SET DETAILS
Owner's Description
This is a promotional giveaway created for Target and Playmates to promote the new TMNT toyline that would accompany the 2012 Nickelodeon cartoon. The book is mini-sized and doesn't contain an original story, rather it has sneak peeks of upcoming release from both the show and the toyline.
The cover took the standard figures from the Playmates toyline and posed them in the classic pose from the 1984 cover. Upon close inspection of the cover, you can see some odd things. For example, Mikey is sporting Donatello's torso as evidenced by the shoulder strap and the staff holder (maybe paying homage that Mikey DID sport a shoulder strap on the original cover). Raphael's torso is replaced with Leonardo's, Leo's is replaced with Mikey's and Don's right arm needed to be broken in order to pose him properly. There may be more...let me know if you find anything else.
