I know I have bought blue crush before this happened, like a year or two ago. I remember being let down that it was not blueberry flavor. Was pretty sure it was a blue raspberry, so I dunno if this is really a new flavor or what.

Clearly they should have made limited edition lime flavor and branded it as ooze.

That's what I was thinking too! I was drinking one of those limited edition Baja Blast mountain dews recently and I thought it would be perfect for a "mutagen" soda. It's only going to be around for summer as well, and coupled with its already established popularity it seems like the perfect candidate for a TMNT tie-in. But alas, no such luck.
What would also be cool is if they did one of those promotions like they do in Japan where they have little bottle-top figures on each bottle. Those would definitely be a fast seller, but I'm not even sure if they do those kinds of promotions outside of Japan.

First Mac n cheese, now soda... this TMNT obsession is making me buy stuff that I would never ever buy.

Man, I rarely ever drink syrupy soda (I do drink carbonated water, though) but I'd have to buy a bottle of TMNT soda.

Weird food promos still always excite me! I had to have a box of the X-men blue raspberry twinkies, even though I don't really like Twinkies.

Grabbed a Mikey two liter and a 12 pack of Raph. I hate strawberry. Good thing my kid is turning one next month and we can use it for her birthday for my relatives. Keep one can just for display purposes.

A local grocery store called HyVee. I am not sure if those are regional or not.

I haven't seen a HyVee in years. My Grandma use to take me there whenever I would visit her in Nebraska.

I still think it is hilarious that Raph is strawberry. Like they couldn't have made a red fruit punch or something.

There's even a cherry flavor of Crush...I don't know why they chose strawberry, maybe it's more popular?

Yeah I think because Strawberry sells more than Cherry does. All I know is I'd much rather have a Cherry Crush Raph promotion than a Strawberry one. I did see a few Donatello Grape Crush two liters at my local grocery store on Sunday!

Crush PR replied to my e-mail (read earlier in the thread for details), they gave me a list of stores they claim carry Crush in my area.

Some are stores I have already checked but they did give me a few more to try.

I'm hoping to get two cases of each can and one of each bottle. One unopened case for the Turtle collection, one case to open so I can display one of each can in my Turtle collection and one can in my soda collection ( Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Captain America, Thor, Avengers, Dark Knight Rises and Michael Jackson).

I saw one two liter bottle of Mikey Orange Crush, but nothing else last night at my nearest grocery store (Ingles in NC).
