Got a TMNT Question? Ask the "experts."

**Jester** · 01-05-2005, 04:19 PM

Hello, all.
After doing a few pages of TMNT trivia with X, and realizing he's a Playmates and old toon phenom, and I'm pretty good with the TMNT movies and ok with Archie and the new toon, so we desided we'd start a "Ask/Stump the Experts" thread. The premise is simple, u have a question, legitimate or an attempt to "stump" us, ask away. we'll answer it to the best of our ability, if we can't we're stumped.
"Get it, got it, good!"
And now, Stump the Experts!!!

This is good I like the set up, cant wait for a question.

**azure turtle** · 01-06-2005, 01:25 AM

Hmm... Okay, I'll bite!

This is actually a legit question that I've been wondering about for some time. In the old 'toon, what's the name of the episode where Metalhead makes his first appearance? I have an animation cell showing Don with Metalhead, and I think it might be from Metalhead's debut (since I'm sure he's been in two episodes).

*Weapon X* · 01-06-2005, 06:23 AM

That would be, "The Making of Metalhead".

**Jester** · 01-06-2005, 10:12 AM

and to keep the ball rolling X, what was the 2nd Metalhead episode.

**azure turtle** · 01-06-2005, 07:43 PM

Coolness! Thanks, X!

Y'know, I just noticed that Metalhead's holding a vacuum. Could that mean that my animation cell is from the second episode?

I have a vague memory of Donny re-programming their former enemy and turning him into a housekeeper of sorts... Unless that happened in "The Making of Metalhead."

*CyberCubed* · 01-06-2005, 07:50 PM

Here's a stumper:

Why was Slash changed from the badass he is in the Archie series to a bumbling idiot for the Original cartoon? And howcome he didn't have his black bandana in the Old cartoon?

Wheee.. try to answer THAT!

Shadow Leonardo · 01-06-2005, 07:52 PM

I want to know the one where all the turtles are kids except Michelangelo what episode was that called?

**Jester** · 01-06-2005, 08:23 PM

Hey i know this one Shadow Leo, it's called Adventures in Turtlesitting.
And Cubed, dunna, i guess it's a writers dissision, the Archie sereis took off from the show before Slash, and the storys had more grit to them, that may be it....

*Spitfire* · 01-06-2005, 09:41 PM

How did Usagi orgnially end up meeting the TMNT and which comic series hosted the first crossover?

**Jester** · 01-06-2005, 10:21 PM

Darn u spitfire!!!! i dunna....Mirage isn't my area of expertiese....we need a mirage man....if u know the answer urself, u've got the job as th Mirage Comics geek....to my movie Geek and X's TV geek....

**azure turtle** · 01-07-2005, 01:18 AM

Oy... If only Roseangelo or Karpo were here to answer that question. I'm almost certain that Usagi appeared in a turtles book before they appeared in his own book. Could've been a Turtle Soup story where Leo faces Usagi in a duel. Too bad all my TMNT comics are at home.

Michaelangelo|DAH · 01-07-2005, 10:25 AM

hehe I wanna join...

I know he was in Turtle Soup #1 1st print 1987

I think that was the first one Usagi was in, but I'm not sure

**Jester** · 01-07-2005, 11:16 AM

Thanks guys, Mirage is definately not my forte, and i'm not sure how much x knows...

*Deathknight* · 01-07-2005, 01:08 PM

I cannot be conquered in my knowledge of the old toon.

**Jester** · 01-07-2005, 01:41 PM

alright....test urself against X...he's pretty good himself.

*Deathknight* · 01-07-2005, 06:09 PM

I don't ask questions, only answer them. Especially since in this kind of way of answering questions you can look up the answer.

**Jester** · 01-07-2005, 06:27 PM

ok....

Which episodes of the old show featured turtle tots, which episodes had characters switching bodies or thinking they were another character, and what was the first mistake in in the long history of old toon animation mistakes??
X, DK commence the....DUEL!!!!!
