TMNT new lair speculation

*CyberCubed* · 01-26-2015, 01:26 PM

So they're staying at an abandoned pizza parlor for now but its only temporary. I don't think they can ever go back to their original lair now that the Kraang and Shredder know where it is.

What do you think their next lair will be? Don mentioned an abandoned subway station which reminds me of the lair they had in TMNT II, III and Next Mutation which would actually be cool to see in this show. What do you think?

I would like to see them live in the Subway.
They could get some subs for $5.00

They are not going to hang out in a pizza place forever, that much is guaranteed. Either they go back to the old lair once the Kraang are gone but it's not likely considering that location was already compromised, or they find a new sewer/underground/watery hangout.

They need to live in their shells.
They're turtles, anyway.

Shells aren't a home though.

Yeah, agree it's prob too risky to move back... The abandoned subway station would be cool. (Although where was it they were already living? They had turnstiles... That always had me wondering.) Alternately, I liked where ever it was in 2003 when they pretty much had an attached garage, so to speak, that was pretty cool/handy.

Psh, with human proportions they shouldn't even have any use for it now other than a bit of natural body armor.

I think they were already living at an abandoned subway.

it has tracks and ticket barrier things (as they go into the liar)

Yeah, I thought so too that they were already in one. But... then I'm a little lost on where the entrance/exit is. o.O Suppose that could have been sealed off when it closed down though.

However the interior space is a bit odd for a subway station. Maybe it was utility of some sort... but the turnstiles.

*Powder* · 01-26-2015, 02:16 PM

My hope is that they'll recreate the lair from the the second & third movies/Next Mutation. That'd be really really cool.

*victory_angel* · 01-26-2015, 02:21 PM

Donnie also mentions an abandoned power plant which is where they turtles move to in season 4 of the 2003 incarnation of the show.

*Powder* · 01-26-2015, 02:30 PM

I'd also be happy if they moved into/below a mausoleum, like in the Image comics. But that's probably a very unrealistic desire.

*victory_angel* · 01-26-2015, 02:35 PM

Don't they live in an abandoned church at some point in the IDW.

Cryomancer · 01-26-2015, 02:35 PM

If they're moving I hope they have an episode where they go back to the old lair to move the tree. And pinball machine.

I kind of liked the fake water tower they did for awhile in Mirage but that feels more like a..."apartment" for a lack of a better word, for the turtles than a proper lair for the whole family.

Yeah, I think it was a church basement or something, between issues 13-16, I think. That'd be neat too.

Unfortunately set building seems to be one of their heaviest expenses, so it's probably unlikely, but it would be super cool if they used that concept to give Raph a place to blow-off steam at. A water tower with a boom-box, some comic books, a mini fridge, etc.

Hmm... Kill this Shredder and take his? That would work.

Yup. It's a pretty sweet lair too.

*MikeandRaph87* · 01-26-2015, 04:00 PM

Is the '87 cartoon the only version they are not forced to relocate? Having relocated early on in this and the '03 cartoon its surprising that they have to again. Don's reference to an abandoned subway station makes for an easter egg but it would be nice to be their next lair and hopefully last the rest of the series.

*Drose18* · 01-26-2015, 05:47 PM

Maybe for the lair they can crossover 2k3 and IDW saying

is an abandoned church and live there or in the sewers under it? Eventho it looks kinda like a castle

I think that's supposed to be Belvader Castle in Central Park.
