Punk Frogs cartoon

*Original TMNT Cartoon Fan* · 09-22-2008, 01:28 PM

What if the Punk Frogs were given an own cartoon? They're not my favourites, but I just wonder what you would say out there.

*Coola Yagami* · 09-22-2008, 02:04 PM

They did. It was called Battletoads and only lasted one episode.

Seriously, I dunno... the Frogs were really wimpy in the old show, I mean they fought even less than the turtles did.

Battletoads was also a video game.

Um... yeah. Coola was just joking with that (connection between them).

*PizzaPower* · 09-22-2008, 06:19 PM

Battletoads where awesome. I love the battletoads and double dragon crossover.

I don't think the frogs would have been a very interesting cartoon.

The Mutanimals on the other hand would have been cool, but apparently they didn't even last very long as a comic.

*shuriken* · 09-22-2008, 08:09 PM

That would be a worse idea than the the next mutation.

*Cipher* · 09-22-2008, 11:13 PM

To this day I still can't tell them apart, and have no desire to learn their destinctions.

Like noted, Coola was just fooling about the connection between them. Sure they're a group of frogs, but it's a different thing.

Sadly, the Mutanimals members didn't was a team in the 1987 cartoon (they could have been without Leatherhead, he was cool as a bad guy in the 1987 cartoon).

Well, like noted the other time this was brought up. There were apparently plans to do a Mutanimals cartoon, but it ended up cut-short and wasn't done.

Would it be Archie based?

Pretty much (there is a little info about it on the TMNT Wikipedia page). Basically would have the Mutanimals dealing with Maligna (like in the comic's mini-series), as well as some new villains.

That sounded cool.

Didn't get back in time (before you replied), but added a link to the information in my previous post.

But if it really was based on the 1987 cartoon, how would they tackle Leatherhead, Ray Fillet, Wingnut, Screwloose and being bad guys. This http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...ers#Ray_Fillet says Ray Fillet in the 1987 cartoon should be a good guy.

Well, there are similar things throughout TMNT's various medias.

Like you note with those characters being villains in the classic cartoon. While they're heroes in the comics and toyline.

Just different presentations of a character.

I know that, but I mean if it would be the same TMNT universe (1987 cartoon + Mutanimals cartoon).

Were there not battletoad toys?
