Turtle worlds will collide in an upcoming episode of Nickelodeon's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Well, the half-hour will see the Turtles known by modern audiences -- voiced by Seth Green, Sean Astin, Rob Paulsen and Greg Cipes -- transported to another dimension where they meet their '80s alternate-reality counterparts. And after meeting their ‘80s counterparts in a 2D-animation world, the entire gang will go back into a CG-animation dimension, "giving their new retro friends a taste of their realm," the network said in a release.
Together, these two quartets of skilled reptiles will team up to fight '80s Krang and Kraang Sub-Prime. (Both are voiced by actor Pat Fraley.)
The network has released fresh footage of the collision of these worlds, which you can watch below.
Moreover, the episode will reportedly offer a glimpse of the Turtles in a comic book world resembling the one created by Kevin Eastman’s Mirage Studios comic book series.
The episode airs March 27 at 11 a.m. ET on Nickelodeon.
