When you find a TMNT fan work that depicts Mikeys accurately:

(Mikeys can be a bit dumb and/or a bit naive. Mikey will literally say things like “careful guys this could be a trap” while they could not be more clearly in a trap and he’s just the last turtle to realize that it IS in a trap.)

I PRESENT TO YOU, THE MIKEY CHEETO PUFFS

Has anyone seen the deleted TMNT 2007 scenes?

Donnie and Mikey totally got shafted in the final cut of the movie. And the alternate ending, despite the animation clearly not being finished, is leagues better than the one we got too.

Maybe some "Love at First Sight" or even "Soulmate AU" Headcanons for Mikey?? I love him so much, he's so underrated!! <3 <3 <3

YESSSSSSS we're gonna go with '07 Mikey since I got nothin' for him.

Boy oh boy you already know how this is gonna start off • He meets you at the birthday party for your younger siblings and damn near pops the mascot head off with his goo-goo eyes • Seriously, he almost rips the damn thing off and asks for your number right then and there. Instead he introduces himself to you and shakes your hand, putting on that Mikey charm and hoping it transfers well through the costume (it does!) • Is this what all those cheesy 2000's movies that Raph watches were all talking about? The palm sweating, chest aching, knees weak, arm spaghetti feeling that makes you feel like you're floating yet sinking at the same time? • He watches as you walk away to inform your siblings and their friends that the real party arrived and decides in that moment he's gonna make this the best damn birthday they'll ever have

• He focuses on entertaining your siblings and friends but also makes sure to include you every now and then • You had read reviews that Cowabunga Carl was great at what he does, but you didn't think he'd go this above and beyond • Every time he makes a kid laugh his eyes automatically zip to yours to see if you're laughing as well (spoiler alert: you are) • When he's swinging around the foam nunchucks, he may or may not put a little extra pizazz to impress you. He gives his spiel on how real nunchucks are dangerous weapons and shouldn't be played with like a toy. That's when one of the kids attempts to rip one out of his hands, to which Mikey gently bonks them on the head with the other. • Thankfully the kid laughs and so do you! You quickly rush over to guide him away and apologize for their behavior but Mikey brushes it off with a 'No problem, dude!'. He forgets he's wearing the helmet when he winks but that's also okay because your smile turns a little shy at his response • Soon his party slot time is coming to an end and he starts bidding the children goodbye. He's picking up his party gadgets when you come and offer him a slice of cake • Is this a marriage proposal? He thinks it might be! But he keeps it cool and takes the dessert, thanking you with another handshake. You tell him he's more than welcomed to eat here and rest for a bit • It's there that Mikey remembers that he's a mutant turtle wearing a costume... of a turtle • Oh... yeah • He politely declines and can instantly see the disappointment on your face BUT he does tell you quickly that he doesn't want to ruin the magic of Cowabunga Carl for the kids by taking the costume off • The instant relief and smile makes his heart flutter. You tell him you understand and that if he needs anything before he goes to just let you know • He asks for your name before you're even able to turn around • You tell him and ask for his • This is it, he's gonna take the risk • "Michelangelo! But you can call me, anytime...?" • He started off confident but then lost it towards the end because what exactly was he doing asking for a cutie's number while dressed as Cowabunga Carl... • "You know! In case uh, you and your folks wanna book me again...?" • Once again, damn nearly explodes right out of the costume when you laugh and offer your number • "By the way you can just call me Mikey." • "Oh good, I was torn between Michelangelo or Carl." • Once your numbers are exchanged he saves his contact with a very snazzy photo of him doing a thumbs up and adding a turtle, skateboard, and pizza emoji to his name • Yours is saved with orange hearts but he doesn't show you that • He says goodbye to you and everyone else and then tells you he'll text you after his shift is over • You say you're looking forward to it • Once he's in the van he takes the head off and can't stop smiling. • The cake is pretty damn delicious too • And once he's driving, he realizes he'll have to tell you sooner or later about his true self • He worries about that for another time • For now he calls Donnie to give him an update • "Don-- I think I'm in love."

Got an anon ask ‘who my least fav turtle is if Leo is my favourite’ and it made me realise I don’t draw my ACTUAL favourite turtle enough, so it might really look like that 😤

I wanted to doodles just the three recent ones but my brain went brrr, and my hand slipped and kept slipping until I got the whole orange fam (could probably still add a few more, maybe later). Anyway, MIKEY SUPREMACY ✨🧡🍊💪 (I love them all but he has a very special place in my heart).

( you can find it on Redbubble ⭐️ )

EDIT; Someone asked me who some of them are so;

anyways I love to defend the 2007 turtles. Love to think of it from each of their angles where they're the victim and everyone else is using them up but they let it happen because they're heroic victims, loyal and generous. I love to justify and wave away Leo's pride and anger issues, Raph's black and white belief in punitive justice, Donnie being checked out and careless, Mikey's apparent craving for violence literally just for the fun of it. Because they are just figuring life out and have put up with so much and there's so much real sacrifice and love and goodness going on

But just so we're clear: there is also a lot of narrow-mindedness and self-righteousness and misplaced anger going on, and I also love them for those reasons. Sometimes they kinda suck and I think that's beautiful

My Favorites of TMNT: MICHELANGELO

*Edited/Updated to now include Rise and MM*

So, I thought it might be fun to count down my favorite versions of our animated turtle boys! (I may do comic version later). It’s let me revisit some of the versions I don’t watch all that often and that’s always fun.

