It doesn't. All I said is that these were likely designed as toy placements.

Heck, the show itself is a glorified toy ad with an intricate plot. Heck, most American produced shows since the 80's were nothing more than advertisements for the toy line.

And that doesn't mean they're bad. If anyone thought I was berrating the show for it, all I need say is that I'm a fan of Transformers and Beast Wars.

[Jester]

Nah, I didn't take it as such. Just pointing out that that's the way the...um...cookie crumbles, since I couldn't modify the analogy for action figures.

[Ninjinister]

Oh, I like cookies.

[Spitfire]

I like them myself. They look fine in action. If they were for a toy ad they'd have the toys out already...

[Eiko]

they look pretty cool

Seriously, Donny built a hovercraft by the second episode. Nothing so far has been a stretch of the internal logic layed down in the first few seasons.

Well they used to be better at covering up how Don could do all this stuff without money. Like showing them actaully get something like an armored car then modding into the battle shell or giving some piss poor explanation of its left over tech from the Utrom or the Triceraton invasion and that one was pretty good since the Triceraton's left there crap everywhere. So I can understand people's complaints. I mean Don pretty much being able to make a dumpster with antigrav hover jump and portal to Tron world is overdoing it a bit more then they did the last few seasons.

As for Cyber World armor I dont mind it the Extreme sports turtle suits look far stupider. I'm still worried there going to put any and every crappy Playmate variant into this show.

Well, now that Don's seen the future, he has new ideas. I'm sure he's poked around inside every piece of future tech he saw, too. Including the Hover Shell.

But that doesn't change the fact that he'd already built a fully functional hovercraft by the second episode. No Triceraton tech required.

And we haven't seen how Don gets the whole VR Troopers thing set up yet, so if anybody's complaining about that, they don't really have the ground do do so just yet.

[Aneras713]

Can't they ever just use Zandramon's private space crusier that they, ahem, "borrowed" in season 3?

Donny could at least install something that makes it invisible!

Feh! Just be glad this hasn't been made into a series yet:



Can you see that? A freak accident leaves the Turtles and April hugely overweight. The turtles become Sumos, and April holes out in her house until she's "Cute" again.

Granted his bandana looks red on the box, but why are he and raph classic red while Leo and Don have their cartoon headbands?

And when does spinning hair qualify as sumo action?

Wait, since when do the Ninja Turtles have hair?

Dammit, every time I look at that thing, something about it perplexes me.

...

Why is cowabunga spelled with a "K"?

Dammit, why can't I stop looking at it?

It may have come severial years later but I'm pretty sure these had been made to go with the 1991 Tattoo action figure.

Again, Super human Samurai Syber Squad or whatever the hell it is. That's what these turtles are lol

I was following Tooth's lead, but indeed you are indeed correct Prof. Cure.
