Well you have to factor in that there are different incarnations of the character too: so the Mirage one might have different stats then the old toon one and so on. Although on the official site, the 2003 toon April has the same stats as whatever April it was supposed to be before they slapped new toon April on there.

Although the toy stat cards seemed to vary quite a bit. She started at 115 (already light) and went down to 99.9 with her pad and pencil. Although that could be a Vicki Vale thing (she's a little more than 108 according to Batman).

I do not want to see an anorexic April. There's nothing sexy about a pencil. And it is no fun dealing with a relative that has anorexia and is obsessed with other people's weight.

Hey, in 2k3 they gave different weights for Splinter at two different points. I would chuck it to inconsistent human errors.

I'm gonna say that she's about 120 pounds maybe 5 foot 7, cuz she seems to be in pretty good shape. And bone and muscle mass in women is lnot as heavy than men so it seems reasonable that she weighs about that much. As for the older toon April I think she was just bullemic or something. I really didn't like her all that much. She just annoyed me I mean man, how many times was she kidnapped throughout the show?

I seriously don't get it. I mean, it was just some friggin' stats. There was no harm in giving her a normal healthy weight, so she doesn't seem anorexic. With her boobs and her height in the OT, I'd think she should be, like, 130 pounds or so! The OT was not exactly the best show for little girls to watch, unless they were like me and only watched it for the Turtles and totally ignored April's and Irma's valley girl talk and weight/dating issues.

It would have helped if April showed some growth over the series. Maybe she starts off as the stereotypical valley girlish type, but as time goes on she learns to kick some butt and fend for herself a little more. IMO in the Next Mutation, if they wanted a strong female, they should have had an April that had learned to fend for herself.

I don't get why they didn't give her normal stats either, unless they were doing the Vicki Vale thing and thought "hurr a woman wouldn't give their real weight am I right guys?". I'd estimate the 130s as well Rooish, because she was always drawn rather buxom in the OT.

I know someone who is 5'6", has a small to medium frame, and is 120lb. She's clearly underweight and everyone agrees she's "too skinny".

I'm 5'5" and in the 130s. I can climb up to the 140s and still not be overweight. I have a rather large frame and hourglass figure and a lot of muscle- but even at the highest I still wear a one-digit size.

So I think April could have been giver a somewhat higher weight and still have the killer figure she has.

Yeah, it's surprising how much some people can weigh and not be overweight ... I'm 5'0'', so I'm pretty damn short. I guess I'm muscular for a girl, but as far as body fat goes, I'm on the medium/slim side (amongst normal people, not Hollywood) and I'm 130 pounds! I really don't get where the weight is coming from, but I guess maybe I'm genuinely big-boned?

So my point was, April can stand to gain some weight. They never drew her as skinny; she was curvy. Those hip bones weigh a lot.

I liked the way old toon April was drawn. She was slender but not skinny. She actually had a very nice figure. Vey curvy. You want to see a unhealthy looking skinny April O'Niel? Check out the CGI movie. She is just too with no curves what so ever

Seconded. CGI April looked like she needed to hang out at the pizza parlors with the TMNT to fatten up a bit.

April's real stats aren't ever going to be revealied, considering all the information is coming from all different references, and there's no 1 April to focus on.

We could find out her height in comparison to other characters, but we don't know their height for the most part, except for the turtles are about 5 foot, so she's taller than that at least.

Her age varies every year..... but late 20s by the general look of her and from the old toon reference of 28.

Her weight? She's obviously slender, so it can't be too high, but her height and bust will add to that....... although we don't know either, but judging on size alone, probably about 135lbs.

Call me crazy, but I spent this day calculating all of April O'Neil's various features in the OT. This is what I approximately found:

DISTRESSED DAMSELS: 79
TOTAL TV NEWS REPORTS: 197 (just over 1 an episode) (Only 2 in Season 8 and 1 in Season 9 and none at all in Season 10)
TIMES SHE SAYS "APRIL O'NEIL": 124 (but only once per season for each of the red sky seasons)
TIMES APRIL SAYS SOME VARIATION OF "PUT ME DOWN/LET ME GO/LET GO OF ME": 28
TURTLECOM USES: 175 (33 total for Red Sky which was alot for that era)
APPEARANCES IN THE CHANNEL 6 BUILDING: 124 (including 6 appearances of the smaller building in the second, third, and fourth episodes of Season 8
APPEARANCES OF THE CHANNEL 6 NEWS VAN: 88
APPEARANCES OF THE DODGE VIPER (RED SKY): 9 (4 times in Season 8, twice in Season 9, three times in Season 10)
APPEARANCES OF THE CHANNEL 6 NEWS CYCLE: 9
APPEARANCES OF THE CHANNEL 6 NEWS COPTER: 6

Maybe it's the yellow jumpsuit, but earlier in the show she seemed to be in the 130-135 range.

That bothered me so much in the 2007 movie. The exaggerated designs of the humans in that movie bothered me overall: the men were all bulky with super tiny waists and legs, and the women's heads were too big for their stick bodies.

115 lbs ot April looked like she had 45lbs in her chest alone. Of course I'm not complaining just saying.
