And that's fine, any character is valid regardless of the inspiration or whatever. It's true that most of the Nick incarnations are that way, you're right. Rahzar, Tokka, Alopex (at least she's some type of fox), Mona Lisa, Wyrm... Lots of weird choices. It's like they make up a new character and then throw the old fans a bone by re-using names.

Just wait a little less than one month and the show only has three episodes left to release, which are most likely going to get dumped on DVD soon after as well, the show is probably going to be over this year for all practical purposes.

Anyway, what about Gamera-Tokka? How do you feel about that?

I haven't watched the show since around season 2 but I've seen snippets since then, Nick Tokka seems cool, I like the design, but it has nothing to do with the original Tokka, haha. Which again is fine, it's a new character, and I'm sure the show's target audience has no idea about the old 1991 movie Tokka.

Anyway, my point was that there's definitely room in IDW TMNT for a spin on the original Tokka and Rahzar. I don't want to derail this thread any more than I have!
