Least favorite: Wingnut

*Coola Yagami* · 08-09-2004, 12:25 AM

Usagi Yojimbo, though not particulary a TMNT character, but he appeared in both series, is another fave of mine. I haven't seen him in the new show yet, but I did like both of his apearances in the old show. He brought in some cool swordmoves that even Leonardo didn't show off.

I'm also a fan of classic Shredder, Bebop and Rocksteady. They all ha good jokes, plus the episodes where the Shredder would actually seriously fight against the TMNT and/or Splinter were always the best.

I'm still undecided on my opinion of the new Shredder. He seems bad-ass, but I'll have to wait until his appearance as an Ultrom.

Foxy Boy · 08-09-2004, 08:49 PM

Favourite: Without a doubt, Leatherhead. Won't go into detail on why.
Least Favourite: Krang's Brain. One of the main villians, I know, but the shrill voice and his ugly appearance just kind of seemed close to disgusting.

Doppleganger · 08-09-2004, 09:16 PM

Old show fave: Leonardo. He was the serious leader, though not as much as the new toon.

Old show least fave: The mobster they were pretty stupid and pointless, plus April's boss and male co-worker (Vernon?).

New school faves: I can't pick one. The Triceratons but I'm leaning towards Zog and Traximus. Leatherhead too. But if I had to pick...Traximus.

New school least fave: Garbageman because he was disgusting

and maybe a little of new school Leo. I don't know but I think they've powered him up way too much, made him way too important, and way too skillful. Old school Leo seemed more balanced out and he actually had a sense of humor. This incarnation is like Cyclops from X-men.

He's kind of stern and wooden.

Foxy Boy · 08-09-2004, 09:24 PM

By the way, I haven't seen much of the new cartoon, since what I saw of it was not as good to me as the old. What do the new incarnations of all the villians look likem like Rock Steady and Bebop and Leatherhead and Super Krang?

*Spitfire* · 08-09-2004, 09:25 PM

Leatherhead isnt a villian....only in the old show
Anyways out of you lsit only Leatherhead is in the new show because the others werent in the orgnial comics

Foxy Boy · 08-09-2004, 09:27 PM

Ah. Okay.

Glad Krang isn't in the new one. As mentioned before, He was just annoying.

Albrecht · 08-10-2004, 09:58 AM

Splinter is my favorite.

And I HATE those frikkin nuetrinos (in particular zach) and mikeys annoying and he pukes too much.

*DrSpengler* · 08-10-2004, 03:30 PM

Just wanted to have 3 "warned" members post in a row.

On topic, I never liked April in any form. She was constantly in the old show, every episode. It got irritating. In the new show she's pretty bland. I just don't find her character interesting in the least.

And the Channel 6 people go without saying. I never liked them, even when I was a kid.

FALLEN ELDOR · 08-10-2004, 07:00 PM

Slash, the toy, not the cartoon version. I really want an update of him as a psycho criminal from an alternate reality, he could be Ralph's doppleganger and lead the teenage mutant ninja criminals

I really, really, really hate Krang wannabe Shredder Utrom thing

I miss Saki

"Now I will finish what I began with your ear!"

Shred Head · 08-13-2004, 03:24 AM

I'll leave out the core characters in my like part since its kida easy for me to put up those since there in or almost in every version of the Turtles and I would like to give credit to the lesser known characters. But really though Micky and Shredder are still my fav out of everything.

Fav: Armaggonthis guy was one of the coolest villains ever. I cant remember much of his backs tory now since its been years since I read the Future Shark Trilogy. But I remeber I loved to play as him in Tornament fighters and he is still one of the coolest looking Mutants ever sadly I dont think the guy ever got a toy.

Hounarable mentions:
Slash
Krang
The Mutanimals
Leatherhead (New show and Archie version)
Ninjara
Savanti Romero
Karai

Hated: Venus De Milo I couldn't stand her I feel the only Turtles that should be part of the group are the four brothers no one else. Adding a girl just ruined it for me and I thought it was one of the stupidest ideas ever. Not to metnion I felt like she was trying to takeing April's place in the Turtles family and that just made me hate her even more. Also I hated that stpud shinobi magic and they gave her a color one Turtle already had why make light blue? If they were going to have one wear the same color as antehr they should have just all have worn red.

