KRANG- QUESTION 2

dmbturtle · 11-23-2003, 10:29 PM

ALSO- i know in Krangenstein Lives! -- Krang's Body gets Blown up- but then, in the VERY LAST episode of the series, the turtles go back to dimension X and get Krang's robot body? how , if it got destroyed in Krangenstein lives?? thanks

Now, here's a guy who's asking questions about the cartoon villan, Krang!

**azure turtle** · 11-24-2003, 01:19 AM

Hooray! Now if only I could answer his question... But alas, I haven't seen the episode he speaks of.

Purhaps the body was just, repaired.

After it gets blown up in "Krangestein lives!", you see Shredder bring it back to Krang in pieces. I guess that implies that Krang fixes it, because you see him in it later on. After the Technodrome's destruction in "Turtle trek", the body is lost in Dimension X and that's where they find it later.

SS84: I think what he was asking was why wasn't Krang's body with him at the beginning of season 8 when he left season 7 with it...I've already asked that before myself (search my old posts: good luck!), and just the usual, "Ah, you know the scriptwriters, making flaws all the time," answer.

It's just a plothole really. Since they had so many writers they didn't really think about stuff like that. Another example of this is the Turtlevan, it's blown up several times yet it reappears looking exactly like it always did (this happens once in the new series too.) Or how in Convicts from Dimension X how the convicts blow up the TMNT's tv during their assault on their lair and yet at the end of the episode there it is in perfect shape.

That's gotta be the mother of all plotholes in the TMNT universe.

As for Krang's android body, yeah it was strange how it just "disappeared". Maybe the writers thought it was unfashionable for the 90's. You never know...
But I really do love that final scene in "Shredder triumphant" where Krang and Shredder are riding in the back of a pickup truck. Talk about being technologically demoted.

Stuff like that happens all the time in cartoons, they bring it back so that they can have another oppurtunity to destroy it. A good example of this, is kenny from south park.

Not bringing back Krang's old android body for Season 8 was one of the dumbest things the writers ever did. There's a thing called "a lack of continuity."

And then there's a thing called "a lack of continuity."

Why, oh, why the writers ever thought they could pull the wool over our eyes on this one is beyond me. As much as I love the old cartoon, stuff like that just doesn't make any sense.

Shredder and Krang, from "Shredder Triumphant!"

dmbturtle · 12-01-2003, 12:28 PM

so then what was the last episode that we saw Krangs body? not counting the very last one where we saw it without krang?

*Deathknight* · 12-01-2003, 12:42 PM

Either Shredder Triumphant or Turtle Trek... he might've had it in turtle trek, I just haven't watched it in awhile.

~~[email protected]~~ · 05-12-2004, 08:23 PM

Episode guides say Krang's body was shown in the last ep divide and conquer. I never saw the ep though.

When was krang's body last shown in shredder's triumphant?

*Deathknight* · 05-12-2004, 08:57 PM

when Krang was escaping with Shredder, Bebop and Rocksteady in the pickup truck.

WAs that before or after the technodrome was sucked into dimension X.

I do wonder how krang's bubble walker and android body switched.

*Coola Yagami* · 05-13-2004, 06:07 AM

I always wonder why Krang had the bubble walker- besides the obvious, to sell the Krang toy that came with the bubble walker. I mean... what? Did he get tired of the ol android body and wanted somethin more portable?

He did'nt

*Drtooth* · 05-13-2004, 10:35 AM

My question... how come he wanted the android body to look like a fat guy in speedo's?

I think because the show went into a darker tone, the bubble walker fit much better into the scheme of things than the goofy looking robot body. This might by why they opted for the bubble walker instead. Of course, they could have created an entirely new body for Krang...

*jeff the cheff* · 05-13-2004, 12:08 PM

^They probobly wouldn't try something new if the bubble walker worked so good already.
