SKULLCANDY PAYS TRIBUTE TO TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLE AHEAD OF FRANCHISE'S 40TH ANNIVERSARY

Limited-Edition Collaboration Reimagines Push Active True Wireless Earbuds and PLYR Multi-Platform Wireless Gaming Headset for the Ultimate Crime-Fighting Playlists

PARK CITY, Utah, Oct. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Skullcandy today announced a collaboration with the iconic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise. The Skullcandy x TMNT Push Active True Wireless Earbuds and Skullcandy x TMNT PLYR Multi-Platform Wireless Gaming Headset celebrates the fan-favorite franchise ahead of its 40th anniversary. Inspired by the toxic green ooze that transformed the turtles into crime-fighting heroes, the collection features state-of-the-art audio technology and is dripping with nods to the beloved characters. The limited-edition collab is available now at Skullcandy.com.

"With nods to skate culture, gaming and killer soundtracks, the TMNT franchise shares a lot of core elements with the Skullcandy brand," said Justin Regan, VP of Marketing at Skullcandy. "We wanted to pay tribute to the fandom by redesigning our Push Active earbuds and PLYR headset to ooze nostalgia for the beloved characters. With this exclusive drop we hope fans new and old will cue the theme song, bring out the pizza, and celebrate the fearless foursome."

The exclusive design features transparent and glow-in-the-dark elements. TCRI Mutagen Ooze is poured all over Push Active while PLYR features turtle-shell earcups, a manhole cover inside the ear cushion, a radioactive headband, and pepperoni pizza boom mic. With custom, interchangeable ear gel and suspension headband colorways, fans can rep their favorite reptile–red for Raph's direct attack, purple for Don's calculated strategy, orange for Mikey's controlled chaos or blue if you're ready to lead the Turtles like Leo.
