How long before she dons Daddy's helmet, ya think?

*Shark_Blade* · 11-19-2013, 02:35 AM

End of Season 3 I think. But then I don't want Shredder to be dead, it'll be dull like any other tmnt universe without a Shredder.

Wait, maybe they can make him presumed dead. Ciro, take notes! (if you plan to kill him by any chance..)

*BabyTurtles* · 11-19-2013, 03:07 AM

Karai looked really pretty in that episode....or the animation just got better

*Eiko* · 11-19-2013, 04:45 AM

I am going to say Karai, still cant get use to her redesign.

Vivi · 11-19-2013, 04:59 AM

There are a few designs I don't love, (and a few I don't mind), but the Rat King still looks like a zombie from Phantom of the Opera.

I'm fine with pretty much all of the redesigns. But one thing that does bother me is the size of Metal Head. I would have preferred him to be the same size as one of the Turtles, But it's not really not that big of deal.

*drgon78* · 11-19-2013, 05:26 AM

I like all of those mentioned.

Oooh yeah. That I want to see. They could borrow from City at War and have factions of the Foot split off, not wanting to follow under her rule.

Aw, man. That's what I like about Metalhead the most. I was actually disappointed when the toy wasn't mini-sized.

It's a shame since when her design was first released I was ready to give her a chance and I tried to ignore all the naysayers, after all, she could have looked a lot better in motion. Turns out I was wrong. There is absolutely nothing the least bit appealing about her face or her hair and her armor leaves a bit to be desired as well. I really don't care if she has short hair (2k7 Karai had short hair and she was very pretty), or even if they wanted to add in that weird yellow bit to spice her up, but the design they went for her...those sideburns, her bangs...totally missed the mark. When I imagine Karai I always picture an extremely beautiful woman-not a girl next door, not a plain jane, not an 'ugly pretty' type of girl, but straight up, stereotypically beautiful. And this design is just hideous.

Splinter is weird for me. Actual design wise I think he looks rather nice (except for his creepy human hands)...he just doesn't feel like Splinter. Still, since his basic design is pretty appealing, then my vote goes to Karai.

I disagree. It took me awhile but now I love Karai's design. Now that she's younger, her crazy make up and ridiculous bowl cut actually work because they show how intimidating she can be. Like Shark Blade said, she looked effing majestic on Shredder's throne in the last episode. Classically pretty is boring.

DarkLightDragon · 11-19-2013, 10:52 AM

I'm still pretty "meh" on Karai's design as well.

and Shredder's is just so bad it's funny.

I didn't say she had to look interesting, her character and personality should more than make up for that (I think I even described her as "stereotypically beautiful"...I'm not looking for uniqueness in design when it comes to Karai). And as hilarious as the previous Lion King gif was, I don't think I should have to look hard in order to find beauty in Karai's design. It's not just her clothes and make-up, her actual facial dimensions just aren't very appealing either. While I do appreciate that her eyes are smaller and not as freakishly large as April's, it's not enough to make me think-Wow, now THAT'S a beautiful girl. Personally, I love the design of Casey, so I know the animators of this show KNOW how to create an actual human looking person, Karai just isn't it. For me anyway.

FoxZerro · 11-19-2013, 11:43 AM

Traag, because I was thinking about it yesterday and he's more of a monster than a Rock Warrior. Plus I have always wanted to have an army of Rock Warrior toys and if he were smaller he could have done nicely

I thought I was the only one who didn't like the new Rat King!

I do happen to really like the new Karai though.

ChaoticGood · 11-19-2013, 02:00 PM

I voted for the Technodrome (underwhelming, but I don't hate it), but my real answer is Wingnut. Everything else is really pretty cool.

How can "zombie from Phantom of the Opera" go wrong? I like how this dude is from out of my nightmares! He's like Freddy Krueger.

I voted for the golem thing cuz . . . it's rock.

So you're saying he looks like a "reanimated" corpse....

I don't mind the look of Karai, but why are they sitting in the dark? Her first order of business should be getting someone to switch on a light.

I don't know what to say except...the phantom seems like a flasher. With a mummy, you know you're going to get a strip tease at some point.

Oh, you.

*Papenbrook* · 11-19-2013, 06:17 PM

I just want to say something.

In my opinion, I don't really like Casey Jones's design. He looks like a mixture of a goth, a punk, and a seven year old. He could really use a better design.
I also don't like Fishface's design. His body looks uneven and his head is too huge.
