Half-Shell Heroes: Merry Mutants TV special?

[SS Kakarot]

I noticed the description of a book called 'Merry Mutants' coming out later this year mentions a 'television event'.



"The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles save the world (again) in an all-new television event based on the Half-Shell Heroes toy line.
This full-color, hardcover storybook is sure to thrill children ages 3 to 7."

It would make sense since the 'Blast to the Past' special also had a Big Golden Book release.

I'm so down with an X-mas special.

Still confused that the OT never had a christmas special.

This time hopefully will not adapt the Michelangelo special so we get a second Christmas story with TMNT. The 2003 episode adaptation was great and all especially the new bits with the Christmas dinner guest, but I would like to see an original plot.

That was one of the two sins that are hard to get over. No Christmas episode and the series finale was against Dregg not Shredder.

Please don't let it be a rehash of the Christmas Carol. I know the story is a classic, but that cow has been milked dry.

There has already been a Mr. Magoo version, Disney version, Peter pan and the pirates had an episode centered around this plot, muppets version, a TV musical version starring Kelsey Grammer, a version starring Jim Carry, ghost busters version, MLP:FIM has very recently done a version (i.e. they had their christmas episode in may of this year).

While it might be interesting to have a Turtles Version, i doubt it wouldn't not come along as convoluted.

If they did A Christmas Carol, I'd rather it was done separate some other year with the actual series characters. Half Shell look like such little kids, I'd rather some other cute story to go along with them.

Maybe they'll save Christmas and hang out with Santa, but that's been done a million times, too.

I wonder if it will take place right after Blast to the Past, at the end of it, they traveled to the future.

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE Christmas specials to death, so a new TMNT one in the HSH style would be fantastic. That being said, though, the generic description combined with the cover not having ANY HSH branding on it makes me skeptical. It almost seems like they're reusing a description for their previous "Blast to the Past" book or one in the works based on an unrelated unannounced HSH special. We'll see, but the cover and the description don't really seem to match up.

We should get a regular christmas special but I'm down with a HSH style. Christmas specials are the best though. The He-Man one is a f*cking goldmine.


Halloween specials are dope as well but nothing beats Christmas

I'm sure this one will be online before it airs on Nickelodeon, like they did with Blast to the Past.

So another adaptation of this or would an orphanage strain the budget?

[WolvDragon]

A new Half-Shell Heroes special eh? Sure why not? I did enjoy the first one they showed.

[ToTheNines]

I'm surprised we haven't heard anything else about this by now. Last year's special was announced in late July and came out in late November...

and after the super shredder found the true meaning of Christmas his heart grew three sizes but then shriveled back to normal in a few seconds and thoughts of revenge danced through his head again.
