Because he sounds like a typical Italian new yorker and that was specifically what they were going for. If they wanted him to sound black, they'd just do that instead of making him sound like a typical >AYYYY I'M WALKIN HERE
Italian American.
>If you can't tell the Turtles apart in black and white or without their weapons and bandanas, they're bad designs
Them looking identical was the joke you fricking moron. It's taking the piss out of capes.
That works for the first issue of an indie comic. But it doesn’t work for a multimedia franchise. They NEED to be individualized. That’s why the cartoon gave them their own colors.

She summed up some basic parts of how he fights like a noob
>When wielding a bo staff, there are specific positions you should always hold it at. Narrow, normal (3rds) or wide. Donnie seems to always hold his staff at the wide stance or normal stance for the most part but several times he’s swung his staff like a baseball bat
>Holding a Bo staff like a bat is unstable and prone to be knocked out of the user’s hands. you loose your balance that way and it’s not something a proficient bo staff wielder would do! The ONLY time you would do that is if you were sweeping someone’s feet so they fall, never for a mid shot to the body.
>Sure it’s cool to see Donnie spin his bo staff around all over the place but you never use a spin in combat unless your winding up a strike. You’re supposed to use thrusts, swift movements, blocks, and in general your form should always be stable. you tend to hit your shoulders a lot with a bo staff and the fact that I’ve barely seen 2012 Donnie use literally beginner level moves….. It irritates me so much because it doesnt show off how versitile the bo staff is and how deadly it can actually be.

The only one I know that did that was that Out of the Shadows game where each Turtle had their own style. Mikey did capoeira, Leo did Taekwondo, Raph did Muay Thai and Donatello did Tai Chi or something
>Raph is the ripped huge one of the team
This makes me sad cause Raphael is the coolest when he's like a little short angry dude with a lot of pent up frustration.
Making him big is just like... boring?
IMO the heights should be Donnie > Leo > Mikey > Raph
The big thing I don't like about huge raph is that nobody looks at pic related and goes "wow, what a strong creature". Large turtles are more associated with being slow and methodical, since they're heavier. If anything, Donatello should be the hulking one, since he's usually the least agile of the four.

All turtles are considered slow and clumsy. That was the point , even the lightest turtles are called slow so it was funny for traditionally sluggish animal to be capable to martial arts
I love street fighter and i love TMNT but this shit was way too expensive each turtle was 15 bucks and they are just fricking skins not real characters like injustice, you have to pay $60 for all of them and then some more if you want the rest of the TMNT items in the shop
>Nickelodeon, Street Fighter, Fortnite crossovers for games, Stranger Things, Power Rangers crossovers in the comics, He-Man and Cobra Kai collaborations for the toy line
Mutant Mayhem and Rise were going for a more distinct look
Fortnite went with something more evergreen
I've seen people compare the Fortnite TMNT designs to Dan Mora's for the Power Rangers crossover comic
Actually on that note, how muscular should the Turtles be? Like a lot of their stats in stuff like the games or comics or cartoons have them in the 170 pound range which is pretty light heavyweight.
Depends on the tone they're going for and how willing they are to stretch the definition of teenager
I know most teens are smaller than pop culture would suggest (Mutant Mayhem leans on this hard) but there are still larger athletes in High School
They're mutants who don't have to obey human rules but they're still "teenagers"
Personally I dig TMNT going for a coming of age route where the Turtles become more adult-like as time goes on
>I know most teens are smaller than pop culture would suggest (Mutant Mayhem leans on this hard) but there are still larger athletes in High School

I find it’s the opposite. They’re always pretty short in most incarnations save for Bayverse and Rise Raphael. Like most teenagers are pretty close to their peak adult size around that period.
mate, I like the designs but saying literal palette swaps are peak is stupid
I'm not saying you should flanderize them where Donnie's thinner than his staff, Mikey's a toddler in comparison to his brothers, and Raph's practically the Hulk
I'm just saying incorporating individual traits to their designs is good

These look pretty bad.
Mind you, I understand why. If you made them as wide as they'd reasonably be, they'd be a bigger target and easier to hit in a FPS. And if you made them shorter than average to compensate, then they'd be harder to hit.
But they just look bad, the details shit, and the whole outfit looks like some terrible toy plastic. I think nearly any other TMNT design are better than these, although I've not seen Mutant Mayhem so there might be worse.
On the other hand, this does look worse.

