TMNT mall tour!

*Raph's Girl* · 04-12-2005, 08:22 PM

From the official TMNT site:

KOL is sponsoring a 17 city mall tour that the Turtles will be a part of, featuring signage and hand out give-a-ways. The signage promotes the Turtles' appearance on 4KIDS TV. 4Kids will be giving out Turtles products at the tour appearances.

The mall tour is called "The Kids Time Extreme Mall Tour” (“KTMT”).

KOL is a Premiere Sponsor of the KTMT (AOL is also the Exclusive Online Partner of the Mall Tour) which is scheduled to appear in 17 shopping malls throughout the country and will feature kid friendly and educational activities. KTMT estimates 700,000 individuals will attend the Mall Tour (kids + parents).

KOL is promoting the Mall Tour via local TV and radio ads, inclusion in the Sports Illustrated for Kids Magazine, KTMT banners, posters, flyers, signage and other promotional materials that place the KOL logo, including food court table tents, mall signage, pamphlets, brochures, and stage decorations. Check out the schedule below and if you live in the area that the tour is passing through, keep your ear to the ground to find out where it will be taking place - and then get down to the mall to score some Turtles stuff!

TheShowstoppa · 04-12-2005, 11:16 PM

Hehehe... I'm only an hour away from the mall that I'm going to go to! GO GREENWOOD MALL IN INDIANA!!!!

I'm so there... probably take my sister so I can get the freebies without feeling guilty!

*zkarlette* · 04-13-2005, 11:47 AM

Ohh ......I have to wait till October

I better not miss this....

*cowabunga14* · 04-13-2005, 11:47 AM

Hopefully I can go to of the events. I live in CA and I'll probably go to one of 'em. I gotta go to the one that's cloesest to my house. Is it free to get in?

*zkarlette* · 04-14-2005, 02:51 PM

I belive if its a mall event it should be

04-14-2005, 02:55 PM

And once again... Canada gets the shaft...

*Raph's Girl* · 04-14-2005, 06:01 PM

Tell me about it..Washington State is reduced to having Spongebob Squarepants and Arthur the Ardvark show up at the Puyallup Spring Fair....

Why couldn't the TMNT show up in Puyallup?!

Everybody else seems to!

TheShowstoppa · 07-27-2005, 11:54 PM

I wanted to bring this back up to see if anyone has been to one. I'm going to the one this Saturday at the Greenwood Mall in Indiana and I just wanted some heads up to see what all is there and what cool stuff I could get.

I'll post Saturday night and let everyone know how it was and I'll try and take pics.

*Dane E5R* · 07-28-2005, 01:12 AM

Of course, nothing ever comes to Kansas.

*Weapon X* · 07-28-2005, 08:04 AM

Doesn't look like I'll be seeing them either. Damn.

TheShowstoppa · 07-31-2005, 12:43 AM

First off, let me tell you that I went to the Mall Tour in Greenwood, IN today....

Now let me tell you that everyone here can stop their bitching about it not coming to their town... UNLESS you are under the age of 13. Which in case you might have found this fun!

I figured that TMNT would have a big displaying, something that would catch my eye and be great. Toys, Comics, the whole shebang... This was not the case. The whole entire "setup" took up only an intersection of the mall. Tyco had the biggest set up of the whole thing. There were Karate kids there doing demos so that their dojo could get buisness. The worst thing of all, TMNT had one tiny little cardboard sign... no bigger than a large mag, with something to do with AOL on it. The top says there would be giveaways... this is true... but the only thing they gave away was TMNT Trading Cards.. most of which I already have. By no means was this a big event either... we passed through this thing twice... once at 1 pm and once at 3 pm when we left the mall. These would be the busiest times in the mall and there were more kids at the food court than there were at this mall tour.

Trust me... consider yourselves lucky. There was nothing special by any means about this mall tour unless you have children. What a waste of an hour of my life for something I thought might more involve TMNT....

Psssh, untrue! *I* came to Kansas! XD My best friend in the history of ev lives there. There's also a giant creepy possibly illegal CAVE AUCTION that lives there. And A NINJAMACHINE AT THE WALMART!!

Wow...I got really excited about the mall tour, really disapointed at not coming to my state, then thought it was already over... and now it seems like I didn't even miss anything ;p thanks for the review of it though!

*Buslady* · 08-01-2005, 10:31 AM

I think it sucks they're only in Burbank...they need to go south!

Like...Tyler Mall...in Riverside...

I know where the Cumberland Mall in GA is...just a little too far to drive though!
