With the massive success of the first movie (and its trading cards) and the continued popularity of the franchise, of course there was going to be a sequel. 1991 Topps Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze trading cards capture a lot of the action and increasingly creatures that make for some of the most memorable moments. Yes, the Turtle Rap makes and appearance as well.
1991 Topps Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze Checklist Details
This really is a fairly simple and traditional set without much in the way of surprises. The base set has 99 cards so not small for a movie release but not exactly a marathon of a build, either. After starting off with some character cards, the 1991 Topps Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II checklist quickly shifts into story mode. It goes through the film from start to finish with more action from Raphael, Michelangelo, Donatello and Leonardo. You’ll also find Super Shredder and a couple of new villains, Rahzar and Tokka, amongst others.
A couple of cards feature the “Turtle Rap” scene. However, if you’re expecting a cameo from Vanilla Ice, you’re not going to find one.
The red-bordered design isn’t all that memorable, but the inner frames do a good job of integrating one of the movie’s key items into things. A vile at the top doubles as a spot for the caption while the leaking ooze runs down the side to reveal the card number. Backs are green and feature the film’s logo and a write-up. It’s not groundbreaking but it does the job.
Stickers return, landing one per pack. With only 11 in the set, they’re not too hard to put together, either. Backs form a puzzle.
1991 Topps Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II is a fun set. And while it doesn’t seem to be quite as plentiful as the cards from the 1990 film, there’s still quite a lot of it out there. This is just as much a testament to the industry at the time as virtually everything saw big production numbers at this point.