They were on separate pages in alphabetical order with several characters inbetween.
I would agree except for the single solitary good thing later iterations would add, which is that it was very smart to give them slight physical distinctiveness so they weren't all the same turtle with different-colored masks. Not that they need that from a story perspective or anything, but it really helps the audience to track who is what and remember their character traits, because while I remember Mikey with the orange mask is "the party dude", and the purple masked one "does machines", it can get confusing when they all look identical except for the mask. Making them slightly unique was a great choice, a fine caramelized onion jam gently drizzled over the top of what is other wise an enormous pile of shit on a week-old bun.
I still prefer 2012. Been around since the start, have plenty of love for the other versions (except Rise and Next Mutation), but something about the 2012 designs clicked for me.
Because fortnite's designers are fanboys. The success of fortnite is directly linked to exactly how many of those skins they sell, so they have direct feedback which they follow.
Never. They had a Star Trek emote like two years ago, but no skins yet. So, they won't add the shitty nerd cartoon from the nerd series they haven't added
Kirk, Spock. Picard. Worfe. Sisko. Kira. Beckett and Brad.
You could literally add shit loads of characters like they've done for DC, Marvel, Star Wars.

They keep renewing it for new seasons even though none of the nuTrek shows have made any money for CBS. Most of the homosexuals who post about it here are only interested because they have an autism boner for the female characters and are hopelessly obsessed with talking about how much they want to frick them. The rest of the show is incidental and it should go without saying that you should not trust the opinion of anyone with a folder full of Lower Decks porn.
Because they're desperate to get people to play their shit game. Haven't you figured it out by how many characters from other game genres and anime they keep adding in desperate, shallow attempts at getting new players?
Because while fortnite is trash, and their art style is just generic pixar/dreamworks soiface slop, I will unironically and without a hint of sarcasm give them one truly genuine compliment: they have a specific style, they put time and effort into making sure things look right for that style, they have turned that slurry of borrowed style notes into a smoothie that is iconic and recognizable, like how pumpkin spice is a bunch of constituent spices blended together with a specific, recognizable ratio, and they absolutely stick to that style. That's why the Peter Griffin thing pissed me off when I saw it in motion, because it looks like a bad fan mod. It looks like someone used Garry's Mod or something. Outside of that, as much as I hate Fortnite, I think it's really laudable of them to have all these pop cultural references but then force them to follow the style guidelines of their universe. Peter Griffin be damned.
>Homelander is in CoD and not Fortnite >Homelander will be in Mortal Kombat but his actor won't voice him.
Which is why Sly has my respect for voicing Rambo and Keith David for doing Spawn.
Usagi Yojbo is like a separate comic book about a rabbit samurai in version of Feudal Japan where everyone’s an anthropomorphic animal. It’s gotten a lot of crossovers with the Turtles. Karai is a Foot Clan member who’s sometimes Shredder’s daughter and usually has a thing with Leo
Are there any other than TMNT and DC? I could've sworn there were some Futurama ones they did with fake cgi cel shading. It looked good in the trailer.
Marvel has shit loads. A few years back there was a whole season dedicated to a Marvel crossover where Herald Thor arrives on the then current island and summons some others to prepare the island to fight Galactus.
I’ve seen >family guy >invincible >futurama >marvel >DC >TMNT >Rick and morty
What i hate is that some of them are battle pass shit that is gone forever if you don’t get it, it’s what they did with peter this season, i got him but i’ll never have superman or rick
I also hope that Leo just want to be some kind of hermit and cultivator, focus on the martial arts, eastern culture and eastern mysticism. Just because he's the leader doesn't mean become a teacher at the Dojo is his only option. It's still piss me off that they turned the spirit world and ninja magic stuff become Donnie and Venus's gimmick. This just frick up Leo's development.
>Just because he's the leader doesn't mean become a teacher at the Dojo is his only option. It's still piss me off that they turned the spirit world and ninja magic stuff become Donnie and Venus's gimmick. This just frick up Leo's development.
I always figured Raph would be the one to become a teacher after chilling out. I looked the idea of Raph using his own experiences with his problems help other kids
>Doesn't help April usually is educated and Casey is effectively damn near a stupid homeless bum
That's partly why the dynamic is cute anon. Esp if they start out disliking each other
Learning TMNT would be in fortnite made me give it a second chance and now this is what i see on YouTube, anyways it’s cool that we are also getting lego TMNT for that new “not minecraft” mode
Has April and Casey ever learned Martial Arts in any series? Anything where they’re directly learning something instead of just throwing a random roundhouse kick at someone or whacking someone with a hockey stick like a baseball bat?
These look pretty bad.

