I remember the Turtles from about 15 years ago. After seeing Casey Jones, I decided to ride the train, high on cocaine, and beat up people with my hockey stick. The cartoon told me too.....

I never was into the power rangers since they started when I was older.

Jax says T right on the box

I remember the 80's and the Arnold Movies all rated R that all the kids likes, as well as Die Hard, Indiana Jones, Crocodile Dundee rated R or PG-13. Most of the cartoons like GI Joe back then even had GASP! GUNS!!!

R rated movies had games based on them for years. Platoon? Die Hard?

And of course Rock Star Games with another M rated game....(That means R ninnies). I have to check out "Manhunt". I liked Vice City and Max Payne(for computer), so I'll take a look at it.

[Az Joe]

I'll take two.

I've been wondering what to get my Great Nephews.
Thanks for the shopping list.

INTREP - PC ALERT

[cryptical]

Good deal, just in time for Yule shopping for my niece and nephews.

My son grew up playing with Ninja Turtles, loved all the movies, faithfully watched the cartoon.

He's almost 18 now and he has not shown any leanings toward becoming a ninja, slapped anyone with a hocky stick or attacked anyone with martial arts weapons.

Hmm..

[halfdome]

What's wrong with the list? It seems like it could be helpful for parents who want to buy video games for their kids, and want to avoid games with too much violence or other objectionable material.

You know, if I were a little more entrepenurial, I'd look into creating a new chain of franchized mall stores - ToyGunz.

We'd sell all the toys that Toys'R'Us refuses to - radio-control tanks that shoot plastic pellets, water pistols, BB guns, etc., etc.

And top it off with an indoor AirSoft range.

I guess he's not like all the young girls everyone around here is worried about -- the ones who turn into tramps from listening to Britney Spears.

You'll put your eye out!

[jdege]

You'll put your eye out!

You're not here to put your eye out for your country, you're here to make the other poor dumb son-of-a-bitch put his eye out for his.

The brand: The seemingly cute Ninja Turtles – being "relaunched" in 2003 -- actually behave according to a vigilante code, where they (and not law enforcement officials) are "judge, jury and enforcer!" The box illustration of another toy in this brand -- the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Combat Lair (for six-year-olds, by Mega Bloks) – depicts a scene of gleeful mayhem as the ninjas fight "bad guys" with ninja chains, swords and overturned barrels. In addition to the TV program, this brand is marketed by three movies and a video game. http://www.konami.com
STFU! What idiots! I'm trying to keep from yelling at my computer right now...

[AngryJawa]

I'm suprised that the "Big Bag 'o Broken Glass" didn't make the list this year.

It was my favorite toy way back when.

[stands2reason]

Here's the recommended alternative toy for boys:

[Moose4]

Wonder what sort of a rating they'd give to Hamas Barbie (complete with burqa and Semtex belt), the Tonka Rachel Corrie Playset, and Osama bin Laden--now with Kung Fu Grip!

A frightening story line for four-year-olds, who don’t fully understand the difference between fantasy and reality.

My four-year-old likes the Power Rangers and is completely clear on the fact that it is a bunch of actors running around in silly costumes battling other actors in rubber monster suits.

I think its funny when he laughs and says, “Ooooh! That’s gotta hurt!” when one of them gets smacked silly.

[P.O.E.]

Here are some cool vintage toys.

[stands2reason]

You must really get off on trolling. That's all you do here.

[Desron13]

Where’s the Viking Kitty action figures set in this list?

[Solson]

Yeah, but I bet he walks around with a backpack on and enjoys pizza...

THOSE DAMN TURTLES!
