Mascot for the Tortoise Shell Society
Touche Turtle was a little turtle with a big heart. His goal was to rid the world of evil deeds. When there was trouble brewing you would hear "Touche Away!" and he would fly to the recuse. He was accompanied by his faithfull compaign Dum Dum, a loyal dog.
They would battle dragons, evil knights and occaional robots. Since 1960 their monsters have become more threating.
In the orginal cartoon series Bill Thompson provided the voice for Touche (who was also the voice for MGM's Droopy) The voice of Dum Dum was done by Alan Reed who also did the voice for Fred Flintstone.
