Yeah, I love the costumes in the first one, they're the best, and then the ones in the second are ok, I don't like their facial expressions though, but I just hate the costumes in the third one. Horrendous, someone said.

You know what would have made TMNT III a lot better? If they had included Usagi Yojimbo. He is an intersting character, definately well known in the TMNT world, and most of all, he would fit perfectly in medieval Japan. Just have to make a few plot twists to bring him into the movie. Having him in the "enemy who later becomes friend" role would have given the movie more merit in the long run.

In regards to Jim Henson:

Yes, Jim Henson's Creature Shop did create both the suits and Splinter for the first two movies, and he died just after production of the second, so there is a dedication to him in the credits of the second movie.

Which is why Kevin Clash was splinter, it was one of his first gigs after joining the Henson team. After Henson's death, the company was taken over by his Son.

Something I later found out, after watching a biography of Jim Henson, was that he is responsible for Seasamie Street...I forget that....because I usually think of the Muppets and Kermit and those cute Fraggles.

But only Henson---the creator of the art of Puppetiers could have had a hand in the Turtles. Seriously.

(did you know the origional Kermit puppet was made from a coat? Hence the treditional wooley look!)

i first saw the movie by ordering a VHS of it back around last Winter.

Yes the costumes do look different in all. The TMNT look more smoothier.

for splinter, OK but i don't see why there was a reason to make him 75% different. The splinter puppet from the previous 2 were good. But some reason this one's face is smaller than the previous 2 and his hair was more shaggier. Doesn't bother me much but the whole idea of the 3rd one was something else.

for me the 3rd was good, not the everyone's favorite but but I still like it.

maybe it should of had a plot in N.Y. involving mutant animals like Leatherhead or some other charater that's Mutant animal.

Oh well, I'm going to get the 2nd & 3rd Movie on DVD that way I can have all 3 movies on DVD.

Well anyway all 3 movies are my favorite.

Since the 3rd one does shows how boring it can be for the TMNT with no villians running around in N.Y. Even i would conplain like Raph from doing the same Morning routine over and over again.

I wounder how many of the Japenese have family relation with Oroku Saki?

And today I'm a bigger fan than I was years ago. I have all 3 TMNT Movies, current Toon, and old school Toon on DVD.
