- "SAN FRANCISCO. The home of eight-year-old Max, his twin sister Mabel, and their baby brother Monty. Beneath the hustle and bustle of six little feet, lay another world, six feet below those six little feet, in a universe known as CRAWLSPACE, where life slows to a crawl.
SNAIL FRANCISCO. The heart of the snail community on Earth. "A snail's pace makes for a happy place.", and if Snail Francisco's citizens agreed on one thing, it was life could rush by you unless you knew how to "take it slow".
But bad times were coming--and fast! The Lunarticks, under the iron pincered rule of Zug, the Supreme, have targeted Earth for Tick Infestation and plan to launch their invasion by conquering Snail Francisco!
"Once Snail Francisco is ours," promises Zug, "We'll commence Operation Headstart to infect every host child on the planet!"
"And these three will be our first heady conquests," adds Armorkillo.
"Snail Francisco, here we come!" drools Drool.
In the onslaught of the Lunartick invasion, the intergalacticks ally themselves with a rebel group of insect defectors called the Infects to help secure their vile victory. The Lunarticks equip the Infects with their own Turbo Flex shells that also fire the parasitic projectiles called satalice into the heart of an unsuspecting snail populace.
In the ensuing mayhem, a lone snail managed to escape and sends out a desperate call for help on the shallow hope that someone might heed their plea.
And deep in the outer realms of Crawlspace, in the agalaxy known as Crust Station 7, that shallow hope is answered.
A salvage ship, the S. Cargo, manned by a crew of Interstellar snails called Snailiens, picks up the faint distress call. Though they are under directive not to interfere with other worlds, the four Snailiens can't ignore the desperate call for help.
"We must heed their need". says the captain.
"Their only hope is us not saying nope", adds the chief engineer.
The Snailiens change course for Earth to attempt a renegade rescue mission.
Under the leadership of their captain, the Snailiens don their exo-armor and armaments. Fighting fire with fire, the Snailiens use their Sonic Shells and Shellshots to battle the clear and present danger of the Lunartick scourge.
"Let's kick some tick!" rallies the captain.
The Lunarticks take a licking but keep on ticking.
As the Snailiens battle to save Snail Francisco, Max, on his way home from school, spots the abandoned S. Cargo in the bushes in front of his house. "Way cool shell," coos Max and decides to keep it.
Before the Snailiens can do anything to stop him, Max takes the space ship inside and places his new prized possession on the highest shelf of his bedroom.
"That should keep Monty away from it," Max beams, secure that his baby brother--and tragically, the Snailiens too-- will never be able to get to it.
The price the Snailiens have paid to become heroes is a high one. Stranded, strangers in a strange new world, the Snailiens realize they'll never see their home again.
"All we have now is each other", encourages the Snailien captain. "And our memories to keep our home alive in our hearts."
In an act of unselfish courage the Snailiens decide to join the cause and help the Snails in their struggle against the Lunarticks and save Snail Francisco and all childrenkind from tick infestation.
Moved by the Snailiens plight, the citizens of Snail Francisco vow to help their new allies once the Lunarticks are defeated. Unable to pronounce their native Snailienese names, the Snailmates give each Snailien a new name, knighting them in honor of the great leaders who have come before them--and also happened to drop out of the pockets from the upworld into theirs.
Washington...
Jefferson...
Roosevelt...
Lincoln...
"Go, Go, S. Cargo!!!", cheers all of Snail Francisco.
And so on that day, with pride in their bearing, looking bravely out at this new world before them, the real adventure for our Snailien heroes was about to begin... - Розваги
God damnit woolie
It begins.
Blame Woolie and matt for the upcoming comments.
Pat's favorite toyline!
*Super best friends brought me here!*
It turns out the Woolie hole was a gateway to Snail Francisco all along.
To this day, I hum this Snailiens song whenever I hear the word lunatic.
I have had this jingle stuck in my head since I was 4😂
I used to imagine I was the kids in the commercials and actually used rocks and papers to pretend they were toys.
Childhood 🤘
As a kid in the 80's, I used to read Hamster Vice which was an excellent comic where Snailiens originated from.
When I'm with a group of folks talking about TMNT knock-offs, nobody ever believes me when I mention these guys!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I just found these again. I thought it was a fever dream form my childhood!!
OH MAN! I remember having all of them except for their vehicles. Nothing like a blast from the past!
Thanks for posting this, I was looking for this commercial for a long time. I had Roosevelt and that was all I needed lol.
Man those guys kicked ass, I had a couple. And they had little tick sidekicks!
That just made my day. I remember the song from this commercial perfectly! And I had all of these.
I had me some back in the day. Almost forgot them.
So who wasn't brought here by Super Best Friends?
me. I was just reading a list of horrible TMNT rip-off's and had to know if this one was real.
Nah. This was just a random occurrence for me.
Me because i had these toys and couldn’t remember if i was dreaming or not lol
I remember having some of these. then the dog chewed up the actual characters when they were out of their armor. so I made replacements out of play-dough.
WOW!!! I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMERCIAL FOR A LLLLOOOOOONNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGG TIME! Thanks for the upload and trip down memory lane.
I remember these guys, I had them all!!!
I had Lincoln!!!
So the turtles were named after artists of the Italian renaissance and these guys are named after our most beloved presidents?
Garden vegetable eaters vs blood eaters
Ooh lord, I've been looking for this for years! Just figured out what it was. I had all of them, as well.
Mashup week megamix
First time i hear about this toy line was on an episode of travel channel's toy Hunter.
Am I the only one that looked this up out of Nostalgia and actual childhood memories... and did not do so because of some shitty vblog?
i just posted my review on these guys!!!!!! SO AWESOME!!!!!!
i need this in my life
Ebay has them
These guys and Battle toads are the best TMNT parallel.
People always think TMNT was the first when we all know it's Oz.
Think about it. A team of young anthromorphs fighting an evil villain. A Lion man, an Android, and a living scarecrow help a young woman to defeat an evil villain.
The villain even has minions with the flying monkeys. The wizard is almost like a splinter too.
Yeah. Bet you thought TMNT was the first to do that huh. :{J
One of the sadly forgotten toys of my youth. I just figured out what they were called today... Who was the voice of Washington there? It sounded very familiar.
sadly forgotten is right!!! i just found all 8 of them in mint condition box and all…took me years to find them!
I have always believed it was Gary Chalk, who voiced a lot of characters in the 80s and 90s. His most memorable to me include King Hippo, Guts Man, Optimus Primal, along with his film roles.
Aw man I remember these fellas.
I always thought the theme song sounded a little like Black Sabbath's Iron Man.
goddammit woolie
The Zaibatsu should buy the rights to Snaliens
Nicholas Colacicco sorry best friends raided your video
dear god why
Not the worst TMNT ripoff out there but close.
What. The. Hell. Is this. No, no, it's more like "WHY the Hell?"
I googled TMNT ripoffs out of curiosity. Is this too deep?