The animation from the trailer looked decent.
I'd want to see the movie before giving it a fair judgement. Forenite still looks worse than this.

It’s because these people are obsessed with blacks for some reason. It’s their go-to default for diversity shit.
Depends on rarity. The turtles are listed as Epic rarity, so IIRC they will probably be 1200 vbucks. After a quick search, lowest you can feasibly get it would be to spend 9 bucks in the store for 1000, then grind the free parts of the battle pass for the remaining 200. If you want it immediately you are spending $23 for 2800. >source: have played Fortnite.
Skins have 4 major categories
800 (green - common)
1200 (blue - rare
1500 (epic - purple)
2000 (orange - legendary)
Most skins are blue because that is the sweet spot for people it seems. This price doesn't include accessories (pickaxes, gliders, wraps, dances etc) which are usually very overpriced compared to skins. They can cost up to 1200 easily. Each. For most releases a bundle is offered in the 2000-2500 range where you will get everything with the character. Also there are special cases when the character alone is bundled with some extra (usually a built in emote or another style which means only the specific character can use it). In that case the base price of the character will be higher than the defaults listed above.
I sort of feel the opposite. It's like they tried to make a hodge podge of every appearance instead of focusing on aspects of just one or two. Like they all have different skin shades like 2003, they have different shell scratches/scars like 2012, elements of the Bay movie designs, and then the ugly-ass 1980's letter belt buckles.
I prefer the Injustice designs, where they just tried to ape the Henson suits.
I wish they had styles with more simplified designs. Like one style with no headphones/durag/belt buckle, than another that gave them all red bandanas like the Mirage run
Did they just add them? I'm playing right now, I'll check the store after this match
They debut the 22nd.
Just in time for when the kids get V-bucks for Yule.

Colors for cowards. Smoothbrains can't handle four brothers who look the same, not my problem.
I still wish the Rise Turtles lived long enough to meet the 1987 Turtles so they could just be friends
I’m glad they’re dead.
Theyll be back in Turtles Forever 2 or something, don't worry. TMNT loves it's inter-iteration crossovers.
I just want here to be less beef. Because frankly it felt both the 2003 and 2012 writers hated the Fred Wolfman versions
Hell said issue was a one-shot initially
I always thought it'd be interesting for all of the turtles to have unique masks.
Say, Raph has the durag, and Leo keeps the traditional mask. What kinda masks would the others wear?
Mikey wears a Cowabunga Carl mask
Goggles seem appropriate for Donatello
>Traditional for Leo
>Durag for Raph

Leo - traditional Rambo headband
Raph - durag
Don - cowboy mouth kerchief
Mikey - sweatband

They aren’t black. If anything, they act Japanese or white. The polar opposite of a black kid.
Not Raphael
Nothing says black like Mikey's surfer dude voice.
What the hell do you mean they're coded black? They still have a dad and can swim.
nice head canon, you fat lipped Black person
Raphael’s definitely black coded
he's a jersey wop, homosexual revisionist
Not anymore. Bayverse, Rise, definitely IDW. It’s “urban”. It’s why all human art of Raph’s black
>Not anymore
frick your revionism he'll always be a guido guinea
How does he act Italian when he’s clearly black?
All previous incarnations give him a guido accent
Brooklyn accent and black peoples can be from Brooklyn
he has a distinct brooklyn guido accent especially in the og films and 03
What makes it guido?
doesn't sound ebonic
One of the individual looks that stuck.
Also Raph is the ripped huge one of the team in most new incarnations now. Just like Donnie always has glasses, and Mikey is the short one,
>Raph is the ripped huge one of the team
This makes me sad cause Raphael is the coolest when he's like a little short angry dude with a lot of pent up frustration.

