Whoever coined the term "cowa-boomer" to describe us older TMNT fans deserves Raphael style smack upside the head!

The depressing part is that I can easily imagine what this show is going to be like based on how other comic book characters got turned into preschool shows.

I predict the following:
  • It will have a Super Deformed art style (that means even adult characters will have oversized heads).
  • The Turtles will be voiced by actual children.
  • The Turtles will directly address the audience and "ask them for help".
  • The sewer lair will look more like playground than a home or dojo, and so will the Technodrome.
  • The villains will be more like benign pranksters than villains.

That's exactly what a cowaboomer would say.

Don't worry about sdp. Like most leftists, he has an ongoing love affair with owning/manipulating language and words to his own ends.

Back in my day, we spent our Pizza Points on TMNT calculators and we liked it! Kids these days are spending $50 on a credit card for Black April action figures!

If you were a furry in the 90’s, you could only jerk off to Ninjara. Now Sophie Campbell draws a whole town of em? These kids are weak!

This won’t hurt the Turtles whatsoever. As mentioned plenty of franchises have baby/kid shows.

I’ll check it out but I doubt I’d watch. Depending on the designs I would definitely buy some of the toys. There’s already a lot of cute TMNT merchandise around. Plushies, certain toy lines and collectibles.

I’ve actually been thinking about how a lot of popular characters were redesigned to be cuter as time went on and settled into their iconic look.

TMNT, FW anyway. Rounder friendly faces
Garfield, originally way fatter and exaggerated
Woody Woodpecker, started out all zany looking
Tom and Jerry, Tom used to be more realistically drawn
Looney Tunes, early designs were more goofy and not cohesive

Honestly I love the cuter style they turned into. I still like some more “grown up” TMNT too of course...90s movies and 4Kids.

Hey, that special was great! We actually just watched it over the weekend. It's pretty action heavy and my kid cracks up at the jokes. Shame it never took off. Would have been fun to see them follow up on that cliffhanger ending.

I do not expect this "Teeny" show to be anything like Half-Shell Heroes, outside of having cutesy designs.

I still maintain it was super creepy the amount of older dudes strongly advocating for cutesy, pre-teen Half-Shell Heroes and stuff like that left and right a while back. There's something going on there and it's not good.

Get a room, you two! We’re trying to discuss a preschooler cartoon show that hasn't aired yet like normal adults!

Andres, you're the one who made at least 2 different threads of teenage girls doing sports in revealing outfits, one got locked and you made another. IndigoEarth even called you out and gave you their birthdays which confirmed most were underaged
https://forums.thetechnodrome.com/sh...ad.php?t=64887

Embarrasing!

It got locked because weirdos like you started posting pr0n. For no other reason.

You can check the thread, I don't have one post in it, in fact you kept bumping the threads despite other users being creeped out by them. You got called out a few times, and yes you got audited by Indigo herself who checked and verified they had not reached the right age of the videos you kept posting. Sad!
