The boys have made friends with a group of homeless, and are worried when they start mysteriously disappearing into the night! Some Turtle-style detective work leads them to the Garbageman, an immense, smelly egomaniac, w... more »ho is kidnapping the homeless for slave labor to build an empire on a foundation of garbage. Sounds like it?s time for the Turtles to take out the trash! Believing the Turtles can accomplish so much more for the city, and inspired by iconic superhero Silver Sentry, Michelangelo decides to take a crack at being a superhero. But he soon discovers superheroism is not all it's cracked up to be. Worse still, he stumbles upon a mind-control experiment by Silver Sentry's arch nemesis Malignus? and ends up battling for his very life against the Malignus-controlled Silver Sentry. With all the turtles living in April?s apartment, things are getting a little crazy. But, when Donatello stumbles upon a fantastic monster in the basement, things get crazier. Donatello meets up with Kirby, an artist renting April?s basement apartment. Through the powers of a mysterious crystal tied to his pencil, Kirby is able to create anything he draws ? including his own world, a world that he and Donatello get sucked into ? where things get curiousier and curiousier. Still recuperating up at Casey?s grandmother?s farm, the turtles are feeling the sting of boredom. Luckily, a scientist known as the "Monster Hunter" has come to the area searching for a legendary monster ? a legend rekindled by the sighting of a green monster lurking in the woods. ("I told you guys to stay out of the woods.") But, with Casey Jones tagging along, Michelangelo and Donatello decide to have a little fun with the Monster Hunter while Leonardo forges new swords with the help of Raphael. It all becomes a bit odd when the boys find some other large green creature besides themselves lurking about. Can they survive both monster and Monster Hunter?« less

"First off, the new Turtles show is great. I have to say it's superior in many ways to the old one. I grew up with the original, but I'm a bigger fan of this one now. With that being said, this video is a dud.
First we have the ubiquous "Character A has made a vauge promise to watch out for [insert usually old and/or feeble never before seen character]'s grandchild/cousin/child/whatever who has (shockingly) gone down the wrong path. Now Character A must turn this troubled kid around for vauge and unexplained reasons in about 20 minutes." Fun! What hillarity wouldn't insue from this?
The garbage guy episode has a very thin plot and just serves as filler. There's nothing much of interest.
The way of invisibility is about an average episode, but when all you're getting with it is the other rubbish, I'd skip it. I had a chance to pick it up really cheap, but except for completeness, it wasn't even worth the few bucks it would have cost me.
Your best bet is to get another turtles tape/DVD. I'd have to suggest The Shredder Strikes, which has at least 2 good episodes and one filler episode which is enjoyable even if it doesn't really fit in anywhere and doesn't make a whole lot of sense."
Turtles rock!

"Ok, so in this dvd, we get a better look at Hun, Shredder's righthand man in the episode Fallen Angel. We also get to see him and Casey Jones face off. The way of invisibility is also a must see because the Shredder is atempting to learn more about the turtles in this episode. I love how this one ends too. Shredder's finally ready to reveal himself to our heros! So don't skip out on this one! Garbage man, however? Didn't much care for it. Its a one shot episode that doesn't really add much to the overall plot of season one. But the other two episodes are pretty excelent."
OVER-PRICED

"I love the ninja turtles, im the biggest fan i think there ever was. I love the 80's and 90's series. And i do love this series, but the price for a disc with 3-4 episodes on it is outrageous. I found this same dvd at Dollar General for $3. After buying it there for 3 dollars it breaks my heart to see 12 dollars for this disc."
