I'm pretty sure Peter Laird would've nixed that idea in a New York minute!

I know, but its a shame. Its essentially the same character, another robot Turtle. Why bother giving it a new name when they can make it an established character?

They didn't give it a name at all, and to be honest it didn't need one. It was really just a throwaway gag IMO.

It didn't have a name in the show, but its toy and its appearance in the videogame on PS2/Gamecube did.

Definitely "It came from the depths." I've watched all debut leather head episodes but nothing compares to the feeling I got when watching the nick version.I just felt it was very well done, I might even say it's my favorite episode so far!:O

I voted for " Leatherhead - Terror of the Swamps (Original cartoon) ". simply because i love how they gave him this australian outback style with strange and awesome slang! That is VERY original and i don't know about any other villian who uses this style. He is a frighten villian if you ask me.

But of course i like to see Leatherhead more as a buddy of the turtles. But classic kicks the first appereances all.

PS: I love crocs/gators

With both the great introduction of Leatherhead already being an enemy to Kraang, it makes you wonder whether Leatherhead will either be saved or have the Kraang control him to destroy the Turtles. It also gave Michelangelo's biggest character development of the series so far and having a "power cell" is a nice OT throwback involving Kra(a)ng stealing a power source. I also like this Leatherhead's voice the most. Jim Cummings did a good job with the Cajun accent, but this definitely had the most "alligator sounding" tone to it. It also had the best climax of the three with the three. "What a Croc" was the second best Leatherhead debut; it was much more of a "be careful with a stranger" plot since this Leatherhead was just a scientist with the Utroms, but having Baxter defeat the Turtles in battle along with the final collapse of the old lair is also notable. The OT debut isn't a bad episode to itself, but the "fountain of youth" plot is a bit silly, and contains typical OT goofiness.

The OT Leatherhead ep also has a funny moment when Shredder goes in the fountain of youth and turns back to childhood by the end of the episode.
