Tmnt Leo 2012 - Blog Posts
I’ve been binging the show “Worst Cooks in America” and I keep imagining Leo doing this show. Along with other TMNT fans, I headcanon Leo as a bad cook and watching him fumble in Worst Cooks would be so funny to see. Leo would definitely be competitive and get annoyed when losing since he’s so used to doing really well in training. But, that doesn’t mean he would not still be the sweet and awkward bean that he is. Contrary to his iconic blue mask, he would be on Team Rockin Red Stars with Anne Burrell.
Discovering this video has made my week. 😂😂
Um. My mouse slipped?
Have Any of You Ever Had Crushes on TMNT Characters?
I am totally guilty for having crushes on TMNT characters-especially my blue-banded husbando.
I’ve had crushes on almost every iteration of Leonardo. The 2012 Leo is #1.
He’s just so sweet, brave, strong, and a great swordsman. His voice was heaven to my ears, especially when it changed in season 3. Leo also has the cutest smile. Still have a crush on him to this day.
I also had a crush on 2012 Donnie because of how cute and smart he is. Donatello was my second favorite in the series. Rob Paulsen did a really good job making him super likable. Donnie’s smile is almost as cute as Leo’s.
Which TMNT 2012 Turtle VA Do You Want to Meet the Most?
I would love to meet every voice actor in TMNT 2012, but if I had to pick the one I want to meet the most, Rob Paulsen would be my pick. I love all of Rob's voice roles like Carl from Jimmy Neutron, Peck from Back at the Barnyard, and especially Donnie. Plus, Rob is such a sweetheart and I just want to give him a big hug.
Greg Cipes is my second pick because I love Beast Boy, Mikey, and Kevin Levin.
Seth Green is my third because of Leo and Monty Monogram.
Sean Astin is last.

You can't tell me Leo didn't force someone to do this with him at least once

DAY 3: SPACE HEROES
I am going to explode I am so bad at catching up, I swear I will eventually.
I made a TMNT 2012 oc
Main Info: 🐇
- Her name is Usagi Mizuki, she’s a samurai rabbit mutant from Japan, who came to NY to work for the Shredder shortly after her Daimyo (samurai master), Usagi died. She doesn’t like working for Shredder but she doesn’t have many options, since;
a) her master owed the Shredder a debt and couldn’t pay it because he was 💀
b) she is a teenage orphan raised by an old daimyo in a modern world with little need for samurai
c) she’s a mutant
- She works for Shredder for no reason other than to repay her daimyo’s debt, as he was her teacher and only guardian. Eventually she joins forces with the turtles and goes against Shredder after learning of his alliance with the Kraang.
Backstory: 🐇
- She was a homeless orphan in Japan in the streets who was taken and kidnapped by the Kraang (much like how Alopex and Tigerclaw were) and used for experiments, being mutated into rabbit mutant. Eventually she was able to escape from Dimension X, landing back into Japan but now as a monster.
She wonders around the streets, stealing for food and living in abandoned homes and old temples. One night, however, she is found by an old Daimyo named Usagi sleeping in the bushes near an old temple that he was visiting. Seeing her as a sign of good luck and as she is a child, he takes her in as his own and trains her as a samurai. Giving her the name Usagi Mizuki, as he had found her due to the moon shining on her form in the night.
Inspiration: 🐇
- Obviously she is inspired by Usagi Yojimbo from the TMNT franchise, but since he is already in the 2012 universe but in an alternate dimension, I made her sort of like an alternate version of him but not really as she only has the name Usagi because of her Guardian and Daimyo.
- I also took inspiration from Princess Mononoke, Usagi Yojimbo, and Usagi Tsukino for her personality. As a teenage girl wanting to live by her morals and teachings of her Daimyo, and her forgiving and empathetic nature. She puts on a mask of nonchalance and confidence and even some playfulness when fighting in order to not get hurt or be used against her will. But once she gets close to someone she is actually sweet and expressive, not afraid of being herself.
Love Interest: 🐇
- I honestly made her because I wanted Leo to have a love interest that wasn’t his sister 🤢, and almost every Leo was already shipped with Usagi. BUT TMNT 2012 Usagi is a) an adult, and b) in an alternate dimension. And we’ve only ever seen Leo interested in women, unlike Rise Leo and ‘03 Leo.
- So I thought why not and give Leo a mutant rabbit samurai girlfriend. I was thinking enemies to lovers or something along those lines as I thought it would be cute if Leo had to face someone who equally matched or overpowered him in skill when it came to swordsmanship. Idk I thought it was cute ☺️
More Doodles: 🐇
a little detail i love in tmnt 2012 is this
the way the ends of their masks stand up when they’re suprised is sO CUTE RIWJHDNWJD
Милые черепашки | Cute turtles
Уговорили, красть вас, черепашек, не буду. Но разрешите вас любить и тискать! И в гости приходить. Это очень важно!
All right, I won't steal you turtles. But I'll let you love you and squeeze you! And come visit. It's very important!
Ну или я всё равно кого-то да украду. Но обещаю возвращать. Наверное буду возвращать. Как таких милых черепашек не красть? Это выше моих сил
Or I'll steal someone anyway. But I promise to return it. I guess I will. How do you not steal such cute turtles? It's beyond me
Ладно, я действительно, неожиданно для себя, поймал фиксацию на черепашках. И так же неожиданно нашёл в черепашках антистресс.
Okay, I did, unexpectedly, catch a fixation on turtles. And I also unexpectedly found an anti-stress in turtles.
Между неофициальным препаратом успокоительного и черепашками, я склонен выбирать черепашек. Жаль только, что на работе их не порисуешь, конечно.
Between an unofficial sedative drug and turtles, I tend to choose the turtles. Too bad you can't draw them at work, of course.
Это всё ожидание последнего экзамена в колледже. Мне нужно больше черепашек.
It's all the anticipation of the last college exam. I need more turtles.
He can never remember that it’s just a nightmare, until she softens it into a dream.

(This is a redraw btw)
Old drawing from 2013 (I was 11 back then!):
Side by side comparison:
Can't believe it's been 9 years already 🥺 It was about time for Leo to get a glow up LMAO
Pardon me I just love him so much 😭💙
Also, Raph is next 😏
So I decided to redraw one of my favorite scenes from #tmnt2012 cause the way they hold onto each other is too cute and I also love their expressions so I couldn't resist it 🥺💚
And here's a lighter version cause I liked this one a lot too ⬇️
To anyone who would like to know I LOVE TMNT 2012 and I'm a bit addicted to it right now so I plan on making more artwork of them soon 💚

Q: Leo, do you love sweet? If yes, what that? A: I love vagasi. These Japanese sweets are not so sweet. For us earlier them the master Splinter cooked, very delicious! But in New York their not and I’d rather eat the homemade cake that Mikey cooks just superb!
I’m so sorry, my english is very bad(
TOTTMNT! Leo, internally panicking: oh god these other Leo’s………they’re so cool and skilled and confident. I hope they like me. I need them to like me. Please don’t hate me. I need their approval. pLEASE LIKE ME—
