Still bothered by Nice Guy Donnie.
The rest of the episodes were great though.

I will never tire of Fightin' Splinter.

I wouldn't past them on that.

[plastroncafe]

I say Bring It On.

At the moment there are really only two action figures from the new toon I'd gladly pay money for: Irma and Metalhead.

Okay...maybe icecream kitty too.
He's so damn cute.

[CyberCubed]

Since all of Season 3 is likely scripted already, you probably wouldn't see Irma again till Season 4 if they choose to bring her back at all.

So maybe if Irma comes back, she won't act like the Irma we want then. I don't know. I kind of think that the writers didn't know what to do with her character and thought the Kraang Subprime plot twist would be a great way to get her out of the show, start the Kraang invasion, and introduce Kraang Subprime. I really hope she does come back. Now on the other way of thinking of this, if she wasn't Kraang Subprime, she might be a mutant like Kirby O'Neil is right now. I'm expecting everyone to be turned back into humans with retromutagen at some point though. Also I think some pigeons were mutated, so they need to be turned back to normal too.

Who says they won't bring her back for season three?

Nobody says that. I think it is a 50/50 chance she comes back this season. The Turtle Terminator episode of the original cartoon has Irma replaced with a robot. This might be a different take on that...... or it might not be.

Maybe Ciro just out of spite?

I can't decide if Irma being a Kraang the entire time or the possibility of her being human and then mutated later would be worse.

My guess is Karai will be turned back to a human later this season. Snake Karai seems to just be one story and a way to sell a new action figure.

Way more than me. Only one I care for is the Lego Raph with the full bandana, and I think that one is from the movie. HA, go figure. I hate the movie, but I at least like something toy worthy from it! But, I did buy the Pop Secret Kettle Corn popcorn with Raph on it!



I actually bought the Mikey one too because I just love white cheddar popcorn.

We might get an Ice cream kitty action figure at some point.

If Playmates doesn't want to make a single carded Irma or human Karai, they could be build-a-figures for collecting a few figures, or maybe limited edition convention exclusives or collect UPCs and send in for a mail exclusive figure.

[Luckyday]

From a toy maker stand point, why her turn back to normal if she has shift shaper abilities of turning back to her human form?

[Super Goku]

I don't know, but I kind of assumed even in human form after the mutation, that she isn't as human as she was before.

[NinjaPug]

Jesus Christ this is getting ridiculous. Ciro didn't do anything to your precious Irma out of spite. The big twist was probably his intention for Irma all along.

And Cubed is right. If Ciro didn't plan on bringing her back then you won't see her until season 4 simply due to the production time required for each episode. I doubt Ciro would give in to fan pressure over such a trivial character and bring her back anyway. At least I hope he wouldn't.

[Super Goku]

I guess it might come down to, if we want to see Irma, watch the original cartoon.

Where is Irma?!

Just one more Irma episode, is all I ask. Preferably she returns as a series regular character. At this point, maybe even a cameo would be good, to prove she is out there.

ICK is small enough to be an accessory.

I agree with you, but I can imagine Playmates making her/him bigger.

[Luckyday]

I can totally see them making a plush version of ICK at Build the Bear.

Yeah, I'd forfeit Irma, if us Raph fans can get the Raphael that is not a complete joke/screw up/absent for all the fighting scenes/useless to the team crap that we have been getting. Enough is enough already.

^ This. Totally this. Also, you have to remember that there is the possibility that Irma is still out there. I doubt they'd introduce her just to get rid of her. The Kraang plot worked perfectly with what they wanted to do, and it gave that shock value they were looking for. No big deal here.
