Ninja Turtle Costumes

Are you feeling nostalgic? Do you want a different kind of superhero costume? Your best bet would be ninja turtle costumes.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles began as a parody of famous comic books during the early 1980s. It was created by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird which eventually led them to publish a comic book about these characters. Their mainstream success began with a line-up of licensed toys that in the long run was adapted as an animated television series. The popular television series along with a wide selection of merchandise helped bring the ninja turtles to fame and pop culture history.

The turtles are a team of mutant turtles trained in the art of ninjutsu by a talking rat sensei. Each character was named after famous Renaissance figures. They protected the city of New York from all kinds of threats from petty crime to alien invasions. They did all this while remaining secluded from the city and living in the sewers.

Aside from comic books, toys and other merchandise, the ninja-turtles have also made their appearance in film and video games. Despite being a parody in itself, the series were also parodied. The turtles' popularity peaked in the 1980s and early 1990s enjoying a worldwide age comprising mostly of young audiences. The pop culture icon has recently been revived for a new audience. In the 2000s, a new animated series was produced that bears more resemblance to its grittier origins. A new animated series is planned in the next coming years.
