Neat. Now I might be able to get one in good condition without selling my testes.

*Kendamu* · 01-13-2009, 08:30 PM

I wanna see the boxart first. If it's similar to the old boxart (like how the figures have boxart similar to the old figure cards) then I might jump on it.

andrewdsz · 01-13-2009, 08:49 PM

THANK GOD!! Finally i can afford one without selling my right kidney.

*CyberCubed* · 01-13-2009, 08:50 PM

I had the Turtle Van as a kid but it all got broken and destroyed, I'd love to buy it again.

Ooooo...Me wanty! While mine's okay, it's missing a lot and has a cracked shell/roof. I just hope it's more like $20-$25 than $33 at retail.

EDIT: Oh yeah, it it uses the old box art, I'm so there!

**GK Punk** · 01-13-2009, 11:07 PM

I'm sure it will be cheaper in stores. BBTS usually over charges on items like that. As much as I love that store. (I've used them many times in the past.)

*BigApple3AM* · 01-13-2009, 11:08 PM

There's no chance of it, but I'd love it if they reissued the news van too. That's one I never saw/got.

And I'll definitely get the Party Wagon, my original one is damaged from excessive play as a kid.

*Ninjinister* · 01-13-2009, 11:10 PM

Yeah, both of mine are second hand and in ass condition. The first one was okay, but not complete (stickers, door, et cetera), and my father broke the lid one day. The second one I only got because it came with a Shoate for and some other random crap for $20... it had more stickers and accessories, but still no door, and I had to clean the damn thing when it arrived.

Blade Raider · 01-13-2009, 11:17 PM

Oh, I hope they don't pull what Hasbro did on GI Joe and put some of the stickers on in the box. I want to put those on myself!

*Candy Kappa* · 01-14-2009, 01:53 AM

I wonder if I got space for that van. I never got it as a kid.

its a bit off topic but the new turtle car from 2003 seem like it never came to norway cus I did'nt see it it any where. But last yeat at a small cheap-price store I found it. The box was in bad condition but the car and the missiles was there so I got it for my kid brothers.
later I found in the same kind of store tht my mother works in they had a whole wall filled with them

Do you mean the Battle Shell or some other car? If you mean the Battle Shell, the Party Wagon is not as long, but about the same size otherwise.

*Candy Kappa* · 01-14-2009, 02:47 AM

yes battle shell was the name

hmm I could probably find a spot for it

NoPressApril · 01-14-2009, 06:20 AM

I haven't really paid much attention, have Party Wagons increased to an insane amount lately?

Chrissie Terrapin · 01-14-2009, 09:19 AM

It looks cool but I think I'll pass on that one.
I'm not a huge vehicle fan^^

I am also wondering this, I have like 3 of them, one I COMPLETELY transformed into an RC car using the original wheels and everything (will post pictures soon)

And my friends store still has some with parts I think.

I'm not either, in fact, the only vehicles I've gotten in the past few years have been because they came with exclusive figures, or in lots. But I'd like to be able to replace the two turds that are in my collection with something nice.