Dishounarable mentions:
Lord Dregg: Really what was the point of getting rid of Krang if the nect thing you make is anther overlord from Dimsion X but isn't even half as interesting. Really whats the point of replaceing the main villains with the same thing but duller.

Oz or whatever that Mr. Mxziplic ripoff with the Peewee herman voice was called.

majesty329 · 08-13-2004, 06:43 AM

I'm just going to name my least favorite characters:

Vernon
Burne Thompson
The mob bosses like Pinky McFingers and Mad Dog
Irma
Dregg
Barney Stockman
Venus
Zack

Gremlin · 08-13-2004, 07:03 AM

Hmm, I'll have to be the same character on both for me.

Slash

The Archie one was a real good written psycho that (on rare occasions) could be resonable. A perfect guy to throw in when you needed to burn a few pages on someone slicing bodies to pieces

The old toons two versions of the guy must something of the worst I've ever seen in a cartoon. first as the archie psycho, only with no violence and ten times stupider. then the psycho again, but still without violence and a bad attempt to make him intelligent

*Coola Yagami* · 08-13-2004, 08:39 PM

thanks alot guys, the results will be shown in my latest TMNT comic issue.

*Kazari* · 08-13-2004, 09:40 PM

My least favorite character from the old show was Irma! I really didn't like how she whined all the time and I couldn't stand Zach either! LOL

Leonarda · 08-14-2004, 12:27 AM

my least fav would have to be the mutant frogs form the old show and fav would be Leo. just cause

08-14-2004, 05:04 AM

My all round most favorite character is Leonardo! He's just so damn awesome!

Other characters I really like are:

Shredder

the other three turtles

April

Casey

Splinter (though I wish they would go deeper into his character and make him more important and interesting in the series).

Tatsu (He is perhaps the coolest assistant Shredder has ever had)

Krang

Rocksteady & Bebop

Neutrinos

Karai

Usagi Yojimbo (though he isn't a TMNT character he's made plenty appearences with the TMNT through out the years)

Tokka & Rahzar

Characters I don't like are:

Lord Dregg

Mobsters from Dimention X

Super mutant versions of the turtles (I didn't see the point. They got physicaly stronger but more clumsy, and they just looked ugly and kinda stupid)

Garbage man

Justice Force (Ugh! Why the shell were they put into the new series!?! I didn't like them back then when I read the comic, and I still don't like them now!
I was hoping that the new series wouldn't have any corny super heroric men in tacky spandex. If I wanted to watch a bunch of goofs run around in tights, I would have watched "Super Friends" instead.
The Justice Force is just a silly concept that shouldn't be put in a serious animation like TMNT.

heat84 · 08-14-2004, 05:56 AM

I've only seen the old show and I hated Dregg. I only saw a few Dregg episodes though. How could you possibly replace Shredder? At least kill him instead of just not having him in the cartoon anymore.

I haven't seen the new show but I've heard bad things about so I don't know if I wanna see it. I'm 27 and was in high school and middle school when the old show was on. Based on what I.ve heard I can't imagine anybody from my generation liking the new show. I guess thats kind of off topic. Sorry. Oh yeah I don't have any particular favorite. I tried to think of one.

Someone in this thread hates letherhead. You gotta be kidding me!

08-14-2004, 06:04 AM

Hmmm.... well, I don't think you should be so quick to judge just because it's a new series. If you like the old Mirage Studios TMNT comics than you would definetly like the new series. It's very close to the Mirage TMNT.
Well, I'm 23 and I love the new series! This is coming from someone who grew up watching the old series! To be honest, both series are are great in their own ways. Give it a shot.

*Kazari* · 08-14-2004, 07:53 AM

Um dude I am 22 and I LOVE the new show
