It's the end of the world as we know it.

But, I feel fine.

So given that, I don't see how anybody would care what Michelangelo uses just as long as we get more of that sweet Turtle action amirite??

Are you related to Tupper? O_o

Sack of moist pine cones....brilliant.

I chose option two because it's not the end of the world if Mikey doesn't use the nunchucks. Plus, according to Alex, Mikey more than likely will use the 'chucks. So don't get your panties in a bunch, guys. I'd rather see this than no Turtles at all.

I mean didn't the Mirage turtles actually used guns at some point? And also Mikey was forced to use a grappling hook in the OT, he got tonfas in TNM, so if he's eyeing another weapon then its OK.

Plus there's this.

I guess we should be glad they never had a tv series then.

Best. Answer. Ever.

Wouldn't the plural of spatula be spatuli? Pronounced spatul-eye of course.

Doesn't really bother me either way, if Mikey uses 'chucks or not.

*Samhain* · 03-08-2011, 04:34 PM

I am bothered a bit but Im not feeling the preview art anyways so I could care less what direction this whole thing goes. Mike with chucks or not, is not gonna make a difference. Just doesnt make any sense not to give him them.

dude, this made me LOL for like a minute easy. Someone needs to sig this.

as for the topic at hand...cry me a f*cking river. So what. Maybe the show might actually create an intersting story arc for Mike involving the weapon issue, maybe he could start off with chuckes and for whatever reason decides to switch to a different weapon. Wouldn't that be nice instead of the usual story fare he is given writing wise? But then I could be reading to much into this...

*Luzmagica* · 03-08-2011, 11:50 PM

Nunchucks! Nunchucks! Nunchucks! .....

If they are possible go with them!

Time Mistress · 03-09-2011, 09:19 AM

Yeah, no nunchucks is disapointing, but kusurigama is awesome and still a flexible weapon which is the catagory Mike is a master of so it works for me.

Sword Slicin' Leo · 03-09-2011, 10:09 AM

I don't know if i will be angry, but definatly won't like it.

No really. It's a big flipping issue that a weapon is different to you?

*sdp* · 03-09-2011, 12:15 PM

Its his signature/trademark weapon, you can bet people will be upset the same way people would be if Deadpool did not have his mask/couldn't talk, Batman had rubber nipples, Han shot first, Godzilla looked like T-Rex from Jurassic Park, The Last airbender cast white leading roles etc, oh wait.... How is this any different? I'm surprised by the lack of outrage when we didn't know the nunchucks were safe which we do now.

*Candy Kappa* · 03-09-2011, 12:25 PM

For me, The Nunchucks are not what makes Mikey, Mikey. It's the weapon of choice through the major incarnations, yes. But never defining his character.

he still got a chain weapon, and it's a weapon that is associated with Ninja

*Koi* · 03-09-2011, 12:28 PM

I have been thinking the same damn thing Stryker. It is super dumb to even care that the weapon was changed. It isn't even going to be changed according to some posts.

Sometimes I despise fanboys and gals.

I think their new battle cry should be:

"TALLY-HO! NINJA ACTION, HERE WE GO!"

or

"THE LEAN GREEN TEAM IS KEEN AND MEAN!!!"

or perhaps

"DO YOU KISS YOUR MOTHER WITH THAT MOUTH??!"

or maybe they'll go with product placement for the new show.

"WHADAYA GONNA PICK? HOT POCKETS!!"