All turtles are considered slow and clumsy. That was the point , even the lightest turtles are called slow so it was funny for traditionally sluggish animal to be capable to martial arts
Yeah, but when I think of angry turtles, I think of the little ones that run up and start headbutting your feet until you go away. Not the huge ones.
I think of Alligator Snapping Turtles
It's not a new look. they used it back when all the turtles where identical and red before the oil slick era.
just because they did it once 20 years ago doesnt mean it doesnt look moronic
Frick you, it looks cool
I like how it kinda works as his hair
Yeah, sorry. It's new new "Urban" Turtles energy. At least a couple of them are going to be black-coded from now on.
>The Next Mutation styled designs.
oh no.
They presumably put whatever legit furgay was responsible for the furry men in charge of the turtles.
Better than the Street Fighter skins
I love street fighter and i love TMNT but this shit was way too expensive each turtle was 15 bucks and they are just fricking skins not real characters like injustice, you have to pay $60 for all of them and then some more if you want the rest of the TMNT items in the shop
Crapcom forgot how to ma appealing designs a decade ago
Their 3d games are so hideous
>Nickelodeon, Street Fighter, Fortnite crossovers for games, Stranger Things, Power Rangers crossovers in the comics, He-Man and Cobra Kai collaborations for the toy line
Lot of crossovers for the Turtles lately.
Mutant Mayhem and Rise were going for a more distinct look
Fortnite went with something more evergreen
I've seen people compare the Fortnite TMNT designs to Dan Mora's for the Power Rangers crossover comic
Actually on that note, how muscular should the Turtles be? Like a lot of their stats in stuff like the games or comics or cartoons have them in the 170 pound range which is pretty light heavyweight.
Depends on the tone they're going for and how willing they are to stretch the definition of teenager
I know most teens are smaller than pop culture would suggest (Mutant Mayhem leans on this hard) but there are still larger athletes in High School
They're mutants who don't have to obey human rules but they're still "teenagers"
Personally I dig TMNT going for a coming of age route where the Turtles become more adult-like as time goes on
>I know most teens are smaller than pop culture would suggest (Mutant Mayhem leans on this hard) but there are still larger athletes in High School
They're mutants who don't have to obey human rules but they're still "teenagers"
I find it’s the opposite. They’re always pretty short in most incarnations save for Bayverse and Rise Raphael. Like most teenagers are pretty close to their peak adult size around that period.
This was the peak TMNT design
>Palette swap Turtles
2003 was my first incarnation of the Turtles and I'll always cherish them but no
>I'm a huge homosexual
Thanks for sharing
mate, I like the designs but saying literal palette swaps are peak is stupid
I'm not saying you should flanderize them where Donnie's thinner than his staff, Mikey's a toddler in comparison to his brothers, and Raph's practically the Hulk
I'm just saying incorporating individual traits to their designs is good
Yes I know you're a gay you didn't have to tell me again with more words.
Aren't all Turtle designs before Bay basically Palette swap?
IDW went for more subtle body distinctions to make each member stick out
The first Nickelodeon show did the same
The show and comic could be black and white and you can still tell them apart even without their weapons
I meant teenagers as a whole across media, not just TMNT
>comic could be black and white and you can still tell them apart even without their weapons
No you can't I own an good chunk of Mirage comics even the colored editions from the 80's, you really can't tell them apart.
I meant IDW and the 2012 show
They’re both shit, so who cares?
Horrible design for April
IDW was a mess. Remember long lost brother Raphael?
Wasn't any worse than Venus
He didn’t even have his own name or nickname for like 15 years
The reincarnation stuff was homosexual
I can't tell if it's the colourist or the inker or the penciller who's at fault... does IDW even have separate artists for those concerns?
Well 2012 messed around with the sizes but pretty much. Even the old guidebooks would sometimes have it so they were all the exact same height and weight.
They also had varying length of bandanas to help sell the differences
Mikey also had freckles IIRC
Oh and don’t forget the eyes. Really humanized thek
everytime I find the origin of a reaction image unprompted I get a migraine like someone blasted a fog horn next to my skull
These look pretty bad.
Mind you, I understand why. If you made them as wide as they'd reasonably be, they'd be a bigger target and easier to hit in a FPS. And if you made them shorter than average to compensate, then they'd be harder to hit.
But they just look bad, the details shit, and the whole outfit looks like some terrible toy plastic. I think nearly any other TMNT design are better than these, although I've not seen Mutant Mayhem so there might be worse.
On the other hand, this does look worse.
>All 5'8 170
>Bald with black eyes
Why even bother listing the information for each and not put it in the center.
How much of that weight is shell anyway?
They were on separate pages in alphabetical order with several characters inbetween.
I would agree except for the single solitary good thing later iterations would add, which is that it was very smart to give them slight physical distinctiveness so they weren't all the same turtle with different-colored masks. Not that they need that from a story perspective or anything, but it really helps the audience to track who is what and remember their character traits, because while I remember Mikey with the orange mask is "the party dude", and the purple masked one "does machines", it can get confusing when they all look identical except for the mask. Making them slightly unique was a great choice, a fine caramelized onion jam gently drizzled over the top of what is other wise an enormous pile of shit on a week-old bun.
>This was the peak TMNT design
That’s not from the Sabian live action series.
For me it’s Michael Dooney
I still prefer 2012. Been around since the start, have plenty of love for the other versions (except Rise and Next Mutation), but something about the 2012 designs clicked for me.
see
2003 is ideal.
Dan Mora is so good
Because fortnite's designers are fanboys. The success of fortnite is directly linked to exactly how many of those skins they sell, so they have direct feedback which they follow.
>you must be 18 to post on Cinemaphile
why are you playing fortnite you pedo
No it doesn't.
I dunno why thy keep pushing that "covers half his head" thing on Raph, but cut that shit out.
Rise is good, you're just a gay
So when will Beckett become a Fortnite skin?
Never. They had a Star Trek emote like two years ago, but no skins yet. So, they won't add the shitty nerd cartoon from the nerd series they haven't added
Wonder who the skins would be. Kirk is the only one I would call a shoe in.
Kirk, Spock. Picard. Worfe. Sisko. Kira. Beckett and Brad.
You could literally add shit loads of characters like they've done for DC, Marvel, Star Wars.
You know who I would like? Odo, Shax would be pretty cool too.
When ever whoever owns Trek wants some more money
LMAO

