Nope, that's new. Many wondered if it meant "5th Turtle" others wondered why it wasn't 6 in reference to Channel 6.

EDIT: That was me, gobo... I knew I was right.

So much epic stuff! Wahoo!

I think Splinter and April both look WAY better than their action figures! Splinter is like a skyscraper. He towers over the turtles! But that doesn't really bother me at all honestly. I thought it was awesome that April's weapon is a laptop.

Shredder looks like a threatening version of OT Shredder. Not to mention that I think it is cool that he actually loves his daughter. It shows that even a evil dude trying to take over the world has a human side! Can't wait to see that come into play!

I love all the Turtles profiles! I really like the amount of individuality that Nick has created for them. I am really hyped up for this!

April looks like Gwen Tennyson, and why does Splinter look like he has human hands?

Thank you! I thought her design looked familiar, somehow. Of course, I don't care for Ben 10, but what you can do? Now, I can sleep.

Nice to know that I was the only one to note the Gatchaman reference. Yay.

Shredder still looks over the top with his humongous spikes but looks much better and much more menacing. Splinter while still looking weird also looks much better here. Now April sadly looks much worse, I hate her face.

I think the problem with April's face is if you ignore the hair...her face seems more like a boy's face than a girl's face.

I like that the "tails" on Mikey's mask are shorter than the others. It helps make him look "younger" than his brothers, which was probably the intent.

2k3 Karai? Probably. This excites me, because now if they actually do bring in Karai, she can be the strong character she was in Mirage.

The Kraang are visually based upon the Utroms but that's it. They're basically your generic "invade Earth" evil aliens.

Lmao, that's what I'm saying. It's just so random that even months later I'm left speechless on the matter.

Mike late in the Vol. 4 run is all I can think of...

Same here, it really shows that Nick is trying to convey each turtles unique personality through their designs. I like that sense of individuality, you know?

Splinter kinda looks like a monk... Brother Splinter? *lol*

So in this version Splinter is a Jedi Master and April is his padowan?
