TMNT WTF 3

/ 484 days ago

Welcome to the 3rd edition of TMNT WTF, where I post some silly-as-fuck oddities in the TMNT toyline from the 80′s and early 90′s. We saw farmer-Turtles, we had Pizzaface the crazy one-legged pizza chef, and here we have Halfcourt, the basketball playing giraffe!

What does a giraffe or basketball have to do with TMNT? At least the pizza-chef, was a pizza chef and the Turtles love pizza…do they also like b-ball? I can’t remember. Well Halfcourt comes with what looks like a metal basketball and a bunch of other junk, I can’t tell what all of his accesories are, one looks like a gun of some sort, or is it a basketball pump? Is it both? Is that a manhole cover? I don’t know, but he sure is wacky. I like how he is wearing a torn basket for a necklace though. Oh, wait I see, he probably needs the pump/gun because….he is hustlin’ b-ball like Wesley and Woody and well, sometimes you gotta break out your gat on the court, right? Especially in a world full of mutants! Yeah…

coltscomics seems to have the cheapest MOC Halfcourt on ebay right now, but he is also taking offers. There are loose ones but you need his freakin’ bio-card!

Next is “Wacky Wild West” Ninja Turtles, what? OK! Here’s Raphael in a coon-skin cap, with a freaking musket, being some kind of green Davy Crockett.

Last but not least, how about a Nazi Wehrmacht Bebop, from the “Mutant Military” line? Gotta love the “Duh, I’m Just Following Orders” on the card. LOL.

Top notch TMNT wackiness

/ 617 days ago

dcsportscards has something nice from when the TMNT were on top of the world. Back then toy ideas got pretty out there just to have a new TMNT toy. But I think this is one of the things that made these toys extra fun.

This series I believe to be the most ridiculous one I’ve ever seen, I think it even beats the Clown-Turtles, because this is TMNT – Farmers. Farmers! Apparently when the Turtles are done battling the Foot Clan and living in the sewers they are farmers, farmers growing …pizza? Who knows. I’d love to read the blurb on this, alas I’ve never owned any. There are a bunch of loose figures around but here is a nice MIB Farmer Mike and his tractor! Yeah. I don’t know why the seller included pics of a loose technodrome and some other shit, maybe you get those as a bonus?
