      They're using Team FourStar. Casting the likes of Rodger Bumpass, Paul Eiding, or Gregg Berger would probably take the game's entire budget.

    Gameplay looks good but the trailer music goes a little too hard compared to the gameplay shown, I hope the in game stage themes fit better. It would really be cool if the arcade beat em up genre makes a come back through old cartoons.

        Oh it should be in the game, in its original form for the opening and an awesome final boss cutscene or fight and maybe a mellowed version for a stage track but I just don't think hard metal version goes well over the trailer or general gameplay.

      As someone who only barely knows of the movie franchise from back-of-video-box summaries, isn't she supposed to be the blind girl that Toxie's in love with? I never saw the show.

        The cartoon just makes her nearsighted.

        The cartoon made her just have incredibly bad vision without her glasses. She still falls in love with Toxie when she can't "see" him, as she's not wearing her contacts, but the gag is that when she gets her new glasses on she still thinks he's handsome-- but she does scream in horror at how disgustingly hideous the tie he chose to wore that day is.

          Yeah, there's other changes, too. Like she's got tights on now, and her clothes are either ripped or have slime on them (didn't get too close of a look). I wonder if they're going to give her or the mom powers in the game storyline to explain why they're fighting alongside Toxie.

          I think it's slime, the other crusaders are have the same green goop on them too. You don't get a good look at it, but at 0:05 you can see Yvonne start to lift up a car, so I'm guessing either whatever trouble Mr Killemoff is causing at the start of the game mutated Yvonne and Toxie's mom to give them superstrength, or they'll just do a retcon and say/imply they were mutated at the same time Toxie and the other mutants were.

          Hopefully the show is too obscure for outrage baiters to get mad about her being designed. I think she looks better tbh. The redesign sort of gives her a punk look.

    But what if the Ninja Turtles come out with a retro inspired beat-em up that is critically and financially a massive success, and it alongside Streets of Rage inspires a whole new wave of retro beat-em up games, and then the Lloyd Kaufman of Troma films decides he wants in on that action and he contracts the people who made the AVGN video game and Team FourStar to make a brand new video game featuring the Toxic Crusaders in the year 2023, and that stops your evil plan?

      As a refugee of the glorious 90's, allow me to welcome you to the world of TMNT wannabes. On your left, you'll see the Biker Mice From Mars, on your right, marvel at the C.O.W. Boys of Moo-Mesa. Or perhaps Street Sharks are more your style?
      No? Then perhaps you'd prefer to settle for the kiddiefication of a B-movie horror gorefest? Troma Films turned The Toxic Avenger into a kids cartoon and renamed it Toxic Crusaders. Now, it's getting a new video game. That should bring you up to speed.

        I mean, when you get down to it, it was the closest to aping the TMNT formula. Sure the other shows were about animal mutants who fought crime, but Toxic Crusaders was something more adult oriented like the original TMNT comics, turned into a Saturday morning toy commercial. And don't forget, well after Turtlemania had come and gone, toy companies and by extension cartoon blocks were trying to mimic it, because you also had Road Rovers, Extreme Dinosaurs, and probably a few more I'm forgetting. Thankfully Power Rangers clones mostly stayed on Fox, because all of those were Saban, and he wasn't about to fight himself.