Alright Anon, time to fess up and explain how you knew about this one.
I googled “skibidi toilet fortnite” and scrolled through the results. As it turns out, there’s quite a few.
Is Lower Decks even popular? I thought it was like Final Space tier
They keep renewing it for new seasons even though none of the nuTrek shows have made any money for CBS. Most of the homosexuals who post about it here are only interested because they have an autism boner for the female characters and are hopelessly obsessed with talking about how much they want to frick them. The rest of the show is incidental and it should go without saying that you should not trust the opinion of anyone with a folder full of Lower Decks porn.
How much is the bundle going to cost?
My guess is they'll be split into two.
Leo and Raph in one, Donnie and Mikey in the other.
What about April?
Is April being added too? Could sell her and Casey together.
Casey is not being added, tho
Yet.
Because they're desperate to get people to play their shit game. Haven't you figured it out by how many characters from other game genres and anime they keep adding in desperate, shallow attempts at getting new players?
Is Raph always going to have a bandanna now?
off course. He's the token black guy now
>Even Rise Raphael was played by the big black dude from Ballers
Yeah I think Raph’s going to be the “urban” one from now on. Not that I’m really complaining. I enjoy seeing him wreck shit
Because while fortnite is trash, and their art style is just generic pixar/dreamworks soiface slop, I will unironically and without a hint of sarcasm give them one truly genuine compliment: they have a specific style, they put time and effort into making sure things look right for that style, they have turned that slurry of borrowed style notes into a smoothie that is iconic and recognizable, like how pumpkin spice is a bunch of constituent spices blended together with a specific, recognizable ratio, and they absolutely stick to that style. That's why the Peter Griffin thing pissed me off when I saw it in motion, because it looks like a bad fan mod. It looks like someone used Garry's Mod or something. Outside of that, as much as I hate Fortnite, I think it's really laudable of them to have all these pop cultural references but then force them to follow the style guidelines of their universe. Peter Griffin be damned.
what styles?
Is it just me or does this look more like the Invincible comic?
Currently playing as Atom Eve.
Yeah, Ryan Ottley drew it
That's neat. I thought Nolan and Eve looked more like their comic selves.
Minus Nolan's suit
Are they in the Battle Pass or they store locked? Gonna be pissed if I have to spend more for the boys on fricking Fortnite
>Homelander is in CoD and not Fortnite
>Homelander will be in Mortal Kombat but his actor won't voice him.
Which is why Sly has my respect for voicing Rambo and Keith David for doing Spawn.
I still have no clue who Usagi and Karai are.
usagi is Japanese for rabbit
Usagi Yojbo is like a separate comic book about a rabbit samurai in version of Feudal Japan where everyone’s an anthropomorphic animal. It’s gotten a lot of crossovers with the Turtles. Karai is a Foot Clan member who’s sometimes Shredder’s daughter and usually has a thing with Leo
>Style of the 2007 movie with the proportions of the 80's toon
Unironically really good.
80's toon has more of a stocky action figure look
this is closer to the 2007 movie but with 2k3 height
What do you guys think of other Fortnite Cinemaphile designs?
I think DC's licensed characters are probably a big part of any money it's actually made in the past five years
They just had a rerun the other day for em
Are there any other than TMNT and DC? I could've sworn there were some Futurama ones they did with fake cgi cel shading. It looked good in the trailer.
Marvel has shit loads. A few years back there was a whole season dedicated to a Marvel crossover where Herald Thor arrives on the then current island and summons some others to prepare the island to fight Galactus.
Neat
.
>MCU

