Bryan Coffee over on Tomopop has made me so happy today. The original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles toys are getting re-released. By original, I mean as in the original molds that Playmates used back in the 90s. So far, only the core four Turtles have been made with April O’Neal, Shredder, Bebop and Rocksteady coming out later this year. I feel like a kid again.   

On Destructoid, Segata Sanshiro is our badass of the month. On Japanator, Samuel L Jackson is an otaku nerd omg KAWAII! On Tomopop, Blackula is 12 inches big. And be sure to check out our New York Comic Con coverage on all three ModernMethod sites.

That pic isn't from the original toys. The original turtle toys didn't have long headbands, and Donatello was brown.

So, is it "Japa-nator" or "Japan-ator"?

Nice. I am looking forward to the Rocksteady and Bebop re-releases. I never owned Rocksteady, now's my fucking chance! Plus I have a kid so I can pretend like I am buying them for him, haha... yes...

That news pretty much overshadows all of the other news you posted up there.

Now somebody needs to get on re-releasing Inhumanoids, M.A.S.K., and Boglins.
