TMNT Party Wagon Coin-op Ride

jwiz154 · 10-02-2011, 03:50 PM

Hi Everybody! It's been awhile since I posted anything, but had to when I saw this. I just returned from vacation. While I was away, I saw this "kiddie ride", at the outlet mall. I've never seen it before and thought you all would enjoy the pictures! And yes, I did try to see if it was for sale. No luck!

Wow. That's stellar. I've seen TMNT themed coin op rides, even a turtle van, but never one this awesomely intricate. Great colors, too.
None of the turtle vans I'd ever seen had the actual turtles on 'em. I would've tried to cram myself in for a ride.

Hah! That thing is crazy.

Were you in the Kentucky area by chance? I think I've seen that thing before in a mall.

Doubt it. By the look of those palm trees my guess is either Florida or California.

*BubblyShell22* · 10-02-2011, 09:53 PM

Yeah, someone on Stealthy Stories posted this. They had their daughter ride in it, and they had a hard time getting her out of it.

*Cowabunga Carl* · 10-02-2011, 11:44 PM

There is one in Medford OR also. Or at least there was when I lived there.

You would be correct, sir! This was taken at the Premiere Outlet Mall in Orlando. Still wish I could figure out how to fit it in my luggage.

Is Donatello giving Leonardo a pat on the back?
Either way, that is a neat picture.

**GK Punk** · 10-03-2011, 02:45 PM

We have one of those at the local mall here. We discovered it when a friend went to go try on dresses, so we retreated outside of what ever store she was in haha.

*Jephael* · 10-03-2011, 04:46 PM

Those are some awesome images! I wonder how many of those rides were made.
