The turtle costumes were nice, the establishing shots were great, some of the sets were super awesome, soundtrack was good, tons of good concepts for both characters & plots (though poorly executed), there's a lot of merit to it. You just have to look past the cheese & bad acting.

Probably. lol I watched it when it originally aired. I was just glad that turtles was back after missing out on the last coupe of seasons of the original series at the time because CBS in my area stopped airing eps at about season 7 or so. When I visited my aunt and realized she still had Saturday morning cartoons in her city/area, I was shocked to see red skies, a new intro with movie footage, and a different art style.

I really liked Venus because of the magic thing, but I'm going to be honest. I don't remember much about TNM. I was in high school at the time, so I would tape it and watch it after school (I had club activities). I don't recall much outside of the "na na na na Ninja...Ninja Turtles" theme, Raph using a motorcycle, Mikey's weapon, no April, a goofy Power Rangers crossover, and...that's about it. I haven't seen it since it originally aired and I'm scared to go back and watch it. lol

This was REALLY scraping the bottom of the barrel here...

I'll give you the sets and costume design but that's it. It's like that was their only priority to get those things right and mess everything else up!

The Next Mutation WAS bad, but depending how you look at it, It can be seen as so bad it's good. It's so goofy and cheap that it's hilarious. At least that's how I see it.

I agree. The sets were pretty good, the costumes were... decent (I just didn't like the designs) but everything else was crap. Shredder was only in like 3 episodes and then they made it like Power Rangers.

See how little I recall? I don't even remember Shredder in the show at all.

Nice interview. I think the part, where Ciro talks about his and Seth Greens first conversation about Leo, is really interesting. That Seth's memory of Leo as a carachter is exactly where "he needs to be"

I wonder how many people nearly ended up having a heart attack.

Here's the other side

I am so utterly sure I have seen that design before somewhere a long time ago. If that picture from this years Comic Con? Because I've seen that van.

Anyone else still skeptical about Kurtzman? Could it be possible that he's the Kraang with the eyepatch? Perhaps I'm overthinking this.

Anyways, the Season 2 Trailer looked awesome and I'm definitely looking forward to it. Shredder appearing behind Leo, Full-on Alien invasion, Kraang and Foot discover Lair, Shredder vs. Leatherhead, it's definitely going to be great. My only concern is if Mutagen Man doesn't show up and if other mutants such as Snakeweed, Spiderbytez, and even the Squirrelanoids (since they're in the opening) don't show up. Other than that, looking forward to it. Too bad it's being released in September, but hey, this 2 month wait actually isn't so bad. This month really flew by fairly quickly IMO.

I don't know about the Kraang with the eyepatch. But I'm definitely suspicious about him too. Mostly because April was able to sense that he was watching her and the Turtles in "The Kraang Conspiracy"

I believe it was on a tent version of the Party Bus, that was being sold in England. I'll see if I can find it for you.

EDIT: Found it! Turned out it was the Battle Tank not the Party Bus. You can see it in the third image, the one with the little boy poking out from the top.

Talking Season 2 Finale

So let's see here... In the Season 2 finale we are going to be seeing a lair and city invasion, Turtle Mech, Kraang Prime, Shredder vs Leatherhead, and the Leo one-shot. Awesome!

Mikey getting stuck in Dimension X and the others have to go get him (not the final I know but it's still in one of the last 4 episodes)

Oh sh!t, I just realized something. Unless I missed it, we haven't seen Leo or Donnie's rooms yet, have we? Will we get to see them before the lair is destroyed?

I always assumed Donnie's room was his lab, but yeah, we really do need to see Leo's room.

Well, I'm sure Donnie does camp out in the lab frequently. But in all likely hood he has his own bedroom.

No we haven't and we probably won't.

I agree. Though I don't think Donnie's room is the lab. Unless he sleeps on a computer...

We won't see Leo and Donnie's bedrooms unless there is a reason to have those sets.
But from the sound of things at Comic Con, the Turtles will occasionally be in New York so they may re-salvage the lair.
