Would you want to see Man-Ray in the show?
 

IDW introduced Man Ray in their mutanimals group, and Mikey imagined the Archie version in his head in one episode.

Or the original cartoon version, "Ray."

um we already did n00b

No objection so long as he's got a better design than in IDW.

I would love to see an Archie version of Man Ray appear in the Nick cartoon. It would be great to eventually see him alongside Leatherhead, Slash, etc. in this version of The Mighty Mutanimals.

Yeah, the IDW design isn't to my liking at all. I prefer the Archie/Toyline Ray Fillet

I wouldn't be surprise if he shows up on the show, but keep in mind, he may not be like the one in the comics, this series takes liberties on characters, most often its characters who are in name only, and its Mikey who is always naming the mutants.

Is the IDW Ray really that bad design wise? I don't see a problem with it.

Not a fan of the clothes and goggles. I like Ray with cartoonish proportions

Come to think of it its surprising Man Ray has never shown up. They seem to be going through the Playmates toy list and bringing back all notable and even obscure mutants (like Mutagen Man, Muckman, Wyrm, etc), but Man Ray has never been chosen.

Being an aquatic mutant he could also get into underwater battles with Fishface.

Yeah, that & the location of his "horn-shaped cephalic fins" (as Wikipedia puts it) is really "off" to me. They should be on top of his head! They're as iconic to him as Batman's "ears" are, IMO. A defining visual trait.

There's no reason to post something like that.

Yeah there is. It's what a ray looks like.

I didn't post it for the blood.

When someone asks whey a design is bad, it helps to go to the source.

There are hundreds of thousands of other pictures out there of them, ones that better depict their overall image, too.

You don't throw up a shot of his autopsy when someone needs a refresher on Robin Williams' appearance.

What's up your ass today?

It's hardly an autopsy. not like the time Andrew posted a ****ing video of an actual suicide.

There's a little blood. Not many clear shots in my 30 second google ****ing search.

Today? Today? Hi, I'm Powder, nice to meet you.

Suicide is a choice. Getting killed by the carelessness of seaman, on the other hand...

Either way, it's not a pleasant sight fit for this site.

well ****ing chill, you know me by now.

I didn't kill them ffs! lol.

Here, here's a cat walking on two legs.

My olive branch.

- If you're going to do something with Man-ray, (wasn't it once Ray-fillet?) you need to do more than just give him some weird jowls hanging off his head.

We don't need more characters in this show, it already has trouble focusing on the ones it already have because of all the monsters of the week episodes.

They focus on the main cast plenty well. Shredder and his main henchmen get plenty of focus, as does Karai and the Mutanimals.

The mutant of the weeks are not intended to be developed characters, that's why most of them are mindless monsters that don't even speak.

Huh. This thread went interesting places. :teek:

Um... back on topic? :o

If they can strike a nice balance of Archie and IDW's respective characters, put him in. Personally, go with his design from Tournament Fighters, that to me is possible Ray's best design, just lighten the blue color and boom. Only problem is that besides the Mutanimals, where exactly would he fit? :ohwell: He should've been introduced earlier instead of just a cameo in season 4 with Mikey's thoughts. Probably best he's in the next series.

The problem is the Nick series does a really poor job at adapting some of the old characters, they just take there names and do something different with them, they only do well when creating new characters.

a mutant Manta Ray would show up, and and Mikey will just call it Ray Fillet.

You usually seem to go along with pretty much anything; which character adaptations have disappointed you?

Hun and Casey were kind of disapointments (though Hun is growing on me). I was expecting an adaptation more like IDW Hun.

Outside a few characters most of the characters are the same as they've always been with slight tweaks.

I feel like we've got enough characters from the old Playmates toyline referenced or re-imagined in some form or another. I'd rather see some more obscure characters get used, like Jagwar and Dreadmon. If any of the original Mutanimals deserve to be brought back, it's those two!

I dont see why he would leave Bikini Bottom for New York but sure he would cool

At this point I prefer more Xever

On this we agree, they recast everyone for "The Tick" so I need more Christian Lanz in my life.

EDIT: NEVERMIND-mixed up those voice actors.

What's weird?

-Powder and I are fine. We both love animals.

-The current IDW Man-ray looks uninspired.

-he could use a heavy redesign.

I didn't say "weird"; I specifically said "interesting." You posting that pic and then you and Powder arguing over it.

It was interesting. Tell me how it WASN'T interesting. :tlol:

I think the most disappointing character adaptions have been Rahzar and Tokka.

Those two are the biggest disappointments, because they are nothing like the original characters, they are in name only.

Fair points!

Ohhhh c'mon now.

You guys.

I'm trying to say Ray fillet, or Man-ray makes no sense.

Shaddup, those are way cooler than regular Tokka and Rahzar. The only thing that sucks is that Tokka is too big for a toy. Badass designs on both of them.

I'm with my man Snake on that one.

I disagree, If those two characters were adapted in IDW, they would do a much better job since, they would make them stay true to the original characters.

So you dislike when characters aren't true to their roots, yet you champion the Bay films like no other... Okay.
