1.) In shredder's mom, Shredder's mother grabs him by the side of his helmet. For some odd reason, he is in pain as if she is pulling his ear.

2.) In the "Beware of the Lotus Blossuem" episode, Shredder sneezes even though the feather is touching the outside of his "metal mouth".

3.) One episode, he is wearing headphones with the helmet.

Not really, but I always found it frustrating that they treated his face-plate as if it was fabric in S2.

I wish they showed Shredder sleeping in bed with his helmet on, but sadly I don't think that ever happened.

Just watched this one. He doesn't start saying "ow" until they get off-screen. For all we know, mommy coulda been administering a spanking in private. :P

Super-villains are weird.

the animators certainly did I noticed. In the episode where robot versions of Bebop and Rocksteady are made to put a brain busting thing on Channel 6 news, Shredder gets this necklace that was protecting him from the effects is nocked off and he starts mimiacking a monkey.

His face plate was made to look vaguely like a monkey face :lol:

I always thought that shredder's mask was heavily connected to his head, though steel/aluminum can be pretty tough metals that can penetrate skin pretty hard when pushed against it. I'm not surprised that Shredder is wearing headphones with his helmet on since this is the Technodrome and it can adjust helmets to absorb sound. I never considered Shredder to believe his mask is his real face, just self-protection.
