Skullcandy Celebrates TMNT's 40th Anniversary With A Pair Of Earbuds and Headphones
With the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) franchise turning 40 years old, personal audio brand Skullcandy has stepped in with a unique TMNT collaboration that combines some of the latest technology while paying homage to the mutant crime-fighters.
"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."
Both devices have really cool glow-in-the-dark elements and tons of TCRI (if you know, you know) Mutagen Ooze green that really make them stand out from yards away. The PLYR adds turtle shell earcups and manhole (driver) covers inside the ear cushions. In terms of customization elements, red, green, orange, and blue eartips (Push) and headband suspension (PLYR) allow owners to color match with their favorite turtle.
In terms of hardware, the Push and PLYR share Bluetooth 5.2 and built in Tile finding tech (i.e, ping your lost device via the Tile app). The Push comes with flexible ear hooks for a more secure fit, Skull-IQ voice assistant, plus IP55 dust-water resistance. Gamers will enjoy the PLYR's Clear Voice smart mic, advanced audio control and customization through Skullcandy HQ (available for PC), and a 2.4GHz transmitter for low latency sound.
