Okay, a night of procrastination is ahead so why not to cover classic TMNT?.. At least a great first season consisting of five episodes. Season 1 Episode 1 "Turtle Tracks": One of the first things we see is this unfortunate car. Before and after street punk gang works on it. ![]() ![]() Channel 6 Van: ![]() A few background cars some of which are surprisingly detailed: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Season 1 Episode 2 "Enter the Shredder" Rolls-Royce yet again: ![]() Channel 6 Van: ![]() More detailed foreground cars: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This lump of a bus: ![]() Less-detailed background cars: ![]() ![]() |

looks like a 1985-1986 Ford LTD to me -- Last edit: 2017-02-22 01:35:15 |

While some of the vehicles are drawn as pretty generic, others were clearly based on real ones. It moves towards generic ones in later seasons due to an animation shift (the first season was animated by a Japanese studio and is notably animesque), but the first one has quite a few buildings, vehicles and firearms which are based on existing ones. Moreover, it is culturally significant and, considering that 2012 series is listed here (/movie_1877889-Teenage-Mutant-Ninja-Turtles.html) and they cross over quite frequently, it is logical to have this series featured here as well. Great find! It looked really familiar to me but I was not able to remember where have I seen LTD to verify it. Also, is it just me or it really looks like Dodge A-100?.. /vehicles_make-Dodge_model-A-100.html |

Season 1 Episode 5 "Shredder & Splintered" Strangely enough, this episode barely features any background vehicles, concentrating on what is at least two stars. Neutrino Flying Car re-appears: ![]() A sportcar Bebop wrecks: ![]() ![]() ![]() Two trucks: ![]() ![]() Channel 6 Parking Lot: ![]() ![]() Techno-Rover re-appears briefly, as well: ![]() |

The wrecked sports car is a Pontiac. Probably a Firebird, but I am leaning towards a J2000 as well. |

to me it looks like a 928 with a Trans Am ( or Sunbird ) face.... ![]() -- Last edit: 2017-02-22 19:52:43 |

I have a feeling that it was kind of a composite as with the Rolls-Royce... Both Firebird and J2000 are quite similar... ![]() |
