Super Shredder Speculation Thread
 

We've seen the episode of Shredder recovering in his new lair. Mutagen is being fueled into his bloodstream and revealing his eyes glowing.

If it's a sign Super Shredder is coming, how do you all picture the new "Super Shredder" in 2012 version?

There was a toy of him revealed at this years toy fair. I understand some people might not want to be spoiled, so I won't post it. It's online though.

I picture him looking like the toy that confirmed his existence.

He basically looks like Joker on Bane's venom from the first Batman Arkham Aslyum game on PS3/360

Is he gonna be a screaming behemoth and get beaten by fallen wooden planks again lol. Weak.

He better be something cool. And that mutagen must be able to heal his burned face.

So let's say he goes Super Shredder and Splinter and the Turtles defeat him. Then what? Who's the main bad guy after that? Or does the Shred Dude return to normal and still pose a threat?

Well I doubt Super Shredder will be defeated quickly. I bet when the 1st time the turtles will face him, they will be defeated and get injured.

Then maybe in season 5, if season 5 is the last season the turtles will defeat Super Shredder.

Remember a few years ago when that Bauer guy would come throw a fit in any speculation thread because it was "ruining the experience"? Good times.

Except not really.

I wish we could have the photo of the super shredder figure sticky'd above every thread in the Nick section

I guarantee you people would still be wondering what he'll look like

I don't know maybe its some Bishop like figure who sees all these mutations and aliens and want some sort of counter force or it might be some OC who notice all of these nice Kraang tech and wants to start an empire, or maybe after Shredder's death his henchmen go on their separate ways with Xever controlling the underworld, Bradford controlling the foot, Zeck stealing crap, Rocksteady controlling smuggling rings, and Baxter controlling black market science goods

Just Googled it. Whoa.

There has been mention of a Human's vs. Mutants arc. It hasn't been confirmed as to where this would happen, though it is plausible it could occur as part of the City at War arc.

And there is the OT character Dirk Savage. I could certainly see Nick revising him and making him into a commanding officer of the Anti-mutant task force.

Since they didn't do at the end of the Triceraton arc, I think Super Shredder may actually succeed in killing Splinter this time.

Giving the turtles the motivation to finally kill Shredder in the season finale.

granted the 2003 series already did this but the tmnt verse has room for a ton of stuff after the original shredder's end. time travel into the distant future, cyber shredder, tengu shredder, ninja tribunal arc that doesn't evolve the tengu shredder. additional space arcs with the triceritons (don't believe they are finished for good) there is probably tons of room for stuff from the comics that i have never heard of and has never been animated. not to mention there is no reason why they cant make stuff up just for the cartoon.

I'd rather they not constantly re-hash Shredder like others have in the past. It's been good that they've kept him pretty low key in this series.

i agree in principle but i feel like tengu shredder and cyber shredder could be done in different ways or fleshed out as they haven't been previously. and tengu isn't really shredder in any case. also i am a sucker for mystical stuff in general and tengu's/youkai in particular.

A character named Kavaxas.
How is tengu not really Shredder? He was the only legitimate Shredder on the show.

i really thought it'd be obvious but he is not really shredder because the show already has a character named shredder. and unlike cyber shredder, tengu shredder, is not an engram of the character already called shredder. unless the two are merged at some point, which might happen, they are different characters that aside from inspiration have nothing to do with each other.

He actually is the real Shredder though. The other Shredder is just an impostor of him.
