Thanks in advance.

I'm not in Canada, but check stores like Walmart, Target and Kmart in the bedding section.

I've been checking, but haven't had luck yet. I'm hoping stores here will carry them eventually!

Had to go to the dentist to day and it sucked. Went to Target and finally found a Don to complete my set! Made my day!

The large 2012 plushes are hard to find around here now. I have all four of them, but it took forever to get them, and Target seemed to be the only one around here that stocked them (VA and MD).

My mom got me a Plush Mikey! It was at Target for anyone who is looking.

I was having an awful day when I got my Michelangelo. Totally saved the day! Glad to hear it made someone else's day better too!

Maybe I'm making this up but did anyone hear if the kraang throw pillow was going to be made? It was supposed to be of just the kraang alien and not the droid suit

Hm? I haven't heard anything about a Kraang plush...

*TheCanadiandrome* · 10-18-2013, 12:16 AM

Hopefully will make it to Target to get these

It looks like they are producing a new line of Pillow Pals, targeted to girls. But they are styled after the original cartoon rather than the Nickelodeon show. But they colors are a bit off and they gave them a heart shaped belt buckle. I only found Raphael. I'll have to start checking other stores to see if they produced all four.

*Powder* · 07-19-2014, 12:41 AM

That water mark is pretty haggard, would you like me to make you a fresh one?

Cute plushie, yo.

*Roseangelo* · 07-19-2014, 01:03 AM

I would consider that cute, but the heart belt? WTF?

Wait. What? I MUST be dreaming... In terms of toy items, someone is actually acknowledging that girls like the Turtles too??

Now, if we could not with the idea that something has to have hearts and whatnot (including I'm guessing washed out mask colors) in order to sell to girls... But hey, it's a start.

Now if only girls could be included in the regular toy commercials on tv... (And make them a gender neutral toy aisle... stores don't know what those are anymore.)

psychturtle · 07-19-2014, 09:17 AM

My daughter will love that

Heather Breckel · 07-19-2014, 10:18 AM

While I'm glad they're making a product for girls, the heart belt is weird. I had a ginormous Mikey plush that was bigger than me when I was little and they didn't need to bribe me with girly things.

Sadly, the pillow pal is the least stereotypical of the items that I saw. As I recall, the blanket was muted grey and had the Turtle's faces in large hearts.

Target actually has quite a bit of little girls clothing and things with OT Turtles art on them, I remember seeing a shirt and tutu set that had Leo on it with a lot of pink and hearts on it. While I do find them adorable and would buy them if my little guy was a girl, I do agree that its very steriotypical.

*Donatello19* · 07-19-2014, 05:58 PM

I hate how they think that girls wouldn't buy something unless it's pink and drowned in glitter, hearts, rainbows and unicorns. So stupid

*IndigoErth* · 07-19-2014, 06:05 PM

Yeah... I mean, not that some of this stuff doesn't sound cute, but really now. Someday we're going to have a whole generation that live in a houses that looks like they belong to middle class Barbie because as kids the vast majority of the color spectrum wasn't "for girls." How they going to handle it when they can't find a hot pink glitter kitchen sink for their pink and pale purple kitchen.

Real women like blue (and other colors). And Turtles. And Turtles in blue (or other colors..). I don't need Leo covered in glitter in order for me to wuv him. He probably wouldn't appreciate that anyhow.

*Donatello19* · 07-19-2014, 06:13 PM

Colors are colors. There aren't certain colors for specific genders, that's stupid. If a boy likes pink, good for them, and if a girl likes blue, then good for them.
