NINJA TURTLES SKATE BOARD SERIES

Each day, different enemies and similar fights! They had only one day off, but this time, they are under attack. In the end, they decide to give up from their day off and complete the mission. What to do about that? Of course, our heroes cannot sit and wait for someone to get hurt because of those enemies. On the way of turning back home in the dark, and suddenly a black ninja appears out of nowhere. Definitely a neat toy.TMNT Decked Out is taking you to dangerous missions like in comics! Today is the day off of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. That’s half the fun of R/C cars, right? If you’re a fan of TMNT or have one in the family that could get a kick out of some R/C action, give this a look. While control is a bit limited, there’s enough to get a slight idea of what you’re doing and have a lot of fun attempting to chase people or pets with it. Overall, while I don’t really think the toy is worth $69.99, it’s definitely a lot of fun.

At the end of the day, I wish there was a switch to turn it off, or just a button to activate the sounds instead. Additionally, if you’re rapidly pressing the spin button and forward button to ATTEMPT to control him properly, the sounds get rather excessive. I think this is a really neat touch that unfortunately gets drowned out by the load motors of the toy, which can probably be remedied by being outside and not stuck inside a trailer. While you press buttons on the controller, the controller will sound off one of several included Mikey phrases brought to you by Greg Cipes, voice actor for Mikey in the current running cartoon. It’s worth noting that the spin feature can actually pick Mikey back up if you happen to tip him over, so that’s definitely helpful too! Your ability to control Mikey lies completely on spinning him around and going straight. Depending on Mikey’s position on the board, he could lean back and do a wheelie while dashing forward, which is pretty neat to see. While this doesn’t really get him anywhere, it does change the direction he is facing while looking pretty stylish. The left button causes Mikey to spin around on the board to emulate a skateboard trick. Nice touch.Ĭontrolling Mikey is a pain in the butt to be honest, to the point where I’m pretty sure the toy was MEANT to be uncontrollable. The R/C portion of the toy lies in the skateboard, which, while chunky, actually looks pretty cool, complete with grip tape on the board, despite the fact that it didn’t need that whatsoever. You can’t pose it or anything, but as a simple statue, it plays the part pretty well. The figure that sits atop the skateboard is holo and basic, but sculped and painted well, looking like the model used on the show flawlessly (other than the screw holes of course).

NINJA TURTLES SKATE BOARD SERIES

R/C Skateboarding Mikey is part of Jakks Pacific’s XPV series of remote controlled vehicles and can be purchased exclusively from Walmart for $69.99. Everyone knows Mikey is my favorite of the Turtle Bros, so when I found out I got to play with a remote controlled Mikey, my day was more or less made.

Jakks Pacific decided to send a little something this Memorial Day weekend, which certainly put a smile on my face when I opened the box.
