Earlier I was talking to a friend of mine while she was watching Aladdin, and we talked about cartoon bedsheets and how she used to have Aladdin ones. I mentioned that I had TMNT ones, and apparently her family had them too, and she still uses the pillow case!

It got me to thinking, "just how popular was the set?" Do any other Gaffers have them still? And is it also common to not have the comforter anymore? Because me and my friend both don't know where ours are.

 

[JdFoX187]

Still have the bedspread, but it's hanging over my window after my cats tore up my blinds.

 

[blame space]

I have a pillow loosely shaped liked Leonardo

 

[Quick]

I had a Zelda set.

I wish I had that when I was a kid.

 

[wenis]

my mom still has my pillowcases, but the blankets never made the move back in 95'.

 

[ChiTownBuffalo]

OK, now OP have sex with said girls on the sheet set.

I'm older, I had Star Wars sheets.

 

[B.K.]

I had that set. I never used the bedspread. I only used the pillowcase. I don't know where it is, but my mom never throws anything away. I'm sure it's around here somewhere.

Did anyone else have the Transformer sheets?

 

[blame space]

I had MLB sheets and comforter.. all the team logos c. '95

 

[BocoDragon]

No.. But I still have a TMNT beach towel circa 1989!

 

[Maddocks]

yup I still have it.

 

[ajf009]

I wish

 

[The Jason]

I still have the TMNT sheet, its really faded but I still love it.

 

[True Underdog]

I had MLB sheets and comforter.. all the team logos c. '95

I had NFL, roughly the same year.

 

[Data West]

I had this.

 

[Bolt Vanderhuge]

Got those in a memento chest in the shed.

I also had a sick Batman/Joker blanket (Neal Adams art-style) but that's long gone.

 

[jooey]

I figured that shit would disintegrate after the 10-year mark.

 

[G-Fex]

What's wrong with their faces?

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I have a pokemon blanket.

 

[wondermega]

I sleep in this, now

 

[ReiGun]

Didn't have the bedspread, but I had the curtains until I was like 14. I mean, hanging up over my windows. I didn't really give enough of a shit to have them changed sooner even though I was aware I had long since outgrown them (wasn't like anyone was coming in my room but me). My mom ended up changing them randomly one day. Still have the plain blue ones she replaced them with hanging up. No idea what we did with the TMNT curtains.

 

[plainr_]

LOL. Yes, I did have those TMNT blanket and pillowcases.

 

[Goldrush]

You just gave me a full nostalgia blast. With a bit of digging, I can pull out the pillowcase.

 

[DarthWoo]

I had that set. I never used the bedspread. I only used the pillowcase. I don't know where it is, but my mom never throws anything away. I'm sure it's around here somewhere.

Did anyone else have the Transformer sheets?

Wow, I had those exact ones too.

 

[ianswoody]

I had an Alf sleeping bag.

 

[way more]

I had the Kilban Cat.

 

[Sean]

I had that exact same set, along with matching curtains.

They must've made a killing off selling TMNT merchandise during the height of its popularity.

 

[DoomGyver]

Not only that, I had the sleeping bag. swagger

 

[entremet]

I had it. Memories.

 

[blame space]

 

[Professor Beef]

Not only that, I had the sleeping bag. swagger

There was a sleeping bag!?

 

[Blackace]

I had the Kilban Cat.

My friend had so many of those shirts..

 

[DGRE]

I had a He-man blanket that looked something like this:

 

[Blackace]

That is horrifying

 

[bengraven]

Still have them. lol

Last I checked my mom was using the sheets for her dogs to sleep on, but the comforter is still in her closet somewhere.

Still have the bedspread, but it's hanging over my window after my cats tore up my blinds.

Yep, I used it to cover my windows because the sun always woke directly in my face. Only way I could sleep past 730am.



So weird that so many of us had the same sheets. Must have been that this was the only available TMNT bedding for a long time.

 

[Stabby McSter]

No.. But I still have a TMNT beach towel circa 1989!

Oh shit, so do I. I used to use mine in high school during swim meets.

yes

I had this.

and yes.

 

[Data West]

Not the same thing, but I also had all the Power Rangers soaps

 

[DonMigs85]

I still have Thomas the Tank Engine and Snoopy bedding.

 

[blame space]

I distinctly remember using Slimer toothpaste. it was grape favored for whatever reason. man, they really capitalized on my generation, huh.

 

[The Grim Heaper]

I have a pokemon blanket.

Hey, I had that too! It's down in the basement... somewhere. It was all ripped up from years of use, though.

 

[RobotHaus]

I had MLB sheets and comforter.. all the team logos c. '95

I have these somewhere in my garage.

 

[Zekes!]

I don't have any photos but when I was a kid I had TMNT bedding and huge ass TMNT stickers all over my wall

 

[Big-E]

I had this.

Ya I had the Return of the Jedi ones too. I also had a baseball quilt that George had in Seinfeld.

 

[8BitsAtATime]

I had Goosebumps stuff

 

[Why would you do that?]

I don't know if I had them or not. They look very, very familiar, and my older brother was a bit of a Turtles fan, so maybe...

I do, however, have these:

The sheets and the pillowcase, not the comforter.

I forgot all about the comforter. It was really awesome, but I ruined it by pulling the threads.

 

[Neodiablo22]

Had it. Want it again.

 

[lunarworks]

IKEA bedding all the way.

 

[digita1alchemy]

I had that exact TMNT set. No idea what happened to it. Might still be in a box somewhere at my parents house.

 

[bengraven]

Had it. Want it again.

Hopefully not to sleep on. Maybe it was the detergent my mom used, but after so many years the ones I had were really harsh and itchy, as if made of straw or as if heavily starched over and over again.

 

[Tobor]

I had this.

Jesus, that brings back memories.

I had all the Burger King glasses too.
