Anyone get the feeling the Cockroach mutant will become Scumbug?
 
Nick seems to be turning tons of new characters into old characters, with Dr. Falco becoming The Rat King, Miwa being Karai, Timothy becoming Mutagen Man, Dogpound becoming Rahzar, Bradford's armor becoming Chrome Dome, Spike becoming Slash, and so forth.

That's actually a ton of characters who actually just became classic characters.

So we have that Cockroach Terminator mutant...and we saw him change forms in his episode. Do you think next time he shows up he'll change form to resemble Scumbug? And maybe be able to talk and say, "Everyone, I am Scumbug now!"

can you tell me how the hell a cyborg roach will turn into a human bug exterminator....?

Powder 12-01-2013 11:49 PM

Stranger things have happened. Don't be like that just because you dislike CC, man. It's totally possible. Besides, many origins and characters have been changed. It doesn't necessarily have to be an exterminator in the event it becomes Scumbug.

Rukitron 12-02-2013 12:09 AM

I like the old exterminator angle.
A very small possibility at this point. Same if Kirby Bat became Wingnut... So who knows.

Who said he had to become human? Scumbug didn't have an origin in the original cartoon.

We've seen the Cockroach change forms and break out of its shell...now imagine it changing/evolving (lol, pokemon), into a Scumbug like design. Preferably the purple look from the toy/cartoon over Archie's design.

Yeah, and Fishface becomes Armaggon, Monster of Doom becomes Nano, that hobo becomes Nobody, ICK becomes Old Hob, and so on and so forth.

Do you just search for posts by CC so you can disagree with all of them? Every post by CC is followed by a post from you now.

I was actually hoping that Cockroach Terminator would be hunted by a very tenacious exterminator who would become Scumbug.

I think the show should become a little less preoccupied with mutations and remutations for a while.

Agreed. They should start working on the stories and arcs and what direction they're going with these guys so they don't just feel endlessly tossed out there. I don't mind the one-off episodes, but they shouldn't start becoming a staple.

People don't want new characters based on old animals though, they might as well just use the old ones in the first place.

Imagine if they introduced a new mutant Rhino but he wasn't Rocksteady, and instead a totally different mutant rhino character? People would call foul.

And you do the same to me? This was a recent post, it wasn't some random post on page 35 or something. And also, where are you getting this nonsense that I dislike the guy? I have no personal beef with the guy. Our opinions of TMNT clash at times, but I got nothing personal against him. On the other hand, I seem to keep pushing your buttons for whatever reason.

Some animals lend themselves to different versions than others. Cats and dogs are more common place and there are so many breeds we can have mutated. Rhinos and Warthogs are more rare and particular... while a warthog could look rather different (he doesn't have to have to a purple mohawk and shades), but it's almost impossible to have a mutant Rhino and not have it look like Rocksteady and have the fans cry foul.

Plus let's watch the show and see what happens. Just cause Dogpound became Rahzar doesn't mean we're gonna have multiple mutations for everyone. Hell if it did, what happened to him would be less special and significant. For all we know, Bradford could be the 'Baxter' of the series and have a new form every season.

No offense CC but you SERIOUSLY need to take off your nostalgia goggles.

Garfield 12-09-2013 03:14 PM

They should just make a giant ooze blob of cells, chromosomes, atoms and molecules, and just say that its everyone. Every TMNT character ever created this thing is. It can roll about on a white back drop for 24 minutes every Saturday morning for the next few years.

Aaronardo 12-09-2013 03:17 PM

Actually, guys, I can see it happening. Think about it, there IS a pattern here after all. CT could become Scumbug. And for those who are saying that they're not the same species, I'm pretty sure Dogpound wasn't a dog before the mutation, that Fishface wasn't a fish before his mutation, and that Rahzar wasn't a humanoid wolf-dog... thing... beforehand.

That makes no sense in this context. Nice try.

LeotheLateBloomer 12-09-2013 04:19 PM

Yeah, I'm just now starting to see how he really is.

Powder 12-09-2013 05:47 PM

I like how you're ignoring the fact that this is a totally possible thing, and as posters have proven, likely, given the shows history with character 'transformations'.

Electric 12-09-2013 06:03 PM

i think itd definitely be possible. as well as others like fishface to armaggon. im all for it too. but, i would say limit it to one or two more. it could get really confusing with multiple characters having two+ different names a forms. it could also get predictable.

dogpound to rhazar completely caught everyone off guard. it hadnt been hinted at, and besides a confusing toy name release, rhazar wasnt really expected, let alone from dogpound. i think thats what made a lot of people like it, was the sheer surprise. if every mutant starts to get double mutated, itll just be a waiting game, like it is right now with baxter to his fly form.

A roach into a bug exterminator? That's a bit of a stretch. And hopefully they don't because this show doesn't need that many more mutations.
