In 2013 Funko released their POP Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Toy line!  At Toy Fair 2014 we learned that there is more coming.  As TMNT was seen through their booth we had to find out all the juicy details about this Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles gold mine of goodies!  This is an interview we did at Toy Fair to find out what we can for our fellow fans!

There are a lot of characters for the classic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon coming back for Nickelodeon’s TMNT series.  Each one bringing on a new look, a new history, and even new personalities.  With all these new introductions to characters we already know, fears can come up if they change someone to away we will not enjoy.  One of those fears came to me, when I found out last year that Spike, Raphael’s pet was going to turn into Slash.  This episode was not riding well with me, all the way up to the day it aired.  How could they turn Spike into a bad guy?  Nickelodeon took me by surprise and did not let me down.  Here is my review of “Slash and Destroy”.

D-Lux Entertainment Expo 2014 is one of the events that we were at Cowabunga Corner is promoting this year.  An event that has Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles guests, events, and more.  With an attempt to break the World Record for the most people dressed up like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.  Here I get to talk with the man behind D-Lux so he can fill our viewers in a little more about the event itself.

Toy Fair 2014 was a big event that offered a lot of cool stuff.  The second day kept us just as busy going around as the first day.  It started off very early as Mattel was doing a Press panel that went over their new lines of toys for 2014.  We also had a handful of other interesting things going on, that got Miki and I to pack up and walk over there early.  Check in was easy and we got a press kit, before heading into the panel.

In Season one April O’Neil was clearly shown not only to be friend to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, she is also the target of the Kraang.  Which makes her all the more interest for Karai, who is out to destroy the Turtles.  Now with the new Foot Bots, Kara is not going to sit back she wants to destroy the Turtles.  Is April truly safe, living a life without the Turtles by her side?  Here is my review of Nickelodeon’s TMNT episode “Target: April O’Neil”

Once a year in the United States people gather from around the world to talk about toys. Action figures, yo yo, coloring books, and so much more. This event is full of business people who either make or sell toys. They call this awesome week "Toy Fair". There are few outside of the business who can attend this joyless week, including media outlets. This is the second year that Cowabunga Corner has been able to take part. Here is my over all review of Toy Fair 2014.

Going through Toy Fair it is getting harder and harder to choose favorites as there is so much new stuff coming out.  Things I know everyone will be excited about.  We will cover as much as we can with six interviews with companies already, we got plenty more to come.  Before we get into editing footage and sharing everything we have to finish this trip.  For now I will keep up with the Top Picks of the day for Tuesday, the top pick is the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Drum set.

In Nickelodeon’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles they have Michelangelo taking the hits as being the dumb one.  His brothers pick on him big time, a great example will always be in "The Gauntlet" when Donatello is told to stay with Michelangelo.  Personally I find this a pet peeve, most of the time it’s just wiped off and Mikey acts like it does not bother him.  Though in Season 2 there is an episode where Michelangelo shows that his brother’s actions do hurt him.  Here is my review of “Mikey Gets Shellacne”.

Monday was a full day of running around, meeting new companies that plan to bring Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles products out for us fans.  With amazing stuff from Talking Pillows to Kidrobot toys!  Choosing a favorite has to go to the one that got me the most excited at first sight.  That is to a company that kept their Turtle stuff hidden in the booth where I did not even see them the other times I passed by this booth.  Underground Toys.