What i hate is that some of them are battle pass shit that is gone forever if you don’t get it, it’s what they did with peter this season, i got him but i’ll never have superman or rick
What do you mean? They run Rick in the store every so often, same with Superman.
Not true
Literally was in the store the other day
Like he's not in the store right now but I swear I saw him recently. I remember seeing hammer morty.
I don't play fortnite I just want them to be there.
They'd most Likely use mega man x characters or redesign them similar to the ruby-spears designs
If your character is in Fortnite they have to be recognizable as that character. In their own media there is no such requirement.
What did you guys think of the Injustice 2 Turtle designs
Pretty cool. Kinda remind me of the Henson ones
Right? They need balls. I wanna see Raphael busting skulls on pavement, not simping for some b***h fox lady while a girl turtle fricks a pig lesbian
I also hope that Leo just want to be some kind of hermit and cultivator, focus on the martial arts, eastern culture and eastern mysticism. Just because he's the leader doesn't mean become a teacher at the Dojo is his only option. It's still piss me off that they turned the spirit world and ninja magic stuff become Donnie and Venus's gimmick. This just frick up Leo's development.
>Just because he's the leader doesn't mean become a teacher at the Dojo is his only option. It's still piss me off that they turned the spirit world and ninja magic stuff become Donnie and Venus's gimmick. This just frick up Leo's development.
I always figured Raph would be the one to become a teacher after chilling out. I looked the idea of Raph using his own experiences with his problems help other kids
Yes, he did become a Splinter in Road Hogs comic. Another is Mutant Ninja Turtles Gaiden(fan manga).
>Road Hogs
?si=NRqwPA1RRAyXSlCm
>Doesn't help April usually is educated and Casey is effectively damn near a stupid homeless bum
That's partly why the dynamic is cute anon. Esp if they start out disliking each other
His mom has money she owned damn farm not far from in New York City
Casey a super likable guy, it's hard to hate the dude he's just fun.
here how april look like in fortnite
Show me her ass so I can properly judge it.
Nerfed her T and A but goddamn it is so much better than
>2012
>Rise
>Mutant Mayhem
About on par with 2003, can't replace the classic tho.
2012 had a nice ass
She’s a kid in 2012
Tell that to whoever was in charge of camera angles
why
2012 was just full of these completely necessary camera angles
At least Shredder's Revenge did right by that.
This is really good even with the smaller T&A
Would be a lot better with more T&A
make a version with more breasts and ass
Don't know if want but I dig the chill tomboy look.
Fortnite usually doesn't skimp on womanly assets... this probably wasn't their choice to make.
Yeah honestly they probably had a small army of lawyers and idea men breathing down the back of their necks
they used to be based
but around ch3 some troony join the 3d team and since it all the new skins have no ass or breasts
I missed Eminem, so April it is.
Is this official, it looks official and there’s fanart of it
Yeah it was data mined or something
epic didnt bothered to encrypt the skins for this month
yeah she got a whole set
Man, you can tell they pretty much designed a stylized version of Judith Hoag for April.
>here how april look like in fortnite
Here how April should look like in fortnite.
Dial it back a bit
stop being gay.
no
It looks downright comedic. Needs about a 10 percent decrease
>It looks downright comedic
D cups exist bro. Sorry you're used to propaganda.
They do but when it works with the body which doesn’t really vibe with the model
You can have D cups on a small frame bro. Not every chick with big jugs is fat. Body diversity exists. Stop trying to erase busty skinny chicks.
That’s an actual woman, your edit was kinda shit
>Put April in Fortnite but not Casey who makes more sense.
Casey always being done dirty man.
>Caseygays
April is hotger
Perfection.
Anon got banned eh
Honestly these designs are really good. though I still think they could've just been all one skin with different styles[/spoilers]
