The "third toe" debate.

Yes, there has always been a "third toe," which has always been in the position of an exaggerated heel. My beef with it is that considering how right they got everything else in the designs, IMO, throwing in the third toe up front is an unnecessary break of form.

No, the change doesn't stand out much in the CGI designs that Nickelodeon has released, but it DOES stand out in the action figures. And the action figures are another example of perfection with the unnecessary flaw of having the third toe there.

And I will not stop voicing my opinion to placate you or anyone else. Really, I don't know why you had to throw the attitude into your post because this could have otherwise been a civil and healthy discussion.

The "attitude" that I threw into my post is there because I came to thread for pictures and information and instead I saw a ton of whining. About something inconsequential.

And no one has answered the real question: does it alter the concept of TMNT at all? NO.

So, shut up. Like I said, you're getting a new TMNT cartoon. Isn't that enough? Isn't that what is important? If the property were still in Laird's hands the chances of us getting a new toon at all would be slight, at best.

My problem, at the end of the day, is with fandom in general. People do not like change. And so they bitch and moan endlessly about stupid things and finding any real information amongst the noise is impossible.

Am I on a soapbox? Sure. Does that make me as bad as everyone else? Probably.
