Anybody seen this!?

About 3 years ago I went to a arcade in Rapid...And I saw a TMNT game,it wasn't the arcade game or the pinball machine.There was green golfballs that you had to put in the machine,the golfballs would go in between a bunch of peg things.Behind the pegs and a clear plastic cover there was pictures of the 4 TMNT,and in the middle there was the OT tmnt logo.Was this thing licensed?does anyone have a picture of it?or does anyone own it?

I remember this! I was just thinking about it the other day! The Chuck E Cheese I used to go to as a kid had one. I don't exactly know what it was but you'd drop the balls in and they'd go down the pegs from left to right and if it dropped into the hole you'd get tokens or whatever. It was kinda like upside down pin ball minus the switches. I don't know what the game was called but I'm sure it was officially licensed as we've both played it... there had to have been tons of em in different places.

Probably. I find it funny that a arcade would still keep a game that old.

i've played this before at a Chuck E. Cheese as well. Only like twice though since I never got too many tokens for it, plus the Chuck E. Cheese i went to had the Simpsons arcade game.

Wow almost 600 bucks for that? Other than the cool sound effects and phrases that the TMNT said this pizza drop thing really sucked. I guess it'd be cool to have if you are a collector.
1000th post yay!

Thats odd. Thats the thing I'm talking about but the one I played had different graphics inside of it. It was solid neon green with just the heads of each turtle as a backdrop rather then the tough guy full bodied figures. Anyway, neat find & thanks for solving the mystery...

I coulda swore the pegs were different too...

Wow it's so funny I was just thinking about this game the other day too. I really enjoyed even though if you strip away the turtles it's just plinko from the price is right. I used to play it at Chuck E Cheese too.

Although my memory of playing it is pretty clear, I can't remember exactly which version I played, but I'm pretty sure it was that full figured TMNT one. If you guys keep on top of this and find the just heads one I'd like to see it too.

Yeah I remember seeing that as well. It's like the Plinko you see on the Price is Right.

Sadly, I haven't been to a Chuck E. Cheese in years--no reason to go anyways. but oh well. Thanks for the memories.
