TMNT 1 April was Judith Hoag, TMNT 2 and 3 was Paige Turco.

Hmm, while I can obviously see that the costumes for TMNT 1 were of better overall design, I can't help but liking the TMNT costumes more (with the expection of Leo) as far as their faces go. Gah, it's really close though.

Yes, I know TMNT 1 was an amazing movie filled with action, drama, emotion, and great story and effects. It's easily the best of the three. I just personally like movies with a bit more humor, like TMNT 2.

Personally, I can't see much difference between the first and second costumes for Raph and Mike (Leo and Don are pretty obvious though). I daresay that knowing that Jim Henson's Creature Shop did the work for the first 2 movies.

But every time I see the costumes from the third movie, I faint when I see the horrible mouth articulation and obvious lack of realism in the costumes overall. Yes, they DID look like frogs in the third movie, I'm sorry to say. Plain and simple, the third movie was worth killing yourself over (and yet I own all 3 of them...)

The suits were done by Hensson, and were ok in TMNT 2, but clearly inferior to the first suits. Personally I didn't like the loss of realism, but the whole feeling changed, and so did the suits.

Yeah they just really sucked. The didn't have any life to them. I literally thought it just looked like some guy in a frog suit. But not a good frog suit. They just appeared may to rubber.

OMG I was thinking yesterday that Mikey looked like a demented green E.T in the third movie, especially in that pic in the comparisons.

Judith Hoag is hotter than Paige Turco.

First of all, Rapheal, you are totally nuts, er, in my opinion... Second, the pics lined up are like de-evolution in progress... Man... Makes me wanna add in cartoon and comic faces just to complete the set... Face shots from the first mirage comic, and then end with shots of four different baby turtles with photoshopped bandannas.

Yeah, the evolution of the turtle suits definetly went to wrong direction. So did the movies themelfs. But It seems that the Hallmark movie will be step to right direction. Of course all we know yet is just hype, so we don't really know how it's going to turn out.

Peter seems to have faith, so I have high hopes for the HM movie.

Oh man, I'm soooooo looking forward to see the Hallmark-movie since Peter said that Splinter would look way better in it. I'm also wondering if the turtles will have a traditional outfit like in the new show or something slightly different.

Again, Hensen's did NOT do the suits in the 3rd movie.

I don't think there was any doubt of that... And Yeah, since the HM movie will be "sort of sequel" to the first movie, and Steve Barron is involved, It will most probably be great.