You all know I have to start with my favorite turtle, Michelangelo.

#1 1987 Michelangelo

This was my first intro to Michelangelo and he remains my favorite. I think he’s probably the nicest of all the Mikey’s and genuinely just wants people to be happy and have fun. I enjoy how he’s shown to be just as competent as his brothers in this series and they rely on him in turn. He has spiritual abilities—he can talk to animals and more than once he gets prophetic dreams. He takes his role of looking after his family’s morale seriously and truthfully, he’s damn good at it.

#2 1990 Mikey

The original movie series Mikey is such a doll. He’s fun loving and always making wise cracks or jokes but there’s also a sensitive side to him and he absolutely has other emotions than just “the fun one.” He’s not one to let out his own insecurity, hiding it under jokes, denial or even anger. (The fact we never got the extended scenes of his outbursts in the barn is a cinematic crime). But he’s also a talented fighter, has great chemistry with his brothers—especially Donnie—and I adore how while he still very much comes across as the baby of the family, he is not incompetent.

#3 2003 Mikey

Oh, I love you, darling and the writers did you so dirty! Honestly, I blame the writing for Mikey more than anything. Why Laird decided all comic relief must be from Mikey I will never understand. We saw hints of Mikey’s deeper side—his insecurity, his feeling like he doesn’t match up to his brothers, his interdependence on his family, his desire to truly help others, his love of animals. This Mikey puts up a mask and that mask hides so much more underneath it. It’s all here and they did next to nothing with it! It pretty much wrote itself! *sigh* Thank God for fans and fanfiction ….oh and when it comes to fighting, this Mikey is an absolute beast.

#4 Batman vs TMNT Mikey

This Mikey makes me laugh so much. He’s so full of energy and enthusiasm that it’s freaking contagious. He’s got a smile out of Batman—Batman!—and the way he just takes everything in stride is one reason I love him so much. They do tend to downplay his intelligence which is something, unfortunately, that happens to a lot of Mikeys but he’s not stupid. Naive, impulsive maybe but not stupid. And again, I love we see how he and Donnie interact!

#5 Rise Mikey

We finally got a version of Mikey that really delves into his empathy and his artistic tendencies. Yes, yes please! Dr, Feelings, Dr. Delicate Touch, these are such great expansions on that and really clever ways to explore it.

Oh and he actually is the youngest by a a few years and yes, that affects the dynamic and yes, I love it! His interactions with all his brothers is brilliant and I live for the affection these boys have for one another!

And can we talk about that mystic ability and how absolutely unhinged this Mikey could get? God, I love it! We were robbed of more of this awesomeness!

#6 2007 Mikey

The fact we didn’t see more of this Mikey is really a damn shame. The little we did see, I really enjoyed. His voice and design are great and it’s neat to see a Mikey who is a bit older. I enjoy that we see how much this Mikey really remains dependent on his brothers. His greeting to Leo when he comes back melts my heart and how he remains so dependent on Donnie and just…trusts him to find the answers. I really wish we’d seen this Mikey in the planned sequel where he has to save his family. Seeing him thrust into a situation where he doesn’t have that support he relies on would have been so cool to witness.

#7 Bayverse Mikey

I actually really like the Bayverse. It’s not perfect but I think there’s a lot of potential. Now, I definitely prefer Out of the Shadows characterization because they got rid of a lot of the “pervy” traits. This Mikey wants to belong and be accepted so damn badly. His “We’re not monsters” and his face just breaks my heart. He only wants to be able to be an actual teenager, to be heard and to be accepted and can you really blame him for that?

(The fact all his brothers utterly lose it on Krang for almost crushing him with “Nobody messes with Mikey!” will always be a movie highlight for me)

#8 2012 Mikey

Oh boy. So, while I definitely still like the Nick series, the writing utterly fails Mikey here. And it’s a shame because when they do write him well, it’s on fire! But they write him so terrible most of the time—he’s a punching bag, he’s presented as stupid most of the time, and they treat him as a perpetual child (“never really matured past six years old”) and that is such a disservice to his character. It feels like they saw him more as a ‘sidekick’ to the others rather than a hero in his own right. I still like him but there’s so much missed opportunities with this Mikey and it makes me sad.

#9 Mutant Mayhem Mikey

And we have someone new in last place. I do still like this Mikey though. But this makes only the second TMNT property (the other being 2012) where Mikey isn’t my favorite.

We don’t really get much to work with regarding MM Mikey. He has the least unique traits of his brothers. They gave him more vague or wide traits and the result is him feeling much less defined than his brothers.

And there’s his voice…I’m sorry, the voice just does not fit Mikey to me. It doesn’t sound like Mikey. I can’t feel it being Mikey. So I just can’t get behind it.
