I never had the turtle pies, so I went with option 2. Far as I know, the only TMNT food products I had were the ice cream pops, gummies, & macaroni & cheese. I missed out on the cereal, pizzas, snack cakes, etc. But I'd totally love to have all that kinda stuff now, even as an adult. Good food is better food when shaped like the TMNT.

Poor Rocksteady. Just can't catch a break.

Five years ago, I would have said, "yes, no question," However, with the current politics with anti-obseity (not saying it isn't a worthy cause), I am not as sure. At most, there will likely be cereal, pasta meals and pizza (if only because the former two are still profitable with the kids and the latter is iconic with the Turtles). I really want to be wrong about this, believe me, because I want a Turtle pie, darn it.

I agree, I doubt we will ever see the pies just because they where like a billion calories and really bad for you.

We're on the same wavelength, Jester. I tweeted this to @Hostess_Snacks the other day:



Note their cautiously enthusiastic response.

That is beyond awesome. I'd love to have TMNT pies mark 2. Maybe the new wave could be assorted flavors, like Blueberry, Strawberry, Peach, and...um...some other flavor for Don. Grape just sounds nasty. And maybe a vanilla one with April and it could have yellow icing on the outside....

Ok, now I'm overdoing it.

That would be really neat, as they're one of the most hyped up old school TMNT products and I never had the chance to try one.

The originals were just vanilla pudding pies with green icing, but I know Hostess (or at least other "fruit' pie makers) have other flavors as well. It'd be cool to get a chocolate Splinter pie...

I never ate these or saw them in stores. I vaguely remember the TMNT Cereal. I used to get the Turtles ice cream whatever they were with bubblegum eyeballs from the ice cream truck when it came around during the summers though

Voted option #2, since I've never had the turtle pies before (at least, I don't think I have). Honestly, the more licensed TMNT stuff out there, the better. I'll definitely be showing my support for any food items. Even any fast food promotions that come along (please not mcdonalds, please not mcdonalds...).

I'd love to see some Shredder/Kraang ones too in addition, and the amount we'll see will depend on how interested the new fans and the old followers tune in to Nick's marketing plan. What I do want the most is to have a contest promotion, where a grand prize winner would win a complete set of TMNT figures being released, all TMNT video games, a two-year subscription to all Nick and IDW comic books, along with with Kevin Eastman or other members of the TMNT world. Now that's a way to surely draw people in to purchase TMNT products.
