Shell Cell = COOLEST toy yet!

JoshBYawn · 08-03-2003, 02:32 AM

I picked up the Shell Cell tonight at Wal-Mart Supercenter. They had just put them out. I got it home, and started playing with the Try Me button through the hole in the box. There are some REALLY sweet samples in there -- not stuff taken out of the show, but NEW lines. The best one is the new Mikey doing the movie Mikey's infamous "I LOVE BEING A TURTLE!" line. I LOVE IT! At right under $20 including tax, you all DEFINITELY need to pick this up.

And on a side note, there was a kid around age 12 there who totally nearly soiled himself over a Casey Jones figure. There were tons of them there, but yet he all but dove onto the shelf for it. Then, he handed it to his accomplace, who I gather was his brother, and told him to "put it in Momma's cart underneath something." I'm thinking, "Yeah, that'll work just fine until she puts those giant underwear onto the counter to be checked out and sees Casey looking up at her from underneath." In the words of Splinter -- "Kids..."

sorry that was me.

Yes, it's defiently one of the best things out yet. However, a $14.99 price tag is a bit bunch i think. They could lower it 2-3 $?!?!?!?!

I'm not into these roleplaying sets. If I want a cell phone, I want one I can use to call somebody with. If I want a pair of Sai's I'll go to army barracks and buy a real pair for 20 bucks.

Well, to be fair, they ARE intended for kids who are like, 5-10, not teens and early 20-somethings. I don't think they actually were *expecting* you to buy em, cqb.

*cqb101* · 08-03-2003, 07:49 PM

I know, I know.

E-money · 08-03-2003, 08:05 PM

Well, thats not a good marketing techique? now is it? I would make it so everyone would want it, hehehe. So anything ewn TMNt comin out figure wise or what?

JoshBYawn · 08-03-2003, 08:17 PM

Well, for what it's worth, I do have the real weapons for each turtle, mostly identical to those used in the movies. There were some pictures on my pics of my room thread...somewhere...

I finally found the Shell-Cell today. It is cool. Unfortunatly, it was $16.99 where I was, and I didn't have that much on me.

My brother practically had to pry it from my hands... But I'll go back for it. Soon.

**azure turtle** · 08-08-2003, 02:24 PM

Ow!! No need to get all violent, SC! I swear the evil company won't get any more of my money! After I get that Shell Cell... heh heh So please, don't send the undead after me!! *shakes in his shell*

And hey, pyscho turtle dude! It has been a while, hasn't it? It goes well. Hope things have been good with you, too.

**Nturtle** · 08-08-2003, 02:33 PM

Shell cell toy?! I've been out of it for 3 weeks so whats this all about a shell cell toy now?

I don't see it on the official site...

**azure turtle** · 08-08-2003, 02:49 PM

Yeah, I was surprised to hear about it too! But the Shell Cell is apparently out now. Take a look at Josh's collection thread, and you can see the box in the pic. Pretty sweet.

I always wanted the turtle comm and never got one. This is a chance to get something close.
