Actually, it kinda reminds me of the original Battle Shell from the 4Kids cartoon, but colored to look like the Turtle Van.

I question if the car is even associated with the same movie, but if it is... Maybe it belongs to Eric Sacks. Given that he's so rich that his main goal has been to become "stupid rich." He's probably got like twenty of them.

If you watch the 2014 movie with the mindset that you are watching the 80s show, it actually kind of works. Even though I loved the movies from the 90s, I was always a little disappointed that they didn't include more characters and elements from the show. I'm cool with the turtles finally having a vehicle in the movies. I don't want to see the turtle blimp though.

Well the garbage truck-van seems better in that these turtles are huge compared to all other incarnations. At least it makes more sense to have the turtles be in a larger vehicle for that reason alone. So I'm just fine in this being their actual Turtle Van/Party Wagon in this movie. The Turtle Van/Party Wagon from the first movie (2014) did seem way too small for all four turtles after all.

I think they must have kept the first van small so when the actors were in it the rendered characters would look big. But personally it didn't work out like that too well and just looked more like a Turtle clown car. lol Not sure they took into consideration that doing a scene with April and Vern right there by the real vehicle is going to throw it off. I mean come on, it was smaller than a regular van.

Now a modified trash truck looks more their speed.

They can just use the van to go pick up more Pop Tarts 'n stuff. (If they leave half of them at home so there is room for groceries.)

I just really hope they actually use the new vehicle for something, and not just for show, I would like to see some kind of Car chase with that.

It's a real shame too, because the TMNT franchise has never been about selling toys....

It'd be cool to have Rocksteady ram the van from the 1st movie and destroy it, forcing them to use a bigger, tougher vehicle.

That other car might be for Transformers 5 btw, since Bay is the one who published the photos, and he's producing both movies.

I like it! It's the right size and the design is good.

...The sad thing is, so far, this is the only news about this new movie I'm excited about. Wait, no, maybe just slightly amused. ^^; Either way, it's not making me facepalm and I'm happy about that.

Well, They start filming in some places in NY on Monday, So I'm sure we will get some news with BTS photos, and videos of whatever is going on.

Didn't like the 2k12 Shellraiser Turtle van in the first flick, but having a 2k3 referenced vehicle is okay I guess.

If they are doing the whole dimension x story with the Ooze and kraang I'm guessing that hot rod Polaris ride belongs the the neutrinos. God help us all.

I bet this one will get FIFTEEN whole seconds of screen time!

And maybe be only half as useless and pointless!

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it!

But if we could throw Bay & Co. into it, that might be all we need.

I was a little tempted to audition for an extras part that they are filming on April 28th to the 29th. But New York City is way too far to go and maybe get disappointed on not getting the part. Knowing my luck, if I did get the part, the scene would be cut last minute. ^^;

The moving van, right? Totally forgot about that! Maybe that's a subconscious thought to why I like this garbage truck...

If you were to get the part, They would make you sign an NDA, So you couldn't even talk about what you seen.

They wouldn't be doing it to feed you gossip, but for their own enjoyment.
