Licensing Show TMNT pic
 

I am at the Licensing Expo and stepped over an interesting floormat! Hope this works - tried to post it six times from my iPhone!

If someone can edit this for me so it shows the photo I'd appreciate it!

EDIT: Okay guys, I'm home! I blew the pics up and adjusted the contrast a little, if anyone wants a better look. I like the designs more and more each time I see them.

You're welcome.

Looks like the bandannas are different lengths. Neat.

Uggggg.....three freakin toes...I simply don't get it.

At least the new comics are sticking to 2 toes. I don't get why Nick is sticking to this change. Make no sense - in fact, it makes their feet and footprint appear to be completely round. The rest of the look is, alright though. Better than the first glimpse we got of them, imo.

Also, it appears that the heads are still a bit too round for my taste....though It's really hard to tell what the final look will be from a still shot.

Animation looks better

I do like the overall look of the turtles but...

Nick, if your people are reading this- GET RID OF THE THIRD TOE YOU F**KING SCHMUCKS.

^ Hahha :) Seriously though, wtf???? I don't dig the wraps or the lack of muscle tone, but I can definitely deal with them. Overall, they still look like the TMNT....but that toe is border line flabbergasting to me.

I mean - look at the new comic (in Powder's sig) - There is a perfect compromise in giving the show a "new" look that Nick wants, but still being true to every previous incarnation.

IT'S A STILL PICTURE, MORON. Jesus.

I dig the wraps, and I assume the lack of muscle tone is to streamline the animation a bit, but I agree, that third toe has me floored. I mean, what's the reason for it? It's a minor change to be sure, but one that just doesn't seem to have any proper logic behind it.

It's there to drive us mad, MAD I TELL YOU!!!

This is how I see the third toe:

Ever travel? Spend all day knowing you forgot to pack something? Ever feel relieved when you discover what it is you know you forgot because then at least you can stop wondering about it?

That's how I feel about this third toe.
I'm choosing to believe that this third toe is going to be the ONLY thing I'm going to dislike about this show, and I'm choosing to feel relieved about already knowing what that thing is.

Thanks for sharing!

Ugh, third toe. :tgrumble:

perhaps....PERHAPS - in Nicks decision to go with a "younger, more true to life teenager" angle for this show, the 3rd toe is something the guys have from birth....and as the show progresses and the guys grow up a bit and become more mature, it drops off as some sort of cycle of puberty?!?!?









...........perhaps? Ok - I admit it. I'm desperate for a logical explanation of this damned 3rd toe and willing to accept just about ANY explanation that results in the elimination of it. Is there some sort of # we can call to demand they fix this? :) lol

Enough whining about the 3rd toe guys. I get it, it seems pointless but their feet are very round and stylized, so you can hardly tell it's there.

That is a neat touch.

Thanks Cure! The iPhone sucks for posting pics to these types of forums.

I think the models look pretty good compared to earlier pictures. The third toe is odd but the pads and bandages look better and the heads don't look as rounded as they did before.

If I see any other TMNT stuff while I'm here I'll snag photos.

Awesome, thanks Cartoonistaaron!!! I was just wondering if they had anything else at the show. Have you been by the booth # that is written on the TMNT floormat? Wonder if they have any other sneak peeks there?

I don't suppose we'll be getting any pics of the TOYS at the Licensing Show, will we? So far all I've seen are descriptions of them and from all of the positive things I've heard I'm really curious.

Hey guys,

I tried to distort the image so it was a little more straight on so we could see Donatello & Mikey a bit better.

Looks pretty neat. They look a bit like they are made out of plasticine or something - which I kinda dig. Gotta ask though, what is up with Raph and Don's eyes? Crossed much?

Pupils need to go. Third toe needs to go too.

Extra toes aside, I really like the design of the Nick Turtles.

The toes looks like the feet of teddy bears, kinda cute but kinda annoying

*looking at the picture*

*realizes it doesn't look much different than most of the preview art seen so far*

*realizes that this is definitely the direction Nick is gonna go with the show*

*thinks "It's different... but it's all good*

Hey guys, the Nick booth is basically empty except for SpongeBob related stuff. I'll keep my eyes peeled tho.

Not even ICarly stuff?! Damn.

Hmm....that's odd. Is there anyone there to speak to? It's a little misleading to have that sign/mat pointing people to their booth with TMNT, only to not have one iota of said characters or their show there.

Thanks for the update regardless! We'll be eagerly anticipating anything else you can dig up :) Have any pics of the booth itself?

I just noticed that Raph's bandana is a bit more tattered than the other turtles'. That's a nice touch. :D

Goes back to NT:TNM, where they all had different styles, and Raph's was tattered. Seems he gets to keep red, and the basic bandanna...lucky guy.

The style has already grown enough on me I don't really care.

The third toe may take a little getting used to but overall I like the new look.

They look really cool the third toe i can live with would prefer two but hey it not that bad.

I guess they figure since they have 3 fingers they should have 3 toes. That's gonna take a while to get used to but those are the most "turtle-like" feet they've ever had.

I like the designs - the extra toe really isn't a huge issue to me because of the style of the feet. I'm SO looking forward to when everyone can see Splinter's picture...

Oh yeah, definately! I can't wait to see what new Splinter looks like!

Don't even care about the third toe. These look great.

I don't really care about the third toe either, its not an issue with me. The pupils look good and can stay in my opinion. The designs i hated at first but are growing on me. It's clear its targeted for kids, they do look cute after all.

I must say, I am now REALLY EXCITED!!!!!:thyper: I looked at the picture. Oh my God!!!! The turtles look awesome! :tgrin: I love the bandana strip length. I even love the eye pupils. It makes them look more realistic. The tape and the bandages, along time ago, got me a little iffy. But I love it now. The TMNT look better than TNM ones. Plus, I get what you're rationalizing. The third toe would match with the 3 fingers on each of their hands. My only problem is, how are they going to wear open-toed shoes? Also, if they (or Leonardo) ever did, how could they wear tabi socks? I can get through it if it comes on. But since the show is coming next year, I really want the third toe to be reconsidered. Is there any way I can request Nickelodeon to get rid of the third toes? If so, please let me (and most of us) know.:tsmile:

Different length bandannas is cool. I like how Raph's is a little torn up. I could care less about the number of toes, it makes sense to have the same number of toes as ya do fingers... I like the wraps too, a lot of athletes wrap up their wrists and ankles to prevent injury... I grow more excited each time I see something new...

:D

-ms

An extra toe and here the fans go whine whine Whine

Yes, the third toe is nitpicking. I just wondered why they changed it, but I guess it has to do with the three fingers. Never really thought of it like that...

You're one to talk. You realize that Utrom Shredder is the best character from 2k3, right?
