Failblog.org TMNT Post

*Master Splinter* · 09-10-2009, 10:49 AM

If you have never heard of Failblog.org it is a blog that posts photos and videos of "Fails". Once in a while they will post a "Win" and in today's particular post they posted a TMNT "Win".

Check it out here.

I thought it might be enjoyable for some...

However, I must note that on this particular "Win" for the turtles Failblog.org Fails on their own with the post title. Right now it is labeled "TNMT Win"... I find it ammusing that a website who points out others misfortunes creates their own in the process.

Enjoy!

Many, many people have already pointed that out in the comments. Along with some rather humorous explanations for "TNMT."

Also, that was hilarious.

The Mirage Studios copyright is on the bottm left of the (I'm assuming) magnet. I'm curious if they actually approved this or not.

I noticed that too... I wish I had one of these... It would look so lovely on my fridge. Even a really nice copy of the image would be nice so I can print my own stickers. How fun would that be?

I would check a Spencers if that store is near you.

Did a little footwork. Yes, this is an officially licensed item.

I think it was just one of those things that didn't dawn on them. I was told that nobody in the approval process thought it was dirty. I honestly think its a generation gap thing. The same reason how "South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut" got passed the sensors.

Spencers... now that is a store I have not heard of in years... They used to have one in the mall here in the area but that was a long time ago... I remember that they had all the best funny shirts... Now you can get those practically anywhere...

Still funny nonetheless. I wonder if these were part of a promotion or something... Maybe Pizza Hut?

It's actually considered sodomy in Virginia, ha. Class 6 felony I think.

Also illegal in Maryland and Florida... I don't know how serious it is though.

It's like 1992 in Spencers and Hot Topic. Tons of TMNT and other 80's/90's cartoons stuff. It seems TMNT is the most popular as they have a ton of it in there.

I saw that magnet and my first thought after laughing and showing all my friends was how did that get past the Mirage guys. In fact the store employee saw I was buying some TMNT stuff (at Spencers) and had me walk over to look at the magnet. I already saw it but the fact that he pointed it out as his favorite thing was even funnier.

Shipoopi02 · 09-10-2009, 05:13 PM

That is....wrong.... Funny, but wrong....

*Raph's Girl* · 09-10-2009, 05:45 PM

Oh?! Those are available now?! Wow... I was shown the picture a couple days ago and my first reaction was "Why isn't there a T-shirt with that on it?!"

Looks like I have an excuse to head to the mall.....*checks out Spencer's website* Oh my gods.... TMNT clothes for infants....I have now officially seen it all....

BoggleKng · 09-10-2009, 06:29 PM

going to Spencer's tomorrow... PM me if you want one, at cost..

*Jephael* · 09-10-2009, 06:39 PM

Aw man, now I'm pissed cause the Spencers at my mall was closed down!

*Master Splinter* · 09-11-2009, 08:05 PM

I am proud to say that I am now a owner of this delightful magnet. I also picked up the magnet with all the turtles in the turtle van and it says Go Green! Plus a couple of buttons, one of each turtle.

You can also see that I updated the 16gb USB TMNT custom. I ended up painting the entire figure black and also painting an extra CD black and mounting the figure to the CD and adding a 25th anniversary button in the center. It looks pretty sharp.
