First of all, let's get one thing straight: I'm a guy, not a girl. Secondly, for those of you chastising me for sharing my opinion of the old cartoon, a bit of info for you: I too was a kid at the time of the first season's airing. The initial comparison was made when I WAS a child. In other words, don't tell me that I can't compare the two, because I quite simply . . . did. What appeals to one may not to another, and I have a right to voice my opinion one way or another, which is simply what I did. Let's not turn this into a silly war of words or opposing opinions. These are characters we apparently all care about and feel somewhat strongly about, so let's just agree to disagree and part company as friends.

Of course I prefer Mirage, and understand your opinion completetly, but there is one big thing why it shouldn't be compared. Old TMNT cartoon is for chidlren, Mirage is not. The compariosn isn't fair.

Perhaps not fair, but a comparison nonetheless—as I said before, made first when I, myself, was a kid.

I understand and accept that many people love the old show. Some of the fans of the old show aren't all that crazy about the Mirage series for the very reasons that I fell in love with it. Some like chocolate, some like vanilla, some love all ice cream, while others detest it all. Fair or not, we all make comparisons every day—consciously or otherwise. I'm unfortunately one of those people who is sometimes a little too honest and forthcoming with such comparisons and opinions.

In all fairness, I shouldn't have been quite as harsh as I was in my criticism of the TMNT “universes” that I don't care for. I apologize if I offended anyone or stepped on any toes.

Man, my first day out here, and I am NOT of to a good start! I swear, I'm not a mean guy! Really!

I found Mirage comics about a year back, and instantly came to see why orignal TMNT is the best. It was mainöy because I love the fact that TMNT is more than just children's cartoon. But lest's not take this thread anymore off topic...

Here's my list:

Raphael
Leonardo
Donatello
Michelangelo

Quiller-Bee, please read the Forum Rules. Bashing of the old cartoon is not allowed on these forums, so please avoid posting anything like that in the future so that you don't end up getting warned or banned over it. Thanks for editing your comments out, though.

Opinion or not, that was clearly bashing and is against the rules. Of course everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they're allowed to post it here.

Heeding Jephael's advice, I already did so, Krang. That's precisely why I chose to edit my post. Otherwise, I most likely wouldn't have done so. Admittedly, the person in the wrong here was me. You each have my apologies for my negligence in educating myself in regard to the forum rules. I made the obvious mistake of not reading the rules at all, in addition to assuming that this was a general TMNT discussion forum. It honestly was not my intention to come here—to an old cartoon-based forum—for the sake of causing problems. My opinion of the old cartoon will, in the future, be kept to myself.

Sorry it took solong to explaint he dream, i've boon out of the country for the past week.

I was about 4-5 when I had the dream that turned me off of Leo. In the dream,i had found a magic spell that would bring my favorite toy to life. I used it on my Leo action figure and he became life-sized and sentient. All was fine and dandy, until I tried to play with him and he kwpt wrecking my toys. i finaly got mad at him and sent him out to invite some of my friends to a sleepover, while I got the house ready. For the rest of the dream, strange, scary things kept happening in my house. The one i remember most was that Charlotte's Web was actually happening in my living room and I remeber hearing Wilbur the Pig crying "I don't wanna die! I don't wanna die!" In the movie, Wilbur was always ok, but in my living room, his little piggy head was on a block and the farmer was raising his axe. I ran back to my rom and slammed the door so i wouldn't hear Wilbur. As I turned around, i saw Leo sitting in my bed w/ my older brother, Eric, and his then-girlfriend, Dawn. After all that had happened to me, the last thing I needed was leo messing more stuff up. I snapped my fingers and sent my bro and his girl home, and then turned to Leo. "As for you," I said, rolling up my sleeves and getting my magic ready. "Back to a toy you go!"

I woke up, terrified, and threw my leo action figure, which had been tucked into my pillowcase, and threw it across the room, never to play with it again.

Looking back, it's kinda weird that the dream of a 5 year old would turn her off a specific character for the rest of her life, but take into account that I was a small child with a MASSIVE imagination. While I have never out-right hated Leo, he's been on the bottom of my list ever since. I liked the Movie Leo and the new one, but the old cartoon stuck me as a whimp. But the new incarnation is giving me more and more reasons to move him up a notch.

They all have their distinct qualities.

However:

Don's the best. *looks at Roseangelo*

Then its Mike-Leo-Raph. You, know, Don's brothers?

Well, I am a die-hard Mikey fan. He has just been my favorite character througout the whole time period I have known about the series. He got me to love pizza, which has been my favorite food since I was 3 or 4...heh.

However, Corey Feldman as Donnie kicked... He was great.


Mike - Funny, pure comedy... Nunchukos kick!
Don - Can be funny, but is smart... He gave me my inner-geek.
Raph - Baddass, is his own boss. You have to respect that.
Leo - Awesome leader

I like the old show more, simply because of the change in characters... Like Shredder having a dojo in New York, April not being a newscasters, and not knowing Urma... I can talk more if anyone cares...Probably not.

I will make a TMNT section on my site soon enough.

WHOA!!! Leonumba1turtle!!! Avy is a tad big there...anyway my picks

Don-I've been able to "relate" to him the best,plus im the best with his weapon.
Mikey-His one liners are classics,even to this day.
Raph-Sai's are cool,and he's the hot head.
Leo-Meh,never connected to him and he seems up tight,but every group needs a leader and he does the job damn good. (Also the Inventor/Artist he's named after made some preety sweet stuff )
