Oh hey Mirage Splinter... didn't think I'd run into you here.

Seriously though what a great way to start off the episode giving us a glimpse of the not so loving Splinter, but instead the one that found himself mutated with four baby turtles and decided to dedicate their existence to the sole purpose of killing his most hated enemy Oroku Saki. It translated very well onto the screen and it was nice finally seeing that side of Splinter in one of the cartoons.

Dogpound has a great design, I especially like that his bones seem to he exposed on his right hand, creepy stuff right there. Plus he's no Bebop or Rocksteady, it took a friggin' explosion to finally send him packing and I think that is how he should have explained it to Shredder, shame he's such a good dog or maybe he would have been more comfortable massaging the truth a little bit.

I loved the shot of Fishface just chilling in the pool and that Xever didn't immediately get his Robot legs and Breathing apparatus, it somehow makes this world full of Mutants and Ninjas and Mutant Ninja more realistic to me. Plus having hims stuck in the pool gave us an awesome look of what Dogpound is capable of on his own.

I so want the toys of the Patrol Buggies now after seieng them in action. What will definitely clench the deal for me is if they include Turtles with their respective headgear. Seriously Leo in that Baseball helmet looked awesome as did Football Raph and Hockey Don... Though where Mike found an aviator helmet kind of boggles my mind. I like that the first vehicle that we saw Donatello build was something that it would make sense for a Teenager to build as I know I for one had build a crappy little Go-Kart by the time i was fifteen, certainly feel like it will make it more logical when he builds the Shellraiser.

Loved the message about not pysching yourself out but still knowing how to maintain caution. Though my favorite part of the episode was when my long held belief that Raphael actually enjoys Space Heroes was confirmed when he was able to quote it back to Leo when he needed it the most. Though like Raph I too am upset that Leo didn't slap himself...

In closing how about April's student ID from Roosevelt High School... I'm sure Donnie is glad that she grew into her looks. Oh yeah and the Thermal Charge great throwback to issue numero uno

It IS amazing the Shellraiser still never appeared yet, since both OT and 2K3 vehicles made their debut pretty early.

Overall, another great episode. The opening was epic, loved how Mikey was hitting everyone with water balloons, and April was spectacular. And Dogpound was great too.

Rather standard episode. Obviously they couldn't top last weeks so we just get a decent Dogpound debut here.

Not sure I like how many mutants are in this show already and we know there will be more to come. Makes me worried we won't see some.

So, are Spider Bytez and Snakeweed ever going to return? We saw that Snakeweed was still alive, and Spider Bytez was saying that it wasn't over and that he'd be back. Also, they just let that Monkey run loose in New York City. How does no one notice giant Plant Monsters, Huge Spiders, and Mutant Cyborg Monkeys running around?

It's a cartoon.

How does Doctor Octopus get around unnoticed? Because who cares.

I thought today's episode was pretty good. As someone else said, it would be tough to top last weeks episode. It was cool seeing Dogpound debut though and getting a quick look at Fishface to keep him relevant. Always nice seeing the foot too. I'm definitely buying the buggies! Those were awesome. I look forward to the shellraiser's debut also. Hopefully soon!

The next episode is called "Mousers Attack!" so Stockman will probably be in it, and maybe HE will build the legs for Fishface.
Fishfaces's metal feet do look similar to the feet of Stockman's armor which in itself look vaguely like Mousers feet so I'd say this is possible.

Hey guys. Looks like April's student ID is from 9th grade. Which is 14/15, right? You think she's significantly older than the turtles? Like 17?

The writers and producers have said it numerous times at least.

Good episode!! Like others have said Dogpound is HUGE! I like that the buggy splits off into 4.

So April goes to Roosevelt High School eh? After doing some research I found what is possibly her school:

Also, it seems that Space Heroes has a Worf equivilent now. *lol*

I likes it. I thought it was weird how Dogpound just stood there forever while Mikey & Raph fumbled with their smoke pellets though.

I guess I'll buy it. It's still in the air until they write it into the show

Why does Dogpound even obey Shredder? He could easily defeat Shredder with his size.

Don't be so sure. Shredder is not to be trifled with.
