Notable TMNT characters who have yet to get a Nick debut

[CyberCubed]

Let's make a list of notable TMNT characters yet to have their debut in the Nick cartoon. Some of these have already been confirmed via upcoming toys or info, but I'm going to list them already until their episodes air:

- Triceratons (confirmed to be coming eventually)
- Tokka
- Neutrinos
- Fugitoid (confirmed via toy)
- Renet (confirmed via toy)
- Savanti Romero (confirmed via a toy)
- Wingnut and Screwloose
- Man Ray
- Agent Bishop
- Armaggon (Ciro hinted?)


As far as know they're not going to use IDW characters so no Old Hob or Alopex. A lot of other Archie staples (Ninjara, Null, Malinga) are also probably not going to show up. I suspect the same for a lot of the obscure human/alien characters from Mirage and Image.

- Tokka


Don't be silly, Cubed. Hun already appeared.

1. That's Bruce Lee.

Add Mona Lisa, Ninjara or Alopex on that list.

Isn't April technically a neutrino.

I mean we don't know much about the Neutrino's as a race other then the fact they are a humanoid race from Dimension X. They don't like war.

And that they have psychic powers as children which fade away as they grew older.


Neutrino's have not been officially introduced on the 2012 scene. But if they were, I can imagine that the Neutrinos could be humans who have been created through the Kraangs experiments.

There has to be more then just April after all why would the Kraang conveniently happen to come across the one family that had the DNA strand they needed.
April also has psychic powers which she can't explain, she just knows she'd had them since she was a small child.

And when Donnie tells her that she's a half human/half alien mutant it's more like he didn't really have any other way to describe what she was at that point in time.

[drgon78]

Well that whole April is a Neutrino idea is something I wish they would use.

I would be happy to see any of those characters except Man Ray.

[Powder]

Why do you only ever talk about yiffbait?

[CyberCubed]

I would be happy to see any of those characters except Man Ray.

I'm convinced the Nick writers can make Man Ray into an awesome character. Think of the underwater battles and his gliding ability.

Would be cool to see Merdude as well since he's basically the "Aquaman" of the TMNT universe. Especially if they do their Lost City of Atlantis story.

[Powder]

Merdude would definitely be a welcomed inclusion. I always felt he was underused & had great potential. Granted he had an OT appearance & Archie mini-series, he was always off the radar, nobody seemed to pay him much mind.

[Autbot_Benz]

I might be in the minority but id like to see high school aged Vernon Fenwick and Bern Thompson.

I get the feeling he was going to join the Mutanimals had Murphy not decided to kill them off. The Man Ray/Merdude mini seemed like an easy way to introduce Merdude to them and he probably would have eventually joined.

Its also like how I feel that Slash was going to become a Mutanimal too, no surprise he was killed off with them.

[Powder]

He, Slash, & Ninjara will always be Mutanimals to me. :trazz: Kinda like how Cappadonna isn't a Wutang Clan member but might as well be. :tlol:

[TigerClaw]

Why do you only ever talk about yiffbait?
Even though Karai is mutant, It be nice to see an actual proper female mutant on the show, So any of those characters I listed would be a good edition.

[Powder]

Fair enough, I guess. We need more female mutants in the vein of Karai's serpent form, in that they're not overly feminized, design-wise. I'm here bringing up yiff bait, but when you think about it, they're really all there is. It's not like there are female mutants who don't have heavy lashes & large busts, for the most part. Frustrating.

[ToTheNines]

He, Slash, & Ninjara will always be Mutanimals to me. :trazz: Kinda like how Cappadonna isn't a Wutang Clan member but might as well be. :tlol:

Lol, Slash and Ninjara are Cappadonna and Killah Priest.

I guess that makes Jagwar RZA, Ray Fillet GZA, Wingnut Ol Dirty, and you should totally draw this somehow :tlol:

[Orochi]

Neutrinos do exist in this canon. They're mentioned in the video game Danger of the Ooze that's meant to take place between season 2 and 3. So I'm sure we'll see them at some point. Honestly, I hope Hun stays unmutated as his Bruce Lee form is awesome. I personally think having Tokka be a mutated Raphael could work, with this mind serum Shredder created, I'd like to see Raph get a secondary (temporary) mutation to turn him into Tokka for an episode or two.

[Ashwolf]

angel should be brought in, also would be cool if the tribunal existed in this versionI personally think having Tokka be a mutated Raphael could work, with this mind serum Shredder created, I'd like to see Raph get a secondary (temporary) mutation to turn him into Tokka for an episode or two.

that would be kinda sweet but then again, im hoping 4 that 2 happen 2 1 of them at some point

[Shark_Blade]

Where's USAGI????

We could use some female mutants that are feminized since we don't have any.

I hope Hun stays human as well, though I wouldn't mind if they mutated Shredder before the finished him once and for all.

So the Neutrinos were mentioned in the game, but what did they say about them?

Far as I'm aware, Leatherhead mentions something about them being trapped by the Kraang. You don't see them at all, this it's mostly just a nod to the fanbase.

I admire your dedication to every possible TMNT incarnation, but... :teek:

[LivingMutagen]

Keno from TMNT 2. Best pizza delivery guy from TMNT, joined with Woody from IDW.

