The Half-Shell Heroes Get Their Own TV Special

When I was at Toy Fair this past year I toured the Playmates booth and got to see a ton of things coming for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. One of the things was a ton of new toys for the Half-Shell Heroes line. These are the toys that are mean for pre-schoolers. They are smaller, cute versions of the Nickelodeon Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series. I thought that this would make a great series that my kids would enjoy and I am excited that this will actually be a TV special. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Dinosaurs. A fun combination. Check out the Press Release below.

Our most recent batch of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles toys were of the Half-Shell variety. We received three Half-Shell Heroes toys to play with and review. These were some toys that I was very excited to add to our collection and Andrew was excited for something new to play with. The toys that we received were a 2-pack of new villains, Bebop and Rocksteady. We also received a bath toy, the Dive Boat with Diver Donnie and one toy that we already had which was the Raphael figure on a minibike. I made a video of the unboxing of these toys which you can see below.
