Talking Does anyone remember this toy that i can't find the name of it?

Also forgotten, I used to have like a handheld driving toy shaped as the turtle van.
Had a sterring wheel and like a LCD screen where you had to avoid the foot clan trying to get you.

Does anyone remember it coz it was quite brilliant for a handheld game back in the early 90's.

I'll post a pic of it the day i manage to actually find one.

Mike

First clue found on the internet: someone else is looking for it

"But these are pretty cool, I'm a tad young to remember these things, but I do remember plenty of similar items from when I was a child. In particular a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles racing(?) game that was shaped like their van from the cartoon series"

Yar, there was on on Ebay several weeks back, in the package even but I can't for the life of me recall what it was named.

I may have saved the pic, but if so it's BURIED in my documents folder somewhere and I couldn't find it just now.

I'll keep looking and post later if it turns up.

I can't give you a name, but I remember loving it as a kid. There wasn't much of a game to it, but it was fun nonetheless.

It was also, much to my parents' chagrin, incredibly loud.

1 vocabulary point to Cipher for chagrin.

That's cool but I have a comment. I don't recall any of the turtles being a big fan of guns, unless the game tells a story where the shooter is not a TMNT?...I dunno... Why get only 30 points for a small headshot, but 50 for hitting Shredder in his big metal armor.

Oh yeah...It says..."Fires Rapid Action Metal Balls"...lol

Sorry to bring up dead threads, but I was looking through pics on my hard drive and stumbled upon this pic. I'm pretty sure I stole it from tokka or somebody a while back. Anyway, it looks like its called the Turtle Dashboard.

Am I the only one who can't see the picture? I want to see the coolness too.

HI! What do you think he means by this sentence? Is it maybe the Dashboard he is talking about? "I have the original kids sized turtle van"

Hey, A friend of mine told me that playmates released the figure of a tourist alien that appeared in one episode of the old show. Is that true? What´s the name of that alien?
Cheers!

I think your talking about Frip the Polarisoid, and he appeared in 2 episodes of the OT. I don't think Playmates ever released a figure of him.
