New TMNT Toon Direction decided (Update: Early designs revealed)

Well, an easy, and simple solution is this. With the turtles and Splinter gone for 8 months, April and Casey make it official and have a daughter. She'd still be a baby, but it would get the ball rolling.
 
I don't think this is a hoax. 4Kids seems to be more interactive with their fans now than they ever have been at the past. I mean, they asked kids to watch, rate, and give feedback on Rocket Monkeys to get a general opinion on the show, plus they have their newly added TMNT blog where viewers can ask questions and whatnot.

Heh, if you read the comments on the "Pick a Theme" page, some of the comments are quite hilarious. Case in point:








You know, I kinda agree with psychicboy. I would probably vote for Mikey's theme, if I could. Having "Soy Uno Tortuguita" as a theme would be pretty damn funny.
 
Where the streamlined batman designs the one with the joker who had no lips? I hated that design myself, personally... and even Bruce Timm(if memory serves) said somewhere some of those designs didn't work.
 
Get the ball rolling towards what? Shadow would need to be at least 10 before she became a viable non-annoying character, and even older if you want her to resemble her comic book counterpart--there's no way the series is going to last that long. Unless you magically age her or create a large chronological time gap, we'd still be left with just a baby, and not the character fans allegedly want to see.

While I personally wouldn't have much of a problem with Casey and April becoming parents--it could make for some interesting stories, and it be kind of cool, in part because it's so unusual to see a couple becoming parents during the course of a series (the only ones that come to mind are the Flinstone and Xanatos families)--I'd prefer the baby to be simply a background detail, and not a plot device or Mcguffin. I certainly don't want to see her magically aged to teenagedom.
 
Ninja Turtles done Jackie Chan Adventures/The Batman style?

That'd look interesting....

Weird, but interesting.

Fast Forward was done by Khary Randolph (as has been a large portion of the TMNT2K3 work) so I wonder if they'll keep him or what...
 
#1-OK, if a tad generic. Of all the themes, this one screams "4Kids" the loudest.

#2-For the love of cake, 4Kids, STOP RAPPING!

#3-Better than #2 (though that wouldn't take much), but it sounds more like something you'd hear on one of those Stomp the Yard movies than TMNT.

#4-I actually liked this one, but I admit I have a soft spot for techno. Seems better suited for Fast Forward than for the present timeline, though.

#5-All right. For some reason this one reminded me of that Double Dragon movie with Alyssa Milano.

#6-Very cinematic sounding, which is why I don't think it'll be chosen. It sounds more like the closing theme from a TMNT movie than the opening theme for the show.
 
Easy. Have one season where Shadow is a baby. The next season takes place a few years later where she's a toddler.

Then eventually, assuming the show isn't cancelled, they go forward a few years to the Tales V. 2 era where she's a teenager.
