Wow.. this was a kicking ep! 

Yep... you know I'm gonna say it. So I will.  Is this duel between
Baxter and the others what it would look like if they went up against a
TF? I kept on thinking Baxter = Starscream. Baxter definatley had that
same cocky, egotistical attitude, when on telling everyone his
thought-out plans like an evil overlord and certianly played the bit of
bad comedy stepping into between the Turtles and the Shredder like
that. Loved the things the Turtles said about him though. *lol* I guess
Don also figured he can use his own thoughts to make the part of
Baxter's cannon to fire. Couldn't quite figure how else he made it
fire. 

The fight action was just awesome. I loved this ep too! The fight
expressions on the Turtles faces were to die for, and the animation was
great too. The script writers also did well in managing all the
characters so everyone had a role without making it sound too
confusing. Also felt a bit like Star Wars with Raph on the Blade
speeders. And... a MOTU moment when Leo was holding the sword of Tengu
up and the sparks flowing down around him.  

Lastly... all this with Shredder, his armor, and the sword of Tengu is
impressive. What he said about also being the one to rule in ancient
Japan sez alot. Sounds like a Highlander Immortal type, but he can't be
like that since decapitating the head is how you kill a Highlander.
Other immortal have to be stabed in the heart, like vampires. I...
don't think he's either of those... 

I think maybe there is something about that suit, that after Shredder
held the sword, it empowered him in a way to make him bond with both.
He was already 'immortal'. I'm going to go with the fact that this
Shredder is a perfected clone type. An Utrom gone sour. Cutting off his
head does not stop him, cause his brains important organs are
elsewhere. And when his present body fails him, he just transfers his
vitals to another. Yah...

the first few espisodes of season 2 .

Ohh.. yes, yes. That makes good sense, cuase there was a part in the
Mirage comics where something like that happens. Then we can learn more
about who the Utroms are, and perhaps the show will have a trip to
space to meet Fugitoid and the Triceratons!
