Why confusing children?
Why did the 1989 NES game have the Mirage turtles with all-red coloured bandanas? It's not like most children back in 1989 had any idea of it, so to most of them it was just a "mistake with four Raphaels".

I deduced it myself. "Oh! That must be what they all looked like originally."

I am glad Konami/Ultra resisted the urge to edit over Dooney's artwork. |
They realized the epicness of that Dooney art. There's a reason why it's been used so much. :)

I wonder what that would've looked like? |

As a kid, I just assumed it was an image montage of Raphael training with all the weapons. Didn't give it much thought.
If I remember right, there is a palette glitch in the Shredder fight where your turtle's mask turns red regardless of who you are playing as. |

He did a favor to satisfy a member's curiosity. Ease up. His edits are clean.
& if it makes anyone feel better, I'm pretty sure a 'rainbow revision' just like that existed in poster form in the late 80's. |
I was saying the original piece rules. I don't really like the edit either.

Yeah, seems inevitably that Leonardo's blue mask blends too much with that blue background. Red masks all round is still the best way to go!

I don't mind either. It's the art that makes it look great.

It's interesting to look back on how Mirage-esque a lot of the artwork for merchandise technically based on the Fred Wolf show was; even when they had multicolored bandanas. The game art, as well as the toy designs, featured the turtles putting on the beak-warped grins/glares :tmad:, rather than looking giddy and smiley :trazz:. Well, why not; those areas were where the Turtles were actually doing most of their proper fighting. It's kind of like a look at what might have been, had moral concerns not been as big of a deal during the time the Fred Wolf show itself had been made.