Learning TMNT would be in fortnite made me give it a second chance and now this is what i see on YouTube, anyways it’s cool that we are also getting lego TMNT for that new “not minecraft” mode
They don't. Those are clearly just Battletoads with different heads and shells added on.
Kinda? They’re both green but that was always the case. And the Turtles have always had joint pads
but why no breasts and they cover her ass?
Fortnite proportions. Simple as. Not even Soild Snake is allowed his ass
The designs look a lot like rise
Also
>Fortnite
Kys
The best Casey Jones is 1987 Casey and 1990 Casey. The others are all shit characters.
Could Elektra x Raphael work?
Kinda just Karai
The Chinese always get the good shit
I hope the TMNT collab eventually leads to an Usagi colab
Has April and Casey ever learned Martial Arts in any series? Anything where they’re directly learning something instead of just throwing a random roundhouse kick at someone or whacking someone with a hockey stick like a baseball bat?
where do I get a painting of a toaster?
>Full headband for Raphael
I want this moronic fad to die
It’s called a durag, honky.
It's a bandanna.
You need hair for it to be considered a durag.
Bald black guys wear durags all the time
Here’s Mutant Mayhem
The stills look ugly.
The animation from the trailer looked decent.
I'd want to see the movie before giving it a fair judgement. Forenite still looks worse than this.
Personally I enjoy the buff turtles more. I don’t see how they’re too tall and not wide enough
The frick is this shit?
Power Rangers crossover has the Turtles develop technology to camouflage as humans. They chose black guys
Raph is distinguished by his traps
Reverted to the original forms, aka black coded guys
>original forms
homie THEY'RE USING HOLOGRAMS
Bruh, the TMNT are depicted as white or reincarnated Japanese kids and NOBODY bats an eye
A non-canon crossover comic has them use black disguises and suddenly people lose their fricking shit
>fatherless orphans that grew up in the slums
I can kinda see the turtles as being black coded
That’s racist.
WOW it's almost like people on the internet are perpetually bored and make themselves outraged for entertainment and have been doing that consistently for like 15 years at this point
Where is the second image from?
IDW
The Turtles and Splinter are reincarnations of feudal Japanese people
Huh? IDW had them as lab experiments that April named and spilt ooze on them.
It's both
They’re both.
Looks like the art got way worse somehow
they change artists fairely often man
Why do they look like Salad Fingers?
Because reincarnated Japanese kids makes sense with the whole NINJA thing. Making them black is just stupid.
We Wuz Ninjaz
>Making them black is just stupid.
THEY'RE
USING
HOLOGRAMS
like that makes a difference
What the frick do you they should look then in the context of the book?
They're using Morphin Grid tech to blend in
turtles should be japanese like ther rat dad
They're adopted
By the logic that Splinter's from Japan, the turtles would be Native American assuming they're all red-eared sliders which is the most common kind of pet turtle
So they're wearing blackface.
>What the frick do you they should look then
Not black.
So white Turtles better then?
He has a point. Ninjas want a disguise that will let them slip by, not get hassled by the cops. Like the Beastie Boys, the turtles are more like New York israelites who act black.
>So white Turtles better then?
Unironically yes, and if not white then how about asian? You know the one group that constantly gets neglected by all these buttholes constantly screaming about diversity and inclusion? Seriously how do you see Japanese kids re-incarnated as mutant turtles and think "yes, they should definitely be black!"
Reincarnation doesn't dictate race you nimrod and even then "Japanese kids reincarnated" is specific to the mainline IDW stuff
The MMPR crossover takes place in its own canon where it has its own rules
They brought back lily white Baxter Stockman for said crossover and none of you frickers noticed
>lily white Baxter Stockman
Making characters white is fine.
>Unironically yes, and if not white then how about asian? You know the one group that constantly gets neglected by all these buttholes constantly screaming about diversity and inclusion? Seriously how do you see Japanese kids re-incarnated as mutant turtles and think "yes, they should definitely be black!"
