New mutants serving Shredder in future shows
If TMNT were to continue in the future, Shredder might have Bebop & Rocksteady join him.
But since Tiger Claw, Xever/Fishface, Bradford/Dogpound/Rahzar, how do you picture new mutants joining Shredder? Like what animals do you all see used to serve him? I can picture a chameleon, skunk & spider joining him. But as a "mutant ninja elite guard". As a means to rival the turtles. |

I don't know if we'll continuously see new mutants join Shredder. New shows could continue to use Bebop/Rocksteady or Tiger Claw, Fishface and Rahzar again.
In IDW Shredder briefly had Alopex, Koya and Bludgeon under his command, but that was only for a short time. |

How about not having mutant henchmen? Did you consider that?
Peter Laird said overuse of mutants kind devalues the theme of loneliness with the turtles, which is a fair point even though there might be some disagreements about how many are "too" many. Regardless of which, adding even more doesn't help. And then there's the elephant in the room, it's usually just a flimsy excuse to market action figures. Bebop, Rocksteady, Mondo Gecko, Fishface, Tiger Claw, Muckman, Slash, Snakeweed, the list goes on. They're not really characters, characters serve a narrative purpose that move the plot and contributes to the growth of other characters, they just show up and fill the role a bunch of no-names could or disappear as quickly as they came, because they're glorified toys. Bottom line, don't create new mutants or even use old mutants unless you have an actual reason to do so.

However, the mutants could've been more spread around Earth and hide at different places, like when the Archieverse had the Mutanimals in Brazil. |

The Foot Clan should have a grand total of zero mutants on the team.
But if they absolutely have to, I'd want Tokka & Rahzar. Big, brutal, & feral. Monsters, not goofballs or badasses.

We had the 2k3 series with virtually no mutants. Shredder's henchmen were Karai, Baxter, Hun and various Foot and Elite Ninja.

What I'd picture the Foot having?
Shredder Karai Hun (not the Bruce Lee version) But also four elite ninja mutants plus Bebop & Rocksteady, but from the Purple Dragons. |

Also, while I don't mind seeing Mutants when they fit the story, I don't think every version of TMNT needs to bring back every mutant from past versions. And, I don't think Shredder always needs hench-mutants either. |
