Easy: Krang.

Why? 'Cause he's funnier, and when it comes to the main OT villains, that's all that really matters, eh? Being the one who wears the "pants" in the Shredder-Krang duo, Krang gets all the best lines and I love seeing him treat the Shredder like dirt.

I haven't read the IDW comics yet, but probably the image of Krang as a humours character is still going to be the prime image of Krang in my head.

Not saying that he isn't a large reptilian creature, but I always thought that whatever happened to Krang (the removal of his body) happened to those other guys as well. I was always wondered why the did it...

Hardest decision ever huh? Well then Shredder. Fifth favorite villain of all time. I was never a fan of Krang. Just thought he was an annoying brain when I was younger.

That was "April's Fool". They were experimenting with dimensional transport on the impervium gem. I suppose because dimensional travel was in its infancy at that point, and they needed a way to escape their prison.

That's a toughie, but Shredder beats Krang by a few for me. His constant whining and his excessive vocabulary are hilarious XD

As a child when I first played TMNT 2 Arcade and laid eyes on him - it was frightfully exciting. His appearance was fierce and pure badass, his theme music brings chill to my spine. He kidnapped April and bashed through the office window glass.

Being the final boss, it speaks volume of his authority and power. He was the source of all evil that was happening in the game and he's a force to be reckoned with. He's a menace and I adore him for it.

Now the OT Shredder might be goofy at times, but I will always relate the game Shredder with the OT one. I didn't mind the lite version just for the cartoon version sake. Didn't like the 2k3 utrom version though.

The first movie Shredder basically hit the ball out of the park. Each scene he was in were gold. Nick's version is fine too.

Hmmm... I think it was the "Four Musketurtles" when Krang gives a flashback with 2 other headless Krangs about the gem.

Shredder without a doubt. He just brings a smile to my face every time. I like him as a character more than Krang, too.

Still, the hilarity levels are the highest when the two are together.

Hard choice, indeed! Krang always was my favourite and I couldn't wait for his toy to be released. I never liked any of Shredder's toy, still today the only one I like is Toon Shredder, which was never released over here, so doesn't even count.

But, Shredder in the Mirage comics and the 1990 movie is far superior to any Krang. As much as I always had a good laugh with the humorous OT Shredder, I often got angry at his incompetence and deeply wanted a competent and evil villain. The comics and the movie gave me what I was asking for.

Hmmm. I'd say OT Krang, one of my favorite characters in the OT.

Shredder, of course! I always loved his voice, and even at his most incompetant, he was always entertaining and wickedly fun and evil. I loved how he somehow always managed to get away, or get the last laugh on Krang. And his back-stabbing nature made him seem like more of a threat, while Krang just seemed straight-up bad but obvious about it.

Favorite Shredder moment? When he blew up the Channel 6 building and said "I. Never. Bluff."

I do agree with JYX. I wish they had gone more into Shredder's past than they did. There's so much potential there...how did he meet Krang? What was it like for him in Japan before he came to America...

Krang for me, no doubt.

When I was younger I liked Shredder more, but now that I've been re-watching the series as an adult, I realize how hilarious and witty Krang is. He just always has the best lines. He definitely wears the pants in the Krang/Shredder relationship XD
