Shouldn't ZACH be about 27 years old by now?

Look... He was maybe 10 or 12 when he lost the turtles....THAT WAS 15 YEARS AGO!

It WAS a LONG time ago, but as I recall... In the old cartoom, Zach was nothing more than a teen himself, when in fact he should be workin' on the big '30'.

If they were to bring him back, considering he is that old... he could be experienced in martial arts himself... and help the turtles... y'know?

ooh, that would be kinda cool...

or, maybe the morning of Yoshi's death, he was bringing home some turtles when he slipped in a puddle...? Seeing as splinter found the turtles soon after yoshi's death, it could work.

actually, from the looks of that episode... that other kid knocked the bowl outta his hands when he was tryin' to save that old man in the street.

Actually, the kid that owned the turtles is some kid named Chet if my memory serves me correctly, but that's in the comics. If Zach is the kid who owned them in the cartoon, then he wouldn't be any old since the Turtles instantly became teenagers in the original cartoon.

thats right... in the old toon they were automatically switched to full-grown humans.... but they were still supposedly 15 years old, well, i remember hearing that Leo was 16

Anyway... they just grew normally in the real story i think

*Deathknight* · 05-29-2003, 09:46 PM

Actually Zach was 13 in the old cartoon.

InsaneZane · 05-30-2003, 12:15 AM

y'see? now that just doesn't make since.

**Karpo_007** · 05-30-2003, 08:30 AM

Yeah originally the guy who found the TMNT was called chet. If they will ever use a story wich would cover that, they will probably use that name.

~~PWDESAI~~ · 05-31-2003, 01:48 PM

it was never clarified that zach was the kid who dropped the turtles, he was just the turtle's biggest fan. In the intro, the kid barely looks like him, you may have gotten the idea because they're both blond?
Isn't that really odd btw, they made zach and his girlfriend blond, April a redhead, and the only characters who were brunettes or had black hair were irma and vernon

*Jephael* · 05-31-2003, 04:29 PM

I never thought of it before, but they did make that @$$hole Burne a redhead as well.

**Nturtle** · 05-31-2003, 06:57 PM

Hey! That would be kind of crazy go awesome if he was in the new show as an adult as a cool martial artist dude!

Of course he couldn't know the turtles because its a diffrent universe. But it would be an intresting link to the old show!

But only if he isn't all "5th honorary turtle" etc... because that was really stupid....

*Jephael* · 05-31-2003, 09:04 PM

I'm just glad they toned it down in "The Great Boldini", he didn't have his costuime on in that one.

**azure turtle** · 06-01-2003, 03:14 PM

Eh... I hated Zach. I thought he was annoying.

Chet was the boy who originally owned the TMNT during their pet turtle days. In the old toon, he would've probably been in his late twenties.
