Favorite TMNT vehicles you would love to drive / pilot IRL.

*DarkFell* · 01-13-2015, 10:23 PM

You can choose any vehicle(s)from any of the cartoon series. Reasons why you would choose it / them *along with any pros & cons* are also welcomed in this thread. Playmate toy vehicles are also welcomed in here. *Thanks for reminding me Powder.*

I would love to drive one of those Starcruisers. Forget the city traffic jams and the speed limits. Finding plutonium would be a pain along finding whatever components I might need for the vehicle.

A second choice for me would be the Turtle Blimp. Manuvering around radio signal towers would be a pain, but something about dropping bombs on foes along wirh shooting a laser turret at them seems so gratifying. Flying the Glider would also be fun.

I wanted to also choose a Transport Module but having to dodge numerous underground pipe systems doesn't seem like much fun to me, and neither does hitting a gas pipe at high speed.

Would this not include random Playmates vehicles that never made it into the show? 'Cause I'd much rather whip around in a few of those as opposed to one of the Turtle Vans or something.

Ooo.. thanks Powder. I was gonna add that. I didn't because the site logged me off before I could add that option.

Have at it.

*DarkFell* · 01-14-2015, 02:28 PM

I wonder how many vehicles they were from the OT and from what Playmates released altogether...

*blindturtle02* · 01-14-2015, 03:08 PM

I've always liked the Shreddermobile. The weapons on that thing were the main reason I asked for it as an Easter present as a kid. Year before that, I got the transport module. Hey DF, you could just drill through all those pipes if they're in the way. It might be fun to use the blasters and missiles but ya might save those for the surface. I'd also like to pilot that. Killer Bee, Sludgemobile, and Footcruiser would be fun to drive. Especially the Footcruiser. I'd love to fire those eyeball missiles. Wait, I'd have to be operating the tailgunner's seat to do all that. Sounds good. Someone else needs to be in the driver's seat anyway. I just realized that I picked bad guy vehicles and nothing else. For good guy rigs, I'd pick the turtlecopter and turtletank. I'm crazy about those mutant military vehicles, especially the boxing gloves and bombs on the copter. Ya know, I'd love to see the turtle tank go up against a transport module. Personally, I don't care which side wins. I just wanna wreck things!

*DarkFell* · 01-14-2015, 04:10 PM

I didnt know that there even was a Turtletank. Then again I didn't have the vehicles as a kid, just some of the figures.

Thanks for the info blindturtle.

*Prowler* · 01-15-2015, 03:11 PM

The Turtle van only. Would be so awesome.

The Star Cruiser and the Turtle Blimp just sound dangerous.

And even though it's not a vehicle, I'd like to have the Technodrome's inter-dimensional portal. Would only use it on Earth, though. I'd just wake up 5 minutes before work and school and then hop on it. Would save so much time.

*Autbot_Benz* · 01-15-2015, 03:14 PM

Id wanna ride in the Grasskicker its a lawnmower with rockets and disc launchers on it. its a current turtles vehicle not on the show

The pandimensional portal would be really awesome. Just make sure your coordinates are correct, or else you may not know where you'll wind up.

@ Benz - The mower vehicle is a hoot. I like it.

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 01-16-2015, 10:57 AM

I'd like the old school Turtle van. The portal would be nice, too. Would be great not to have to walk everywhere. Just plug in the coordinates, and BAM! I'm there. Definitely not the blimp. That thing just looks scary to pilot. I wouldn't mind the Battle-shell, though.

*Powder* · 01-16-2015, 01:26 PM

For whatever reason I am drawing a blank on the majority of funky Playmates vehicles but two favorites of mine as a kid come to mind- The Seltzer Cannon & The Sewer Dragster. So I guess if only for nostalgic reasons, I'd love to whip those. & the green tank thing with big ass orange claws on it. Heh.

*TheCanadiandrome* · 01-16-2015, 02:05 PM

the modules for sure; Party Wagon; and hell i'd love a shot at the controls of the Technodrome itself! i mean c'mon now lol

*Bry* · 01-16-2015, 02:05 PM

Yeah, it's no contest:

"Cool? Daddio, we are frozen!"

The original Turtle Van/Party Wagon is the runner-up, just because it's so damned iconic. But I really don't like driving anything bigger than a standard-size car, so I probably wouldn't enjoy it much.

*DarkFell* · 01-16-2015, 02:21 PM

@ Powder- Only Playmates toy that comes to mind is the Pizza Thrower.

monsterocket · 01-18-2015, 03:07 AM

What was that boat vehicle they had in the old cartoons? I think it was a boat or some kind of tube thing... It would be fun to ride anything fast through the sewer tunnels (minus the chances of sewer splashing).

You're might be talking about the Turtle Tube. That's what I heard in the OT cartoon. There was a Playmates toy called the Muta-Raft.

I can't pull up any images from my phone because the Google site is currently being a dork.

*Shark_Blade* · 01-18-2015, 04:11 AM

Neutrino's flying car.

*DarkFell* · 01-18-2015, 05:13 AM

Krang's Giant Knucklehead. When on road traffic won't budge, I can just smash up the cars in my way and go on my way.

Yet another choice vehicle.

*neatoman* · 01-25-2015, 03:43 AM

I hate the vehicles because they're forced into the the shows to sell toys, regardless of how little sense it makes for beings who needs to hide from society to drive around brightly colored battle vehicles, often designed to look like turtles and/or having "Turtles" written on the sides.

That said, Fishface's bike looks pretty sweet, as does Bishop's train.
