Battletoads (television series)

|
Battletoads is a half-hour, traditionally animated special (aired in 1991) by DIC Entertainment, about surfers who turn into magical humanoid toads to rescue a princess.
Set in Oxnard, California, the show stars three high school student surfers. The trio is magically given special powers, but are actually turned into anthromorphic toads. They are sent on a mission to fight the Beast Police, and rescue a captured princess.
It is likely that Battletoads was an attempt to capitalize on the popularity of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
