Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles bound for space

Nickelodeon asking fans to choose which character they would like to take a trip to space.

Nickelodeon & Viacom Consumer Products is to send one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles into space.

The stunt is to promote the upcoming release of the Dimension X action figure range from GP Flair and season four of the animated show on Nicktoons.

From today (February 5), Turtles fans can vote for Leonardo: Space Captain, Donatello: Space Scientist, Raphael: Space Battler or Michelangelo: Space Traveler to take a trip into space.

Votes can be cast via Nick.co.uk, Nicktoons.co.uk and Nick Play on Android and iOS. Voting will close on February 29, with the winning mutant’s journey recorded and made available online in late March.

“Sending a Turtle into space is a brilliant way to highlight both the new series and the fantastic new line from GP Flair,” said Marianne James, vp, consumer products UK & Ireland & European retail sales & marketing, Nickelodeon & Viacom Consumer Products.

“The success of Turtles products has been metaphorically stratospheric since launch so it is only fitting that we finally get around to literally putting a Turtle into space. My vote is for Mikey.”

The video starring the winning space-bound Ninja will be released to coincide with new episodes of the series in April.
