I was always disappointed in the original line, because I read the comics. But a couple of designs grew on me, so those are the ones I'll cherry-pick. The latest reveal has nothing for me. God, I hope they do Usagi though.
Toon Shredder was a 1993 Playmates release.

Bebop was modeled after an actual wild boar, hence the buck-teeth. There is also the stereotype that people with buck-teeth are stupid. Bebop was the stupid punk archetype, while Rocksteady was always the militant one.
