The art it's self isn't bad to me (you guys know what a big tmnt fan I am so I don't want to hear any of that casual crap) but the cg is poor and the designs do not translate well.
The 2d animatic storyboard that was shown to those of us who got the chance to visit nick this past summer blew me away.
The cg didn't nor does it do anything for me still.
I thought the stuff they showed us was just roughs and it would look better.
The claymation rubber moves they make just doesn't sit well with me.
I have hopes for the show but I've yet to see tmnt translate well from 2d art to cg form.

How exactly does it look during the fight scenes? Like when a Turtle was kicking someone, did the action go well with the animation being seamless?

Sorry for the double post, But I'm just looking at this picture more, and am just now realizing Don's bo is magenta/purple.

Pretty strange choice...

Pretty crazy that finally after two years since the announcement this coming year we'll start seeing a lot more stuff from the new show. I mean we'll probably see toys at Toyfair and we'll probably be getting some new pictures or something before SDCC and in SDCC likely a trailer with toys showing up in the early fall depending when exactly in the fall the show will premier. I'm guessing not too late.

I don't think Don's bo is magenta. I think it's just the lighting in that picture.

I thought that too, but it's in some other pics as well.

The designs themselves are fine. Its how they'll animate and how the fight scenes will look that has me concerned.

Why are you concerned? We really haven't seen any animation at all.

i guess his concern is that we haven't seen any proper animation of the models yet. And bad animation will be very off turning

agreed. with any luck this may turn out to be as good if not better than the new thunder cats toon. that too received A LOT of bashing when pics were leaked. Tcats is now 12 eps into it and it has turned a lot of heads. the art is different, but the quality of the story, fleshed out characters, and great nods to the classic are making some of the die hard old schoolers begin to respect and appreciate it more.

while the turtles look very different as well, i actually like the new "artistic" take on them. defanitely original and in a good way i think. i'm amped to check'em out when the new show airs. i hope, like the Tcats, the turtles are given a well thought out story and plenty of nods to the classic versions too.

Unfortunately there's a difference. The new Thundercats is using actual talent, good acting, genius storyboard and the greatest animation since Avatar the last airbender. This new TMNT is using bland ideas that is trying to appeal to the short sighted youth of today rather then show them that this franchise has a long and storied history and show respect to it's past series and it's using the worst cgi since fanboy and chum chum

Where exactly have you seen proof of "bland ideas trying to appeal to the short sighted youth of today"? I wasn't aware that you worked at Nick Animation Studios & got to see first hand how everything was going, from the plotting to the cgi animation itself. Pretty amazing that you have all the secrets, man! Wow. That's so awesome. If you were basing all of that on absolutely NOTHING, then I wouldn't have any respect for you. But since you're obviously in the know, I'm amazed.
