New trailer is out.

I actually don't hate this view of Mikey as much as the first glimpse of him. Then this showed up and I lost it.

Looks kinda familiar.

Still I'm actually kinda excited to see it a bit more. -
Crystalice is right though, we shouldn't just base our opinions just on the designs of the turtles.
After all, the rest of the trailer sucked ass, too.
-
I always wanted the Turtle's origins to be more note for note like modern Spiderman!
-
I….what…..I don't know what I've seen…. Donatello what have they done to you D:
-
ehh, I like the concept of varying the turtles' designs up to make them more visually distinct from each other (especially since after Transformers a complaint I've often heard is "can't tell em apart other than Prime and BB") But this feels so hamfistedly done. Leo's is really the only one that meshes well with me.
-
Adding a couple of details to make them more unique is a good idea, but this… They basically threw every single idea they came up with at once.
It like the christmas deceoration I made when I was six year old and dumped so much glitter that you can barely make out the santa.
-
I like how they look
-
The new episode was great.
! I'm wonder what is going to be the last mutant that Shredder wants to make.
-
Lol at Baxter wanting to make Pig and Rhino mutants ^____^

! Bebop and Rockstead have designs from the new series. Don't know if what they'll be used for. Maybe for extra toys? But they do have fully rendered promo art.
-
Watching the show is a good balm from watching or thinking about the movie trailer.

! Yeah, I've seen em. I doubt they'll be toy only as we've gotten practically every toy in the show already. Even pointless ones like KirbyBat.
-
Found this gem on Tumblr. lol
-
Oh I'm sure the devoted TMNT community is having a blast with this on tumblr.
-
Great episode this week.
! I really like that they continued the Raph and Slash storyline. And that Raph save Slash this time around during the fight against the Krang.
-
Better visual of Splinter

Eh, he looks fine, I guess. What happened to that glorious fu-manchu we saw in that commercial, though?
-
Are we sure that's even the same splinter from the film? It looks more like unused concept art based on Dave Rapoza's design.
The released toy image looks much more like the film(fu-manchu and Mandarin-esque clothing)

Its been like a month and I still cant get over how ugly all those designs are.

-
Looks like a topknot, like Iron Man 3's Mandarin had.
-
That's a goddamn UGLY topnot. It looks like a physical deformity.
-
That toy is really terrible.

-
I present Edward Shredderhands
But in all seriousness his design is at least better than the turtles
-
Holy fucking shit what an overdesigned travesty
Looks less like Shredder, more like a predator fused with a swiss army knife.
"Guys guys guys what if the Wolverine-claws were like, actual giant knife blades? Like the ones in the army? That'd be awesome right!?!?"
-
Looks like a Transformer.
I'd prefer a Yoshimitsu looking Shredder.
-
TMNT is renewed for a 4th season.
-
They're replacing Biggs? And with Seth Green? :/ I like Seth Green, but Biggs' voice was really fitting for Leonardo and I'm not sure Green's will. We'll see, I guess.
P.S. Why is Splinter fighting Wolverinetimus Prime?

I'd laugh if it wasn't so sad.

Jason Biggs has been replaced already this season by his video game stand-in. There are two rumors, the first is that his contract is finally up and they can finally boot him because of his actions on twitter before the show aried. The second is because he has become increasingly busier since the show has started, catching almost a second wind.
The reason for not just using the video game stand-in is probably name brand. They want someone bigger to bring in an audience.

I don't think big when I think of Seth Green whose voiced characters sound the same. And what did Jason Biggs do on twitter?

