WTF? The first movie got figures back in 1990, part of the "Movie star" line.

Well ****... now I'm scared. I was like "well... if this is what they look like, I'm good"

When I hit the spoiler button I had about a 1/4 of second of "oh my god, thank f@#$k they look normal." Then I realized it was the 1990 movie toy shown at sdcc. Damn.

I'd be pretty fine with that, more or less.

Not a fan of the bandana though. Much prefer the usual eye mask thing.

I'm shocked nothing has leaked yet

That's a very interesting design, The Turtles never really had claws, But they used to have them before the mutation, So I think this makes more sense.

Any one care to speculate on the sub-order of turtle.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turtle
Though, if it is indeed true that they look more human than turtle, it may not matter.

Anyone have a preference, or do you care?

The turtles were always said to be red ear sliders, except in IDW where they're sea turtles of some sort.

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 08-21-2013, 08:57 PM

Where did you pull THAT from? They were in a terrarium in IDW in a lab, with only a small amount of water for drinking. They were NOT sea turtles. They just looked like baby land or pond turtles. If they'd been sea turtles, they'd have been kept in a salt-water tank. Because sea turtles grow too big to be kept in a small tank, and they require salt water to help support their bulk. Since they obviously can't move on land very well AT ALL. Sorry, but calling them sea turtles just makes no sense. They were never even referred to as such!! They were sliders in IDW as well- and Baxter even mentions replacing them with 20$ at a pet shop!

Sea turtles have flippers.

Toby Barrett · 08-21-2013, 09:06 PM

It's because Duncan drew them as sea turtles...

*TrickOrTreater* · 08-21-2013, 09:08 PM

Yeah I found that to be kinda odd. But I guess that just further separates their pre-mutated form to their post-mutated form.

*Powder* · 08-21-2013, 09:14 PM

I wonder how many times Duckie will put her foot in her mouth...

*chrisdude* · 08-21-2013, 09:26 PM

Well that's just silly. That never caught my attention. The mutated turtles might as well have ten fingers at toes, then.

*CyberCubed* · 08-21-2013, 09:42 PM

I didn't like IDW making them sea turtles either. It makes no sense why they grew hands then.

Then again most of the IDW origin seemed to "change things for the sake of changing things," in terms of the Turtles. I still can't get over April naming the turtles instead of Splinter.

Yeah, because mutant turtles who were trained in ancient Japanese martial arts by a rat makes total sense.

I'm betting the artist just Googled "Turtle" for a visual reference and didn't get too technical about it.

~~Teal Turtle~~ · 08-22-2013, 08:19 AM

Wow newbies dont get any respect around here....

I will ask one more time, has anyone on the forums actually seen the movie design?
