Will Nick use Bebop and Rocksteady?
 

Given they have appeared in their human forms in the IDW series, with the strong indication that they will be mutated, do you think we'll see them in cartoon?

Maybe .

I suppose if eastman can bring them into the comics then they can bring them into the cartoon updated.

I'd be amazed if they didn't use them. They're two of the TMNT's best known and most popular villains.

And yet they're not using Krang, just a species based on him called The Kraang.

I am hoping Krang shows up as their leader later on.

That's a good question? I wouldn't think so, but hey, you never know.

This.

I'm not 100% certain they'll show up after all since they aren't using Krang, I do hope we eventually get Krang. Heck since The Kraang are using Utrom suits we might not even see Utroms in this series..

The Kraang are this show's version of the Utroms.

100% guaranteed.

I hope not. I may be the minority, but I never cared for Bebop and Rocksteady. They just irritated me more than anything.

I hope they're brought on board. Just not as dumb as they were on the OT.

Give how their classic figures still sell, I'd see no reason not to bring them back, perhaps even as the leaders of the Purple Dragons if that is used. I'm not the producer or writer however, so we'll just have to wait and see. And since this show is aimed at 4 and up, I wouldn't be surprised if they get stupid once in awhile, which I don't mind as long as it doesn't go over the top.

I don't mind if they use Bebop and Rocksteady. I just hope they don't get too dumb. I always thought Hun would be like a Bebop and Rocksteady clone, but he turned out to be tougher than I thought he'd be and made a good villain.

I hope so, id really love to see them again.

One can only hope, but in all honesty I doubt they will

No reason to doubt it for a second. Just a question of When they will appear and how "edgy" Nick will make them.

I hope so! I miss those guys. I'm thrilled they've shown up in IDW. :)

It's a repackaging/repurposing of the Fred Wolf series... they belong here.

It's a little too early to tell that, in my opinion. So far, the only tangible connections to the Original Toon are the Kraang, and Rob Paulsen. Still, the revelation that mutation will play a large role is good evidence that Bebop and Rocksteady will be brought back.
