did any version of shredder call the turtles by their names?
 
from Mirage to the 2012 nick show, does anyone recall any time shredder use the turtles actual names? not insults "meddlsome mutants" or "shellbacks"?

Shredder in the Original Cartoon did on multiple occassions, although it was not common.

If I remember correctly there was at least a few times in the 1987 series that he referred to the by name. I don't think it was ever directly to the turtles though.

He did address Leonardo in Take me to Your Leader directly by name, although it was the dream sequence at the beginning so I'm not sure if that counts.

He referred to Leonardo by name in 2012 once (Can only think of once off the top of my head) but I don't think he ever addressed any of them directly by name.
Trying to remember2k3, did he when he was offering Leo an alliance? (when they first met and they didn't know who he was)

Andrew NDB 10-19-2019 04:21 PM

Yes, he specifically called Leo by name in Vol. 1, #21.

Michelangelo and Donatello
 
He did in Cowabunga Shredhead, but maybe not while talking to Michelangelo. He also did that when kidnapping Donatello in one Fleetway issue.

Yeah, pretty much every shredder has. But this right here is my personal favorite time that he did:

I'm pretty sure he also did in Old Switcheroo when pretending to be Splinter.

He called Leonardo by name a few times in "Return to New York" and "Timing is Everything." Leo was the only one he had any real acquaintance with, and ever since he declined his offer to join him, Shredder just couldn't let go of a grudge lol.

I remember him calling Donatello by his name once. "Splinter. Donatello. How did you manage to escape?" or something like that. Can't remember the exact episode but it was either in a season 3 or 4 episode iirc.

Pretty Sure Shredder uses Michelangelo's name quite a bit in Cowbunga, Shredhead!

Also in Michelangelo's birthday, when he has him "disintegrated" in the pool of goo.

"This is all thats left of the Mutant Michelangelo!"

That time Leonardo only introduced himself and told him his name. In Return to New York, Shredder was like “Astute as usual Leonardo”. He called him Leonardo later when he said it was unfortunate he didn’t join him when he had a chance and that he could have served him well.

That was Invasion of the Turtle Snatchers.

Here are some other times I remember:

“I want Donatello’s head brought before me, with or without his body” Same as it Never Was - 2K3

Leonardo is Missing - 1987 - Bebop and Rocksteady told Shredder one of the turtles was missing, they said the one in the blue mask, Shredder said that’s Leonardo.

“Hand over the brat Donatello” Four Turtles and a Baby - 1987

“As Michaelangelo would say, Chill out dudes!” Burne’s Blues - 1987

Raphael is the only turtle 1987 Shredder never mentioned by name.

It was in "New girl in town" when he confronted Karai about her having had the opportunity to disperse of Leonardo and she claimed that he escaped.

Mutant Melee: "I suppose you 'invented' victory, Donatello?"

victory_angel 10-20-2019 11:19 PM

In "Four Turtles and a Baby" during one of the moments where Shredder confronts the turtles to get "Princess Tribble" into his possession he says "Hand over the brat, Donatello!"

Oh God, I just watched that clip and it brings back my biggest issue with the 2003 series. Why did the show have to go into frickin widescreen when action was about to take place?! It's pretentious! Either do the series in 4:3 or widescreen!!! :x
