What do you think is the worst thing in TMNT history?

TMNT is one of the greatest things out there, but some of the stuff made has not been so good (cough we wish you a turtles christmas cough)
So anyway, what do YOU think is the worst thing that has come out of TMNT is? it can be anything! a show, a movie, a character, a voice actor, a piece of merchandise, anything! So tell me what you guys think!

I haven't actually watched it, yet, but out of everything TMNT related that I'm aware of at the moment, I would have to say that the worst thing in it's history so far has been the Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation live-action series. Though the multitude of TMNT PSA's are a close second.

Though who knows, there might be something TMNT out there that I'm not yet aware of. I haven't been actively involved with anything ninja turtle related since the early 2000's, and even considering that, I wasn't aware of NT:TNM till last year...

It all comes down to opinions. I will say the very fact that Venus exsisted edges out the decapitated turtles in Image.

Leo lost an arm,Raph's face is scarred,Don died and was resurrected as a cyborg. I am lucky in that my favorite did not get severely hurt. Its nothing for me. I don't like to see the turtles be battle damaged like that it. Its disrespectful in my opinion. Image is too far off from the turtles I like. You have your likes while I have mine. I don't even know why your commenting on my post since we are as far apart in our preferences as we can be. I hate Image and Venus. Tried them and did not like them so I ignore them.

Its cheesy. I would not say bad. But if you want something considered worse along those lines? How about Operation:Blue Line? I love hearing the '87 cartoon voices but the whole short made me cringe it was so bad.

The majority of the fanbase.

Because people love to hop on the bandwagon, hate campaigns included.

What I like least may be portions of Mirages guest era, as well as that of the Archie series (specials & such).

The clear answer is the Coming Out of Their Shells Tour. Next Mutation was bad, but so was Power Rangers so it kinda was handcuffed by that. TMNT3 was actually ok and I loved the maimed Image Turtles, especially when it was written out of canon. Seeing something deviate so drastically in a series is fun and sometimes necessary. That's part of the reason I'm digging the new IDW comic so much.

Wow, I always figured you liked it for a while but just got frustrated with all the plot threads that never seemed to go anywhere. Do you just hate it outright or think of it as a major lost opportunity? And do you think it started to go wrong at any specific issue?

Spoiler:


Well, I at least liked those Turtle costumes. They'd be the ultimate Halloween get-up. Although I still can't figure out why they mixed up Don and Mikey's body pieces. Also, FW voice cast was pretty cool in goofy live-action.

For me it was the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation. And I actually really enjoyed the music for the Coming Out of Their Shells Tour and still do on a majority of the tracks.
