I REALLY don't see the problem with putting a really new spin on an old character. It's a new incarnation, so they've got to add their own unique ideas to the old characters just as with creating new ones. It's not any different than when the OT made Leatherhead a self-centered wannabe Cajun swamp king or all of the vastly different takes the Rat King has under his belt.

Plus, I kind of vastly prefer alien warrior Mona Lisa to random mutated college student Mona Lisa even though I'm still not big on her, sooooooooooooo...

Yeah, I'm all for it too! Tokka & The Neutrinos were insanely different & I thought both were wonderful. & I too still dislike Mona Lisa, but I'll take this one over the original any day of the week.

I think I agree with the Black Nerd that Tyler Perry totally channeled him in his portrayal of Baxter Stockman. Maybe this is Viacom's way of paying him back?

Mona Lisa being an alien makes sense when they had introduced Newtralizer prior as from some salamander race. I don't see the problem with that.

Using the name "Neutrinos" for some generic microbots that had no face or didn't even speak is another story.

I for one can't wait to see Slash's reaction to Raph telling him that he met and fell in love with a female Salamandrian after their encounter(s) with the Newtralizer and all.

I also didn't really have a problem with the Neutrinos. They reminded me a lot of the robot from the original "The Day the Earth Stood Still".

After waiting so long to see this show's version of the Neutrinos, I can safely say it was extremely disappointing what they ended up being.

There's a very small possibility that if we ever see Bellybomb again, we might find out the Neutrinos are inside those robot drones just extremely tiny and they look like the Neutrinos we know. Assuming Bellybomb has them held prisoner forcing them to pilot those thing.

Slim chance, and unlikely, but you never know

For those of you going to SDCC 2016. I got some recommended questions. And don't lash out on me for repeating at least one.

1) How does Kraang Subprime keep surviving?

I know that what happened to him in Annihilation Earth is debatable. And that he may, or may not have escaped Turtle Prime.

2) Who's leader of the Earth Protection Force? Since Bishop is an Utrom in this series.

3) Weren't any of the Turtles confused about how Renet was able to exist and meet them, if the Earth was destroyed? Or were they too distraught at the time to think about that?

4) What are the chances that we'll learn more about a certain red-head's childhood?

5) We know that Tim Hill is working on something. Could you (Ciro and/or Brandon) tell us what it is exactly?

6) Are the results of the attacks from the Rat King, Kraang Invasion (twice for both) Mega Shredder, Creepweed, and the Triceratons going to sink in? Like how the property damage in Transformers Animated season 1 started to sink in on its season 2?

Good questions. Here's a couple.

1.) When is April actually going to be consistent with her abilities/ when will they be explained? (I guess ya covered that one but it feels like they don't even know what to do with that anymore)

2.) When's Metalhead coming back? (Not really a serious question, I just want to know)

3.) When is Casey going to finally develop as a character?


4.) Are we going to get any story arcs ( City at war) or is it a one episode special?

Just a few to add to the list

some of those old characters are in name only.

If they were to create Nick versions of Ninjara or Alopex, I can guarantee that they would be nothing like there comic book counterparts.
Knowing Nick, they're probably mutate April into a fox for a few episodes, have Mikey called her Ninjara, and have her say 'that's stupid, just call me Alopex'. Either that, or de-mutate Karai and re-mutate her into a fox. They seem to like to turn certain characters into references to older ones, looking at you Bradford and Pulverizer.

It would need to be a different character since April is immune to mutagen.

There was that one time when Kirby turned into a mutant bat, and Mikey was about to call him Wingnut, but Donnie chastises him, and told him not to give Mr O'Neil a monster name.

Wingnut was just a throwaway reference.
