yeeh i liked it until it got incrdeibly stupid. I don't think there are too many fans who like the pr, like there are fans that like tmnt. Ones that would stick with it. It seems power rangers is aimed to little kids and when those kids get older the next wave of kids comes in.

yeah I guess i'm asking everyone, that's cool to know i'm not the only one who liked it when they were really young. I was like 2 when i got my first figure, my mom tells me i pointed to a donatello, and she thought it was hideous, but bought it anyways. Ever since she's liked don the most, even though she really doesn't care. I think it's because don's smart, and she likes smart people.

yeah i have the backpack, where the 4 cartoon turtles are on it, all smiling, and ones coming out of the sewer, it was a pretty famous tmnt picture, since it was on like button, backpacks, etc...
The most found memory of tmnt merchandise were those little custard pies, where you would get a sticker, and raph was on the packaging. I was so sad when they discontinued that snack food.

Interesting, isn't it? PR always seemed to aim for the young kids...but as TMNT fans grew up, so did the TMNT. In the latest comics, they're all in their late twenties/early thirties!

yeah, but the comics were always intended for an older audience. Yeah most people in the 80's are older, and they want to aim to them, and to the kids. That's whay transformers does, in the new comics, people actually get crushed by the transformers.

yeah but i don't care much about that because if it's something i really want i can get it on the net...besides here's so much more anime than in the us (and yeah, dubs are good =P )
i don't think we'll have to wait *years* tho =P just a couple of months.
