Hot off the heals of the official debut of the TMNT Playmates Classics Sewer Lair Playset display at last week’s New York Toy Fair 2025, Toy Shiz has confirmed our suspicions that the Sewer Lair will indeed be an Amazon Exclusive! As you may recall, the TMNT Technodrome Playset was also an Amazon exclusive (which by the way is currently in stock & on sale for $64.79), so this seems to be following suit! We will be on the hunt for the Amazon link, but in the meantime, keep our TMNT Amazon shop page book marked as we will also add the listing to that page as well.
Toy Fair 2025 Reveal
Revealed at the Playmates panel at San Diego Comic Con 2024, the Sewer Lair and the Mutant Module were showcased! In living color comes the amazing Sewer Lair Playset from the TMNT Playmates Classics line revealed at Toy Fair 2025! The box and the full playset was on display in the Playmates booth and we have heard that this is a 1:1 scale with the vintage playset, which is not how the Technodrome was made when it was reissued. The playset was designed to mimic the look of the Turtles’ underground hideout in the sewers of New York City and it is great to have it rereleased!
The playset features multiple levels for the Turtles to play and hang out, including a street-level entrance and a sewer pipe slide for quick escapes. That Technodrome had a pipe on it that connects to none other than the Sewer Lair Playset! If you want to preorder the Technodrome, you can order it HERE. Here are some photos of the top, street level, of the Sewer Lair where you can see the manhole cover, the fire hydrant, and the elevator.
Down below you can see Dontatello and April looking on as he looks through the periscope!
Below we can see the production sample of the new Reissue Sewer Lair Playset on display at what looks like some trade show, and it is connected to the Reissue Technodrome!
We can see the Sewer Lair clos up and it looks incredible! It recreates all the play areas of the vintage including the telephone poles on the street level, the fire hydrant telescope, the pipes and underground lair and all! This is going to be a incredible playset!
SDCC 2024 Reveal
Playmates revealed their incredible reissue playset with the Original Sewer Lair playset! If you remember, they recently released preorders for their Amazon Exclusive Technodrome Playset, released back on September 16, 2024. That Technodrome had a pipe on it that connects to none other than the Sewer Lair Playset! If you want to purchase the Technodrome, you can order it HERE.
The Vintage Sewer Lair Playset
The Playmates 1989 Sewer Lair Playset was a popular toy released as part of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles toyline. The playset was designed to mimic the look of the Turtles’ underground hideout in the sewers of New York City.
The playset featured multiple levels for the Turtles to play and hang out, including a street-level entrance and a sewer pipe slide for quick escapes. It also included features like a trap door, a working periscope, a zip line, and a spinning turntable.
The playset was designed to work with the action figures from the TMNT toyline, allowing kids to recreate scenes from the animated TV show and comic books. The playset was a popular item among fans of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and is now a highly sought-after collectible for both toy collectors and lovers of the TMNT franchise.
The Whole Shebang used the vintage box as a stand in for now until official images have been revealed but we are assuming that the box for the Sewer Lair will be a more vibrant recreation of the vintage box design and we can’t wait to see more official images of this killer playset that will hook up to the Techno Drome!
If you live in the UK or where The Whole Shebangs ships to, you can preorder the Sewer Lair below!
