Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Halloween Costumes

September is more than half over which means that Halloween is right around the corner. Before you know it you will have costumed characters ringing your bell and they won’t all be salesmen.

Spirit Halloween stores are starting to pop up and they have a HUGE selection of costumes, so I decided to browse their website for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and in the process I have learned a few things.

The most important being that has long as you have green and yellow somewhere on your costume, you can be a Ninja Turtle.

Some of the costumes are really cute:

There are also Turtle costumes that are specifically aimed at girls….and I really have to ask the question, why?

The others are simply green and have accessories in the colors of the Ninja Turtles. Other than the weapons, which are not included in the costume, I see nothing Ninja Turtle about them.
Then there are the women’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. These make some sense:
