Super Shredder
 

Does anyone have any cool pics or good screen caps of super shredder? I want to make a custom figure and want to get some good reference points. Thanks!

Should also get the shot when he was choking Leo...

Funny.. as a kid I never once thought 'why did the armor also mutate?'.

thanks, those will help out a lot. I'm thinking about getting a kevin nash figure to customize for added authenticity :)

Couldn't it be possible that the mutagen in the Movie universe mutants clothes if the one beinging mutanted is wearing any? All of the other Mutants were in the nude when they mutanted, where as Shredder was not.

Also, you probably didn't notice it as a kid because of how the show used mutagen. I mean, there's an episode where it brings ice alive, for pete's sake :lol:

No Pete doesn't like Mutants, he has a strict no mutant rule :P

What makes you think that? There were mutant plants and lizards in Volume 4. And there's Leatherhead, of course. I think Peter just didn't like how mutant-crazy the OT and Archie series went, and I can't really blame him. There was a mutant under every other rock in those series.

The 4Kids series does have a strict no mutants rule.

Leatherhead is an exception only because he's a long-established character that was in Volume 1.

I don't mind the rule so much as far as new characters are concerned, but to not utilize some of the Archie characters because of this is really lame.

I was making a joke folks boy oh boy..anyway I don't mind the rule so much but we did have a few in 2k3 but I'd gladly take those Archie and old toon mutants who are original and have different personalities over the generic bare bones mutants of the new show any day.

Sure, but that doesn't mean Pete is completely against mutants. He probably just didn't want to see the new 'toon muddled with them like the old 'toon was.

And I can hardly agree that leaving out Archie characters is lame. I love characters from most of the TMNT universes, but there's nothing wrong with leaving Archie/OT and Mirage/NT separate from one another.

EDIT: Heh, it seems we've hijacked the thread. My bad... :)

Ha, it's ok, I'll let it slide this time. :) That's an interesting discussion though about the mutants. I really don't mind either way, I think it helps to keep things fresh. If you get tired of a universe overrun with mutants, then you can just watch the new toon or read a different comic series, or vice versa.

I made one a few years ago using this Kevin Nash figure:
http://www.amazon.com/WCW-NWO-Battle...373828&sr=8-31
I used parts from the Super Shredder figure including the head. If you don't include the helmet spike, he is the same size as the General Gato figure from the new TMNT movie. The ninja turtles and shredder from the old movie line come up to his waist. I think that old sculpt still holds up well and fits the proportions of the new movie figures better than the newer Kevin Nash figures. I haven't seen the new ones in person but whichever you decide to use as a base, hope to see pics of your progress.

Wonder if he survived after the bridge collapsed? guess we'll never know:ohwell:

psh yes we will...:lol:

Good ol Kevin Nash 8)

===HERO

I actually found that Kevin Nash figure loose on ebay for .99 NO ONE BETTER BID ON IT (just kidding). I went shopping last night to see if there were any in the stores and I couldn't fine 1 single kevin nash... Anyway, I got a Noob Saibot figure instead and I am going to make a regular shredder too. Might be a bit ambitious becasue I havent done customs before, but we'll see

As for the dock, if he can survive a trash compactor I would hope that he could survive a measly dock falling on him. The question is, will he still be super shredder when he comes back?

Do you happen to have any pics of that?

I think what Pete doesn't want are human-turned-mutants, which most of the OT mutants were.

I don't have any pics of the finished custom but I took this one when I was comparing sizes.

Thats awesome... the head actually looks right on it. Super Shredder was a pretty weak figure in my oppinion. Its cool seeing one that towers over the turtles

Ok well I started a figure, but it's just shredder. I'm still waiting on the auctions to end on the nash figures so I thought Id start a regular one and do super shredder next. Click here for the thread

Well just to clarify, it probably wasn't just the impact, the contamination of the ooze probably poisoned him, the slight concussion he may've got from the dock probably helped the poison take effect.

I always imagined his heart exploded. I mean the last thing he came in contact with was a blast of energy from the amp. Then he drank the entire vile of ooze. So I always figured the ooze mutated him based off that power and over developed all his muscles and organs. He could only live like that for a few minutes and I think he knew that. That's why he destroyed the dock, he knew he was going to die and wanted to take the turtles with him.

Course that's probably not what the writers intended and I'm probably adding more meaning to it then was intended.

Where in the world are you getting this poison stuff from?
Since when did Mutagen even Poison anyone?

Probably wouldn't in its natural form, except that the professor mentioned having contaminated it, which made Tokka and Rahzar intellectually inferior; for a human, may have been potentially fatal, it's only a thought.

Which would explain why it not accelerate Shredder's intelect the way it did to Splinter and the turtles. He definately didn't get any smarter, basically killing himself in order to destroy the turtles. If he had been smart he would have thought of a way to kill the turtles without killing himself too

Tokka & Rahzar are dumb because they're babies, not because of the mutagen, splinter was a smart rat from the start before he mutated it shows that and it's even said in the mirage comics and he raised the turtles so they followed in his foot steps.
He didn't seem very smart to start with and we only see Super Shredder on screen for what 3 or 4 minutes if that?
I'd hardly say that's enough time to establush if a character has some smarts or not.

Professor Perry actually did say he contaminated the ooze to make tokka and rahzar intellectually inferior. That ooze was definately altered.
Based on the fact that he killed himself, i'd say he wasn't any smarter. He should have thought of something else

OVERCLOCKED SHREDDER! :lol:

Well.... He was pretty pissed of that moment, so his intellectuall capasity was most likely pretty challanged then!

Im pretty sure Super Shredder wasent really trying to kill himself, Im more so thinking he thought he could take a bigger hit like that then them. Plus on second thought it was an all to easy way for the writters to end the fight scene between him and the turtles, really what a waist.


But what the hell do I know? I havent taken mutagen and gained super powers....

well let's get on that

That's one truly awesome Super Shredder...just compare it to that little hunk of junk to the left of it...:lol:


Works for me!:lol:

I thought he said he did it to speed up physical mutation at shredders request IE: to make them adult physically that fast.

could be, but I thought he said something like "When I contanimated the ooze... making them... and far less dangerous..."

I can't remember the line exactly. I could be wrong, wouldn't be the first time

Yeah I don't ever recall him saying anything besides the Ooz was unstable or it could be contaminated.

someone go watch the movie and report back!

got it, and I quote

Leo: Are you sure this is going to work?

Perry: When I contaminated the ooze used to transform Tokka and Rahzar making them intellectually inferior and thus less dangerous, I had no idea I would be trying to make an anti-mutagen based on that contamination.

You sir indeed are correct, and thus you've gained back you cool points ;)
