Ninja Turtles(2012) Episode Guide
This is what I have been able to find so far of the first 26 episodes...11 titles and air dates with atleast brief summaries through each. Lets see what else we can add.I wish Nick would give us a full season episode guide with brief summaries just as it starts like ninjaturtles.com did for the 2003 cartoon. I guess I got spoiled with that.

So being that the Purple Dragons will be appearing in the 2012 series, does that mean it may be possible that Hun will appear in the series ?
Also, did they ever make any Purple Dragon action figures for the 2003 series ? |

Great Thread idea! I'll definitely be checking this out...
Hmm... I see much more lecturing coming for the boys in the near future. The animatic for episode five was so fun to watch, I can't wait to see the finished product. |

If you're not counting Hun himself, they *were* going to make one of the Dragon known as "John" in the Dreamwave adaptation (the one Saki killed at the end of episode one), but it was never released. I'm pretty sure there's one or more protos out there though.

Actually, Marcel, Chris Bradford and Xever will eventually turn into Dogpound and Fishface, though I don't think they will at the beginning of their appearances. I'm sure it'll be a gradual thing.
And I can't wait for that Leo-centered episode.

Sticky?Awesome! I will edit it as we get more info. PM me if there is something you find that needs to be added. Most of the info I got was off of either tv.com or wikipedia.org. One thing that I could not find listed were episode writers aside from the first. I am archiving the episdoes as they air on my DVR(since my VCRs only play and not record on digital) so I can look at the end credits for episode #3 later. How is everyone else recording it? Space pending I would like to save them on the DVR until a DVD release has been issued.

Thanks MikeandRaph87! It's kinda nice to know what to expect for the next couple of months. I can't wait for ep 6 with Metalhead! Really looking forward to seeing what they do with him.

It is very possible that Hun will appear in the Nick series. If not then they must have someone else for purple Dragons leader.

Episode 8 and 11 are the ones I am looking forward to the most.
"Never say Xever" is a Leo-centric eppie and "Mouserthon" seems to have the turtles divided in two teams: A and B. Could be interesting to see that sort of rivalry between A-team Leo+Raph and B-team Donnie+Mikey. |
