Favourite ninja turtle

[Lizard]

Leonardo was the leader and had two swords
Raphael had two sai
Michelangelo was a party dude with nunchaku
Donatelo had a staff and invented things

Puahahaha... Lizard, and I thought I was the only one who liked Ninja Turtles...

I have to go with Leonardo... He's got the Katana blades... The new cartoons are pretty cool! I caught a glimpse this past weekend... Didn't realize how violent cartoons have gotten. Check out "Samurai Jack."

Back then, it was "GI J.o.e, and no one ever got shot or killed... These days, cartoons are dying left and right.

I used to be able to do a really good impression of krang "you have failed me AGAIN shredder" that mofo was so bad they took his body away! ("THEY" took his body away). Shredder betrayed splinter. "You plot to kill our honourable sensei" Or was that just splinter's master?

Rocksteady and beebop used to like chinese food.

The technodrome! With moles, footsoldiers and the dreaded rock soldiers.

Havn't seen the new cartoon yet.

I used to watch the original series, but I haven't seen the new one yet. Female Turtle? What weapon does she use? I hope she isn't you know... hanging out with the four horny male turtles who haven't gotten any action, well..... ever.


As far as the poll goes, I like Leonardo, and then Donatello. Raphel & Michelango just had sorry short weapons. Give me somewhat of a larger weapon. I never ever saw Splinter fight at all though. I guess he is some kung-fu/karate rodent though. His ankles were always wrapped in that tape after all.

All this talk of horny turtles and the length of their "weapons" is beggining to worry me. I think the female turtle has a sword but I don't know, I don't even know if she's in the cartoon (saw her in the one where they have actors wearing suits).

I never saw splinter fight either but if he did he would whoop everyone.

Like when people saw yoda fight for the first time. I hate the new star wars films.

I looked up the TMNT series on the internet. The new show was a short-lived series on Fox.

In this, the only pic I could find of her, it looks like she has some sort of knife strapped to her side, but no turtle breasts.

I guess that would be a real turn-off for the male turtles. Or maybe not. She still has the female equipment that is ah, necessary.

In this one it said the series ran on Fox, but only lasted for 26 episodes. The female turtle's name was "Venus De Milo" and instead of being trained "the way of the body" - she was trained "in the mind & spirit."

So maybe she like shoots out beams of "ki" energy, or something like that.

There was also that doctor called Baxter, who used to make those robotic mouse-hunting things. There's also April, the reporter.

I voted for Shredder as my favourite character. I've got the original comic stashed away somewhere. This was the original TMNT comic from the early 80s and it was bloody violent!

I remember Raphael was a psycho in the comic. I think he'll have to be my favourite, but Leonardo had the better weapons.

Dose anyone remember when they had the TV show with real actors? It was on fox a few years ago. And in one episode of the Power rangers, the Ninja turtles were on.

I voted for Leonardo. He was the leader, the smart turtle, and the blade was a cool ass weapon.

What? No option for April O'Neil, the reporter? She didn't fight, but still. I remember Baxter....he got turned into a fly (at least in the video game he was). There was also Rat King and the crocodile.

Leonardo isn't the smart one

[Psyo]

Don't forget the weird yellow pizza monsters

[Lizard]

The rat king likes his peanut butter crunchy.

I'm afraid I don't remember any mouse hunting things, perhaps you could go into further detail. Baxter got into a teleporter with a fly and got mutated with it.

Did the turtles get sent on a mission to find some crystals by an alien who died? (I think he died in a pool or fountain or something). I really wish I could see the cartoons again. So many memories...

They were called Mousers.

The best picture I could find

Lizard, I don't think you need to tell us about ninja turtles!! I used to have all the action figures! Unlike the cartoon, these turtles did die and ended up buried in my parents back yard. And I believe they are still there, somewhere in the yard.

It was kind of messed up how nobody got killed on GI Joe. Every episdoe had a gun fight with red and blue lazers firing constantly overhead. Surely one of them would have taken a shot.

I hate to imagine it, but I can't help it: what happens at night, deep down in the sewers after Master Splinter turns off the lights and that one poor female turtle is left alone with 4 teenage male turtles? I can't say for sure, but I bet Spanky is hiding in the shadows with a video camera.

Did anyone ever check out the original b&w comics by eastman and liard? They were much better than the cartoon. A friend of mine in school had a graphic novel where they all ganged up on Shredder and butchered, then burned him.

what about casey jones.....he kicked ass.
