r/TMNT2003

Is it possible that Super 7 could make some of the underground mutants as figures if they keep the license? I personally would love a King Nail figure.

?

One thing I really appreciate about Donatello in the 2003 TMNT series is how he actually forms genuine connections outside of just his brothers. He’s not only the “tech guy”. he comes across as thoughtful, empathetic, and willing to really understand the people he interacts with. That adds a lot of depth to his character and makes his relationships feel more natural and meaningful.

I kind of wish more versions of Don leaned into this side of him consistently. It makes him feel more well-rounded and, honestly, a lot more relatable than just being the smart one of the group.

About a month ago, my oldest sister bought me the 2003 TMNT DVD set as one of my (belated) birthday gifts!

(Amazon has this DVD set on their website, but it was expensive, so my oldest sister bought this for me on eBay, because the DVD set was cheaper on eBay than it is on Amazon.)

(NOTE: I forgot to post this on my birthday week last month, so I'm posting it right now. It's better late than never.)

The question is probably incredibly banal, but I want to gather some personal statistics on favorite turtles.

Raph for me so relatable

Currently I am studying and drawing the tmnt artstyle, alongside Teen Titans as I want to show off a bit of a crossover between both shows soon.

Did TMNT 2003, despite it being my favorite iteration of the franchise, ever accomplish anything?

For me I think Nanotech Parker-Richards deserves more fan art. I don't think he has any fan art and if he does it is probably an extremely little art. He is pretty interesting and sad. He was tortured as an experiment then when he broke free all he wanted was a family. Oh and he has the mind of a child. His farther was a pickpocketer that found him, the man was a coward, like he did get legit upset when he that Nano died and he even at one point tries to get Nano to run despite knowing he would go to jail. But that man's greed and cowardness prevents him from being a good father. Oh and Nanotech's mom is the scientists that tortured him for his first whole existence despite knowing he is sapient. She sucks.

To be honest i do like the idea of him going to a thief and gaint monster to a hero. I just wish he was still a kid. It was a bit jarring that he suddenly had a completely different mind and personality. I do mostly like the golden hero look though i feel like the car rim gauntlet thing that go up on the 13 image was gone, the same for the blue orbs on the 14 one. I like the huge arsenal of weapons he gets. If i remember right his eyes changed colors when using his full arsenal. I do love the gold. I wish his right hand was red. I like the idea of him having hands that are different colors.

Also if he was still a kid then it could be fun if even while being a hero he still has some thiefish tendencies. Like little Nano pickpocketing candy from Silver Sentry that Sentry was going to give to him anyways. I wonder if Nano would have a fear of things being tooken away from him.

Side note did anyone else forget how many forms Nanotech has.

A fight to the death , who comes out in top?

Today, at my local consignment shop, I found and bought this Raphael PEZ Dispenser for 50¢.

(NOTE: It says it's from 2005, but it's based on the 2003 TMNT cartoon/animated series.)
