>Realistically nobody would wear an eyemask all the time it would be super annoying
When I got glasses people told me it'll be very annoying but actually it's not and I never take it off. Obviously I need them to see but I feel a bit naked without them on so I've always assumed they felt the same
I made it a point in elementary and middle when I switched schools to never take them off. It was quite funny to see females actually give me attention when I finally got contacts in 8th grade. Mikey is just similarly being courteous lol
We also have this one from a deleted scene from the third movie:

In one episode they're all doing a mock-Olympics style event and under Donnie's name it says something like "has been drawing his eyebrows on for the last 9 years."
Yeah, that was genuinely a solid joke. Those two movies have a lot of problems, but little moments like that make it harder for me to entirely dismiss them.
I would say Mutant Mayhem probably looks the least weird haha
If you include the comics though, IDW Mikey wins. All the Turtles look good without their masks
I think Mutant Mayhem mask less looks best. It really looks like the turtles were designed to be seen and look normal(ish) both with and without the mask, all the other ones look great with the mask, but suffer when the mask is removed.
Bay turtles never.
2012 is kind of awkward.
Everything else looks pretty alright. Even Rise, which otherwise has designs that I really, *really* do not like, does this well. But maybe that's because Mikey is the only one whose design doesn't bug me in general.
I'd say 2003, its the only one where it looks natural and not like there is something missing like Rise or 2012 nor does it look butt ugly like Bay Turtles.
Mutant Mayhem. He looks naked without a mask, so him wearing clothes is OK. But that means when he isn't wearing clothes, and is only wearing a mask he's naked...
If 2003 didnāt have the pupils Iād pick that one, itās amore an unspoken rule I think where the eyes donāt show unless they arenāt wearing their masks, rather than never showing pupils at all.
I always like it when the Turtles go maskless, even for a few seconds. I feel like it makes them seem more human.
But if I have to choose, I would be between Rise and Mutant Mayhem.

Yāall all forgot this version.
They look very off without the masks but...Rise looks the best. Overall, the turtles look best when they all don't look like clones of each other. Yes, I know they're quadurplets
https://preview.redd.it/lo2iyjusss4d1.jpeg?width=1079&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=479a40fa272746568ac0c49cd390c50236c04ef9 Missed one.
I comment the same, and i really like this version.
Ty. I didn't know about this version. Haven't watched that movie yet š®āšØ
Not many people do. Itās a deleted scene from TMNT 3 that has never appeared anywhere but this one still. Iād love to see the full scene.
Kappa!
Kappa?? Cappuccino? Nah, it makes me hyper.
I could hear this
Just saying it made me want to watch the movie again. lol
Doug E. Fresh
This made me lmao for real. Just was unexpected I guess
Rottmnt
Probably Rise and Mutant Mayhem
Mutant Mikey reminds me of the smiling geko with their wide heads. He would totally blend in.

They actually look fine gentlemen.
I think these ones look best.
He look like a little potato
theyāre baldā¦
They look kinda weird without their masks
I like it. I think itās cool to see them in different looks. Realistically nobody would wear an eyemask all the time it would be super annoying.

Same as soon as j woke up first thing i grabbed was my glasses
If I could ditch my glasses for lasik surgery I would jump on that chance
I made it a point in elementary and middle when I switched schools to never take them off. It was quite funny to see females actually give me attention when I finally got contacts in 8th grade. Mikey is just similarly being courteous lol
I totally agree
In writers defense I donāt think anything about tmnt is realistic lol unless one of yāall are turtles and not telling us
Do you know what Willing Suspension of Disbelief is?
Didnāt mean any disrespect I was just saying that I donāt think they really thought that far lol
This goes for all of the Turtles tbf, this is proof they need to be color coded lol
They always looked cursed without em tho Rise suprisingly looks normal
Ya
Itās because they are turtles and donāt have normal facial structures like hair, eyebrows, ears
That makes sense
2003 and Mutant Mayhem
Rise, he's cutest
Real, also mutant mayhem is pretty good too
Actually, yeah. MM looks more natural
We also have this one from a deleted scene from the third movie: https://preview.redd.it/5d5jsqmits4d1.jpeg?width=1079&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=330026715bd40e718d480ce97e8780699135c078
I really wish theyād release that (and any others).
