'''''Man, I LOVE being a Turtle!!!'''''
Line 44:
* [[All Your Base Are Belong to Us]]: Several times, across incarnations more faithful to the original comic books, the attack on April's shop being the quintessential example.
* [[Alternate Company Equivalent]]: The Justice Force and its members, to varying degrees.
* [[Alternate Continuity]]:
* [[Alternate Universe]]
* [[Animal Nemesis]]: The feud between Oroku Nagi and Hamato Yoshi is taken up by Nagi's brother and Yoshi's pet rat, and the Turtles themselves when they mutate.
Line 81:
* [[City of Adventure]]: New York City, as well as Northampton, MA in the Mirage comics and 4Kids 'toon.
* [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: Since the original comic was in black and white, there wasn't much of this to begin with as each turtle was identified by their [[Weapon of Choice]]. Even the special colored issues had the bandana masks they wear all red. The original cartoon gave the turtles different color bandannas (which have since been used in every successive incarnation) and the action figures, different skin colors (ignored until the 2003 cartoon).
** The Archie comic series [[Lampshade
** The newspaper strip don't had different masc color since it were in black and white, but in opposite to the original comic the turtles here have their initials on their belts instead.
*** That's taken from the 1987 cartoon.
Line 105:
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Being teenagers, all four of them usually do it at some point, but Raphael is the one that's known for it the most.
** Even Master Splinter has his dry humor moments.
* [[Did Not Do the Research]]: Several
** The earlier episodes of the 1987 series feature numerous references to the turtles as amphibians, by both them and others. This was corrected later on, and in one episode the turtles were even offended when called amphibians.
** The Vol. 4 of the comic book series, they rectify Michelangelo's name to the correct spelling.
Line 167:
* [[Mistaken for Aliens]]: Occurs to the turtles a lot, once the existence of aliens is actually made known to the general population.
* [[Mobile Suit Human]]: The alien Utroms used robotic exoskeletons to hide among humans while stranded on Earth.
* [[Monochromatic Eyes]]: Several incarnations of the
* [[Mooks]]: Of all stripes, the most common and consistent being the Foot Ninja.
* [[Morally-Ambiguous Doctorate]]: Dr. Dome, Dr. Malignus.
Line 178:
* [[Non-Mammal Mammaries]]: Venus de Milo
* [[No Transhumanism Allowed]]: Partial aversion. The 4Kids series has a cyborg and an infomorph, but only villains are non-organic, for the most part. Honeycutt, an [[Brain Uploading|uploaded man]], is a subversion.
* [[Old Superhero
* [[Opposites Attract]]: April and Casey.
* [[Papa Wolf]]: Splinter.
Line 219:
* [[Time Police]]: Renet and Lord Simultaneous, who form part of a larger, if unseen, organization.
* [[Title Theme Tune]]: All of the western cartoon themes.
* [[Totally Radical]]: They live in [[Big Applesauce|New York City]], but sound like a bunch of [[Surfer Dude|surfers]] from [[American Accents|Southern California]]. (''Especially'' Michelangelo, and
*** It's ''usually'' only Mikey. Raph has a Brooklyn accent in the films too, and even in the Fred Wolf cartoon series Mikey was the only one to sound like a surfer dude, though they all used "Cowabunga."
* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Pizza, at least in the Fred Wolf cartoon and movies.
Line 233:
* [[Volleying Insults]]: Done playfully between Casey and Raph in the Mirage comics, in a scene which was later adapted for the first movie and 4Kids cartoon.
* [[Web Comics]]: Online fan comic/manga "MNT Gaiden"
* [[Weirdness Magnet
* [[Widget Series]]: Seriously, the only reason this franchise makes any sense is because we're so used to it.
