joined brentroad over 20 years ago now and hoo boy was I confident this website wouldn't be around two decades later. Posted like an absolute fool

LOL!

I assume most of us have some stuff in the back catalog that we wouldn't be so pleased to have reviewed in the current day. For instance, I leaned and voted Conservative and likely posted as such. What a mistake!

4/13/2026 11:29:59 AM

I simply did not understand the waters I was treading in

and not that I ever would, but I'll never run for public office lol

4/13/2026 11:50:38 AM

and somehow it turns out people will say much much much WORSE things with their real names than we ever experienced with usernames

4/13/2026 1:19:22 PM

People are waaaay too comfortable saying the most insane shit you've ever seen on Facebook and Nextdoor. I see out of pocket posts on the RING camera app. Nothing matters anymore

I dont think any engagement on Twitter is real at this point. Blue checks and bots. It's all negative engagement/reaction bait

4/13/2026 1:44:29 PM

Well well, Hunter Biden....you've come back to us.

4/13/2026 3:56:29 PM

everybody already knows whats on my laptop, right? Nothing to lose

4/13/2026 4:06:20 PM

welcome back

how did you find your way back?

I would like to do outreach to bring in new [old] users

4/13/2026 7:32:23 PM

I want to hear their flimsy excuses for ever leaving.

I've been lurking for years. Posting occasionally. I'm gonna be honest and say that at this point, I'd get more interaction out of posting my dumb thoughts and comments on TWW than I would on twitter. That shithole website is completely broken

4/13/2026 9:15:11 PM

It’s always good to have more geezers posting.

Bring your friends.

If this thread is memory lane, my greatest TWW hit was probably that thread I made when I caught SaabTurbo and his girlfriend stealing ibuprofen from the Avent Ferry Food Lion when I was working there. That thread probably got lost in the great purge.

4/13/2026 9:37:46 PM

I have it on good authority that threads can be resurrected if you provide sufficient detail.

4/13/2026 9:46:37 PM

What details are needed? All I know is it had “Attn: SaabTurbo” in the title, and it was a few pages long I think. There are some out there but they weren’t started by me. I have no idea the timeframe, but it was before 2004.

4/13/2026 9:53:26 PM

That might be enough. Now we just need the right person to see your post.

4/13/2026 10:01:08 PM

I dont think I ever stirred the pot too much. There were a few of the OG's I was intimidated to post around (didn't want the smoke lol)

4/13/2026 10:03:43 PM

One day I won't be a n00b here. When I'm dead.

nah, i think TreeTwista was my original op lol

We need a new section of TWW that houses legendary threads of yore, including old ones that have been purged. Preserved for historical TWW archives. Ones like "Can't sleep, addicted to my Tony", "alcohol cabnit", "please guys, I have a game tonight", etc.

4/15/2026 10:44:38 AM

Tony can't possibly be alive, wasn't he in his 60s 20 years ago?

4/15/2026 12:18:51 PM

kinda memory lane but this is all in my house to this day

TMNT stuff is FUCKIN SWEET BRAH

I got a lot of TMNT stuff myself :3333

4/15/2026 4:24:06 PM

The Technodrome was my ultimate grail. I didn't have it as a child, my buddy Will did, but I had the Sewer playset. I think I ended up buying 3 different partial technodromes to have one fully complete. Sold the carcasses again to recoup some money.

For the box I found a seller had the box only with an entire unused sticker set and instructions that i got for less than $200. And the box is MINT

I think I'm all in on the 100% complete technodrome for < $400 (and that's in 2021-22 dollars so like $1,000,000 in 2026)

4/16/2026 8:53:13 AM

LOL! Nicely done!

4/16/2026 11:36:17 AM

I had this one battery powered TMNT thing that had a gripper that would close around an action figure and turn it sideways before spinning 180 degrees and coming back to you. What was that thing called? I think it's still in a box at my mom's or maybe my nephew has it now.

I also had the van and maybe the pizza disc launcher.

4/16/2026 11:48:35 AM

I've honestly never come across this one, the Ninja Grapplor



I still have al my original stuff (van, sewer, pizza thrower, drill, etc) but they're all in pretty rough shape. I have acquired anything I had complete in box at this point.

4/16/2026 12:47:00 PM

hell yeah that's it

had all the action figures, April, Beebop, Rocksteady, Splinter, Shredder, some brain dude in a mech, a giraffe basketball player dude, probably some more

4/16/2026 1:49:17 PM

lol nvm

[Edited on April 16, 2026 at 1:53 PM. Reason : haha the name is in the pic ]

[Edited on April 16, 2026 at 1:53 PM. Reason : technodome]

4/16/2026 1:52:36 PM

i have no memory of halfcourt

must have been close to the end of the original cartoon

i do have a cool samurai Leo from that era

oh wait... released in 92-93?

lol that money was for grunge and hip hop cds by then

4/16/2026 2:09:26 PM

the wiki says he never appeared on the tv show, just as a toy. I was like 5. Don't even really remember watching the cartoon.

hahaha how are you gonna list off all those regular TMNT names like Beebop and Rocksteady but forget the name of Krang?

That may have been a tie-in with the TMNT3 movie when they went back in time to feudal Japan. The weird thing about it was that the movie was very clearly independent from the cartoon (kind like the Ghostbuster movies vs. the Real Ghostbuster cartoon), but the action figures and other toys based around the movies very clearly used the art style of the cartoons.

4/17/2026 9:13:31 AM

idk dude it was over 30 yrs ago. can't tell you why my brain held onto some things and not others.

4/17/2026 9:34:38 AM

I remember thinking tmnt 3 sucked. Is it worth a rewatch all these years later? I def remember april cut her hair

4/17/2026 12:40:17 PM

It has some interesting visuals but its complete ass as a movie

You're misremembering.

The figures based on the third movie had pebbled skin and much more detailed paint jobs with realistic colors and markings. Their eyes even had pupils. They didn't resemble the cartoon's designs at all.

There was a samurai variant of Leonardo not related to the movie. It was released in 1990, years before the movie. That figure used the usual design elements for the Playmates figures: white eyes, one color for the skin, etc.

In any case, the Playmates figures did not resemble the cartoon's designs very much. The white eyes and facial expressions were much more in line with the Mirage comics. The figures' proportions were very different from the show as well. The Turtles even had different skin colors from each other, while they were identical in the show. About the only elements that matched the show were the colors of their masks and the initials on their belts, and even the belts' designs were different from the ones on the show.
