But I'll have to say, there are some good fans commenting, including the joke "did Shredder draw those to make the fans upset?"

It seems like fewer general fans are enthusiastic about Nick's show than they were prior to the start of the 4Kids show, and I take that as a warning sign. Since these are still images and not animated scenes, we still don't have the complete picture yet (more than just a half-second of animation). It is so important not to "spoil" projects in today's just a few inches/buttons and you know-it-all society; just provide the appropriate promo. No scripts, no storyboards, no clips until a few months before airing. Hopefully Nick will call the animators that some improvement is needed; this is not a show where the younger kids will suddenly watch it; their parents won't support them as much if they don't like it!

I like the new designs I can understand if Nick took the turtles and totally make them unrecognizable then TMNT fans should complain. There are always gonna be fans that hate change or those TMNT fans that still hold onto the 1987 universe and refuse to like any other version or universe.

I remember commenting on "The Amazing Spider-Man" trailer and all I said is why we gotta sit through another origin story? And when people responded all they were complaining about was the new suit and the person who's now playing Spider-Man. Some fans don't like change.

The design work is great, nicely done stuff, but that's never been my complaint, there are obviously skilled artists, compositors, and animators at Nickelodeon. I'm just not feeling the designs as Ninja Turtles. The three toe thing has been addressed for months, and was one of my original concerns but that's very miniscule in the spectrum of things. I realize the Turtles have taken on many forms, from being a brooding and violent parody, to being total bubbly goofballs in the original animated series, returning to a combination of both in the movies, and having many different looks within the various comics released over the years. I'm just not feeling this one and haven't for a while. The only thing I've seen so far as a redeeming characteristic were the designs for Shredder. When I attended the fan event at Nickelodeon Studios back in March, Shredder really caught my eye. I just wish that our four heroes portrayed the "ninjaness" of their evil arch nemesis. Now this is only my opinion, I'm sure millions will still watch and enjoy once it arrives on tv, I'm still just a little bummed. The only thing I can compare my emotions towards it would be something like, re-uniting with your first true love only to find that she's got a deadly STD. Maybe that analogy sounds harsh and a bit inappropriate and I apologize for that but ultimately that's the best analogy I can use to describe my feelings. I'm not comparing Nickelodeon's TMNT to an STD.

For the 100000000000000000000000th time, the blades are retractable. They serve as chucks most of the time.

I am up for all interpretations of the turtles. but the only thing that concerns me is the animation style. As good as it looks. It reminds me of flash game styling. Have you ever watched wonderpets or other kiddy flair with flash animation? UGH!!!. That is my only worry.

*The Stryker* · 11-05-2011, 08:19 PM

Flash animation and 3D CG animation are two completely different things.

*Redeemer* · 11-05-2011, 10:10 PM

We've come to the conclusion that they were talking about the comic series.

Gotcha thanks Gobo I guess my tmnt comics will have to keep me going for now....

The show starts in September 2012 I suppose, when the usual Fall lineup of new series starts.

They should start airing previews and hype the series up by summer though.

Not digging the gap in Donnie's tooth, but otherwise not bad.

I dunno man. Those chains are awfully long. Looks like a gusari kama to me.

Two guys involved in the show said it, so...

Coulda changed since then. I mean look at that picture in the first post, the chain in nunchucks just don't come that long.

I really don't care though. Mike has always been the one turtle to use a ton of different weapons anyways (manriki gusari, grappling hook, tonfa) so I'm not crying foul over the loss of the nunchucks.

I beleive someone working on the show said that mike would use both the Kusari-gama and chucks depending on which situation, and that they weren't one weapon.

Could be wrong, but I'd thought I'd heard that.
