Licensing Show TMNT pic
I am at the Licensing Expo and stepped over an interesting floormat! Hope this works - tried to post it six times from my iPhone!
If someone can edit this for me so it shows the photo I'd appreciate it! http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pi...f3&id=25113630 EDIT: Okay guys, I'm home! I blew the pics up and adjusted the contrast a little, if anyone wants a better look. I like the designs more and more each time I see them.

 You're welcome. Looks like the bandannas are different lengths. Neat.

Uggggg.....three freakin toes...I simply don't get it.
At least the new comics are sticking to 2 toes. I don't get why Nick is sticking to this change. Make no sense - in fact, it makes their feet and footprint appear to be completely round. The rest of the look is, alright though. Better than the first glimpse we got of them, imo.

Also, it appears that the heads are still a bit too round for my taste....though It's really hard to tell what the final look will be from a still shot.

I do like the overall look of the turtles but...

 Seriously though, wtf???? I don't dig the wraps or the lack of muscle tone, but I can definitely deal with them. Overall, they still look like the TMNT....but that toe is border line flabbergasting to me. I mean - look at the new comic (in Powder's sig) - There is a perfect compromise in giving the show a "new" look that Nick wants, but still being true to every previous incarnation.

I dig the wraps, and I assume the lack of muscle tone is to streamline the animation a bit, but I agree, that third toe has me floored. I mean, what's the reason for it? It's a minor change to be sure, but one that just doesn't seem to have any proper logic behind it.

It's there to drive us mad, MAD I TELL YOU!!!
This is how I see the third toe: Ever travel? Spend all day knowing you forgot to pack something? Ever feel relieved when you discover what it is you know you forgot because then at least you can stop wondering about it? That's how I feel about this third toe. I'm choosing to believe that this third toe is going to be the ONLY thing I'm going to dislike about this show, and I'm choosing to feel relieved about already knowing what that thing is.

perhaps....PERHAPS - in Nicks decision to go with a "younger, more true to life teenager" angle for this show, the 3rd toe is something the guys have from birth....and as the show progresses and the guys grow up a bit and become more mature, it drops off as some sort of cycle of puberty?!?!?
...........perhaps? Ok - I admit it. I'm desperate for a logical explanation of this damned 3rd toe and willing to accept just about ANY explanation that results in the elimination of it. Is there some sort of # we can call to demand they fix this? lol

Enough whining about the 3rd toe guys. I get it, it seems pointless but their feet are very round and stylized, so you can hardly tell it's there.

Thanks Cure! The iPhone sucks for posting pics to these types of forums.
I think the models look pretty good compared to earlier pictures. The third toe is odd but the pads and bandages look better and the heads don't look as rounded as they did before. If I see any other TMNT stuff while I'm here I'll snag photos. |

Awesome, thanks Cartoonistaaron!!! I was just wondering if they had anything else at the show. Have you been by the booth # that is written on the TMNT floormat? Wonder if they have any other sneak peeks there?

I don't suppose we'll be getting any pics of the TOYS at the Licensing Show, will we? So far all I've seen are descriptions of them and from all of the positive things I've heard I'm really curious.

Hey guys,
I tried to distort the image so it was a little more straight on so we could see Donatello & Mikey a bit better.  Uploaded with ImageShack.us |

Looks pretty neat. They look a bit like they are made out of plasticine or something - which I kinda dig. Gotta ask though, what is up with Raph and Don's eyes? Crossed much?

Extra toes aside, I really like the design of the Nick Turtles.
