You are probably the first person in my entire life I’ve heard say Raph is the best. 

Really? Most people I know say Raph is the best.

I showed a few episodes to my nephew a few months ago who had never seen TMNT and afterwards I asked him who he liked the most. He said Splinter but I asked him which turtle and he said Raph. I allowed him to remain in the family haha.

Side question, when are you doing a so you want to collect GBA? Can’t wait for that one. I don’t collect US stuff but it’s always interesting to hear what’s going on the US side of things vs Japanese for a set.

The GC one was great. It was interesting to hear that the expensive GC games for the US are some of the cheapest and easiest to find for the Japanese set.

Raph is like the all around shittiest, worst attitude, worst weapons, etc.

Leo is the leader, Don is the smart/mature one, Mike is the carefree one, and Raph is the short tempered, sarcastic one with a shitty attitude and wimpy little short range daggers.

Also I dunno on GBA but we know so many people that are wildly deep into GBA variants and set collecting that it has to happen eventually. I don’t even know how we begin to tackle it.

I'm tied between Leo and Raph and I thought they were 2 of the most popular as well. It's also not just based on turtle personality but color.  Purple and Orange are not usual favorite colors for a lot of boys.

Yeah that’s why I like him. He’s always got the attitude and being sarcastic. Maybe I can relate to the sarcastic trait because I like to do the same haha.

Ralph’s weapons aren’t too bad, not quite as cool as nunchucks but better than a wooden pole and run of the mill swords haha.

Yeah GBA is a tough hill to climb, especially in the US. The Japanese library is way more manageable (a little under 800). Don’t know where you would start but some interesting points to discuss would be:

- ports/remakes

- exclusives/games started on the GBA

- the shovelware (seems to be heaps in the US library) 

- Japanese exclusives

- how insane us CIB collectors are 😆

excuse me...but he's not short tempered, sarcastic, shitty attitude, or wimpy....

He's the cool but rude guy, and HE IS THE BEST.

Leo is a prude, Donny is a square, mikey is like my a2 choice, raph holds a slight edge. And I always thought raphs sai was the coolest weapon actually.

Mikey was pretty popular around my neighborhood/school.

I like his attitude also. And his humor. “You gotta know what a crumpet is…”

And he took on like 40 foot shoulders by himself! It took like 100 to capture just him alone!

I didn't grow up with Ninja Turtles, but I think Raph is cool. He's like Gary Oak if he was on your side. ; )

See. Raph is the best turtle!

I love that the Raph lovers have now taken over the Collector's Quest podcast topic, such a Raph thing to do 😁 @CodysGameRoom will surely come in here soon.

TMNT Entity: Raphael (microseries) #1

 

Raph is the best. True TMNT fans know. From a video game POV I'd understand why you might not think he's the best. But in the OG comics, the first movie, etc, he rules. Yes he has character flaws like his anger and attitude issues. But yet when it is time to, he always delivers. Plus, Raph busts the most schools of criminal scum with the vigilante Casey Jones. 

I love the turtles as an ensemble, and they compliment each other well. Leo is a great leader, Donnie is awesome in general, and Mikey is a goof but can fucking go in battle (he won some pretty big battles throughout the various iterations of tmnt), but Raph is still the best.
