had ample supplies of water, those days passed into history when the planet was strip mined by the conquests of the Plutarkians. Today, the Martian Mice are dependent upon the Regenerator to create their water. It is a brilliant machine created by the equally brilliant GENERAL STOKER. Without it, it is only a matter of time until all of Martian Mousedom will perish. But the Catatonians have their own problems. With their own planet turned into a used up litter box, they must seek new planets to convert into giant sandboxes so necessary to the life of a cat. With the Regenerator in their paws, the Catatonians would possess the ability to transform any body of land anywhere into a giant litterbox fit to sustain Catatonian life. The fact that the Catatonians are the natural enemies of the Martian Mice is just a bonus.

The Catatonians have succeeded in getting their claws on the Regenerator only to have it destroyed ! But as fate would have it, Stoker created two such Regenerators. The bad news is that the second Regenerator has been stolen by the infamous Chicago based real estate developer, RONALDO RUMP. Rump has used the powerful device to turn the Windy City into a RUMP DEVELOPMENT and he doesn't intend to stop there. If Rump can acquire enough Regenerator power, he plans to turn Mexico into the largest Rump Golf and Hotel Resort in the World not to mention his desire to melt the Polar Ice Caps to create virgin beach front property! And so as the Biker Mice From Mars return to the city of Chicago, they must not only capture the Regenerator in time to save their planet, the must stop Ronaldo Rump from turning Planet Earth into one large Rump Development while continuing to battle the Catatonians who also seek the Regenerator. So begins the epic journey of the Biker Mice From Mars. They are back riding some of the most awsome motorcycles ever designed! Rev up your engines and get ready to put the pedal to the metal because, once again, it's time to ...

ROCK AND RIDE!


So it's a continuation of the series rather than a completly new version, at least this means Limburger and the old cast can show up, and they can build up more on Vinnie and Charlie's potential romance.


Nightshift



He's a mystery. While you will learn soon enough that he is the alter ego identity of another character in the series, we are left to wonder whether we will have seen the last of him by the end of episode two... Or will he return? And if he returns, whose side will he be playing for?

Well for one thing this has nothing to do with the new TMNT movie. However I will answer your question.

No...it only airs in Australia.

The US are getting the series in 2007.

As for the series' quality, have no worry, the animation may look a little inferior, but being set in the same continuity and having the same vocie actors makes it all the sweeter that it sticks to the series mythology. Plus the in-jokes are a level of humour not seen in many shows since the 1990's

However, because it was produced in collaberation with the UK for a more european based toy and DVD market, there are a lot of British in-jokes, none as much more blatant than this little gem making fun of Richard Branson. Notice how the store is called "B.S"

I really hope this isn't on cable, but it probably will be. Out of all the Ninja Turtle wannabees out there, this was by far my favorite. Unless you count Toxic Crusaders, but I don't.

Hmm...I'd be really interested in seeing this once it airs in the U.S. and Canada. It looks pretty decent!

Awesome. I love the old school Biker Mice, and the clips I saw from the new series look intresting.

Though, no Lawrence Limburger, or Greasepit, or Prof. Carbunkle, has me a little worried.

No need to worry, Limburger will be returning in the series soon to explain how the Plutarkian Wars ended.

I disliked anything that seemed like a turtles rip off as a kid. I might watch this show but I'm not sure about the toys. I'll do my best to skip on them, they look pretty decent though.

Can't get any, because when I go "maybe one..." it turns into an alcohol situation and I'll end up getting drunk on crappy toys.
