I dont se how he looks elderly in anyway, As for the tech gear well really if don if don could carry around all his tech stuff would he not if he found a way? Plus i doubt he will have it the whole time. The glasses as said before will likely not be worn the whole time and think about Don's gap in the Nick series people hatted that just for the same reasons but it adds to his character and is a neat trait to have hopefully the glasses will add the same thing

I like him to remind me of Mikey just everything to me screams mikey I can see him goofing around with his nunchaku.

To be honest though there is quite a glare i think this also looks like Raph similar to his bulky looking self in the 2007 movie and even in the nick toon is quite large he was always the physical one and he looks that way and cluttered he seems like the least cluttered of them all a red bandana and loincloth that about it to him looks fine to me.

The human noses look a lot less prominent in the Marquettes but turtles do have prominent nostrils as human have noses so merging them seem plausible
but so playful countering

These aren't images from the film. They're promotional art. Of course they aren't gonna look like the finished Theatrical effects.

Also, that's not an actual movie poster. Just a promotional poster.

The more I see of these turtles, the more I seriously think that they will be humans mutated into turtle-humanoids.

True, but still, they could have put at least some effort into making the movie look appealing.

That's one opinion. A lot of other people are excited for it.

....nostrils....they have nostrils.... Leo looks like he has a tatoo but that could be the green sea turtle markings they seem to have... Donnie needs to lose the glasses. Hopefully they're sun glasses (like what Raph's sporting) and not prescription. Mikey. Lose the chain necklace. A villain would be able to strangle you. Can anybody read Kanji? I wanna know what it says in Donatello's mask ribbon.

I showed 3 of my friends who weren't Turtles Fans these designs and 2 of them had the same initial reaction: "HOLY SH!T, THAT LOOKS BADASS!"

The third one said they looked ridiculous/silly and were on steroids.

While I admit that the movie has a lot good things going for it (Mos Def as Stockman in particular) it also has a lot of cons going for it as well. The director's previous work includes such gems as:

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning

Battlefield: Los Angeles

And my favorite

Wrath of the Titans

Doesn't exactly merit a lot of excitement, wouldn't you agree?

Looks like Bay has decided to fully embrace their character stereotypes with their costumes. From everything I've seen so far, it just looks like a Michael Bayified version of the Fred Wolf show (which I'm not a fan of)

One of my best friends just responded "Because it's XTREME Ryan! It's the 90s all over again!"

EDIT:
Also, anyone else notice the Japanese writing on Donnie's bandana tails? They look like they glow or something... wouldn't be surprised if it was blacklight or something hah

Wonder why the title is the old dubbing. Idk, for some reason the turtles look a little different from the pics we've seen yesterday. They look more plain..?

While I can't imagine that making the movie any better, that might make it a bit more entertaining. XD

Mos Def is NOT in this movie, nor has anything been released regarding Baxter Stockman being in it either.

EDIT: Looks like IMDB has "K. Todd Freeman" listed as Baxter. News to me.

If you look closely, one of the symbols appears to be a turtle. I can't make out the other symbols though.
