April O'Neil, Ushering Us Into Manhood - Page 2

Jelly Bean · 01-24-2009, 12:13 AM

gee, there's enough ass shots of 80's April for you to choose from Ryona!

um...wow. How is it cartoons back then got away with realistic porptioned characters? You would never see a female character now adays with rounded breasts that actually shift with movement...normally they are all sharp and pointy looking now. o.O

lol.

I never saw April as a mother figure. Though I was too young to notice that she was one beautiful babe in a yellow jumpsuit. When I first saw an OT ep as an adult, I explained saying, "Woah! I didn't realized that April is this curvy."

I was pretty much born in puberty, but yeah, I'd have to say 80s toon April was one of the best things to come out of any 80s toon. That's my definitive April. Mary and I crack up a lot watching the old show (for lotsa reasons, duh), but yeah, cartoons can't get away with drawing chicks that hot anymore it seems. Major bummer, dude.

Oh, and thx all for those posted pics.

And Cleo was indeed hardcore. There was a lot more innuendo between Cleo and RiffRaff than I remembered there being. When I got the Heathcliff toons on DVD I was like, "since when was Cleo such a slut?"

Can honestly say I've never gotten turned on, aroused, or sprung on any cartoon or comic book character.

But I'm as big of a fan of well-drawn women as anyone.

To each their own.

Dr. Ruth used to say "no fantasy is bad unless someone gets hurt" after all...

Me? I fantasize about a world when Kevin Nash actually has working knees, dyes his hair, and doesn't have to job.

So I guess what I'm saying is that everybody's a little "off" to a point...

*Mr._Mutant_Man* · 01-24-2009, 04:05 PM

That picture with April holding the microphone isn't too bad. I guess the word I would use for it is "cute", because I can't think of a better one.

Well if that's wrong, I don't want to be right.

Ladies and Gentlemen....who am I kidding....

Fellow Dudes, I give you the next actress to portray April O'neil....only because she looks pretty good in a jumpsuit:

Jojo.

What is she, like 12?

Really does look good in a jump suit though.

PedoBears about to strike.

To quote Genshiken, "If someone cannot get turned on about such images, it suggests that there is something defective about them!"

*Sage Ninja* · 01-29-2009, 05:13 PM

don't ask me why but some how I just find April so pretty in this picture.

not to mention her "miss attitude" look right here with her arms folded over her chest.

April's unsure

and lets not forget April famous tyed up scene in the first episode, where Michaelangelo pulls her ropes off:

*Candy Kappa* · 01-29-2009, 05:17 PM

can you blame the animators to draw her tied up so often? XD

~~Cropsy~~ · 01-29-2009, 06:01 PM

Damn straight man, she was one of my animated crushes back in the 80's along with Adora from She-Ra, Cheetara from Thundercats, Glimmer from She-Ra, Scarlett from G.I. Joe, Catra from She-Ra, Teela from He-Man, Frosta from She-Ra, Mermista from She-Ra, Calla from Gummi Bears, Aurora from Sleeping Beauty (I saw the 1987 re-issue of this movie), Nightshade from COPS, Ariel from The Little Mermaid, Sorceress from He-Man, and Cleo from "Heathcliff".

ow, my eyes. Someone should really put that girl in spoiler tags she's an eye sore.

Golden ShredHead · 01-30-2009, 05:58 PM

In the red sky seasons, I wonder why she tried distancing herself from the turtles. They're her friends, aren't they?

Jelly Bean · 02-01-2009, 12:13 AM

how come April looks so diffrent in season one than she does from the rest of series?

I mean these screen caps of her from season look...I don't know diffrent than how she look in other seasons

*Coola Yagami* · 02-01-2009, 12:26 AM

Cause season 1 was drawn alot more detailed and stuff, which also goes for April. I mean, c'mon, compare bad-ass shiny metal shredder with long blades, to.... white masked shredder with puny blades for the rest of the series...
