I think something more like the 2003 battle shell would be more suited to live action.



Maybe a mix of that and the 80s van.

While I'm happy that they're incorporating the van, I think it would look better if it was made out of garbage -- scrounged together using spare parts found in a junk yard. This thing has is shrinkwrapped for Pete's sake. It looks like a pest control van.

I'm somewhat annoyed that between this and the Raphael;s Disguise thing, they're basically repeating the 90's movie!
DO SOMETHING NEW AND ORIGINAL with the turtles. Base it on the damn IDW series or even the Mirage one! The 80's cartoon and the 90's movies have already seeped into pop-culture as it is, please don't tread the same steps.

@worldbreaker: New and Original in this context means base it off of something that hasn't been done before. As i said, the 80's series and the movie have seeped so heavily into Pop-culture, it's time to do something different, as the IDW series did. That series IS new and original, and when adapted to the movies, would still be new and original when compared to the older franchise.

Yea, Life's easier if you stop to think about things before pretending to be an internet white knight, you git.

It could be a lot worse. I'm okay with this. At least Michael Bay didn't make it a Ferrari.

I was expecting it to look more like an armored van/truck or something. This doesn't look like it would offer very much protection.
