I second them needing better names.

But I can't wait to see them battle TurtleBlade and his master, Rat-Fu.

Didn't the 87 series do that with the various mutants, as well? If so, then it won't be that much of a stretch, should the Nicktoon go there. Also, happy to see Metalhead back.

I'm not crazy about the name, but I do like Dogpound's design. Too bad they didn't do what the old days would have done -- make him military, like Sgt. Bananas, and you get a nice pun out of "dog-face." As for Stinkweed or Snakeweed, oh, that name definitely fits with this franchise. Heh. Besides, we need a Stinkor-type, anyway.

Could the names be better? Yes, but I don't dislike them as much as I thought -- though, Fishface, while a nice design, sounds rather lazy.

Well, these names for the mutants aren't their final names. The dog type mutant will either be called dog pound or bone claw, and the plant/vine mutant will either be stinkweed or snakeweed. I'm pretty sure the fish will be called fish face though.

& where exactly are you getting this information?

*TheBlueTurtle1* · 06-25-2012, 02:27 AM

Do we have any images of these 2 guys, besides the figures?

*Powder* · 06-25-2012, 05:39 PM

Nope, none yet. But I imagine they won't look much different than the toys. Not that I don't wanna see 'em too...

**Jester** · 06-25-2012, 05:43 PM

Is the 1st boss from Dark Horizon supposed to be DogPound?

Um ... no offense, but ... those names are even worse, actually.

Much worse.

Meanwhile, I bet if this were still the Fred Wolf series, that dog dude would be named "Dog Breath", and he'd be, like, a giant pink poodle.

Real nice, let's insult the reason we even still have the TMNT today.

Wait! So "Donnie DBERG" is the "reason we still have the TMNT today"?!

*Powder* · 06-26-2012, 03:57 PM

I lol'd. Nah, I mean the OT. People tend to greatly exaggerate the goofyness of it. It had its moments but it wasn't like that most of the time.

LotusBlossom · 06-26-2012, 04:10 PM

Personally, the 1987 series is my favorite incarnation of the Turtles thus far (by far).

In fact, I'm still holding out some (slight) hope that the Nick 'toon may be able to recapture a bit of that "Fred Wolf magic".

*Powder* · 06-26-2012, 04:19 PM

I think it will, there's a lot of potential here.

tmnt transformer · 06-26-2012, 04:25 PM

I wonder if Any of the bosses from dark horizons will be in the show?

Most likely leather head. I'm guessing he'll be bad on the show, cause he attacked the turtles and all.

tmnt transformer · 06-26-2012, 06:03 PM

Leatherhead attacked Mikey in 2k3....

could very likely be.

*sdp* · 06-28-2012, 12:19 AM

I think they look boring and uninspiring and don't look forward to seeing them. Then again they could potentially be awesome but I guess we'll have to wait and see, hopefully their designs are the only thing bad about them and they aren't generic and actually have interesting personalities.

I fully concur. "Bebop" and "Rocksteady" are much more creative names that work. Basing names on how a character looks just seems so juvenile (yes, I know this is a kids show - but so was the 80's toon, and not ALL of the characters had stupid names - at least early on).

Not a biggie, but just my thoughts on it as well.

Fugitoid Jones · 07-02-2012, 08:28 PM

I personally love the design of Fishface. I like the idea of a mutant piranha with mechanical legs so it can get about out of water, as opposed to him just growing legs of his own.