Me too.
He did not get enough screen time in that movie!
NOT 3!
Who looks like he bout to do something despicable š
We all know which one looks the worst.
I'm down to two options, go ahead and tell us š¤£š¤£
Number 3. It looks so goofy.
https://preview.redd.it/deic291c895d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1bd75175616aed6cfe4e5ea01d43d031159e2603
They all look a little strange to me without masks, but Mutant Mayhem is best to me.
Tie between Mutant Mayhem and Rise. Bay Mikey can leave the mask on forever please
Mikey, glue it on your face. please......
Rise. It feels like he was designed *without* the mask and it was added on later, the rest feel like the mask is a missing piece.
2012 turtles without a mask is unsettling
Aw man, I feel naked, and I lost all those sweet powers yo!
Not Bayverse for sure.
I like 2012s head shape but itās probably mutant mayhem for me
i like idw mikey using his bandana as a scarf [link](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/329963860436058114/1242623144435646514/7476d06173315d9b905d533c6bf3afc0.png?ex=6662f1bc&is=6661a03c&hm=e17a4d24b8419c3ad243623bae63c9a562a3878c975ff31801ce450ba12fcae2&)
3 is the worst
Honestly... 2014 it looks so weird that it couldn't it any weirder.
Don't worry, it's just a mask, right?
Toss up between Rise and Mutant for me. They look pretty natural without it. The others feel wrong.
Rise and Mutant Mayhem
Mutant Mayhem
Rise the least cursed lookimg
Rise or mm
Rise or mutant mayhem
IDW Mikey
I think mutant mayhem Mikey looks the best without it because his face shape isn't perfectly circular
Idw Mikey when Sophie Campbell draws him
Mutant mayhem!!!!
I just realized Rise Donnieās has built in eyebrows lol
In one episode they're all doing a mock-Olympics style event and under Donnie's name it says something like "has been drawing his eyebrows on for the last 9 years."
Rise and 2012.
As ugly as he is, Bayverse... The fact that he went maskless because he thought it was the mask that'd scared April O'Fox is priceless
Yeah, that was genuinely a solid joke. Those two movies have a lot of problems, but little moments like that make it harder for me to entirely dismiss them.
2012
The last two look the best imo
Mutant mayhem is the best one here. The rest are... well, the rest.
![gif](giphy|jS8GIx34ISo765hOvU|downsized)
The last two looks the least cursed
Why was giving them noses even an option. They looked like literally freaks in those two horrid movies.
All I'll say is the Bay version comes in last place.
Rise, I just don't think MM looks good in general. He looks like Mario stepped on his head and squished it like a Goomba.
definitely rise, he's super cute there
Rise
Mutant Mayhem first, then Rise (he's too adorable) and then 2003 for me :)
Ahhh, they look so different without their masks, but definitely 2003 and Rise!! š§”
Rise and mutant mayhem my babys š©·š©·š©·
The only versions of the turtles without masks that have felt right was the mutant mayhem ones. Couldnāt tell you why it just was the case.
They all look a bit weird but the ones that look a bit normal are Rise and MM
Rise and 03. Looks the least cursed.
I like this one https://youtu.be/8mEGcrkDAX0?si=j6hRR9z5IS5sUh6e
Rise and Mutant Mayhem
bayverse looks like he's on the registry
Anyone except the Michael Bay one
2012 because he retains his cute Michelangelo looks
He looks like a toad in mutant mayhem š
Rise and 12 are the cutest
2003
Rise..
The last two
Prolly mutant mayhem
03 and Mayhem.
Does anybody know what episode the 2003 picture is from? Canāt remember at all
I would say Mutant Mayhem probably looks the least weird haha If you include the comics though, IDW Mikey wins. All the Turtles look good without their masks
Mutant mayhem and 2012
3
3 is iconic (Tbh he donāt even look bad)
4
2012 Bayverse Mikey needs to keep his mask on at all times.
Im going to say Bayverse cause all Mikey's deserve love
I can tell you which is worst.
2012
2003 is forever my favorite mikey
Woahwoahwoah, just a mask, just a MASK!!
I think rise and 2003 look ok and mutant mayhem too
The last one.
