April and Shredder on the 1989 Arcade Marquee

The 1989 TMNT arcade cabinet artwork featured actual human actors dressed as April and Shredder, were they ever credited? I always thought the April looks like Debra Messing who played Grace on "Will&Grace".

I always thought Shredder was an illustration, and only April was a person in costume. I'd love to see a retro-spective interview with the model though!

Yes me too! I'd like to see an interview with both of them, see where they are now. You can tell Shredder is real because he has actual human eyes.

I've tried to find that out myself; no luck. May have just been whatever they had going that weekend to help pay for college.
