Kitten-Skull's avatar
Lately Ive begun re-watching the 2003 version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Which I LOVE!) and it made me remember watching the old 80's cartoon and old movies when I was a kid and even to this day Raph has to be my all time favorite turtle! <3

So Im curious, who is your favorite turtle or TMNT character (if not a turtle)

Also anyone be interested in a TMNT rp or art swap?


PS: I hope the Micheal Bay TMNT movie will be epic!

I always liked Raph. Awesome but rude! :D When I was a kid, I thought he was the leader because he had the red mask. XD

Mikey was always my favorite growing up (still is.)
I've always had a soft spot for the clown. <3
There always needs to be someone to remind the group that they have real feelings! There's more than just fighting *nod*

My favourite Turtle is Michaelangelo. I liked him because he used my favourite weapon of the Nuchuku's. Even when they were forced to scrap the Nunchucks in later seasons I still liked him.

I only watched the first season of the 2003 series but again my fav was Mickey.

My favourite non turtle character is the 1987 version of April O'Neil.

Lol I love how funny and child like Mikey is and how he always teases Raphael :)

I agree 87 April is pretty cool, she's my fav version of her.

oh wow hero turtles? I think Ninja sounds way better

Totally agree Ninja is better.

At the time the cartoon came out in 1988/89 in the UK and Europe anything to do with Ninja's in kids programmes wasn't allowed so they had to change it to Hero Turtles.

But by the end of 1989 most if not all of us knew it was Ninja Turtles. In fact the BBC had to leave in the word Ninja in two episodes otherwise the line wouldn't have made any sense.

In the UK we kept the movie as Ninja Turtles and by 2003 all censorship was gone so the new series was kept as Ninja Turtles.

Here you might find this interesting [link]

Also can I ask you, Have you ever seen the Turtle movie Turtles Forever? If not watch it it is fantastic.

Raphael seems to be a popular fan fav so far :) as for the new cartoon I've seen a bit if it and I find it ok. The animation is defiantly different and I like how the turtles all have slight physical differences instead of all being the same body base but different colors
kmwright's avatar
Yeah, I didn't care for their new models. It kind of reminds me of how the old cartoon have turtles look the same. I sort of like the way 4kids did it (can't believe I would ever write those words).
