I like it, the turtles expressions are, oh very "Don't f*** with me" would be the way I'd put it. I think whoever made that nailed a sorta slimmer Mirage style.

With those eyes it's like part TMNT, part Frank the rabbit from Donnie Darko.

I like it...
No seriously I think it looks awesome. It's kinda like a mix between the new movies, the older ones and the comics. As for the Zipper on the back you could probably attach a small layer of green latex on the back to cover it up, but i think it looks cool as is. I mean considering all oth eother masks look like crap. Compared to this http://www.comparestoreprices.co.uk/...-5-7-years.jpg
I think that's pretty awesome!
Man.Now I see Laird crying in a corner clutching a Donatello plushie repeating the phrase "It'll be Alright Donnie", over and over...

As what I said doesn't at all pertain to this because it's fan made I just get sick at the majority of the fans inability to do anything other then point out flaws in something. It's the exact reason Laird hasn't spoken to anyone since Volume 4 ended.

Their all fickle and have no idea on how to compliment something and give criticisms. It's either "That's Awesome!" Like the reaction to the new action figures from Neca or "That sucks boo!" Like the reaction to anything involving FF. Funny though they whine about how bad FF looks animation wise and they eat up the new look their going for. Why I have no clue when it looks worse then FF. Most likely because it's not in the future and had that 2K3 look. I also love how they say FF is terrible yet most of the haters admit to never watching more then a few episodes. If I only watched the first episodes of 2K3 I wouldn't have bothered with it either cause honestly it bores the hell out of me.

It's like the whole fanbase refuses to accept anything new or different. They'd rather have an entire series of horrid comic adaptations*Most of the fans haven't even read all the comics so this cracks me up that they care either way* instead of original and good storylines. Not that the comics have bad storylines but the comics are written for adults and have more blood, violence, and morbid stories in them then allowed in a children's program so trying to adapt them is utterly stupid in my opinion. Also nothing can be light hearted. Everything has to be "Dark"! It seems like if they had it their way the show would be titled "TMNT: Black" and it would be a completely black screen with violent dialog being spoken the entire time.

Anyways this is all totally off topic and none of this has anything to do with the mask itself so my apologies for bringing that up in the first place. Being as how these are fan made I would assume you can order one without a zipper but if even the alternatives offered are good. Like I said it's rare you see good masks for the turtles and I believed this personally to be one of those rare ones. They looks better then the crap they used in the third movie.

I like it. Personally, if I knew what to do with it other than put it on my mantle, I would buy it and run around the neighborhood with that thing on. It's one of the best masks of anything that I've ever seen. The price is amazing as well. Again, the zipper is a bit out in the open, but nothing a few touch ups can't fix, no?

I totally agree with you Spit. Its really disheartening that nothing can be good enough for some people. It's a wonder anyone tries anything new anymore.

Thumbs up

Spitty, man, I agree with you too. I have my complaints every now and then, but it's mostly out of my fear that the TMNT won't appeal to enough people to keep it going.

At any rate, I think those masks are amazingly wicked and I kind of want to buy them all. I ... will be very poor when I retire.
