Would you like to see human Foot Soldiers return?

After watching the Yokai episode it reminded me how much more exciting it is to see the Turtles fight human foot soldiers rather than just robots all the time. I think the robot Foot have pretty much wore out their welcome.

It would be nice to see the human Foot Clan return, maybe late in Season 4 after the Turtles return from space.

Either way works for me. Having robotic Foot soldiers rather than human isn't an issue for me.

Id rather have human foot soldiers, but then we would probably have the "one kick and he's down" move. At least with RFS we can have them hacked and slashed to a pulp with no blood

The human Foot weren't even that much of a threat in this series, so no thanks.

Niether are the robotic ones but they're less thematically fitting than the human ones.

Guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.

Not at this point, no. If they were of any use, they'd be there now. I don't wanna see Shredder bust out his elites or something after all this time spent wasting resources/fighters knowing he had a team of assassins on speed dial. It'd be too much of a plot convenience, & I say that as a big fan of the traditional ninjas.

Could be neat to see other kinds, though, like Foot Tech bots, mystics, or that giant mech from the Archie books.

It wouldn't make much sense, and probably wouldn't be a very interesting plot point.

But, I can't stand the monkey noises the robots make. I thought it was clever and funny to have the mousers sound like cats, but the Foot monkeys are annoying.

Yeah...with the Kraang temporarily gone, how is Shredder able to maintain them? Baxter can only do so much.

Kraang are gone but Baxtrer knows how to create robots and now it is him who creates thm. In the 87 cartoon it was Krang that created the robot foot soliders and they lasted from episode 1 till the end. I dont have any reason to use humans solider anymore because they are too weak compared to robots.

But the robots are even weaker than the humans.

With robots, the turtles can go all out "ninjas", something FW never exploited. So I'm good with the change from human Foot to robotic Foot.

Why not just imply they killed the ninjas? That way there's no blood.

You can't stab something sharp through a human's neck in a children's cartoon.

No, but you can do it off-screen.

Of-screen is boring and redundant. We got plenty off that in 2k3 and in Nick when the NY Foot where humans.
