Kirby mutating into a bat
 

So i saw on another thread a list of upcoming toys for 2014, and one of them listed was "Kirby Bat".

This would mean the bat in the season two sneak peak is kirby and not wingnut

This is interesting because the 4Kid series had a character called Kirby, Which was dedicated to Jack Kirby the artist. I wonder if there is some sort of connection.

If that turns out to be true, I hope it will only a a temporary mutation. I like Kirby the way he is. There is only a handful on human characters still in the show.

April's dad becoming a mutant would be interesting. I wonder how she would react to it, No doubt she will ask Donetello to help him change back somehow.

I'm willing to bet, Kirby is the one who will push April out of the way as that Canister of Mutagen falls towards her and then hes hit by it, then causing his mutation as a Bat, Based on the previews we seen from SDCC 2013.

Maybe in the Season 2 preview we saw at Comic-con where April was about to get swarmed by cans of Mutagen, Kirby throws himself there to protect April thus turning into a Mutant himself?

I wonder if he's like Man-Bat from Batman?

Kirby was experimenting with mutagen and wanted to see if he could become an intelligent mutant like the turtles. He tries it with a bat. And at first, Kirby can talk, and can function like a human, But soon becomes mindless. He would go through "shifts", One moment he's a intelligent mutant, and the next, a mindless monster.

What do you think?

You mean something similar to what Falco was doing?

I doubt he'd want to become a mutant willingly. After all, he has April to take care of. My guess is that he somehow accidently comes in contact with the mutagen.

Well at least we know the bat creature isn't Wingnut.

awww.....I'm tired of April going emo because of her dad....

gosh can't the man just stay home and drink some hot cocoa!! XD
anyway....I hope he gets cured quickly if he is gonna mutate.

also those mutagen cans were falling so slow....April could totally just dodge them herself! she's looking straight at it!! I mean come on she's trained with Splinter.......(though I'm pretty sure that's not the reason Kirby was mutated)

The first thing I thought was Kirby in a baseball bat form.

And I just laughed.

they need to stop mutating everyone, should just leave him as he is.

Maybe Shredder kidnaps him and forces him to make the robot foot soldiers.
now that Baxter is no longer with Shredder, they need a scientist guy..

thats exactly what i thought. i think we all know april is going to be saved...or just step out of the way, but thats too easy....so we can assume whoever saves he will get mutated. and unless theyre going to re mutate a turtle, mutate casey, have baxter save her, my bet is on kirby pushing her out of the way.

i really hope its only temporary, cause i dont want all but a few humans mutated, or depressed april again, but i feel like itll be bat kirby for awhile

Shredder is more likely to implement Kraang droids as foot soldiers. April's dad is a psychologist not an engineer.

As for Kirby being a bat...it is possible Kirby finds a piece of the power cell or some Kraang thing and then later on shares the same fate of the Jack Kirby character in the mirage/2k3 series.

I think it works out. Kirby isn't a character that really works since he would hinder April's independence. He's the kind of character that works best when he's not around. Season one had him kidnapped for the season... so season 2 can have him mutate and fly off or whatever as an excuse to nnot have him around.

maybe Kirby mutates a bat...:D and it's called "Kirby's bat" eh! eeeh!

......yea...I know....wishful thinking...

I just don't want April depressed again...

that makes sense, since otherwise i doubt kirby would want april training to be a ninja.

And that would drive Donnie harder to create a cure for the Mutagen. Because if he could somehow return the Pulverizer to being human, what is to stop him from returning other people to normal like Rockwell and Splinter.

Rockwell is still human, just his face got badly burned and he gained the telepathic communication w/ rats