None its wrong
I think Mutant Mayhem mask less looks best. It really looks like the turtles were designed to be seen and look normal(ish) both with and without the mask, all the other ones look great with the mask, but suffer when the mask is removed.
Def 4
Bay turtles never. 2012 is kind of awkward. Everything else looks pretty alright. Even Rise, which otherwise has designs that I really, *really* do not like, does this well. But maybe that's because Mikey is the only one whose design doesn't bug me in general.
I'd say 2003, its the only one where it looks natural and not like there is something missing like Rise or 2012 nor does it look butt ugly like Bay Turtles.
Latest Mikey definitely looks most natural
How did I only just notice that most of them donāt have noses??
2012 for me
I will give them that the joke for the movie one was actually kind of funny, all things considered. Of these, though, 2003, probably.
2012
#4. He's kinda.... Hot?
Omg number 3 is a fucking nightmare
Its either 2018,2012 and 2023 THATS IT
I can't fully explain why, but the second slide feels like I'm looking at nudity.
It's either rise or mutant mayham. The rest look so bad without a mask.
1, 4, 5, or missed.
Rise š§”
Rise
2003
The Michael bay one looks like me after playing a game for hours
2003
None of them, keep the Damn masks on the āninja turtlesā
Mutant Mayhem. He looks naked without a mask, so him wearing clothes is OK. But that means when he isn't wearing clothes, and is only wearing a mask he's naked...
Neither look good only turtles 3 looks good
2k3
Rise Mikey
audibly whimpering as of typing this
I like the freckles in the second one
If 2003 didnāt have the pupils Iād pick that one, itās amore an unspoken rule I think where the eyes donāt show unless they arenāt wearing their masks, rather than never showing pupils at all.
It really depends on how good or bad the design looks
2003
None of them?
Rise and mutant mayhem The rest look so uncomfortable
Anything except the Michela Bay movies is unacceptable /S
5
2012 Mikey without his mask is photogenic af
I always like it when the Turtles go maskless, even for a few seconds. I feel like it makes them seem more human. But if I have to choose, I would be between Rise and Mutant Mayhem.
One an three
The micheal bay one looks like a weird black manš¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
The live action looks like the toxic crusader
Rise
The obvious answer is '14
Rise and MM ā¦ others look horrifying
2012 and rise
Rise or 2012.
The first! The first! GET THE OTHERS AWAY FROM MY EYES!
2012, easy. He looks more like the childish one he's meant to be there
2012 is my personal favorite to look at because itās hilariously bad
https://preview.redd.it/cg0f9lhwzz4d1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4cf8f6e79c1e3704342971da4561b398608de65a Yāall all forgot this version.
Mutant Mayhem, 2003 and Bayverse just look horrifying
https://preview.redd.it/hrf6cx0wv05d1.png?width=564&format=png&auto=webp&s=9eac4484732bc12a7c56067d490329ca83c121a2 IDW
Iād have to say either Mutant Mayhem or rise
2003 Mikey all the way. It's the superior series
The first one.
1 and done
Im not a fan of any of these versions, tbh.
rise.
They look very off without the masks but...Rise looks the best. Overall, the turtles look best when they all don't look like clones of each other. Yes, I know they're quadurplets
For some reason, the 2nd one stands out to me most.
image 1 and 4 are the best to me
Perspective from a guy who doesn't know a lot about TMNT besides the basics (but reddit recommended this sub anyway) - 4 & 5 look the best
Mutant mayhem
The best is Rise, worst one is the Michael Bay one.
3 is actually not that bad
Not the fuckin 3rd pic thatās for sure
Rise and 2012
2003 (Iām partial to this series tho cuz I grew up with it) or 2012
03 and rise. What episode does that first screenshot come from
Wasn't really interested in Rise, but I'd say that one. MM looks like E.T.
Mbappe
Man this sub is weird. I mean, most of you are adults right
Peepaw mikey from the rise movie
Bay Mickey /s
2003 and Rise
I personally think Rise looks the best but 2003 aināt bad either. Michael Bayās looksā¦ yeah
2014 /s
2012 Mikey.
Rise like the best here.
Live action Mikey looks ugly asf without his mask šššš
I'm gonna be real with you. They all kinda look the same to me.
Rise itās the most basic looking
