The 1990 Topps Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles trading card set was released to coincide with the first of the franchise’s film releases. The base set of 132 cards feature stills from the movie with a simple white background. The bottom of each card has the card title on a yellow film reel and the card number on a blue movie camera.
Card-backs include a brief description of the action on the front of the card. There are also 11 stickers in this set which are simply character shots on a red background.
The packaging for this set was used as card #17 in the Topps 80th Anniversary Wrapper Art series of cards.
