"Following the incredible success of our 2013 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles LEGO collection, we are very excited to introduce these new super-charged sets that are hotter than ever and are sure to spread Turtle Power globally," said Pam Kaufman, Chief Marketing Officer and President Consumer Products, Nickelodeon.

The spring 2014 Line Includes:

· Karai Bike Escape

Karai has grabbed one of the lost mutagen canisters and is trying to escape on her super-cool motorbike. Attach a rope to the back of the bike with Leonardo and take a thrill-packed skateboard ride through the city streets. Hang on tight as Karai accelerates on the dual-exhaust motorbike and swerves past the roadwork sign. Lasso the rope around the street sign to make the vending machine explode and Karai crash to retrieve that mutagen! Includes 2 mini-figures with weapons and accessories: Karai and Leonardo.

· Turtle Sub Undersea Chase

The Kraangs have got the power cell and are getting away in their mini Kraang sub. Rev up the engine of the awesome Turtle Sub and power away in hot pursuit with Donatello, Leonardo and Leatherhead.

Climb the ladder with Victor, spin the electrodes and knock him into the mutation tank. Turn the knob to activate the mutation. When the transformation is complete, open the doors and unleash the fearsome Spider Bytez. Help Raphael to outwit the giant creature and escape before it grabs him with the huge claws on its head. Includes 2 mini-figures with weapons and accessories: Victor and Raphael, and a Spider Bytez figure.

· T-Rawket Sky Strike

Dodge the Ship's flick missiles and return fire with a sizzling slice of Turtle Power from the pizza shooter. April's dad has been transformed into Mutated Dr. O'Neil, so strap on the backpack glider, activate the ejector seat and launch a Turtle into the air to save him! Includes 4 mini-figures with weapons and accessories: Donatello, Michelangelo, Mutated Dr. O'Neil and The Kraang.

· Shredder's Lair Rescue - Available exclusively at Toys"R"Us:

Shredder has captured Michelangelo in the dungeon of his Lair. Glide to the rescue with Raphael in the cool flying Turtle vehicle. Fly through the windows into the Lair, but stay alert at all times because traps are everywhere. Watch out for the collapsing stairs and the hidden saw blade shooter underneath. Beware of the fearsome four-armed Robo Foot Ninja launching an attack from the flipper. Use the grapple hook of the flying Turtle machine to pull away the dungeon door and free Michelangelo. Turn the Turtle Power on the Foot Soldier to get to Shredder before he transforms his throne into an escape pod and flies out of there! Includes 5 mini-figures with weapons: Michelangelo, Raphael, Shredder, Foot Soldier and a Robo Foot Ninja.
