I donno, looking the clip of Mikey adjusting his bandanna as he looks up. The plastron seems to be flexible and moving like chest muscles would move lifting arms up and down.

See i agree to an extent because i think they did it this way top increase flexibility work an actual real plastron they would not be able to move like ninjas.

But again, the first movie didn't have flexible plastron and they were able to cartwheel, flip, roll, kick, etc. There's no reason the plastron would need to be flexible and move with the CG, really.

Not that I'm adamantly taking a stance on this. One quick clip of Mike isn't enough to really get a feel for exactly how they're handling the plastron. Just a brief indication to me it looks like it moves more like shell-pecs.

That and Raph kinda looked like he had shell-abs in a design; forget if that was toy or photo, though so I'm not pursuing the point much just yet.

They were a bit flexible, look at Don's

[SwiftNinjaFox]

Yeah, a little to lean forward, but I mean the individual sections didn't rotate and angle like muscle movements.

That's because they were made of rubber, lol.

[MajorViolence]

Yeah I don't think those shells were meant to be flexible, it was just the limitations of the materials used in the design.

theres a difference between needing to sit down and flexing


building my own shell ive learned its near impossible to keep in completely rigid and still function


and many tmnt cosplayers i talk to learn the same thing..however rarely are the plates individual peices

as for the argument that it needs to flex or they couldnt be ninja esq...well thats where you need to take the grain of disbelief because not everything needs to be so down to earth and realistic

But yeah, it looks like 2 balls in the canister of ooze! (not talking about the porn ad's either)

I don't know what's wrong, it's working for me. Not just regular balls, eggs, turtle eggs, this might possibly be a big revelation..

[SwiftNinjaFox]

I click "show" on the first two and get nothing. no link or picture.
The third shows the picture, though.

First one. This is obviously Raphael touching the mutagen

You see only three fingers there, that scene takes place before this scene

Spoiler:

http://s17.postimg.org/9w7e2l7um/hgf.jpg

because it's obviously the same location and i think that's mutagen machine behind him, and the mutagen that he was touching is made from the captured turtles which means that right after this is the snow escape scene and last

Spoiler:

http://s24.postimg.org/sjt1s3ftw/image.jpg

you can see that that's obviously not the sword and you can see Michelangelo in the background...

EDIT: are those.... eggs in the mutagen canister, like turtle eggs?

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3Rqd0wC4X0...+at+site+A.jpgIt is, so turtles are born in mutagen?

Looks like the ahnd in the first picture is of a rubber glove, not sure why that is obviously Raphael?

Look closer, it has only 3 fingers and only turtle that we saw wearing a costume and a gloves is Raphael.

You only see three fingers because of the angle of the shot. Where did Raphael find a 3 fingered latex glove? Come on. Also just because one shot takes place before another in the trailer, doesn't mean that will be the order in the film. To me, the shot of Donny looks like it's part of the Turtles lair fight. So the hand is not obviously Raphael, and the location is not obviously the same. You might be right but the only thing that is "obvious" is the fact that you are simply guessing.

On that angle you would see some other fingers and those fingers are way to big to be human, we see Raph wearing gloves in the set photos when he's in costume and if you look on the ceeling you will see that it has the same pillars that the place that mutagen machine reveal place has. So that's the same location and probably place where the turtles are held. And i know that Donnie scene is not nowhere near those two, i only posted it because someone's claiming that that foot ninja had a sword...

[SwiftNinjaFox]

Eh, you wouldn't necessarily see more fingers at that angle and it could be one of those large, thick hazmat gloves attached to a window. I don't think it's a hands down clear shot that it's a turtle.

However, there are definitely two balls or possibly eggs in the canister.

(They're eyeballs! Mutagen-Man!!!! No, I'm just kidding ^_^)

any speculation is fun to entertain at this point, there isnt much more to talk about - we dont have a lot to go on, and im betting we are gonna have a dry spell until comic-con.

Considering SDCC 2014 is July 24-27, I sure hope they aren't waiting for then!

Even waiting for a trailer with Transformers 4 at the end of June is leaving a very narrow window to put anything out before release.

[LincolnHawk]

this movie needs to come out...so this section of the forum can be closed

[SwiftNinjaFox]

I believe when it comes out, there will be a surge of the forum getting worse before it settles down.
