All I want is Turtle Power

But if I have to choose I would go with Cowabunga, it sounds better than Booyakasha and is a "established" Catchphrase the Turtles used for over 20 Years now.

I manage just fine without any catchphrase.

Its there, it exist. Cowabunga, Booyakasha. Whatever, as long as the character using the catchphrase sounds natural using it. And Mikey sounded okay saying Booyakasha.

I think both are fine as well.

One just has more nostalgia to it than the other is all.

Pretty much this.

Honestly, who gives a shit? It's a kids' series and if the powers that be decide the Turtles should have a funny word to throw around that kids can connect to the series, then whatever. One is just as good as the other, and change is generally refreshing.

Obviously "Cowabunga" is ingrained in the minds of anyone over 15 or so, but it doesn't really matter.

I like "Cowabunga" the best. "Booyakasha" i think can be cool but it doesn't sound as great as "Cowabunga". "Bunzai" in 2k3 toon just didn't work for me.

If it was used in the 4kids show, it wasn't as often as Raph Paulsen said it in the OT.

Where's the "I don't give a Master Splinter's kiester!" option?

By the way, it's good to be back after a weekend at my grandparents. Love them, but some of my lil' second (or is it first once removed?) cousins are a bit of a handful.

Both rule. I like the two. Booyakasha is kind of cool when you say it like three times. Still, I'm hoping to unexpectedly hear cowabunga again.
