On a serious note, I'm very pleased with Mona's design. They've proven themselves to handle female mutant designs well. They didn't give hair, breasts or long lashes to Karai either. There are subtle details in the design that makes someone think that the mutant's female rather than male. When the design was first seen on the book cover, people already suspected that it would be a female mutant/alien. I'm glad they've changed her from her original appearance in the original cartoon.

I've been impressed with all of these character reveals. I've been waiting in anticipation for the triceratons and Fugitoid. I didn't really enjoy the arc that much in the 2003 version but for some reason I'm really looking forward to their appearance on the show. I don't remember Lorg Dregg from the original cartoon but his design looks really impressive and promising. I'm really excited for season 4 to start. Like Cubed, I wish that we got an image of Renet that wasn't just concept art. We've been waiting for Turtles in Time for so long now.

I know what you mean about the "Feminine touches" most animators like to use. I guess the ponytail never bothered me as a kid because...well, I was a product of the 80s. Telling males and females apart was like apples and oranges: It was pretty obvious. (Though I still think the Misfits from Jem looked like drag queens). Not only did they make it obvious she was female, they still managed to make her look pretty without giving her the "hot girl" treatment. They made her build a bit slimmer and gave her a cute profile so she still looks like something that could scare humans in this universe, but still very appealing. I can't wait to see her in action.

Though, I must confess...I was sort of hoping to see the pink scarf again. I thought it was cute and would've been a nice callback to the 80s. But having her in the show again would still be a nice callback.

Hey, if she is a minor character, do you think she'll be added to the intro? Think about it: They could put her in that last shot where we see the Turtles flip and run past Casey and she could appear on top of the building right above Casey. There'd be a quick shot of her silhouette and sword, looking up a the roof the Turtles make their final appearance on. Just a thought...