This post is deleted!
-
Poster for Leo.I did two small edits to make it a bit more like what I enjoyed watching, not too much snout to make it look too goofy. With and without nostrils.
!
!The new trailer will be out once all 4 posters are unlocked. So probably this week if not next.
-
Your nostril version is pretty good.
The poster on the other hand . . . . . . . . (and Leo is the GOOD turtle . . . .)
-
Well…at least Shredder's design has a little merit to the extra blades, despite how ridiculous they look.
Edit- The trailer pretty much shows the entire movie.
So, pretty much ignore the horrible Splinter toy, and take comfort that they KINDA went with the 1990 movie head design.
Also a rumor with no source based on the trailer. Take it with a grain of salt as it's probably 99.99% fake.
! The original Shredder from the Shredder clan supposedly got bought out by our new White Shredder. Could Oroku Saki been reduced to a small onscreen role we see in the trailer in the shadows?
-
So. The Turtles threaten April and say they'll track her down and silence her if she says anything. While making jokes about Batman. And still looking terrible.
All set to awful music.
Awesome.
Interesting that they've had to shoehorn a line, into the trailer to say "no, no, we're not going the route of making them aliens, that would be silly." Such is the backlash after the pre-production crap.
And Whoopi Goldberg, what are you doing in this?
-
Ugh, I hate Shredder's look in the film. What an overdesigned monstrosity.
-
Seriously though, is there a small chance we might see(or hear of) Oroku in the film as a common Asian dude who had the outfit passed down through generations only to have it be bought by some White dude?
It sounds like ShredderofChildhoodDreamsandEntertainment was a collector and bought it, then decided to ruin what was once something very valuable and turn it into something out of Digimon.
-

Well, they called him a guy in samurai armor, missing the whole "ninja" thing. So I wouldn't count on it.
If they actually have a guy with a hard to pronounce asian name, I'm sure he'll be an awful stereotype straight out of Robocop 3.
-
Oh I don't want them to, But I do think they would stoop that low to have Oroku in the film as a random homage that just ends up as an insult.
Something as lame as "Oh we took your ancestor Oroku's armor to the next level and Digimoned the crap out of it, with blackjacks, and hookers."
-
I . . . . . I don't even . . . . .
And . . . . if I'm gleaning from the trailer correctly (and if Vernon is correct), that's not a White Shredder, that's a ROBOT Shredder. I'm not sure which is worse. Because CEO dude said something about "bringing his armor to the next level" and Vernon said they're fighting a "robot samurai." Foot clan robots are ninjas, so if the robot is a samurai, it's got to be Shredder. And just looking at the way it moved . . . . very robot-like.
But let's break it down.
1. Turtles threaten to kill April if she reveals their secret. Wonderful.
2. I retract my previous statement and say that Raphael has the best design, looking the most like original turtles. Although I think he has sunglasses. sigh
3. Splinter looks okay. Thank god.
4. Again, I think it's a Robot Shredder. Ack.
5. Oh god, Donnie. What have they done to you? sob
6. From the plot points I can glean . . . . . eh.
7. Trailer music is horrible. Hopefully not in the movie. -
Main reason the rumor has popped up is due to a lightened version of the taking your armor scene.
Spoilers.
!
It's just speculation and could just be horrible pixelation from lighting the screencap, but he looks like he has burn marks on his face. Somewhat similar to the nicktoons TMNT
Plus Karai is in the film, just nothing on Saki yet. -
Donatello is too cool to get a poster I guess
-
There you go. -
awww man that's so awesome (glasses were unnecessary tho)
-
Second trailer sold me. It looks fun. They talk like Turtles and they kick butt and skateboard and shit.
Donatello has certainly been "doing" machines! They have some crazy tech.
I don't care that Michelangelo looks like shrek.
Mecha-shredder will finally fill the void that the also clearly over designed super shredder could not when a dock fell on him, and killed him. Now we get to see the fight we wanted.
Inception bwas and dub step? The movie has Whoopi Goldberg in it, her 90s aura balances it out.
Turtle Power lives on in my brain from my childhood. It's bulletproof and indestructible. Nothing can harm it. Especially Michael fucking Bay and sidekick Megan Fox.
This could have been a lot worse. And I'm honestly looking forward to seeing it. And if it sucks, i'll go watch the first movie and wash away the crap.
-
Now that was a far better trailer, and also Oroko Saki is in this movie.
