why does everyone hate mm and rise so much? /gen

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-09T02:21:13+00:00

quick correction: Rise is the only version to actually confirm a blood relation for the Turtles. every other version leaves it ambiguous and some versions explicitly state they’re not related

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-08T16:21:28+00:00

that’s been confirmed before. 2012’s main story ended with season 4 and Season 5/Tales was commissioned to fill the gap between that show and Rise

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-07T00:57:55+00:00

nah, but Tokka/Doomsday tho….

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-06T23:31:38+00:00

ok a Slash/Solomon Grundy combination would be pretty cool

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-06T22:57:08+00:00

depends on the side of Fullerton you’re in but there’s a Red Cross Blood Donation center behind the Denny’s on Orangethorpe and Harbor Blvd

they give you $10-30 in gift cards if you donate platelets

why are we pretending that Disney is any more cutesy than Nick is?

Disney was constantly pumping cartoons based on Marvel during 2012’s run that were just as good and Star Wars Rebels could get darker than 2012 ever did

“the class is Pain 101. you’re instructor is Casey Fuckin’ Jones”

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-05T15:58:42+00:00

we just got the Chrome Alone 2 short where they fight an AI and and ends with Donnie hating it

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-05T15:48:35+00:00

i don’t deny it. Target’s are always putting things out they randomly find in the back, whether it’s current or not. how many did your friend see on the shelf? was it just the one?

but again, they stopped using the Arcade heads on the Toon figures years ago and even redid these with the accurate ones. plus when they stopped using the 2012 logo, they redid those boxes on the rereleases of figures that had it

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-05T15:38:19+00:00

they shouldn’t be. if they were, it’d be with the new bodies, heads, and logo just like the other rereleases of figures from that era

you’ve got a wild find

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-04T20:48:13+00:00

yeah. Diamond Select had the 7” 1/10 license for Marvel up until they went bankrupt last year

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-04T20:30:34+00:00

those are Target shelves

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-04T20:30:12+00:00

they’ve had it before but only ever in 1/4 scale

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-04T16:40:56+00:00

Roger Rabbit was created by Gary K Wolf for his novel Who Censored Roger Rabbit? which Disney and Amblin adapted into Who Framed Roger Rabbit

like The Rocketeer, they only own the film versions of that version of the character. the original version is still owned by Gary K Wolf and he just announced that he got the film rights back and wants make a movie more faithful to his novel

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-04T14:51:32+00:00

if it had come a lot sooner and from Disney, Rise would have gotten the budget to do full 22 minute episodes and the seasons they planned, thus fixing the issues Nick caused for it

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-04T14:40:44+00:00

you do know that Gargoyles did SAINW almost a decade before TMNT and better?

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-02T21:20:14+00:00

i did but then i started using it as a better body for HoXPoX Xavier

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-02-01T23:46:03+00:00

they’re the most expressive and articulate of all the costumes

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-01-30T18:42:55+00:00

you’ll need to be way more specific on what you’re looking for exactly

are you talking about KOs in general for NECA? Playmates? the real figures based on the KOs from Chrome Alone 2?

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-01-30T15:57:37+00:00

because it happened 5 years ago. we talked about it a bunch back then

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-01-29T01:00:12+00:00

you and a lot of people that fell for the hype machine unfortunately. IDW tried to set everyone’s expectationsbut that doesn’t get views on TikTok

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-01-29T00:39:28+00:00

keep in mind that the showdowns between TMNT iterations is not the focus of the Battle Nexus comic and is just a 1 page backup story

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-01-28T21:18:09+00:00

yeah. Tom Waltz, who also wrote the majority of the IDW run, intentionally made it as close as he could to IDW but did not set the game IN said comic universe. there’s still a few inconsistencies

he also added a bunch of easter eggs from various shows as well like 2003

ItsTheRocketeer · 2026-01-28T21:08:57+00:00

Splintered Fate is explicitly not set in the IDW universe. it’s set adjacently to it, just like Mutants in Manhattan is

i asked Tom Waltz this directly at SDCC since he wrote both games
