    It's not Gyatso, he doesn't have any facial hair. And it's not Aang, the head is wrong and he would me much shorter compared to the other benders in the intro. I think there just randomly drawn people. I know not interesting, but it's the only thing that makes sense at this point.

    I'm pretty sure that it's Aang. The firebender is the young Zuko that we see in episode 12 of season 1, and the waterbender is Master Paku. The earthbender is the only one that hasn't appeared in the series, I think.

    Nope. It's The Boulder from The Blind Bandit episode.

    That guy might be the Boulder. It's hard to tell... But from what I remeber, I don't think that the guy in the intro is as muscular as the Boulder. I could just be remembering it wrong, though.

    The firebender is Azula... pause it on the firebender and look at the hair and the figure
    It is definitely older Azula
    I don't think that Zuko would be that good when he was only 14 either

    You seriously need glasses. The firebender is Azula. I say that the Airbender is the unibrowed Southern Air Temple Monk Elder or Afiko the Betrayer. The earthbender was supposed to be the original Toph but was changed to the present Toph since the creators thought there weren't enough females. By the time they made Toph a little girl, they didn't have enough time to change the intro.

    No...really. Check the commentary. Two network producers can't be wrong.

    I saw that picture. It looks really blurry and can't really confirm that he had a moustache.

    I wish I could locate the pic. It looked pretty convincing, but yeah, it could just have been the lighting.

    ENOUGH of this question. For the FINAL TIME:

    Waterbender is PAKKU as confirmed in commentary.

    Earthbender is the MALE TOPH as confirmed by Pooldude from inside sources.

    Firebender is AZULA as confirmed in commentary.

    Airbender is NOT AANG. HE HAS FACIAL HAIR, PEOPLE. It does not appear to be Monk Gyatso, as he has a different outfit, but it is most definetely not Aang. Gyatso is a possibility.

    That saved me a lot of typing...

    Being a veterean user here, I've been in this debate at least a dozen times. I was informed infornt of everyone in a heated debate by the Avatar guide at tv.com editor with inside sources (aka Pooldude) that Pete is 100% right, though at the time I wasn't.
