I guess if you prefer grittier looking turtles, Nick turtles wouldn't be your eye-candy ^_^

And I don't see what's wrong with "cute" turtles, it's a nice change of style after bulkier turtles.

everyone has something they don't like.

I don't really prefer the rough looking designs....so I'm happy with stuff like the Nick turtles and Ross Campbell's turtles ^_^

it always amuses me when a cute hero can kickbutt XD

and everyone loves an adorable winner!!

Yeah, i don't like the cute things so i can't stand the Nick turtles. My favorite has to be Mirage, i like when turtles are allowed to kill, they are ninjas after all, though i think that IDW turtles have the best characters, they are a perfect blend of everything. And they have their own characters with just a little of their personalities sprinkled in, they are fully realized. Nick TMNT are just to one dimensional for me...

hm...I could never get into the mirage comics cause of the way they look XD....and I don't like it when heroes kill.

:3 I think the Nick turtles are booming with personality especially characters that didn't seem to have enough like Leo, but it's cool~ we can agree to disagree

i see no issue with the turtles designs on this cg pilot, in fact theyre some of the best ive seen. they actually each have different shades of green. you dont like them because they have the same body and height? so what? nick was the first to ever change that, and it looks ridiculous having mikey look like a midget standing next to donny.

best way to describe "powerpuff girls style" is those triangular limbs like the forearms are much bigger than the shoulders, big feet, small skinny legs, no fingers, and overall child-like image, which is exactly what the nick show does. none of the previous tmnt incarnations looked that way. but bam as soon as nick hit, the turtles can look however they want. the nick turtles and the bay turtles are worlds apart, like the complete opposite. i can imagine young kids that are fans of the nick series would be scared of seeing how they look in the new movie.

He's a leader, that's whole personality. Same with all of the others turtles, Yeah that's their main trait, but hey can't be just that. Mikey is a goofball, and that's okay. But he needs moments when he's serious, this Mikey's only a bunch of jokes. Same with Donny and Raph, there's nothing to them, they don't feel like real characters. They are as one dimensional as it gets

Yeah, it's cool that i can disagree with you...

Actually the nick turtles have different body tones, and look at people, people are different hieghts. So why can't mutant turtles?

And the worst part those ****ers found their way into the comics...
They don't need to look like their character trait's that's stupid and annoying...

The Nick turtles shares a lot of similarities with the Mirage designs. Same proportions on the arms and legs (save toe design off) Leo got his swords hanging in one side instead of crossing, the belts are without knots like later volume 1.

Spoiler:

Oh yeah, those arms are practically identical...

Don't say the Nick turtles are better than these cause this and this. That's just dumb. It's like Comparing the monkeys from Jumanji to the ones in the new Rise of the planet of the apes. It's different times. Different technology, you can do a trillion times more than you could then. If the same resources were available you could compare.

It's no different from you saying the 5 minute clip of a failed TV pilot is better than the Nick series. You don't have to use every chance to take a dig at it. We get it - you don't like it.

*CyberCubed* · 04-01-2014, 07:06 PM

How many times do I have to say this? The early CG here looks awful but if you want to imagine what a finished one might look like look at the 4th CG movie.

Those designs were somewhat similar.

Oh wow, what a shame this was never given a chance to take off! The animation is blocky, sure, but it seems like it would have looked really nice once it was polished up (seeing as this was just a pilot bit), plus the action motion of the turtles when they fought seemed remarkably fluid. Just from these 5 minutes I'm really liking the overall tone it gives off, and the humor doesn't seem entirely a watered down either. It's really too bad this was never given even an episode or two, I would have loved to have this alongside (not in place of) the 2k3 series. It seems like it would have been a nice blend of 2k3 and the OT.

I get more of a Mirage and 1990 turtles blend out of these...

This pilot is from 2001, so the show would have likely begun in 2002. If that were the case the 4kids series would have never existed, as this show would be airing in its place.

I'm talking in a perfect world, I would have liked to have both these shows instead of just one or the other.

That's exactly what I'm thinking. This would have been such a great show.

How do you know this? You're watching a 5 minute trailer.

How do you know the writing for a 26 episode season would be good?

it really would, you got a nice sense of togetherness, and a more serious vibe from this trailer, wish I could have seen at least one season of this.
