Will the Foot Elite/Shredder Elite make an appearance?

At this point, I'm tired of old bland Foot Ninjas. If they introduce the Foot Elite in the new series, fighting them off will be much more of a threat. Sure they appeared in Out of the Shadows (which was inspired by the 2012 cartoon), but why not in the actual series? It looks the end of Shredder is coming near, so that might not happen.

The Foot Elite should be humans, so maybe if Shredder brings them from Japan

Yeah, sure.

It'd be harder for them to dispose of...I guess that would be the point, though. Foot "bots" were made to be hacked and stabbed and thrown and "killed". Nick won't allow that to happen to human Foot soldiers. I kind of view the Foot as disposable NPC characters that are simply there to keep the turtles busy and so the turtles can land some lethal hits without upsetting parents because they killed something. The real players are Shredder's mutated henchmen.

I don't see them making an appearance. I've been wrong before though.

I dunno, maybe in Tales Of The Yokai. To bring them in to the series at this stage in the game would seem pointless, were it modern times. Like, why not send those dudes after the turtles from the get-go instead of one incompetent monster/robot after the next, you know? "Oh, I also have secret weapon #15! These guys, who I forgot I had at my disposal despite them being my most important fighters!"

I do looove the Foot Elite, & their designs, but for that reason I kinda hope they don't show up.

Well, they might be enhanced robots or mutants created by Stockman-fly. If Shredder was like "These useless robots aren't helping blah blah", then it might be a reason to include them.

I hope so! They are pretty awesome.

Whether they will or not though is a different thing.

Like Powder said, what would be the freaking point by now?