Raphael acts black
>Raphael acts black
No he doesn't. He acts like a generic Brooklyn tough guy.
>Anger issues at the drop of a hat
>Always thinking he should br the one in charge
>Anti intellectual since all he’s good at is sports
>Outright portray by a black guy in Rise where his favorite genre is soul music
>Can dish out insults but can’t take them without chimping out
All of these can apply to Micks or Guidos or the Poles
Get a load of this frickin' guy. Never met an Italian?
It’s because these people are obsessed with blacks for some reason. It’s their go-to default for diversity shit.
well to be fair if an inhuman animal with a penchant for violence was to be turned into a human, they'd probably end up black
>everyone looks the same except Don has headphones
Why do 80s kids hate change?
shut the hell up about April and black holograms, I want a thread about the damn turtles
so why did Rise suck so much?
It gave the new standard of april being black
Ugly character designs along with near-constant jokes that are rarely funny instead just obnoxious.
How much do Fortnite skins cost? I'm pretty meh on the game but I wouldn't mind dropping a couple bucks to goof off as my boy Mikey.
Depends on rarity. The turtles are listed as Epic rarity, so IIRC they will probably be 1200 vbucks. After a quick search, lowest you can feasibly get it would be to spend 9 bucks in the store for 1000, then grind the free parts of the battle pass for the remaining 200. If you want it immediately you are spending $23 for 2800.
>source: have played Fortnite.
Skins have 4 major categories
800 (green - common)
1200 (blue - rare
1500 (epic - purple)
2000 (orange - legendary)
Most skins are blue because that is the sweet spot for people it seems. This price doesn't include accessories (pickaxes, gliders, wraps, dances etc) which are usually very overpriced compared to skins. They can cost up to 1200 easily. Each. For most releases a bundle is offered in the 2000-2500 range where you will get everything with the character. Also there are special cases when the character alone is bundled with some extra (usually a built in emote or another style which means only the specific character can use it). In that case the base price of the character will be higher than the defaults listed above.
they're appealing to boys/men (fortnite player base) instead of zoomer women (the only people who watch western cartoons)
The game is dead as soon as they start adding older woman skins. Literally no one would but them
>initial belt buckles
I don't know why designers keep using those beyond nostalgia. It ruins the whole look.
it’s for casuals
The colored masks already do the job of identification in a better and more subtle way. initial belt buckles make them look like kids.
They are kids
actual prepubescent children not teenagers.
Why do we collab so much turtlebros?
I’m still waiting for the Scooby-Doo x Turtles cartoon that might happen someday
They're entry level American superheroes who aren't Marvel/DC AND there's four of them so you can sell four times the amount of content
I now want a Marvel x TMNT team up
I'm just a Fortnite player, but I think it's excellent when an IP is easy to collab with.
TMNT is iconic and GaaS-type games are always scrounging for more skins and events to keep engagement and player retention up.
Fortnite cares
I sort of feel the opposite. It's like they tried to make a hodge podge of every appearance instead of focusing on aspects of just one or two. Like they all have different skin shades like 2003, they have different shell scratches/scars like 2012, elements of the Bay movie designs, and then the ugly-ass 1980's letter belt buckles.
I prefer the Injustice designs, where they just tried to ape the Henson suits.
I wish they had styles with more simplified designs. Like one style with no headphones/durag/belt buckle, than another that gave them all red bandanas like the Mirage run
Donnie has no headphone style
Question for Turtlegays. Would you rather the Turtles fight Ninjago, RWBY, Gargoyles or Street Sharks on Death Battle?
None because Death Battle is homosexual
anyway tonight are coming
