Mona Lisa from Dimension X?

[miru]

If Mona Lisa gets in, do you think she'll be from Dimension X rather than being a mutant? I think so, because of what the mutagen apparently does, and Mona doesn't look like the type Shredder wants to use mutagen on.

At the rate the show is going, I'd be surprised if half of New York City isn't mutated by the end of Season 3.

In all seriousness though, I do think that there should be characters coming from Dimension X, Mona Lisa included in Season 3. I'd love to see Rock Soldiers though.

[Midnight Mutant]

I think that could be a fun idea. I'd be open for that change. I hope whatever her origin story is that it's interesting and that she isn't just a one trick pony show like in the original. She has a lot of potential since they didn't really expand much on her 90's counterpart aside from her brief back story. : )

[Shiro Kame]

Yeah, I'd like to see more background about Dimension X. How much do the Kraang control? How many planets have they mutated? What is their backstory with the Rocksoldiers? Who is Traag? What is the Newtralizer's background? Are there Neutrinos?

[TigerClaw]

I'm all for Mona Lisa to appear in the Nick series, but how would they explain her origin? Will she be a normal lizard mutated or a human mutated as a lizard?

Newtralizer was a normal Newt mutated.

Well, if she was FROM Dimension X, she might not be a mutant at all. We've seen through April that Kraang aren't effected by the mutagen. Maybe that's the case with all beings from Dimension X. Maybe if she was from there, she'd just be some sort of lizard person.

I can still see Mona Lisa as April's mother, maybe she attempts to prevent the Kraang from coming after her daughter. Is mutated into a lizard, and ends up being captured by the Kraang and was forcibly taken to Dimention X.

That would be pretty cool. I'd rather an alien rather then another mutant.

Me too, I'm almost sick of them at this point. Aliens would be a nice change of pace.

[TigerClaw]

Given how this show takes a lot of liberties on characters, I woudn't be surprise if that turned out to be the case. Some characters have there origins completely changed just for this series.

Michelangelo will be the one to name her Mona Lisa.

I wouldn't mind it, if only for one episode. Don't want her in more episodes than that, she's one of my least favorite characters and we don't need any more love interests, thank you

Agreed. I never liked her in the OT, and I hated that she was automatically a love interest just because she happened to show up and be female.

[Midnight Mutant]

She doesn't HAVE to be a love interest. Just because she was (Sort of) in the OT doesn't mean its set in stone. She's more of an 'open slate' kind of character and I don't think she should be stiffed to one episode just because of her original character or origin.

Funny that you say that 'cause Mona Lisa IS April's mother. The original Mona Lisa from the 80's cartoon was voiced by Pat Musick, Pat Musick is Mae Whitmans mother...and Mae voices April on the current series

[Mona_Lisa]

I have a pretty long script idea for this I'd love to force on Nick lol. but in short I'd like for her to be a mutant girl.
Once from a wealthy family took gymnastics incorporate the collage student physics major thing... But through a terrible accident is mutated. Latter saved by Raph... Falls in love with Raph, but Raph keeps pushing her away denying his feelings (She annoys him at first). Finally Donny makes more anti mutagen and Tearfully Mona Lisa is changed back to human form and goes back to her human life. Raph would be sad but know she was better off and he wasn't good for her... ENTER NINJARA (alien) Now all Raph shippers are happy!!!!!

Yeah, this IMO is my only hope for a Mona Lisa in this series.

Yes...I have pointed this out before and it would be cool if Pat Musick could reprise her role as Mona Lisa for this series. But that's not up to me, that's up to Nick and it's staff.

[saber16]

... maybe as a foil for Newtralizer?

I didn't feel she was much of a love interest, but Raph was drawn to her because the two were evenly matched in personality and wit. I feel this is why so many people liked her character for the OT. I know that's why I did.

Are you saying this because the woman who voiced Mona Lisa originally is Mae Whitman's mother?

Edit: Should have read the other replies in the thread.

Well it wasn't like she was mutated in a traditional way even on the old show. Even as a kid I found it weird that she got swept away in some nuclear sub back wash, no lizard or salamander in sight, and got changed.

At the rate the show is going, I'd be surprised if half of New York City isn't mutated by the end of Season 3.

And just like that I'm reminded of that one episode that had all the mutants being rounded up by DIRK SAVAGE MUTANT HUNTER!!! including what looked like a giraffe house wife and a stork office worker who just happened to be mutants. It's like they suddenly implied there was this sizable mutant population that was a large controversial point in New York City politics for one episode and then dropped it. I think, been awhile since I watched it.

Ah Saturday mornings...

Wait, what were we talking about?

I actually think the most appealing point of Mona Lisa (besides the obvious point of being a romantic interest to the turtles) would be that she's an ordinary girl who suddenly finds herself mutated into this unfamiliar thing and has to adjust to this new life and new friends who share the situation of being mutants. If you're going to make her from dimension X I'm not sure why you wouldn't just create a new character from scratch.
