[Jester]

I think there were tanks in the reboot...can't remember.

To add to the "This previous Turtle person said..." here's Rob Paulsen's response to a person asking via Facebook:

If it sucks, it'll go away fast. If it's great, there'll be a couple more. My focus currently is doing the best job I can on Nick's TMNT which I'm sure will have its detractors too. That's showbiz.
