Title: The Turtles Clock
Post by: Drule on February 21, 2011, 10:12:15 am

Hey guys.

I just looked through my Dropbox folder and found an old image that I think dates back by a few years. It's called the_turtles_clock.png and contains an invention I'd like to tell you guys about.

First off, here's the URL: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2725629/the_turtles_clock.png (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2725629/the_turtles_clock.png)

This is my mockup of the Turtles wristwatch, also known as The Turtles Clock. It's basically a wristband with a plastic TMNT action figure attached to it. There is a digital clock embedded in the stomach of each turtle, and it also has a built in alarm clock so you can sleep with your Turtles Clock and wake up safe and sound in the morning.

Your Turtles Clock will protect you

You can choose between four of the standard turtles (Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello or Raphael) but not Venus (the fifth turtle). You can take off their weapons but you can't swap them as they won't fit each others sockets. You can purchase additional weapons for your turtle, such as the Golden Sais for Michelangelo or the Swift Katanas for Leonardo. Donatello will have a briefcase and Raphael will have a tiny plastic pizza slice that fits in his left hand.

Your Turtles Clock turtle can tell time

Your turtle will announce the current time every hour. This way you won't lose track of time. Oops! Nearly missed soccer practice. Thanks for keeping me informed, Mike! Hey, no problem kid, now where's that pizza slice you promised me? Ha ha ha.

Your Turtles Clock is extremely dangerous

Your turtle's weapon is extremely sharp and could seriously injure or impair you. Studies have also shown that the plastic used to make action figures can be toxic, so your Turtles Clock could potentially be harmful to your health.

One size fits all

Your Turtles Clock fits children and adults alike. The wristband is made out of a patented elastic material, so now both you and your dad can have your own turtles, and switch them as you see fit.

Get your name engraved

You can get your name engraved on your Turtles Clock free of charge. However, there is a risk that the text will portrude and rub against your skin and create a rash, so keep that in mind before you decide to get your name engraved.

Have you decided what sound it will play when the alarm goes off?

If not, might I suggest the theme to DuckTales?

First of all, should I assume the weapons will be made with metal, since you claimed that they can injure? Secondly, will these Turtles Clocks be manufactured cheaply in China, hence the potential for toxicity? Surely there is a way to manufacture a safer Turtles Clock.
