Gigantic Michelangelo plush at Wal-Mart

[LuckyLadybug]

So every year around Christmastime Wal-Mart has these huge plushies for only $20. It looks like this year Michelangelo is one of their offerings, as I've seen him at two Wal-Marts. Just thought I'd give a heads-up in case anyone wants a really enormous Michelangelo! He's wearing a Christmas scarf.

Yep. I posted a photo of it on Black Friday. But in case others missed it:



And a slightly cleaner image:




One word of warning for those interested, the distribution of these seems spotty at best. Of the six Walmarts I've been to, only two carried these. (Both were super walmarts if that makes a difference) And in both cases, they have almost completely sold out in just a week. So if you want him and see him, I wouldn't pass it up.

What area of the stores, near action figures?

In both cases I found them in large bins on the end cap in the toy department.

I'm pretty sure he is the largest plush Turtle I have ever seen.

I went to a crappy town fair this year that had that size beat, but the quality was garbage. I tried a few games to win a Don, but I'm terrible at bouncing ping pong balls into floating dishes.

I suppose I should amend that, it's the largest, LICENSED plush I have ever seen.

At my local Walmart they are in the end cap where they have the bean bag chairs, they were actually being squished by them.

I've been turned off by Mikeys current color used for his merchandise so it was an easy pass for me, but he is huge!

That is flipping adorable, what with the scarf and all. Kind of reminds me a bigger Build-A-Bear Mikey.

Sort of glad it isn't Leo, I'm not sure I could have resisted hunting him down if it was equally as cute and really I need to stop spending (plus the lack of space for anything that large).

(Article) Spending increased for annual Shop with a Cop

As soon as 4-year-old Tucker Neill found a life-size Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles stuffed animal during the annual Shop with a Cop event on Saturday, he was content. Neill toted the stuffed animal around for the rest of the morning while his mother urged him to pick out more toys.

“He has had his heart set on that all week,” his mom, Stephanie Neill, said.

Cute

Aww! Adorable! That Turtle really is about as big as the kid.

In my local Wal-Mart, they put them with the Christmas door greeters, which is really annoying because then they're dragging all over the floor. In the next closest Wal-Mart, he was up in the $20 plush bin. And I think it was located close to the toy area. Both are Super Wal-Marts.

If that pic don't warm your heart just a little I'm not sure what will. Future Drome member in the making. Anyway, I'm not able to get to a Walmart until the 18th but I'll be curious to see at that time if my stores have any stocked.

Apologies for the resurrection.

Can anybody help me out with this? Available on Walmart site for $20, but no way to get to the UK. I am in the US in November (Orlando) so wondering if anyone is willing to let me buy and ship to your address and then we'll work out how to get it to the UK or send to my villa address when I am over in November.

I'll cover all the costs ahead of any posting etc.

[go_ninja84]

no apologies needed i just ordered him

sweet price

[IndigoErth]

If I was in that state and area, but sadly I'm not.


I'm curious how many ever saw these. My Walmart never had them. Maybe the bigger Super Walmarts (or whatever they're called) did.

[MikeandRaph87]

Pardon the intrusion,but instead of waiting until November how about have go_ninja84 ship it to you when it arrives and you reimburse go_ninja84 the shipping to the U/K. as well through PayPal?

[Rewdog]

I threw the question out there and not going to be cheeky enough to ask those who have read/responded as they've already seen what I've asked and chosen not to offer help (no problem here). Not going to hound anyone to help me out although would be cool if someone could.

I mean if you're covering the postage, I'll help you.

I would be willing to help also.

Seeing this plush makes me miss my old TMNT plushes (from 1990 I think?).

All 4 of those things were beaten to a pulp by myself, my siblings, and cousins growing up
