I would think that Mikey would make a better Son Goku (or Monkey as he was called in Journey to the West), simply due to his personality.

Those images that you shared are really interesting. Thanks for sharing, Indigo.

The image with them watching the flat screen is amusing.

Added links to bigger ones. I think on the flat screen they're playing one of their own video games.

& yeah it seems they're playing the GBA TMNT (2007) game, interestingly! Cute pieces of art, though odd.

Well, I was trying not to think it.



Settle down, Megan, it's not that exciting.

I dunno what else it could possibly be, it's insanely phallic + in the appropriate location.

& on closer inspection I realize that's not the TMNT GBA game but rather one of the Nickelodeon mobile ones.

HA! These are great. Thanks for posting! I'm loving the green fan in front of April. What a strange thing to add in.

Yeah, they've been making CGI explosion-fests locally since the late 90s. It's part of the reason I lost interest in Hong Kong action movies - they were getting too ridiculous, and that's saying something.

Those are great. I had a series of comics about the Journey to the West legend when I was a teenager that were illustrated in that style. They were designed to be a teaching aid, as the dialog was in both English and Mandarin. Didn't work - I can't speak Mandarin beyond a few canned phrases, and I sure as hell can't write any.

Wow, well done. I kinda love that one, Turtles making pizza with their enemies. Had not noticed those lamps in the small one. Love how random these are.

Spoke to Stan Sakai. He had no idea Usagi was in any of this stuff.

Uh-oh.

(did they seriously)

(oh man)

I have no doubt the artist threw it in there as a cute little fan easter egg, and that's cute, I can appreciate that... but someone should have noticed that before they approved it. Viacom's a big corporation, they need to do their work there. It puts Stan in a weird legal position either way -- if someone uses your property without your approval, you're in the position that you have to defend your copyright.

Awesome right? Could cost Stan some serious money. Wonderful.

Yeah, had it just been an anthro bunny, sure. It's a Easter egg, but that looks without a doubt like Usagi, ear top-knot and all.

Now I feel a little bad for pointing it out, I doubt it was done with any bad intention and they just may not have known who owns him, buuuuuut good point and his creator deserves to know.

That's that "ignorance" thing you were talking about. It's expensive to defend a copyright.
