The turtles hieght?

*Sage Ninja* · 08-15-2006, 03:50 PM

In the FF season, it apears all the turtles are differnt hieghts now. Am I the only bugged out by it

?

I mean it seems that Raphael is now the tallest out of all them and even bit more muscular as well. How do the hieights go now? It seems Raphs the tallest and Donatello is the shortest (maybe i can't really tell).

Michelangelo is the shortest actually.

The official FF heights are:
Leonardo: 5' 4"
Donatello: 5' 4"
Raphael: 5' 5"
Michelangelo: 5' 3"

This is on the packaging of the action figures... and you really notice it too... FF Raphael towers over my other figures...he's just as tall as my Casey Jones figure!

why the heck did they have to change the heights on the turtles. I know this is just a nit-pick but little changes like that are unnesscariy. I mean I'm not compeltely opposed to them being different heights and all, it distigishes them, like their different skin tones. But If they wanted to make them all different heights why didn't they just do it from the start, instead of changing them in the middle of the series.

And I don't know but in FF did they change their skin tones as well too? Or is that just the different animation style at work?

Someone forgot to tell them not to animate the turtles on a 1:1 inch-to-foot scale.

Frankly, I hadn't noticed the change at all, so it can't be that apparent. And even if it is, this is the start of a whole new series; the tone of the show has changed, the animation has changed, and the setting has changed...So modifying the Turtles' heights isn't that big a deal, in my eyes.

*Revan* · 08-16-2006, 04:18 PM

yeah i noticed the height change as well but it's no big deal

I hate the hieght change really. I don't see the point in it, it didn't do anything for the characters, why did they do that?

I guess to make things seems a little more realistic? I don't know but I think it's a dumb move also...even though they all would more than likely not be the same height.

*Sage Ninja* · 08-22-2006, 04:28 PM

its realistic. My older sister and i are the same height and my little sister seems like she is going to be the same height as us as well.

Although i really think they gave the turtles different skin tones in fast Foward than how they where in previous seasons. The turtles where such pretty shades of green, especially Leonardo, now they seem to be some kind of yellowish mucus green

eww

but the thing is they very well could be differtn hieghts because they aren't of the same mother...if we are going to get technical. lol

It could just be explained that they're maturing and been hitting growth spurts since the previous season ....

And they seem to have each adopted a different shade of green, too. 'Reminds me of the "Comic" colouring from the SNES version of Turtles in Time, now that I think about it.

I felt like that compared to a lot of people when I was 15/16. It's not like I was really short since I was around 5' 6, just a lot of people seem to hit growth spurts and get taller

Their colouring has always been like that!

The colours are:
Leo: Light/Grass Green
Don: Brownish Green
Raph: Forest Green
Mikey: Blue Green

They've always been different shades of green

Their colouring didn't change. Splinter changed from being a blue agouti self (all one colour) rat to being an agouti blue Berkshire (white stomache).
