Who is your favorite villain in all of TMNT and what do you think that says about you? Is there a bit of you in there? certain traits you identify with? or is it just cause they're 'cool'.

Shredder, I guess. I like Krang, FW's Rat King, Bishop, Bebop and Rocksteady as well.
Don't think Shredder being my favorite says anything about me. I like him in every incarnation and he can be quite different in some. I can tell you I don't plan on taking over the world or the city with a ninja clan. I think a lot about the Turtles, though. And Shredder obsesses over them. So maybe I have that in common with him...

Old Hob. I love the evolution of his character from villain to antihero. To me, he's a feline Jason Todd now... willing to kill to protect those he loves from those who would hurt them.

My other favorite would be Oroku Pimiko, who evolves from villain to (tentative) ally. She wishes to avenge her father, but upon realizing he was an evil man, makes peace with her former enemies.
Not really able to read into what these two say about me... all I know is that I can at least definitely state that Pimiko's choice of attire does not reflect on my personality. I have no desire to wear a revealing-yet-spiky S&M suit and a big-ass ponytail. :tlol:

Shredder and/or Krang. OT, mostly. I loved their sharp, caustic banter, and how they were sort of in a permanent "frienemy" relationship. I just liked their dynamic so much. I also liked Shredder's backstory and how ambitious, cunning, and cruel he can be- not sure what that says about me, but I HAVE come up with some creative "punishments" over the years for people who annoyed me- just never implemented any of them. YET....

Like MarvelDuckie, I also have a fondness for the old married couple she mentioned above. I also like OT Bebop and Rocksteady. Their stupidity is entertaining to no end.
I like dysfunctional villains.

My favorite villain is Nick's Tiger Claw, but, that's mostly because I really love tigers and he looks awesome.

Shredder, no one else comes close! If anything I'd pick Shredder over the turtles anytime. I liked the turtles but I've always liked the villains more bwhahaaha

I have always liked the villains, especially if they look menacing, and have really cool looking clothing. So when I first saw the original TMNT cartoons as a kid, I thought that the Shredder was one of my favourite villains. When the 2k3 series came, he became THE favourite villain of all time, due to his coolness. That shredder was in my opinion a major improvement over the old one, thats why I do not like the newest one that much. I do find the recent movie shredder to be a bit cool, but he looks a bit too "bling" in order to be "super-cool"

OT Shredder. I liked his sense of humour, insults and one-liners. I also liked the relationship he had with Krang. I see a bit of myself in him. He never gave up and was always coming up with new plans to defeat the Turtles. I spent nearly a year coming up with good one-liners to say and strategies to get my own back on a frenemy who annoyed me every now and then when I was younger. Looking back, I actually did say a lot of good one-liners to him and was a constant thorn in his side most of the time. I was never obsessed with him like the way Shredder was obsessed with the Turtles, though.

Never had a favorite villain, though I suppose that says something as well.
If I had to choose I'd prob pick Karai due to being a strong female character, though not really anything in common there beyond gender.

Well, I'm going to go with the OT technodrome crew. I loved Shredder, Krang, Bebop, and Rocksteady back in the day and I still love them. But I have no idea what that says about me. Still a kid at heart, maybe? Although Tiger Claw, 2k3 Shredders and 2012 Shredder tie. Eeeyeah, I have no idea what that says about me.

I'll say OT Krang. While Shredder had his serious moments in the first couple seasons, it was Krang that really made sure that the villains were for real, and was basically the dark counterpart of Donatello if Shredder was the dark counterpart of Leonardo (and Splinter FTM). He would routinely make sure Shredder was doing the job that he had instructed, yet Krang himself had the potential to be nasty on his own, especially on the rare occassions his android body was inflated. It also sets the tone for the Dimension X storylines. But Krang still respected many of Shredder's comands, including the transformation of Baxter Stockman, and still had his own humorous moments while not being overly a goofball like Shredder. It also has a good legacy thanks to the nice take that Nick has done for The Kraang, being the all-out brainiacs. He will always make sure that there's no reason for slacking, the world is more important to conquer than just a select few people, and lots of geeky equipment always makes me stay on my toes, and I feel he has aged the best out of all the Fred Wolf villains.

Baxter Stockman, because I'm a nerd with issues.

Rocksteady and Bebop have always been my favorites, which I guess means I have a soft spot for simple-minded individuals.

Slash - Simply because he was my favorite TMNT toy growing up. I loved the fact there was an evil turtle. I was so sad when the SotO came out, and Slash was "replaced" with Tokka. Even as a kid I understood it was so that a new toy could be made and sold, but still, I wished it would have been Slash.

Nah. It was gonna be Bebop & Rocksteady but Eastman & Laird were vehemently against their inclusion & as such were asked by the staff to create their own duo of mutant enemies, at which point Eastman came up with Tokka & Rahzar.
