We’re all completely devoted and slightly crazy (some more than others) when it comes to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Some Shellheads are comfortable just owning a few TMNT action figures, a couple t-shirts etc. While others need to own Turtles merch from every country in the world! Then there are some the ultra hardcore Turtles geeks who wear something associated with TMNT out no matter where they go. They may wear a Turtles tee out on a Friday Night. They might wear green tennis shoes to a dressy occasion. The ultra hardcore Turtles fan also owns movie props from any of the live-action Turtles movies. And yet, there are still those Turtles fans that actually transcend the ultra hardcore Turtles fanatics, and those folks–who’ll call “Turtles Sleepers”–go beyond just being a fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. They become the Turtles in their own way, they root their lives in the TMNT universe in some way. One easy way to do that is to transform one’s bedroom into the ultimate shrine to TMNT or to change your bedroom into one of the Turtles living locations.

What follows are some of our favorite examples of TMNT fans who have gone beyond the call of duty of fandom and combined their world with the Turtles.

and if you don’t have the money to turn your own bedroom into a Turtles Shrine like those above did, you can always just buy a bunch of pizza boxes and make furniture out of them. You know the Turtles would’ve done it!
