What part of the ninja turtles is the best? For example, the comics, cartoons, movies, action figures, video games? Post your comments as well to what you pick?

*Anarky* · 07-14-2005, 09:13 PM

I like the cartoon best. New show, old show, I don't care. But the old show will always hold that special place in my heart, it's something I grew up with. I can't just cross it out of my mind.

*XERO* · 07-14-2005, 09:20 PM

Cartoons.

However, I take a particular liking to the videogames as well...

*Buslady* · 07-14-2005, 10:44 PM

for me, Movie 1. That one will always be apart of me as much as Raph is. Sick I know.

Serp · 07-15-2005, 11:43 AM

The Cartoons and Movies and old school Action figures.

*Sage Ninja* · 07-15-2005, 01:19 PM

definatly the cartoons

both old and new

Michaelangelo|DAH · 07-15-2005, 06:36 PM

I'm gonna have to go with the comics, if they could bring some of the roughness from the comics into the cartoon then it would be absolutely awesome. Of course the cartoon still kicks ass, and I can't wait to see how the movie in 2007 will turn out.

verminator_x · 07-15-2005, 06:40 PM

the comics most the old ones, and the archies.

Shreddette · 07-16-2005, 04:01 PM

Old toon and video game. Although the video game was short, and the ending was disappointing with the "Winners don't use drugs" or some drug related catchphrase. I was hoping for some drama with Krang to happen, or something. Or see Shredders face even but noooooooo.

Still was the only game I'd play in the arcade.

NeoBix · 07-16-2005, 05:59 PM

Actually, Shreddette, the "Winners Don't Use Drugs" logo didn't happen at the end of the game. That was actually a logo that would pop onto the screen periodically if nobody put any quarters into the machine. And also, you do get to see Shredder's face when you knock his helmet off when you're fighting him. Granted, his face is all "pixelly" and there's not much detail on it, but it's still his face!

Also, my favorite ninja turtles "thing" ever is the arcade game I was just talking about. The original TMNT 4-player arcade machine. Too much nostalgia over it.

*cowabunga14* · 07-16-2005, 06:51 PM

The cartoons and the video games. The cartoons really hold a special place in my heart. I remember the humor of the Old Toon. It was great. I have two of the Old Toon tapes. The New Toon is great but if I wanna laugh I would watch the Old Toon. The video games are really rad. I remember when I went to my mom's friend's house and I played Sega Genesis with her son. We played Tournament Fighters. That was really fun. Whenever I went to their house we'd play Genesis before we play with action figures.

Mandi-chan · 07-17-2005, 06:19 AM

New toon and the movies. I'm starting to like the old toon more, haven't read much of the comics, and haven't played any of the old games in years!

*Masked Ninja* · 07-18-2005, 03:14 PM

Cartoon, old and new, each for their own reasons.

@ Buslady: I think I understand why you love the movie so much - in my opinion, it's Raph at his best. (I'm a Leo fan myself, but I readily admit that Raph's the best in the movie, hands down.)

I really wish I could add that I love the comics, but I've never read them. I really want to, but have never found any yet. Ah well... keep searchin'!

*Jephael* · 07-20-2005, 09:53 AM

The Archie series by far is both my favorite TMNT collectible and universe! I just love the way they dealt with so many issues like endangered species, pollution and global warming throughout their battles with various villians!

The only terrible thing though was the death of the Mutanimals. If I had any say in the matter, I would never have let them kill off such awesome characters!

*Mecha Cow* · 07-20-2005, 10:04 AM

Mirage, first movie and the new 'toon for me.

Of course I grew up with the old cartoon and it's a great show in its own right, but those aren't the TMNT I know and love.

lambofun · 07-25-2005, 01:27 PM

My favorite part of the TMNT is the old cartoons and Movies. 1st tmnt movie took my breath away and I love Secret of the Ooze as well. I'm happy to still be into the TMNT, all this time for at least 16 years. My cousin Mikey (coolmike1586) is a huge fan as well, so we share kind of a bond with each other, knowing we have been with the TMNT since the 1st movie and old cartoons.

I started reading the comics like in 2002 or 2003 and I have a love for them too now. Opening my mind with more ninja turtles stories.

Videogames: I have had a good time with the videogames with Turtles In Time and the 1st Ninja Turtles. I like TMNT 2: Arcade Game, Manhattan Project and Tournament Fighters.

*Katie* · 07-25-2005, 02:51 PM

Though nothing beats the old Mirage comics in my heart (after all, it's what made me love the turtles) I really appreciate the new cartoon and the first movie.

i love the darkness of it all with just the right amount of light hearted stuff sprinkled in....

*Weapon X* · 07-25-2005, 03:28 PM

-First Movie.
-Mirage Vol.1.
-Old Toy's series 1 and 2.
-TMNT: Turtles in Time, SNES.

*zkarlette* · 07-25-2005, 06:30 PM

Old toon and New toon and the first two movies

MasterMole · 07-25-2005, 06:56 PM

It's probably unfornate, but I never read the comics. I assume Mirage is Best. I like the old show, and I hope whole series is released on dvd. I loved the old toys, and still do. I enjoy this current show, and I'm buying all the dvds. Unfortunately, these new toys are lacking. Hopefully they'll improve.
