I'm not sure I'll be getting the lost season considering I already got it bootlegged. But I'm still getting the season RE-releases. Thanks 4kids for making a bootlegger out of me(and I'm sure quite a few other fans for changing the direction of the show without finishing the original direction)

Most of the dvd covers sucj but thats actually a pretty sweet cover.

*VaughnMichael* · 02-28-2008, 02:47 PM

Man that's so freaking nice!! I'm really loving the covers to these season sets!
I wonder who the artist behind them is?

The Lost Season art looks sweet.

Exactly, and while I'm not a saint when it comes to this, I've realized just to let things roll on this site TMNT fans B1tch about almost everything thats placed infront of them, while allof things we get are crap, not everything is and they still complain.
I wish the old toon set coverd even came close to being this golden.

That particular cover art is by Emilio Lopez. That is not actually the finished version! He's awesome. He has also worked on a number of Chaotic trading cards.

His blog is here: http://e-mannland.blogspot.com/

As for the other covers:

Fast Forward Pt.1 - Khary Randolph

Fast Forward Pt.2 - Adrian Barrios with colors by Jimmy Tran

TMNT Season 1 Pt.1 - Khary Randolph

TMNT Season 1 Pt.2 - Roughs by Ed Nebres, Inked by Emilio Lopez and Colors by Jimmy Tran

Season 2 Pt.1 - Adrian Barrios, Inked by Emilio Lopez and colors by Jimmy Tran

Adrian is character designer on the show. Ed, a storyboarder. Emilio and Jimmy are both colorists. Khary is freelance but does a ton of stuff for TMNT as well as Chaotic. Don't let titles fool you though everyone seems to do a bit of something else around here!

I don't like them as much because they don't look like the show, but at least they're doing something which is nice. For me a well done clip art cover is usually good enough.

I like Adrians designs the best. I hope hes used for future sets.

Ah yes, Steve Murphy brought him up before I just wasn't aware thanks for the quick answer though.
He really is a talented artist, it's nice to see some care finally being put into a turtles product, people would really like to see interviews and behind the scenes stuff though.

Very nice stuff, I have to say though the show is lacking a certain creative charm that the 80's and 90's turtles had, I'm mostly talking about the design of mutants and aliens whenever we see them are pretty lame.
I'm aware that 4kids & Playmates wanted to have some old school characters but Peter Laird keeps turning anything interesting and creative down.
Quite frankly that's why I've enjoyed Fast Forward more than anything else, the story's may be a bit watered down compared to past season but it sure is a heck of allot more creative then anything I've seen before that in the 2k3 series.
Thanks again your prompt replies are very much appreciated here

I've enjoyed his artwork, and loved his battle nexus art work for the dvd.
I also he did the artwork for the Fast Forward Box art for Playmates toys yes? Loved that also, I really miss the days when each toy had artwork of it's own on the front of the box, that sure would stand out in todays action figure market.

o.o Does this confirm Space Usagi as still appearing?

*gobo* · 02-29-2008, 01:36 AM

I'm not diggin' that art. It's not 'bad', it just doesn't grab my attention... Of course, I guess my perceptions may change when my pupil-dilation wears off. It never affected me this much or for this long before. >_<

*Spitfire* · 02-29-2008, 06:49 AM

It fits the series I think it's fine.

Agreed about the old school DVD covers. Clip art and style guide pretty much ruled the releases. I did like the Pizza cover one though. And I give'em credit for trying to get Ryan Brown on board with the latest one (shame they didn't. It's not that good). But this really looks explosive. Hey. I might just buy a second DVD and frame the art. Or find a way to make a poster of it or something.

X · 02-29-2008, 08:57 AM

I love the art, just as I love the art from the new season releases...

HOWEVER! There is one thing about it, that is inconsitant with season 1, parts 1&2, and season 2 part 1, which I hope someone reading here that is involved can suggest. It is missing the line at the bottom stating what season it is (should be labled season 5, or at least have the black line at the bottom.) Also missing, is the box in the top left corner stating 2 discs, 12 or 13 episodes.

I also hope it has a black spine, like the new season releases, so it will look awesome when bookshelfed after all the releases are out.

If you (TMNT4kids,) or someone else reading this could make sure those make it, this is top notch work yet again. I know it sounds like a minor nitpick, which it is, but these consistancies, would make the whole collection look kick butt.

When my movies come out on DVD, and if they are sequels, their spines are going to match as best as possible for those who love showing off their bookshelf collection of movies.

*VaughnMichael* · 02-29-2008, 01:46 PM

X,
They said it wasn't the finished art so I don't think you have anythign to worry about.

TMNT fans B1tch and moan because they know 4kids/foxbox could have gotten things right the first time when they released the dvds. They have every reason to be unhappy now that they have to double-spend their hard earned money for the new re-releases. Who would be happy if almost everything placed in front of them was crap? But at least they are doing things right this time...although they COULD have released an entire season together.

Ummmm yeah I'm not talking just 4kids and cartoons or even dvd's.
I'm talking everything here, allot of fans complain about everything, I think just for the sake of complaining.
