I feel like Black Hook, Buster Gallon, and Buffalo Crush are in a polyamorous relationship after watching their episodes.

Like, you CANNOT tell me that Black Hook seemed to be heartbroken when he saw Buster Gallon and Buffalo Crush on Jun's side.

Also, I CANNOT get over how Buffalo Crush IMMEDIATELY rushed over to their old HQ when he saw the damage and immediately started crying when he saw Black Hook alive and was heartbroken when Black Hook left.

Raph Is A Great Strategist

Numerous times in the show Raph has shown to have a preference for straightforwardly punching his problems away rather than think up a more complex solution. Like how his immediate fix to getting Mayhem out of the mirror in Mystic Library was to punch everything in the bathroom but the mirror. However, when Raph understands the situation requires more in depth strategy, he’s shown to be an incredibly capable tactician.

(long post ahead!)

In nearly all the plot heavy episodes like Shadow of Evil, Many Unhappy Returns, and the season finales, Raph gets moments where he’s highlighted for his strategic thinking. In Insane in the Mama Train, he’s the one who figures out which eyeball-button goes to the front car with the dark armor, because “‘it was the only button [the Foot Clan] didn’t want me to press!’” [21:05]. He’s also the one who came up with the scheme to defeat all the (known) combatants in the train, with Leo specifically attributing Raph as the deviser during their mind meld [19:46]. In Many Unhappy Returns, after spending a single night waylaying the Shredder, Raph formulated a plan using all the tricks the team learned, seamlessly transitioning the mystic collar Leo acquired into it [19:53], to defeating the Shredder. Additionally, he’s repeatedly called for a retreat during fights, like in Shadow of Evil, Shreddy or Not (Finale pt 2), and the movie, when he can tactically recognize that a battle couldn’t be won. Each time, the show/movie implied that that was the right call, for the family to lose the fight but win the war.

And it’s not just that Raph is good at strategy when he’s pushed to be more serious; the show characterizes him as passionate about creating plans, he enjoys doing it. Literally in the first episode, Mystic Mayhem, after the turtles’ initial plan failed of getting Splinter out of the living room to touch his Do-Not-Touch Cabinet, Raph immediately started devising a new plan that involved “ten chickens [and] a gallon of rubber cement” [9:35]. It was convoluted, sure, and they didn’t end up using it, but it was inventive and the opposite of reluctant. This is also shown in Bug Busters, where Raph planned out dousing Mikey in honey to attract the oozequitoes [2:52]; Snow Day, with the idea to freeze Ghost Bear like in Jupiter Jim Pluto Vacation 4; and Raph’s Ride-Along (and also Bad Hair Day), where Mind Raph created multiple schemes to get the criminals arrested. The show wouldn’t have made Raph be so creative with his plans if they were trying to characterize him as someone who didn’t like strategizing.

So does why Raph do stupid shit sometimes where he doesn’t think things through at all? Well, even though Raph is good at strategy and enjoys doing it, it’s clear his immediate impulse is still “punch the problem in the face”. In fact, all the turtle boys contain the fascinating dichotomy of being incredibly smart in some areas, and the dumbest teenagers alive in others. Just look at Donnie. It’s also how Raph is a loving protective older brother, and the guy who shoved Leo into a wall so hard he disappeared in one frame for shits and giggles (The Mutant Menace x). None of this means that Raph is bad at strategy though.

tldr: Yeah, Raph has a lot of dumb and, frankly, insane moments in the show, but he’s still an incredible tactician who’s plans consistently saved his family and sometimes the world. He's a great strategist.

I had the absolute pleasure of doing the switcharound art meme with SidVenBlu and Bemmun over on Twitter! I was so nervous I wouldn't do their art justice when it came my turn, but in the end I learned a lot and had fun! And now we all got more art of our favorite robots! <3

Check out their full pieces here!:

Pt. 2

I forgot to mention this takes place after the ending

Scenario:

Jun's older sibling, (you), finally returns home after a long work trip and ends up finding unexpected company.

