Now you just need Rat Irma
God there’s still like 3 or four different April Mutations to do yet. Fish woman from the Ray Fillet episode, Wasp Queen from when Baxter turned everyone in channel 6 buggy off the top of my head. And not a Mutant look but there’s Red Sky April in the brown jacket too.
NECA just revealed their Turtle Van!
$250, with an option for a payment plan directly on their website.
A bit smaller than the Super7 one and far less...stuff. But an excelllent toon styled van for all of your display needs.

Wow, now that is the Turtle Van I wanted when I was a kid...
Pretty much.
As for the actual why?
No idea. For being "toy commercials," cartoons in the '80s and '90s were terrible for having what was on screen resemble what was on the shelf.
I did an article about the vehicles in a few cartoons and how they were different from what you could buy. Probably makes it easy to see why this is so appealing to me.

Party Wagon? I mean, sure, everyone wants to party, but it doesn't exactly say "I'm a Turtles product" to me and it's not really even a wagon. Here, Imma help you out here. You need Turtle in the name somewhere. And you know what? Let's call it what it is. It's a van. Sooo...Van Turtle...Turtle Van. That's it. Turtle Van.
But we already sent out all the toys to the stores, sir.
Yup, from now on, it's the Turtle van.
But...sir...
I'll go let the show writers know.

At least they rationalized the 2012 version well enough.
I kind of figured it was a situation where the cartoon was given the working or initial name…and just never bothered to change it. Not that I think it really mattered, it was a Turtles toy and van.
Kids says “I want Turtle Van!” And there’s really only one option for most of the line’s existence. I do wonder if the News6 Van didn’t start out as a “Party Wagon version 2” or maybe a legit “Turtle Van” given the Toon branding.
I don't think that's what caldwin meant, but still awesome.
