Comparison Pics of all 4 Turtles from all 3 movies. LOOK
 

I made this to compare they way the turtles look in each film by viewing the pics. It goes in order starting from the left movie I, Movie II and then Movie III. Click on the pic to enlarge. Share your thoughts on your favorite look. Thanks

The movie one costumes still look the best, far more realistic.

Agreed. Movie 1 FTW.

The first movie has the best costmes.Why did they go through the changes? Seems like they got worse and worse.

Your right they did get worse. Jim Henson's creature shop did the costumes for the first 2 films. There isnt a reason I can think of as why they went with a more happy cartooney look for the second film but a company called All Effects did the costumes in 3 and they were terrible as you can see from the pics. Part 1 was far superior to the other 2 movies but part 2 had alot better costumes then 3.

Man, Don is one UGLY mofo. In all three movies.

I liked Mikey and Leo's costumes best in the first movie, but Raph and Donnie's costumes from the second.

TMNT three. The costumes were horrible, but I really liked the story that came with it, so I don't hate on it as severe as some people like to.;) (The reason why I liked TMNT three, is because I love horses, and this movie incorporated the Turtles on horseback, and I thought that was cool)

Thats funny, I am the exact opposite of you. I like Raph and Don's look the best in part 1. I like the wider cheeks and the smaller eyes of Raph and Don. Raph looks the best of all though.

We're all different. World would be boring if we all thought the same way and had the same opinions.

What I liked about the 2nd costumes, especially Donnie's, is the wide range of facial expressions. Like when he was surfing on the chair, and a Foot stuck a Bo out in the path of the chair, and he knew what was gonna happen. Funny. I also thought his expression when Mikey dropped the pizza in the potion he was making was cute too. I just think it was the facial expressions for me, at least Raph's and Don's.

I agree on the facial expressions, they were alot better due to the more advanced animatronics in part 2. They had alot wider range of expressions. I think I just really liked the paint job and realistic look in the first movie but I still really like the second movie costumes as well. Part 3 makes me sick.

You should add in the turtles from the new movie

Well there is no need to compare them because they are computer animation not live action. If there was 3 animated TMNT movies then it would be a good idea to compare the 3 but there isnt. Sorry

What about the live action crap-fest that is NT:TNM??

I prefer their looks in Secret of the Ooze over the first film, but they're all pretty damn neat. They may look more realistic in TMNT but they're more visually striking in the sequel, and the animatronics were vastly improved, with better lip-synching and much more facial expression.

Man, Raph sure does look goofy in that shot from TMNT III. :lol:

I thought about it but its not worth it, Not only do they look terrible they dont even resemble the movie turtles in any way. In fact part III movie looks better then TMNT NM.

Too true...too true...:lol:

it would have still been a fun comparison.

Jeez, Don's head in the first movie was huge. Much broader than the other three.

Jeez put them all together...the first look real, the second look fake and the 3rd....AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! ! They look so freaking STONED!:lol::lol::lol::lol:

Don did have some big cheeks in the first film but mostly when he was smiling which he is in the pic above. One feature I will point out that I loved in the part 1 turtles asside from the paint jobs is the eyes. I think they look alot realer and less cartooney because they arnt as big and dont show as much white in them.
