FUNimation has announced plans to release the "Fast Forward" season of
TMNT, which is season 5, or 6, depending on how you look at it. The episodes were originally intended to air as season 6, but they were pushed up a year in order to generate more interest in the series. "Ninja Tribunal," which was intended to be season 5, was shown on the Comcast VOD service, and then removed. Mirage and 4Kids have gone on record as saying that "Fast Forward" is officially season 5, though chronologically it should be season 6.
To make things more confusing, this 2 disc set contains 13 episodes, and the official episode guide at
NinjaTurtles.com only lists 11 episodes for the season, and
TV.com lists 14 episodes!
Amazon.com is
preselling the set for $11.19 (regular price of $14.98) - it'll be released on
February 6, 2007. Thanks to Jorhan for letting us know about this release.
