I see alot of people bitching about the turtles being too hulking, but honestly, the only turtle that's hulking is Raph.

Everyone else, aside from the massive shells and more noticabe definition, are the size you'd expect the turtles to be.

Hell, from the looks of it, Donnie might be a bit undersized.

But hell, even Raph isn't as big as he looks. Upon futher inspection, he really looks as big as he does because of him being hunched over, with that huge ass shell poking out.

Raph, honestly, looks the size you'd expect, since he's usually the biggest Turtle, muscle wise.

The biggest factor here, which makes them all look much bigger, are their traps, which are ****ing insane.

If they are 3D prints of the cgi models (or hand sculpted mock-ups) I doubt they would have included loose accessories like necklaces, glasses and weapons as that would be time consuming.

With Raph appearing to be Buff, I wouldnt be surprise if hes the one who ends up swearing. I mean, I wouldn't be surprise if hes the one saying stuff like. "Time to kick some ass." or something like that.

I'm having some serious Jim Lee TMNT figure and Next Mutation flashbacks looking at that photo of the turtles there. I'm not so sure I feel they should look as 'muscular' as they do for being teenagers. Steroids much?

I love the comments on the website that has the picture.

"Ghetto Turtles" and "ready for Gears of War".

There we go!

See, if now they would release a still or even just a concept photo of these, it would really go a long way!

I've never had that big a deal with the TMNT depicted as roided out / muscular. I suppose, because they are mutants, and non-human - there really is no "scientific" reason to NOT make them that way. They don't need to develop in the same way or rate as human teenagers, do they?

I personally think they look awesome. Donatello seems a bit skinnier than the rest which is cool. Raphael looking all buffed up makes sense to me. People I know with rage problems spend a lot of time bulking up and lifting weights. So it makes sense to me.

I wouldn't expect them to either, most of them is probably just dudes working on a wacky cartoon adaptation. And that is all they care or know about the movie and its characters.

This is funny to watch. The response to these designs is overwhelmingly POSITIVE! I realize that it is subjective and some people are going to look at these designs and truly feel that they don't look good, but clearly those people are the minority. It seems that these designs are undeniably, at the very least, NOT BAD. Almost everyone thinks they look great. I am in that boat.

The funny part is that the people who decided long ago to be the 'true' TMNT fans, made up their minds that everything about this movie will be bad. Now they're the same people who are saying these designs are bad, but I have a feeling that a fair bit of you are having to suppress your true feelings about these designs… that you are actually impressed. They are non-traditional, they are clearly inspired by the turtles that we all know. They have a new look because this is a new brand of TMNT. I believe that these designs appear to fit in beautifully with a more serious, darker version of TMNT. I am and have always been extremely excited for this movie.