Really though, we need to see some Triceratons, the Neutrinos and Bishop.
EDIT: Chameleon, who appeared in the Archie comics for a few issues, would be interesting to see as well.

[CyberCubed]

I wonder if Groundchuck and Dirtbag will ever be used again.

I didn't list Eric Sachs or any Image characters.

If I ever meet one single TMNT fan who likes the character of "Eric Sachs", my head might quite literally explode. :tlol:

Pbfffffff Hahahahaha. Im sorry i couldnt say that with a straight face. I was just playing. That character was dumb and unnecessary. They literally couldve used Baxter and it wouldve been a cm better.

Garbageman:P

[CyberCubed]

I'm honestly surprised that Muckman is coming back, especially since he was only ever in 1 episode of the original toon and I never thought he was a popular or well known character. At least Mutagen Man had his toy which people loved, I don't remember the muckman toy being that popular.

[Orochi]

I'd love to see Panda Khan finally appear, due to how he wasn't in the original toon due to creative differences. Given that he's probably not been a major player in comics for years, it's probably easier than ever to negotiate.

Which inspires me to suggest The Tick. Done right that could work really well.

That could really work. We could start seeing old school indie comic characters have cameos like we had in Fred Wolf. I know that Stan Sakai had a falling out with Eastman and Laird, but if he changes his mind. I'd love seeing Usagi turn up. Wasn't originally The Flaming Carrot meant to have an episode? Or was that some rumour. I'd dig Savage Dragon turning up too, albeit a more sanitised version with less cursing and violence.

[Powder]

I know that Stan Sakai had a falling out with Eastman and Laird,

Where the hell are you getting this from? It couldn't be more false. He & Pete are still good friends. That's why he hasn't let Usagi return. TMNT without Pete doesn't feel right to him, it would seem. He incorporated his character because it was a matter of two chums blending their efforts, whereas now he'd be lending his baby to a big corporate entity, which he's not secure with. Granted I think Ciro & the guys would probably do the character justice, I can understand his position.

Thanks for clarifying, I hadn't a clue they were friendly, I heard it from various people online and read it in a thread or two here. It's good to hear Stan is friends with Pete still, I'm really hoping Stan does change his mind and allow it, but given that comic is probably his most well known work, he has every right to keep it out of Nick's hands if he so pleases.

The original article died and there doesn't seem to be an archive, but you can see the text quoted verbatim here:

Although this is a complete reboot of the franchise, there will be plenty of throw-backs to supporting cast such as Leatherhead & The Rat King (confirmed) and even classic crossovers such as The Flaming Carrot (for those of us hardcore fans who grew up on the TMNT).

Sadly this far out into the series with no word, it might've gotten shelved like every other big FC thing that I've heard about in the last decade.

[miru]

I'm pretty sure they're done with indie characters. Would have been nice to get Freedom Planet, though.

The what now?

A homage of the Sonic series. I'm not sure if it has any association with Turtles though.

[Powder]

Would like to see some of the old live action movie characters revived, be it here or in the IDW comics, but I'm guessing they're owned by Lionsgate or Golden Harvest or whoever.

Probably a similar issue to He-Man. Mattel can't make toys of the live action characters unless they got a figure in the vintage line. Same with here and Turtles, I doubt we'll see Keno, Mitsu or Tatsu turn up in the show because of the licensing issue. Seems like Bradford was originally a replacement for Tatsu, what with him training the Foot, generally being Shredder's man on the street and such.

[Kingoji]

Bad taste, dude. Isn't Sim still in hospital?

Oh crap, I forgot about that. Sorry. Any updates on that?

He's fine. He had an impacted colon & has been recovering well.

[sdp]

I'd like to see TNM characters. THe character I've always wanted to see animated was Armaggon but as much as I want him to appear so he won't fade to further obscurity..I just don't trust what this show would do to him..

[IndigoErth]

high school aged Vernon Fenwick
I really want to know how excruciatingly annoying he'd be as a teenager (seriously, can you imagine?), though I'm sure I'd quickly regret it. :lol:

Don't worry, he'll be a disguise for the Fugitoid, a disguise he'll never use again after his identity is revealed... Ever!

I dunno. Mirage had Charles Pennington, and Ross May was gonna have a story featuring Keno, so they might not be. Plus we already got Rahzar right?

[Powder]

Where did Mirage feature Charles?

As for Tokka & Rahzar, they are the creations of Kevin Eastman. I remember reading that characters created by... whoever, GH or LG, remained their property. At least before the buyout, anyway.

[Autbot_Benz]

they should bring in Chief Sterns that would be funny

Lauren's boss in Exposé.

The problem with Tatsu is he was just a second in command henchmen and his role has been replaced with a whole bunch of other characters:

Karai
Hun
Chris Bradford
Mutant henchmen
etc.

Tatsu really only existed to give Shredder some kind of second in command in the movie, and since Movie 1 came out in 1990 it pre-dated Karai's debut in the comics in 1992. Its quite likely the movie would have used Karai instead of Tatsu had the character existed at the time.

Tatsu kinda got reused by IDW; the original spirit that was reincarnated into Oroku Saki. Tatso somebody? Too lazy to go check the comics right now... somebody with more initiative can do it for me. :tlol:
