The logo on his belt looks like it says "Wickes", which is a furniture store. I don't know why the Turtles would advertise furniture, but they did a lot back in the day. :lol: I've not seen that commercial before myself, but judging by the quality it looks like it was locally broadcasted, so it's possibly that a select region may be the only ones who knew about it.

It was a local commercial, so I doubt too many people saw it.

When I first went to that page it didn't fully load correctly and I wasn't able to download the video of the commercial or read all of the text there. Like a few people mentioned, it was a local commercial from Nebraska. So chances are if you weren't living there at the time you probably wouldn't have seen it (except possibly later on online).
It is a freaky looking costume.

I gave him both those ads. This forum is actually how he got a hold of me. My SN is available so he imed me for the TMNT cookies commercial and in the process I also found that weird contest ad and asked if he wanted that too. If you want the IM log I probably still have it.
Edit: I have found part of the log. For some reason the other half is missing.

That's great Deathknight! I'm glad you got this hideous thing out to the masses, so we can all point and laugh at it.

Yes it's quite scarey isn't it? :)
Then again it's not like the TMNT had very good commercials for their other products anyway.

Your right remember the costumes they used for that Bowling game commercial :| . I feel like tackling that Mikey costume. Remember the costumes thay used like when they came to Malls I liked those they looked like the action figures. Heres a Tidbit: Last year at my High school these two guy's in Incredible Crash Dummie costume's come in the lunch room. And we were throwing stuff at there head's. :lol:

They are very scary looking aren't they, They'd probly give kids Nightmares. :(. Demented turtle heads, Ripped jean jackets, Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! :o .
just when you think you have seen it all
i personally think Barney kidnapped Mikey and zapped him with a ray gun. this made him transform into a Barney-like creature, doing Barney's bidding where Barney is banned
well it could happen!

I love X-E's comments! Here's the snippet for that Barney-like photo:
Yup, Michaelangelo. It's the worst TMNT costume I've ever seen. The head is roughly the size of a Buick, while the rest of the garb is so lanky and folded that our hero might as well have carried a "I'm made of polyester" sign around while frequently taking off his mask to make lewd gestures with his tongue. Even worse is the guy they had narrating it -- it was supposed to be Michaelangelo as he sounded on the cartoon, but it came off more like Michaelangelo after a three-year trip to Britain where he had chunks of metal permanently affixed to his tongue. Tying this whole thing together, Mikey's belt buckle featured Delicious' company logo. For reasons I'm still trying to figure out, the end of the spot showed Michaelangelo -- all 600 lumpy pounds of him -- jogging in an Omaha park looking about as mobile and fluid as a collection of dead monkeys would when ordered to jog.
:lol: omg, that's so hilarious!
