how do u picture your fave turtle?
 

I'm just asking everybody how do you really picture you favorite turtle? Do you picture him just like in the Mirage comics, the Image ones, the new cartoon, one of the movies, etc.? Or do you picture them as being like a character in a different movie or show? Or is it all together different?

Here's an example of mine.

My favorite turtle is Raphael, and believe it or not I've always pictured raph as being a lot like John Rambo. That's right, i'm sure it sounds nuts but here's my reasons on why I picture Raph as being like rambo.

1. Both wear famed bandannas
2. Both names start with R and A
3. Both taught how to fight and are really good at it
4. Both extremely tough and strong
5. Have father figures that, although not related by blood, they still love and respect very much (for Raph it's splinter, for rambo it's colonel trautman)
6. Both have fought wars (Raph-City at War, Rambo-Vietnam War)
7. Both carry small, sharp weapons with them and seems as though they are part of them (Raph's sais and Rambo's knife)
8. Both have good hearts under tough exteriors that are brought out by only a few people and are rarely seen (Raph-Mikey, Shadow, and Splinter & for Rambo-Trautman, woman he fell in love in Rambo 2)
9. Both hate the fact that they fight to help and save people's lives, but are hated by their country
10. I believe both characters' true wishes are to be excepted and embraced by the public for who they are instead of being shunned (Raph for being a turtle, Rambo for being a Vietnam vet)
11. I think both are damn good hunters
12. Returning baddies (raph-foot clan, rambo-the russians)
13. Both are willing to kill when needed to.
I can just see and imagine Raph hunting the foot clan one by one just like rambo did with the cops in First Blood or the Vietnamese/Russians in Part 2. I think that would be kinda cool to see.
14. Both are pretty stubborn (as in they really never give up fighting or trying to stay alive)
I've always wanted to write a fan fic by making Raph into a sort of Rambo character, replacing the russians with the foot clan among other things. But that's how I have always pictured Raph as a sort of Rambo-type of character. What's your favorite character, and how do you picture him?

of course donnie's my favorite and i usually picture mirage don, although my favorite donatello design is those archie future ones (the ones in my avatar)

My favorite is Mikey, and I picture him as a turtle.

I picture all of them the way the looked on the Coming Out of Their Shells Tour...

Archie Raph, Future version, but with both eyes

yous guys might not be believen' it but, dis here gatorman be a' picturen' his favorite turtle boy, Raphael, I always liked the Mirage version, ya' know. (Volume One not Volume Two)

I always thought that Leo in the first movie was really close to how I pictured him.

ChibiKasai loves her Archie Comics Leo. :P <nod, nod>

But, to note, I have yet to read *any* of Mirage, so I could change my mind in the future.

Peace!

I used to picture Raphael as his movie 1 counterpart, but recently, I've grown really, really, attached to the new cartoon version.

Yeah me too

They are all Black&white in my head... :lol:

My fav is Raph I must go with the Archie him

I picture Mikey as the Old cartoon version.

Mikey and Raph in the first film is how'd I picture MY two favorites. :nod: Mmm-hmm. Yes, Indeedy. :nod:

My fav turtle is raph and I see him either in Mirage Studios style, Tournament Fighters style (the way he's drawn) or 2003 style. (as long as he's a badass)

Don and Mikey are my 2 favorites, with Raph and Leo in a close 2nd. I picture them as they are in the first movie. Very lifelike and realistic, with great chemistry.

I tend to picture them in their Mirage form, since those are the comics I was REALLY attached to when I was growing up and I liked Eastman and Laird's drawing style. I also tend to picture the new cartoon these days. ;) I love badass Raphael. :D

AHH! DITTO!!!! :lol: :D Yes, indeedily. (Guys, I'm gonna keep talking like this until someone smacks me!! :wink: )))
:nod: :nod:

*smacks mars with Kendo stick...

That outta take care of the right quick!

As for me, I imagine the movie Don and Mikey, and the new series Raph and Leo

Same here, although I've always loved the Dark-suit archie version of Raphael.(though Leo's my favorite)
