MR. GEEK-E INTERVIEW WITH CHRIS FAWCETT, AUTHOR OF "RAD PLASTIC".

Updated: Jul 26, 2021

Rad Plastic - TMNT Action Figure Book of Concepts, History & Prototypes | Interview w/ Chris Fawcett



Mr. Geek-E sits down with Chris Fawcett, the author and creator of the dense and highly detailed TMNT book “Rad Plastic” that highlights the Turtles plastic and conceptual history (the 2nd printing of which is currently live and running until August 1st over at Kickstarter).


Chris gives Geek-E an insider view into some very early TMNT history, exploring and looking at a wide range of the unreleased conceptual characters, sharing thoughts on the modern lines, as well as casting some predictions for what the very bright (despite lovingly gritty) TMNT future holds.


For longtime TMNT fans, folks who enjoyed Netflix’s “The Toys That Made Us,” fans of “The Toys That Time Forgot”, or pop culture enthusiasts interested in the history of the franchise, this conversation and Chris’s book "Rad Plastic" are ESSENTIAL VIEWING.


Don't miss out on your chance to grab this well-crafted and well-researched book compiling the motherlode of un-PRODUCED concepts, un-SEEN prototypes, and until now un-KNOWN history surrounding the early days of the series and the vintage TMNT toy line!

In This video, we will discuss and view a handful of never-before-seen as well as never-produced figures that never made it into the original Turtles Playmates line... Who is BlackBeak? What is the scourge known only as Machete Yeti? Where did the scrapped Outback-themed line go? Why are you still reading this and not seeing it for yourself already???































We would love to know which unproduced concept characters top YOUR list as well. So get ready to flex those anchovy pizza-sauced fingers and make sure to join the conversation in the comments below.


We appreciate you stopping by, we realize you could have been plunging down a viral meme sewer hole of TikTok videos right about now, and we value you taking the time to check us out.
