| Our Friend Power 5 | comment |
Our Friend Power 5 is a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Challenge of the GoBots Mockbuster movie made in South Korea in 1989. The film uses elements of both live-action and animation, and was made alongside merchandise, like toys and a board-game, all produced by Popeye Toys.A group of turtle aliens from the planet BattleStar, along with their princess, are being chased down by the evil Shark Gang. After their ship is destroyed, they wind up on Earth, where the Shark Gang comes to find them. They get discovered by some human characters, and Hilarity Ensues, as the turtles and their new-found friends struggle to adapt to living on Earth, and prepare to defeat the Shark Gang once and for all...No official English translation exists, but one was made by Phelan Porteous and a friend for the sake of review. | |

Aliens Speaking English | |
| Our Friend Power 5 / int_1049848f | comment |
Aliens Speaking English: Or in this case, they speak perfect Korean. It's justified; Hyuk asks the turtles how they speak like he does, and they claim that being able to adapt and communicate regardless of where they are is their special power. It's not clear how the Shark Gang do it though. | |

Magic Wand | |
| Our Friend Power 5 / int_17059108 | comment |
Magic Wand: Yesular's father gives her a wand to help her deal with The Shark Gang. She uses it for teleportation, whipping up disguises, and powering the giant robot. | |

Explosions in Space | |
| Our Friend Power 5 / int_201b05be | comment |
Explosions in Space: There are a few times when giant, fiery explosions happen in the middle of space, due to the characters being aliens engaged in combat. | |

Non-Indicative Name: The "Battle Soldiers" aliens are apparently very peace-loving, and struggled to fight back against The Shark Gang when first provoked. The "Shark Gang" are a race of evil rat-like aliens. | |

Human Disguise | |
| Our Friend Power 5 / int_2dfdd387 | comment |
Human Disguise: When the turtles want to fit in on Earth, they try to disguise themselves as humans. Unfortunately, the only human they saw up to that point was Dalgeun dressed like a jiangshi... It works much better later on, when they meet normal humans, allowing Yesular to blend in as an ordinary Korean woman. The two main Shark Gang members turn themselves into human men, only with both of them having noticable facial hair, similar to Shark himself. | |

Guys Smash, Girls Shoot | |
| Our Friend Power 5 / int_3c700857 | comment |
Guys Smash, Girls Shoot: While the male turtles are all taught Taekwondo, Yesular instead relies on her magic wand, and is generally less involved in combat scenes. | |

| Our Friend Power 5 / int_403b6f3 | comment |
Fainting: Hyuk and Mina's mother faints when she opens a door and find the turtle aliens, who she'd previously only seen looking like regular Earth turtles, sitting in a room. Moments later, their dad faints, and lands on top of her. | |

Kick Chick: Mina is a Taekwondo fighter, meaning that she's mastered some powerful kicks and uses them constantly- whether it's to beat up Dalgeun or kick an alien in the face, she's always using her legs. | |

Chinese Vampire | |
| Our Friend Power 5 / int_764e0f86 | comment |
Chinese Vampire: Dalgeun at one point dresses up as a jiangshi, complete with painting his face a pale purple and wearing a long, colorful robe, all in an effort to scare Mina. When he moves, he even hops around with his arms outstretched. Then, when the turtles see him hopping around, they also transform into jiangshi, thinking that's just how humans are supposed to look... | |

Kill All Humans: Shark decides the best way to take out the turtles is to "Kill every Earthling", for no other reason than that they, well...exist, and a few of them helped out the turtles. The attack they launch spurs the heroes into action against them. | |

| Our Friend Power 5 / int_8c23b321 | comment |
Harmless Villain: The two main Shark Gang characters do little more than bumble around on Earth and fail to kill the turtles. Even when the turtles and Yesular are defenseless and asleep, they just steal Yesular's wand and leave, allowing the heroes to strike back and defeat them. | |

Medium Blending: Though most of the film is live-action, action sequences such as space-battles are done in 2D Animation. At some points, the live-action mixes with the animation, or the characters are added into the scene via rotoscoping. | |

| Our Friend Power 5 / int_b151c937 | comment |
The Mockbuster: Uses aliens dressed as Ninja Turtles, fighting inside of a Gobot, as the protagonists. The toys, similarly, are Ninja Turtles-figures remolded and down-scaled packaged with a Gobots bootleg figure. Hilariously, the characters based on Master Splinter are the villains. | |
