You could try the X1 Blade shoe inserts:
I've also heard of people running in trail shoes that have a stiff "rock stop" plate in the forefoot.
I
have a similar problem, though it's in the first knuckle of the big toe
instead of the MT joint. I can flex my toe up and down but I can't bend
it. I find that a little padding under the MT joint works pretty well
for me. Dr. Scholl's Molefoam padding is cheap and easy to use. I cut
off a piece of molefoam about the size of two fingers and attach it to
the under side of my sock liner, just about there the metal "blade" in
the X1 orthotic is. Again,, something like that might work for you too,
but it really depends on how bad your turf toe is.
