Aww yeah, Tomocast is back to give you the sound you crave!

This time around we talk about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Everything from the original comics that spawned the classic 80s cartoon to the reboot that came out during the Aughts is discusses, and we of course spend a good time talking about the toys. Oh the toys! I swear half the hair lost in my family was from the search of the damn Turtles.

You can subscribe to the pod over at iTunes or you can give it a download here. If you can spare a minute or two, please rate our show so we can get some rankage, as that'd be pretty nice. Anyway, hit the jump to get the show notes and enjoy the pod!

Music used:

Pre-Intro: "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Theme Song" from the 80s cartoon. Still brings a smile to my face.

Intro: "Fly Away" by TeddyLoid, from the Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt OST

Break: "Re-rise" by Hagane Miku, from the Vocaloid album Hope

Outro: "Fallen Angel" by Mitsunori Ikeda feat. Aimee B., also from the Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt OST

 

Things we talked about:

 

Star Wars vintage figures bring back the 70s.

 

Normandy model makes me and Chris ridiculously excited.

 

Shredder statue is not dopey.

 

Alas, I wasn't able to find that photo of me as a Ninja Turtle. Be thankful you're spared that horror.