°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°

Dexter:

-You were introduced to him via Jun, obviously. Not on a personal level though, he was introduced to you at the same time with everyone else

-His first thought of you was 'Jun 2.0' and he was right. Except you're less... 'Clumsy' than he is

-He's actually quite pleased that there's someone that's actually mature (according to him)

-He kept asking things like, 'are you actually his sibling?', 'how come your hair is blue and not brown?', 'why are you the older one?', and so on

-If you love nature, then he loves you in a friendly manner

-No seriously this dude was beaming when he finds out

-Sometimes you bring him to a place where no other humans had been and the two of you would just hang out

Fleta Z:

-When visiting your unbiological uncle, Ed, you were just expecting him and Jun, not a whole plane turned robot

-The two of you were weary of each other, but the tension passed when Fleta Z was told you were Jun's sibling

-Nothing much happened between the two of you after that

-Until you caught him with his Flute, and you two ended being good friends

-He honestly thought you were just trying to get to know him because of Jun, but when he ends up in the wrong... Well, he apologized and blew you a tune with his flute

-You find his tune to be calming, and he finds your presence comfortable to be with

Metal Crush:

-Jun's mom introduced you to him

-You thought Jun's mom was a little cray-cray because of him, yet the whole time he was polite

-Maybe it's just how he looked that terrified you, seeing how friendly the two of you actually are made you want to know more

-When he can't spend time with Jun, Jun's mom, or anyone else, he goes to you

-He's actually ecstatic whenever you two hangout

-His speech sometimes confused you, but that didn't stop the two of you from becoming good friends

-He's just glad to have someone actually enjoy his company for once, not counting Jun's mom because she already enjoyed having him around

-Black Hook approved

Buster Gallon:

-You honestly thought you were going to become enemies instead of friends

-The two of you did become friends however, by making fun of each other

-Both of you knew not to go too far, but just enough to make it look like a friendly rivalry (basically teasing on the next level)

-Buster Gallon rebuilt his threee 'mini me's' and you were having the time of your life with them

-Buster's a little pissed off but doesn't really care about it

-Instead the five of you ended up making your own friend group

-The five of you are what the others call 'Hell spawn'

-No seriously, Jun called you guys that. And Buster's little pals annoyed him the entire day

-Black Hook... approved?

Black Hook:

-Not exactly the kind of bot to panic when someone sees him, instead he took you to Jun

-He ended up surprising himself when he finds out you two are related

-He asked you for your name and that's it

-He was content with that, but you weren't. You made it your mission to get to know your captor better, out of spite

-You two ends up being on the same frequency and boy was that an interesting day

-He took you for a ride and you two literally plays pirate with each other, at least no one else was there to see

-Well there's Fleta Z flying by, but he doesn't care (Black Hook threatened him)

-Overall the two of you became great friends and his sons crew members was glad for that

Heavy Iron:

-Well he terrified you on accident when he almost stepped on you when you first met

-He apologized after (with the help of Jun), but seeing you still shaken up he decided to do something nice for you (also with Jun's help)

-Yeah he failed

-Hey, it's the thought that counts

-When Jun told you that he's the one who caused his arm to hurt, you threw a shoe at him. It's a surprise you didn't get thrown something in your face by him

-The two of you only became friends after getting into an accident

-Turns out you two work great together

-You the brain and he's the brawn, you two practically saved yourselves

-And after that the both of you become great friends! Well, it took a few weeks for Heavy Iron to suck up his ego, but it worked

°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°

I don't think i tackled Heavy Iron's character correctly 😞

Safe to say i think i did great

Hope y'all liked this <3

How OLD are the Metal Cardbots?

Like, this question has been messing with my brain for hours.

I think there is no confirmation of how much their human age would be, only that they are thousands of years older than any human because they are alien robots.

But I have some headcanons ☆
