This is one of the earliest games I played...right after I learned the original D&D, that is. It still remains one of my favourites, and I can't wait to get another campaign going. With a cool system for designing mutant characters and some great supplements, mixed in with artwork from Eastman and Laird, it was worth the cash at the time. However, Palladium has dropped the licence and the only way to get it now is if you're lucky enough to find it in the old stock of a gaming store.

A good question is: who does hold the rights?

This is a great game. I've played a little. I've created many many characters, which is easily just as fun as actually playing the game. It's certainly the most fun character creation system out there. There's nothing like rolling up characters completely at random and thinking up a background as the dice fall.

For the record, Peter Laird holds the rights to the TMNT franchise to this day.

i found out about this game when i had a conversation with my cousin and the subject came up because he plays pen and papper RPGs(marvel superheros)and i said as a joke like would if there was a TMNT game and he said there was,i was interested from that point because he told me how they wernt like the goofy cartoon trutles and were a bit more darker and i have to say i wish the original TMNT was still that way today,i wanna get my hands on this game because my cousin said you didnt have to use the turtles if you didnt want and you could make your own mutant,they really need to eather make TMNT like there original comic book versions or just republish the TMNT and other strangeness game,but i am a hunter rare and obscure things so i will probably have to find it at a hobbie shop or somthing

This remains to this day, my most favourite of RPGs. I have each and every supplement for it. I have two copies of the first print / first edition. There is a "Revised Edition" where Palladium updated the book to use the common Palladium skill system, but the original free system (H-C-M-S) I feel was much better. The game didn't need revising, only spelling and grammar checks and maybe better lay out design. I had a copy of Revised as well, but gave it to a friend. If you can find it, Unrevised is the way to go in my opinion, both as a player and gamemaster.

Just for the record guys, You can buy almost ALL of the TMNT manuals from amazon.com, and the prices can be next to nothing. I loved this game as did you all did, the character building was addicting for sure.
