This historic redux of the ever-popular role-playing game, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & Other Strangeness, includes remastered text and is filled with full-color artwork by Kevin Eastman, Peter Laird, Jim Lawson, and dozens of renowned artists that will thrill all Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fans. The campaign hit its $250,000 funding goal in the first 4 hours, has exceeded $1 million since, and has the full support of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles creators Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird.

The success of the campaign has resulted in the following bonus content being added:

Bonus art prints featuring the cover paintings of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & Other Strangeness RPG as well as the Transdimensional Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles sourcebook.
A bonus downloadable introductory adventure written by TMNT comic book writer Sophie Campbell in collaboration with Palladium Books founder Kevin Siembieda.
A bonus TMNT poker card deck illustrated with art from the role-playing game, available as an add-on for all backers, and added for FREE to the highest pledge levels.
The Fugitoid character is being added to the books and to the Heroes miniature set!

At the time of writing, the following bonus content is being unlocked as more fans pledge:

Karai, Shredder’s lieutenant, will be added to the books, including an all-new illustration by TMNT co-creator Kevin Eastman.
A Triceraton warrior miniature will be added to the Villain miniature set, plus a new mutant animal will be added to the book as determined by a fan poll.
Doc Feral, a classic evil mastermind from the original RPG, will be added to the Villain miniature set, plus a second new mutant animal determined by a fan poll.
An April O’Neil miniature will be added to the Heroes miniature set, plus a third new mutant animal will be added to the book as determined by a fan poll.

The beloved, original out-of-print Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles role-playing game and its five sourcebooks are sought-after collector items that have enthralled generations since its release in 1985 as one of the first licensed TMNT products. They are returning to print as two deluxe hardcover collections of the RPG and sourcebooks. Each is being completely remastered by industry veteran Sean Owen Roberson and presented in full color. Kevin Eastman is creating a new, painted, variant cover, and Eastman and Laird have combined their talents to jointly create two brand new, variant, Mutagen Green foil covers!

Bonus material includes an array of new artwork, never before seen behind-the-scenes info and art, a selection of new mutant animals and character, plus remembrances and tributes by renowned comic book and RPG creators including Eastman, Peter Laird, Freddie E. Williams II, Steven Cummings, Sophie Campbell, David Petersen and many more.

“This is incredibly exciting! I am 1000% onboard to help bring this historic and original TMNT Role Playing Game series back in a truly deluxe collector’s edition that will thrill original fans and open the door for new ones,” said Eastman. “I've made all my archives available for expanded behind-the-scenes content as well as a few top secret surprises you need to be part of. Stay tuned!”
