Places you'd like to have seen in the old toon

[Icebot]

Throughout the series, the turtles have visited many good places on earth: Florida, Niagra Falls, Mount Rushmore, the Arctic, Europe, they even found the lost city of Atlantis.

I would have liked to see them visit California, Louisiana, Japan in the present, Washington DC and Antarctica.

What do you think?

I like you would have wanted to see a trip to Hollywood and have one episode in Washington,D.C. Going to Japan to explore the roots of the Foot Clan and have it connected maybe to a mystery that Koji and his grandfather need the TMNT's help with. Also, Las Vegas would have interesting. The Technodrome needs power so it attempts to suck Las Vegas try of all of its electrical power.

When the Technodrome was in the artic was it the North Pole or the South Pole/Antartica?

Definitely more of Japan, especially the actual locations where the ninja lived in the past, including Iga-Ueno in the Mie Prefecture and Koga, as well as other places in the country featured in actual ninja history.

Hollywood, Japan, the moon, AND THE MUTHAFUDDIN' BERMUDA TRIANGLE!

Well, I'd like to see them in the new toon to redeem ourselves! But Europe was fun enough and I don't get why some dislike those episodes; it was quite a concept for its time as well. How about India, Australia, or the Galapogos islands where numerous rare turtle species live? Even NYC's JFK airport could have been used involving Shredder/the Turtle Blimp, as it appears in the first NES game.

Also, do you notice that the accuracy of NYC seems to get worse and worse with each season (in another related thread?) The city as it appears in Red Sky might as well be something like Salt Lake City, Portland, or Pittsburgh with all those hills and mountains surrounding the city!

I can't give you a quote from anyone who worked on the show, but I know that that was done intentionally. You might notice they hardly ever even refer to it as New York. It was gradually shifted to a more Anywhere USA kinda thing so that it could appeal to people on a broader scale.

They did enough globe trotting in the Archie series to make up for it.

Seriously they barely stayed in New York at all in Archie!

[Luzmagica]

...I can well imagine any destination ....: Turtles hide in a boat harbor for any reason ....and they can appear anywhere in the world!

Rapa Nui (Easter Island/ Isla de Pascua), Egyptian pyramids, Big Chinese Wall...New Wonder of the World places....A famous haunted house.... :tlol:
And Why not ...Canary Islands! ;)

North Pole

More Turtles out west, riding horses and doing cowboy stuff would've been pretty cool. I don't think we got that very much in any medium.

With time travel. The American West today is not like the 19th century Indian Wars.

Write a fanfic about it. :)

When I was young and didn't completely understand the show, I made a story of Shredder trying to take over California simply for the warmer climate and Bebop and Roclsteady's desire for "bodacious babes". IIRC the Technodrome surfaced there and wound up in the sea. Imagine my surprise when that really happened a few years later!!

I don't know about the warmer weather but starting on that end of the country will avoid the Ninja Turtles a little longer.

Also, that is pretty cool irony! :tlol:

Was it a comic?

[Sage Ninja]

the deep south battling some KKK members...didn't the archie comics have this?

[oldmanwinters]

New Jersey.

Just for the sake of hearing some very sarcastic Raphael jokes.

Yeah, and Rahpahel's banadana is red like the New Jersey Devils ice hockey team logo. :)

Nope. I do a lot of voices so I made it into an audio tape when I was a kid. It's long gone now.

"Soon I will be able to control ALL of California!!"

Oh, and there was inexplicable knockout gas waiting for April and the Turtles. All that did was delay them, no trap or nothing.

[ToTheNines]

Oh yeah... The North Pole. One of the most gimmicky shows of all time didn't even have a Christmas episode :(

The Technodrome spent season 5 in the Arctic and season 6-7 on the bottom of the Arctic Ocean.

The arctic is a vast region, they were probably hundreds if not thousands of miles from the pole.

I wish they had actually visited/stayed in Dimension X for a while.

Watch episodes like "Shredder's Mom", "Dimension X Story", "Turtle Trek" and "Divide & Conquer". Even Irma and Vernon go there "Convicts from Dimension X", and with Burne in "Foot Soldiers Are Revolting".

It's a shame they didn't visit present Japan.
