baxter stockman old vs. new
 
which baxter is the best?

RaphaelTMNT23 01-10-2003 11:24 PM

The new one is waaayyyy better. I hated the old Baxter. This one is the scientist of the new age...smart and suave. I can't wait to see how cool this new series is. I hope it surpasses the other ones greatness, which is no easy task ladies and gentlemen

Dontebell 01-10-2003 11:25 PM

RaphaelTMNT23 01-10-2003 11:27 PM

there should have been an option right when you created it...I don't know how to do it now...but everytime you post a topic...there is a poll section at the bottom...forgive me...I am addicted to elipses

Dontebell 01-10-2003 11:29 PM

R-iZZy 01-10-2003 11:48 PM

New one of course, After all he is based on his true counterpart!

Dontebell 01-11-2003 07:59 AM

New Baxter! He really does look like a mad scientist, not some dorky white guy.

tmntpower2003 01-11-2003 10:53 AM

New baxter cause you can tell from his pic that he is cruel and calculating

HorseTechie 01-11-2003 12:23 PM

Er... *is confused*

Are you talking about the first cartoon Baxter the Fly versus the Miage baxtor in the new cartoon...? Or the new Baxter in the new cartoon versus the old Baxter from the Mirage comics?

Eaither way.. the new one does sound savvy wicked!

avervisal 01-14-2003 05:01 PM

Where can we see pictures of this "new" baxter stockman that you're talking about?

tmntpower2003 01-14-2003 05:04 PM

ninjaturtles.com at the top of the page it says new toon previews and click on it youll find em

Aztec General 01-14-2003 05:08 PM

Well technically the "new Baxter" is the old Baxter from the Mirage comics. So I guess the old cartoon Baxter was the "middle Baxter". Either way the New/Mirage Baxter is definetely the way to go.

PWDESAI 01-14-2003 05:17 PM

i like hte old one he had this annoyance to him which made him BAD ASS

Karpo_007 01-14-2003 05:20 PM

I hope that by old one you mean the Mirgae one... The first cartoon one had nothing cool in him...

Anarchistguy 01-14-2003 05:23 PM

The Psycho black Baxter is The real thing! What do you see in a whimpy
white guy turning into a fly?? And I'm pretty sure PWDESAI means the original toon Baxter 'cause I don't see anything annoying in the Mirage one.

Karpo_007 01-14-2003 05:25 PM

Yeah the old baxter was the only good one... But right now we onlu know he looks like the original, But I belive that it will be the same character.

Anarchistguy 01-14-2003 05:27 PM

I'm pretty confident about that :)

Well, obviously somebody did...it did start as a parody of THE FLY (movie) after all :roll: :roll: :roll:

Though imagine what it would've been like if the whole series was based off Mirage in the beginning...it might've lasted longer.

Anarchistguy 01-14-2003 05:42 PM

Some people wouldn't have lost interest in the TMNT.

Raphael-sama 01-14-2003 06:15 PM

Some people might have too.

Me? I'm sorry, but I have to go with Mr. Fly. He was EASILY one of the best characters in the cartoon, and considering how many characters there were, that's saying something.

Anarchistguy 01-14-2003 06:21 PM

If the first cartoon was entirely based on Mirage, there wouldn't be any
"Mr. Fly"

Jephael 01-14-2003 06:25 PM

Are you kidding? Baxter Fly was the greatest idea ever! I'm gonna miss him buzzing around like a lunatic.

Mondo_Gecko 01-14-2003 07:05 PM

Baxter Stockman the FLY ROCKED and will always be the only true Baxter for me Go Fly Baxter!!!!

tmntpower2003 01-14-2003 07:45 PM

thats b/c you seem like your only a fan of the kiddie cartoon :P

Raphael-sama 01-14-2003 07:56 PM

Most, if not all of us, grew up on said "Kiddy cartoon", and there's more than a few of us who haven't cast the thing aside like some piece of dung. It did it's job and it got us all here.

And really, when I say the Fly, I have nothing to compare it to. I've never read the Mirage books beside Issue #1, and we don't know how he'll be on the cartoon. I pick what I know. But even then, a black mad scientist doesn't match the coolness of a freaky giant fly with guns and a golf shirt.
Those sorts of things stay with you.

I grew up on the TMNT cartoon in the late 80's, but was always more a fan of the darker REAL TMNT in comic form or the first film. The archie comics kiddyfying of the TMNT was just really bad.

And thank goodness Baxter has been returned to his old glory. Why do people like the old cartoon Baxter? That cartoon made all the black characters white(Baxter, Bebop, etc) Its like you couldnt show black folks as main characters on tv? sheesh.

Karpo_007 01-15-2003 12:39 AM

I grew up with the cartoon too, But I have over grown it.... And it is not just that. It has bad animatiom, no fight scenes, and worst of all mostly really badly written stories. I mean didn't the writers have any imagination?

Well That's just how most of the show is like. 1, 8,9,10 season are actually entertaining, they have fight scenes, good animation and even good plot most of the time. Well The rest of the cartoon was still good for kiddies too, it doesn't matter to them even if the writers use same plots all the time. I know it didn't matter me when I was a kid...

Oh Im in total agreement. I got pretty over the animated cartoon after 1990. Though I really dig the first episode, very epic for a first airing.
Im really curious about the new one...so Im optimistic. But yeah, the whole old cartoon, the archie comics, even a lot of the toys...ack. I mean did we need fifty billion TMNT parody lines? Nope.
