Nickelodeon Teams With Forbidden Planet For Exclusive "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" Merchandise Lines

Nickelodeon & Viacom Consumer Products (NVCP) and Forbidden Planet have teamed up to bring an exclusive range of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" apparel, art and homeware to Forbidden Planet's UK stores in a direct to retail agreement!


The new TMNT range has a retro look and is inspired by the original "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" series. The lines go on sale from Saturday 6th June 2015 at Forbidden Planet stores across major UK cities, including the megastore on London's Shaftesbury Avenue.

Forbidden Planet's new TMNT range is also available online at forbiddenplanet.com and includes t-shirts, aprons, posters and cards as well as Turtles homeware.

Turtles fans were given a sneak peek at the new product range at last weekend's MCM Comic Con 2015, while also being treated to an appearance from the pizza loving foursome - Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo and Raphael, below!


"We're excited to partner with Forbidden Planet for the first time on a range that gives a nostalgic nod to the original series," said Marianne James, VP consumer products UK & Ireland and European retail sales and marketing, Viacom International Media Networks.

"As a family brand it's fantastic to have a new line of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles products which appeals to adult fans, in addition to our licences that cater to our kids' audience."
