O hush! I love The Next Mutation! Ive got all the episodes! I had to order them though, cuz i cant find them online anywhere. It wasnt a bad price, 25 bucks. All 26 episodeson 2 vhs tapes. Fair quality. Its a very cooky show!

The section is new TMNT discussion of the NEW show....Not next mutation....

R-iZZy 03-05-2003 02:40 PM

yeah... this should be under General TMNT Discussion, but I liked the next mutation as well. So many people have damned it, but I grew a liking to it, though I can see the MANY bad points to display. It was still a good show nonetheless.

cqb101 03-05-2003 03:26 PM

I never really watched TNM I only saw a couple of episodes but I do remember not hating......And thinking a female turtle kicked ass!!!!!!!!!!!

Duke 03-05-2003 04:28 PM

i downloaded the first 5 eps edited version off of kazaalite. The show sucks. I still hate it. The only reason i even downloaded it is because as much as i don't want it to be it is still part of TMNT history. Venus also sucked.

SlayerX 03-05-2003 04:30 PM

I agree this is the wrong section for this topic. However, I dont have the power to move it, so I wrote my reply here. Its in the right section now, so everyones happy. I dont see how people really hate it. Venus wasnt that bad. She was the fish out of water when with the other fish out of water. She belonged with the other turtles, she just didnt fit in. Thats what made her unique. And it was otherwise the same as the first cartoon. It was the cartoon brought to life. And I loved the costumes. They rocked my socks. I want one so badly. Anyone know where I could steal...i mean buy or borrow of course!

I never saw the show, bit the toys are awesome IMO. I especially like that Dragon Lord character.

Vroomkid 03-05-2003 07:27 PM

The show's a little dark, (I guess I was expecting something along the goofy lines of the old toons) and the way the Turtles fight/move is just slow and awkward (due to the bulky costume)...so I'm not a big fan either.

The toys are great! Got myself a Mikey and Raph from that line. Sadly, I should have picked up a Venus instead, especially because the chance of another Venus figure is close to 0 since she's been wiped from memory. :(

I didn't like the costumes. I can't stand the fact that some of the turtles have do rags.

What do you mean by "have do rags" again, Duke?

I agree with the costume part, the bandanas and bandages around the knees / ankles...those are just strange.

Duke 03-05-2003 10:47 PM

I was just commenting on the fact that their bandanas not only covered their eyes but also their heads (covering the top of a head like a do rag). That was the dumbest idea for a costume ever.

I feel the exact same way, especially since that sorta "dumbs down" Leo's look - he's supposed to be the leader for Pete's sake!

And the Venus being baby blue thing? We have a blue bandana already, of all the colours possibile, why baby blue?

Yea if your going to make two blues you might as well have made them all red like in the mirage comic. I like the all red look but to have two the same and the others different just doesn't work.

Vroomkid 03-05-2003 10:56 PM

Good thing that's scrap and done with.

I guess they picked baby blue so it'll attract the gals while the fan boys won't find it too feminine to buy the figure...if they choose something like pink, the fig. might not sold as well???

But then again, Donatello's purple - and purple can be a boy / girl colour too - so my bet's just that the producers made a bad decision or the director is a big fan of baby-blue.

Kali 03-06-2003 10:16 AM

Ooh, so many things to reply to...

Well, I liked the show. I loved the campiness of it all. Not my favorite universe, but I see the potential in it. I'm even working on an "ultimate" comic version the the idea.

Let's see: Loved the costumes. I liked that they all now had very different looks with their gear. But honestly, I was way too busy looking at the muscles and skin to notice the clothing much. Man, they were hot! :lol:

With baby blue, I think they were going for feminine without crossing the line of sexist. If she'd had a pink or yellow, I think it'd be a bit too girly and stereotyped for a female character, the way the yellow and pink Power Rangers are usually girls. Besides, she's not a "pink" character, she's a toned-down Leo-type, which makes the baby blue appropriate.
