Kinda weird having more than 4 frogs. Also weird that some have obvious different traits while others are just generic looking frogs.

Kinda wish they didn't make the frogs look like... well... actual frogs standing on their hind legs. They should have gone a bit more middle-ground land make them look a little more like the original series in this case.

Yeah, yeah, I know they're frogs. But the Turtles don't really look like turtles. They look like weird green guys with shells on their backs. If the Turtles mutated the way the frogs did they'd all look like Tokka from the Secret of the Ooze, or like Souls Winter design.

They seem to gain human looking teeth and lack sexual dimorphism of long claws and tails. They probably look like sterile eunuchs to real turtles.

The nick turtles probably have tails. They just tuck them in their shells.

No, but a guy by the name of Gavin Hignight did, and he also wrote a couple of episodes for 2003! Prodigal Son was one of them. He also wrote the Newtralized episode as well.

That's what I thought. Don't the turtles have human DNA and that's what makes them so humanoid?

So what do you think was the last thing they touch prior to their mutation? Each other?

Yep! More than likely, them being in a petshop, they were probably constantly getting picked up and handled by humans, from the turtle farm owner, to the shop owner, to maybe even random kids coming in to check the babies out. I really hope, for the Karai/Leo fans sake, that the human DNA going through the Turtles is from the shop owner from having to pick them up and put them into the jar, and not Yoshi's.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if the pet shop owner is Casey's dad!

I've always wanted to see Slash fight Leatherhead.

I am surprised a lot of turtle experts dont seem to understand the reason why they do not have tails. Tails for male turtles are basically their penis. Do you seriously think it is ok for a cartoon to show off the penis of turtles for everyone to see!

Well, it's clear the mutation did something to their tails, but from the Bigfoot episode, they made it quite clear that they are indeed boys, what with poor Mikey's netherregions getting slammed onto the Finger's knee.

All of the turtles are separated for it.
Spoiler:
It showed Leo swinging on a rope and then landing someplace.

Next it changed to Mikey who was fighting off foot I think and then all of a sudden Rahzaa shows up and he had to fight him.

Next it switches to Raph who's fighting with ease until he was faced with Fishface.

Donnie was last to be shown and he at the end had to face Tigerclaw.

I'm going to assume for Leo, that he has to face Shredder during his vision quest.
I am really looking forward to seeing these in action. To be honest, this is what I'm looking forward to most this season.

Yes, I'm looking forward to the vision quests as well, especially Leo's. That's going to be awesome.

To be honest, I'm most interested in Mikey's given his character. To me, he's changed the most over this series and is progressing. I know some people really like season 1, but for me, season 1 Mikey was a bit...annoying with the whole ADD/ADHD thing going on. He also didn't seem to care that he was viewed as stupid.

Splinter: As you can see, Mikey does not think.
Mikey: Thank you.

Season 2 we see that it bothers him that he's thought of in that way by the others (Shellacne).

That's why I'm most curious about his Vision Quest and what he's supposed to learn or gain from it.

Vision Quest?

Sorry, its hard to read every single page of this thread to know what is coming up aside from Punk Frogs, Muck Man, and Mondo Gecko.

Yes, the Turtles are going on vision quests complete with new outfits and all.

And, SSJup, I'm a Leo fan, so I'm biased.
