How did Mona Lisa become so popular?

This just something I've been wondering for awhile. So, Mona Lisa. One of the many mutant characters that appeared in the OT. Well known by most fans for being a love interest for Raphael in "Raphael Meets His Match". Yet only appeared in one episode, and was never heard from again. Fast forward years later, and she's a popular character in fan art. I never really understood why, but it looked like something about her struck a cord in fans, and now she has her own fanbase. In fact rumors been flying that she might actually make an appearance in the 2012 (I'm taking this with a grain of salt, but I talked to someone online who claims she has an uncle who works at Nickelodeon who said she would appear in season 2. Even supposedly gave a description of what she looks like.)

What I'd like to ask our fellow fans who've been with TMNT for years and grew up alongside the OT, what is about Mona Lisa that struck a cord with fans? What was so special about her that she is still remembered to this day?
