I remember people complained the Imagi film made the Turtles too skinny. And yet those designs were pretty damn decent compared to Bay Turtles.

Why did they do that anyways? If you're gonna go full on fugly, at least make them look like real turtles.
Now, I want to hug you. Just a little.

Yeah, I've got no problem with the Imagi design. They're Turtles; they looked good enough.

Isn't that the guy who was calling BayTurtles a "precious gift" or somesuch all through 2014?

Who the hell considers cynically and lazily monetizing a brand a "gift"? Is he Michael Bay's bank account given human form?

Every couple of years or so it must come out to feed. It's 2016, it grows hungry.

so, tonight in my dreams;

a grey and lifeless Spider-boring will spin a web, of average size and post it to instagram, while a big red creature burps-up half digested Meganfoxes. Meanwhile Scott Baio makes a Butter sculpture of Michael Bay, posing a top a pile of Money, while dressed as a nun.

thanks all.

The sounds like friend of my wife. She and her sons sat down to watch Bay Turtles on Netflix...and subsequently turned it off. I've been meaning to lend them my copies of the other 4 films...but never got around to it.

I liked their builds, but something about their heads made them look too lizard-like for me. Too much like a cartoon gecko.

Thousand times better than BayTurtles though.

Yep, that's the complaint. The heads were the big problem. why they went for a re-design at all, I'll never understand.

That too. No proper cloth sim; then again, it was 2007... CG was still pretty expensive.

sigh...

I dreamed a dream...of a better world....where turtle people looked like turtles...
