colored bandanas or no?

Lisardo · 11-12-2003, 10:01 PM

Silly question I guess, but hey alotta these topics are simple little things like this. I like the colored bandanas better than when they were all red. It just shows they have individuality plus it was easier for kids to tell them apart.

ALL RED ALL-THE-WAY!!!

~~Jarrah White~~ · 11-12-2003, 10:06 PM

I like how they have different colours, otherwise how else you gonna tell them apart?

Splinter · 11-12-2003, 10:08 PM

I prefer the colored masks. Makes them more intresting, more individualistic. And red doesn't make sense in the original comics either. Plus it's hard enough in some of the old black and white comics to tell who is who, without their weapons. Besides, even Laird has stated that the colored masks have grown on him. They'll never make their way into the Mirage books. But they do help make the turtles individuals.

Yea..im kinda partial to both...the all red shows them as one cohesive unit..kinda like sports uniforms...i think it better shows them acting in a more team mentallity...but the colored is kinda neat for the same reasons...it shows the indidviuality of each turtle....so im neutral!!

Fugitoid Jones · 11-12-2003, 10:41 PM

I do like how they were all red in the Mirage comics, made them look more like a team, and more like gritty ninja bad-asses. However, I do like the different colored bandanas more. The whole individuality thing everyone has said. How each color kinda matches each Turtle's personality. Plus, if it weren't for the different colors, you probably wouldn't be able to tell who's who if you can't see their weapons.

Lisardo · 11-12-2003, 10:48 PM

Yeah but they did color their weapons in the new series. And why that doesn't annoy me, it's just weird to see colored tape around their weapons.

*Roseangelo* · 11-12-2003, 11:25 PM

I like the colored bandanas with the black pads.

All red is good too, but you really don't see that too much because the Mirage books are in B&W. So I guess I'm more used to the colored.

*Taloniss* · 11-13-2003, 05:52 AM

I like the coloured. It makes them seem more like individuals.

Misfit · 11-13-2003, 07:12 AM

I like the coloured ones. Can't tell the guys apart otherwise.

Peanut · 11-13-2003, 08:23 AM

Coloured for sure. It's what I grew up with and it's what I'll always see them having.

**Karpo_007** · 11-13-2003, 08:39 AM

It Depends. In Mirage, I don't want to see multi colored Bandanas, but in Movies/TV-shows it does work just fine.

*Mecha Cow* · 11-13-2003, 08:45 AM

I like the multi-colored ones, but I'll always prefer the red ones.

I know it makes them look more like individuals, but they don't need different colors for that; They are different enough in personality.

Plus, the all red ones make them look more like brothers in my eyes.

Weapons? Voices? Personalities?

Colored masks all the way, baby!

Personally, I prefer the colored bandannas. What can I say, I love color.

But I'm not against all red in the comics, or anywhere, really.

~~Reznorite420~~ · 11-13-2003, 09:56 AM

Either will do just fine for me, so I'm with Karpo on this one.

**azure turtle** · 11-13-2003, 11:33 AM

I like the colored bandannas; it reflects each of the Turtles' individual personalities. I don't mind seeing them all wear red, though, since I like the idea that it makes them look more unified.

Meira-Bates · 11-13-2003, 11:45 AM

I like the colored bandana mostly because if you look up the meaning of the colors, they fit thier turtle's description almost right on ususaly.

Dinogrrl · 11-13-2003, 11:50 AM

You kinda needed an either option on that poll, cause although I generally prefer colours, as I'm lazy and find that easier to tell them apart, I don't have an issue with the red either. It makes 'em look meaner.
