Do you think it was a good idea turning Dogpound into Rahzar?

[Fishface]

Personally I hated it! Seriously, Dogpound and Fishface were my favorite pair and felt like a B and R (until the real ones turned up)! Their rivalry was even more interesting but later they were soon forgotten about as soon as Tiger Claw came and Baxter Stockman turned into a fly! I reckon this was the reason they appear less and they use Tiger Claw and Baxter Stockman more now! But to be fair, Tiger Claw is Shredder's 2nd in Command and Baxter has been really useful with Karai and is the only mutant of the foot not to fail him recentl because Rahzar, Fishface, Rocksteady and Bebop have failed Shredder a lot lately! But back to the title! I really think it was a dumb decision making Dogpound turn into Rahzar and after looking further into it, I found out that Playmates was the reason for this and complained that Dogpound wasn't selling even though it took me 4 months to find him in stores! And if they mutated Dogpound, why not Fishface? The only difference, other than his design is that he is slightly faster, that's all! He is not more powerful than Dogpound was! Anyways what are thought on this! If you agree, say why, if you disagree I also want to know why!

Never liked Dogpund's design. It was to over cumbersome and awkward looking. Rahzar looks much better on a design level.

But personally, I'd prefer Bradford and Xever to be human, that was the better designs of them and had way more personality then their mutant forms.

This. Though Fishface is the weakest link and least interesting. I would rather see how evil Chuck Norris mst Shredder and uses hus ewsources to benefit the Foot.

[Candy Kappa]

We don't really get a good look at the business side of the Foot, except the few times Shredder negotiated with Rocksteady when he was a human and the Mafia guy. There should be some human representing Shredder instead of having Shredder do all that stuff.

The idea was ok because Dogpound was too clumsy. Rhazar ,on the other hand, was faster but wasn't used much. That's the problem, he should have been given more screen time, and some more character development as Rhazar.

Fully rounded character --> Action Figure with some character --> Action Figure

[Zak The Neutrino]

I'm with you on this one. I really liked Dogpound so was disappointed when they mutated him again.

I agree, I reckon they should have made either both of them mutate or someone else into Rahzar!

[CyberCubed]

It was a great idea. Dogpound's design started to get really boring around the start of Season 2, I can't imagine if it was still around now.

Making him into Rahzar made sense since a dog becoming a wolf fits in the same animal group.

[neatoman]

Turning Dogpund into Rahzar was pointless, the change is mostly superficial and I don't think Rahzar is so popular he just had to be in the show.

[Jephael]

Back in the original cartoon they used to do stories were a mutation would be unstable and the subject would be changing between forms. Would've been a cool concept to utilize here, having Bradford constantly switching between his Dogpound and Rahzar form. Guess that would've made him sort of a mutant werewolf.

[Powder]

Good? I dunno, I like it. I do miss Dogpound, I grew quite fond of the design & slightly different personality, but Rahzar looks super dope too & it's a nice callback to SOTO.

Rahzar is in one of the most watched/viewed TMNT films of all time. He's popular for that reason alone.

By that logic though, Spike really should've become Tokka instead of Slash.

[Eiko]

I prefer Dogpond over Rahzar. I didn't really see the point of turning him, Dogpond was as new Character why turn something new and cool into something that has been done before.

I agree with you on that. Rahzar was just Rahzar In Name Only. A cool design, but eh.

[CyberCubed]

He's not Rahzar in name only he's Rahzar. Its not like it matters if he was a wolf or human prior to mutation.

[Ninturtle]

I like Bradfords design a lot more now, I only wish we saw more of him and Fish Face.

[Electric]

I was never a fan of dog pound so I loved it. And the fact that no one saw it coming made it one of my favorite moments of the series.

Still not a fan of xever, and kind of still hoping he double mutates

[Lethal Lullaby]

I'll miss Dogpound's design(kinda), sure, but the Rahzar look is, as Powder said, "Super dope."

Anyways I try to avoid complaining too much about the decisions made with the show, since I know nothing I say will make much of a difference. (j'O,u,O)j'

I liked his change at first (and I still do) but he's not really been used the way he should have been. When he was 'Dogpound,' he was pretty much a guy that I could feel for, he seemed more 'human' since this guy acted (and felt like) a man trapped in a monstrous and freakish body. Then he was mutated, and out of that I'd hoped it would allow a further evolution of these traits, especially as his body was now twisted further into something more horrific. He did get that in a way, but only sorta, mostly at first and then only infrequently thereafter. Mainly since then he's slowly devolving into a one-note villain who is purely henchmen and there for the the occasional comedic moment, almost negating his earlier development. If he's had stayed as Dogpound, I doubt he would have kept any improvement, but would have devolved just as he is doing now, but only more heavily into more insipid 'doggy' tropes for comedy ever since the new writers had taken over. I won't lie, I love him when he's dead serious or in a serious episode(Acne, Lonely Mutation, Vision Quest, etc) but even his mutation into Rahzar isn't saving him from a slow descent into mediocrity. :(

[Casey]

I love the design of Rahzar, but I thought the whole "double mutation" thing was and is a little ridiculous. I guess it's kind of fun though.

[Amaranthus]

Every villain in this show eventually devolves into mediocrity. It's annoying. They keep introducing new villains without giving them enough screentime each.
I wish this show was more like Transformers Prime at times. Good god, that show really knew how to use its villains.
