That is frightening! If i had the choice between a big headed oversized DOLLY and a green halfway normal sized mutant turtle costumed person, hell no freaking contest.

Are TMNT coming to the U.K as well we got Toys R us as well

This morning, I was watching the Channel 5 (NBC) morning news. They mentioned about the two Super Toys R Us/Babies R Us grand openings.

One is in Allen & the other is @ Irving. Grand opening set for Halloween.

Irving, TX
TOYS"R"US/KIDSRUS - IRVING
3125 W. AIRPORT FREEWAY (TEXAS Hwy 183)/IRVING, TX 75062
October 31 (Halloween)

This could be official or unofficial.

If it's official, I would love to take pics of Mikey & me. That would be so cool!

At least your state didn't get left out completely

That would have been great if you would have known though. You would have had to get some pictures

Wow, this is probably the first time Connecticut has ever been on ANY touring schedule.

Despite being an important state, we are so ignored by the rest of the country...

Though, yikes, a Friday afternoon? Who the heck is going to be able to go to something like that on a FRIDAY AFTERNOON. Not like my parents could pick me up from the high school and say "sorry, we're taking our son out of school to see men in Turtles costumes". ><

*Drtooth* · 10-15-2008, 08:24 PM

heh... I thought TRU stopped doing fun stuff like this all together. TRU just seems like it's there.

On TMNT-L, there was a girl from the Houston area who wanted to go see them @ Greenspoint Mall on their Radio Disney tour. But her older sister refused to drive her there just to see guys dressed up in Turtle costumes. Be thankful your parents aren't like her.

At least we won't expect Wayne Grayson to sport a Mikey outfit (LOL).

They did appear at the Bristol Galleries a couple of years ago when the 4Kids related toyline was still strong down these parts. It was some sort of cross promotion with Woolworths or something, which I almost attended but had a commitment clash.

We wont ever get anything like this again, at least not now since there's nothing to advertise.

*Hero* · 10-16-2008, 04:44 AM

They're not there now except for a load of DumpJumper toys they can't sell.

Boy did I get TRICKED!

First, I rode the Dart (Dallas bus service) over there. Then I found out that the location is NO MORE, GONE, OUT OF BUSINESS!

Then I learned from word of mouth that it moved over to I-635 & MacArthur. way out north of Irving with NO bus service possible.

And my digital camera had low batteries. So looks like no pics of me & Mikey. I'm out $5 (bus fare) & got TRIPLE TRICKED, NO TREATS!

I can't find the original schedule on the mirage site. Anyone have any updated info? I live about 3 minutes from the Chino Hills store, where they're slated to be tomorrow. The store just opened last weekend and they've been having events all week, so I assume it's still a go.

*Guitar_Raph* · 12-16-2008, 08:44 PM

A few days ago, I did find that new Toys R Us. It's located where I said it was before, near I-635 & MacArthur. I was wrong, there's bus service there after all.

So I asked them about the grand opening on Halloween & indeed they did have one. However, it was only Donatello to appear, no one else.

Looks like I owe apologies to everyone.
