That is all.

Ummm, Last I checked he was a Producer.
Ninja Turtles (2014) - Cast & Crew - IMDb
So yeah, he absolutely has something to do with this film.

Also read these exerpts from the leaked script that has also been rumored to have caused the movie to be pushed back to a later release date.

Michael Bay's TMNT Script Has Leaked, Confirms Worst Fears | Geekosystem

I don't remember public backlash against Jim Henson bringing the Turtles to the big screen. But I was a kid in the 80's, so I wouldn't really remember or notice such things. So to Black dynamite's point, you're likely to care less if you weren't a fan of the 80's cartoons or at least grew up in that era, because you have no investment of time in them to have it matter.

I personally don't care for Michael Bay's take on Transformers, but I'm happy a new generation of kids have a new found TF fever. I don't see how the Turtles could ever be more popular nationwide today than during the Jim Henson created movie turtles. We'll see.

Maybe if he made them the Teenage Mutant Mixed Martial Arts Turtles they would resonate more with today's audiences?

Anyway, BD I don't think they're out of stores I think stores are just out of them because they get bought up as soon as they hit the shelves.
