After the years of abuse at the hands of Fred Wolf, head band color errors trigger me.

There were some goofs in Animated Adventures, too.

I think the '80s cartoon has pretty much replaced Mirage as the source material. Multicolored masks? Love of pizza? Shredder being the Darth Vader of the franchise and clashing with the Turtles on a regular basis? Leonardo being the official leader? Those are pretty much unbreakable laws of the franchise today.

Are people so pissed at FW that the coloured bandanas make their blood boil? What has this world come to?

Even Silver-Aged Batman disagrees.
Dude, it's not a big deal. It's just it'd be nice to see at least one other version outside the Mirage (and briefly IDW) where the turtles wear red bandanas. |

Might sound like a strange way to start off my argument but most of the things you mentioned are rather superficial, multicolored masks and pizza aren't that important in the grand scheme of things. I've said this before but I feel it's worth repeating, tonally speaking (and storywise) the Fred Wolf cartoon is pretty much ignored, where in the FW cartoon did anything like this happen? Spoiler:
And how many times did things like this happen? Spoiler:

Come to think of it, he probably has the most in common with Doronjo. Which, ironically, pretty much has to be a coincidence.

While the rest of TMNT may never gone as goofy as the '80s show, from my experience, most subsequent installments are far more lighthearted than Mirage is, which is probably thanks to the '80s cartoon. |

His feud with the Turtles continued from his death on through all Foot Clan dealings (culminating in "City at War") and then through his daughter Pimiko throughout all of Volume 3. And it began even before Shredder, with Oroku Nagi and Hamato Yoshi. So no. The 80's cartoon did NOT come up with the everlasting feud, nor did they really do it justice. By my count, only IDW and Nick have done justice to the Yoshi/Saki feud since.

Another story idea I've toyed around with, for an unborn universe, is having them all just have natural red markings around their eyes in some way that looks cool, yet not too outlandish. Since they're Red Eared Sliders, it could work.
Then to make Playmates happy, just sprinkle some rainbow in the designs tastefully. Give Leo blue hilts, Mikey orange wraps and pads, Don a purple man purse. But nothing for Raph, he's a practical turtle. |

Fair enough (although I think '80s Shredder was good for the type of character he was and show he was on). |
