Ok, who here watched this show as a kid? I don't know about you but looking back, I really not only missed the show but everything about the ninja turtles. I mean, they chilled in the sewer and ate pizza and kicked ass when necessary. They seem like a bunch of stoners come to think of it. I don't know about you, but there's some new ninja turtle movie coming out and when it does, I'm getting baked, and going to see it, if just to honor childhood memories. Should be a good time. Anyone else remember or love this show?

YES! I used to love the Ninja Turtles. I still have a at least 24 of their toy figures here. I have them even in their Samuri gear! :p That was badass. And the pizza thrower too!

i was the biggest turtle fan ever! i had about 90 some action figures, a bunch of cars, the sewer, plus all kinds of clothes, sheets, pajamas, curtains, etc. for like 5 years everything i got for my birthday, christmas, or easter was ninja turtles. i even still remember the last turtle i bought was some space man looking raphael where his fists shoot off. my parents got it for me when we went to the mall of america for family vacation one year. anyways, here are some pictures of my collection, or what i could find of it at my parents house, from last christmas i think. a lot of the stuff i couldn't get to because its so deep in the store room.

Hero Turtles
Upon TMNT's first arrival in the United Kingdom, the name was changed to "Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles" (or TMHT, for short), since local censorship policies deemed the word ninja to have excessively violent connotations for a children's program.[2] Consequently, everything related to the Turtles had to be renamed before being released in the UK. The lyrics were also changed, such as changing "Splinter taught them to be ninja teens" to "Splinter taught them to be fighting teens."
The policies also had other effects, such as removing Michelangelo's nunchaku (which were at the time banned from appearing in even 18-rated movies) and generally toning down the usage of all the turtles' weapons. After many seasons of never using his nunchaku, they eventually disappeared entirely, replaced by a turtle shell shaped grappling hook called the "Turtle Line".
off of wikipedia.. teenage mutant ninja turtles were the originals, not heroes.. they came in after

Sorry, I got you beat. I get lit and watch the old cartoons all the time. I have them on DVD :D I wish I still had all my figures though, I had almost all of them, and my mom made me sell them at a garage sell cause we moved when I was 13. I didn't still play with them or anything, but I still wanted to keep them for sentimental purposes. :(

I'm from the UK, and it was definately Hero Turtles before the new, color revamp of Ninja Turtles. I look at it as Hero = Older version and Ninja for new. May be wrong, cos this was certainly a few year back, but I am pretty sure it was Hero before Ninja.

No. Ninja was first. I had NINJA turtles action figures when I was 2. That was like 1988.

Yeah, I had NINJA turtles in the 80's as well. Maybe they were called the Hero Turtles in different countries...? :confused: Because I was a fan since day one, and Hero Turtles doesn't come to mind.

i put that it was hero turtles first because thats what it was in the uk, but as JuggaloAtTheDoor says it was renamed from ninja turtles to hero turtles just for the uk, so all you people in the us probably still had ninja turtles not hero turtles

everyone knows the turtles were gang bangers, where do you think they got the tvs and the stereos and the money for pizza every day? It's not like they had jobs or anything.

I have the 3 dvds of the original series. I burned them to Dual Layer discs to keep the quality at its best. :)
