Yeah, but that was season 1, most of those old characters will come back.

Most of the old mutants might just get all thrown in the same episodes together, such as the minor ones like Spiderbitez, Cockroach, etc.

The only ones I see getting big episodes again are Leatherhead, Rat King and Newtralizer.

It would be pretty cool to see those two again, but it does seem like the show is getting a tad bit crowded. I'd probably rather have the producers use the air time on already established villains, like Rat King, and Snakeweed.

*CyberCubed* · 09-04-2013, 08:28 PM

I don't think the writers intended all those random mutants to be major characters, they're all essentially filler villains.

The only one we know that's coming back with a big role is The Newtralizer. Other than Rat King/Leatherhead/Baxter....the others may just get minor roles.

I am thinking it's probably part of a classic re-release. They are even re-releasing the original playmates figures again.

Yeah, but I thought the Classics were TRU releases only, and doesn't he work for Wal-Mart?

The thing is the Rahzar figure is not listed with those 1987 toy re-releases. The Rahzar figure is listed alongside Nick Slash, Tiger Claw, etc.

I noticed that too, we've got two speculation threads about the same topic now.

yeah but that was season one, they had to get a foundation for most of the characters for later seasons. with everything they released so far, if tokka or rahzar would be coming, i feel like it would be overshadowed. Or that they would have already mentioned something.

They seem to have a fair amount of new main mutants coming: mutagen man, slash, tigerclaw,fly baxter, newtralizer becoming more important, possibly wingnut, and then all those fillers like the squirrel, the owl etc. So if you add in the kraang and foot, shredder and karai, casey, im sure new developments with april, return of rat king and who knows how many of the other season 1 mutants, season two has all the same amount of characters to be used in episodes, which is why i really dont think theyll be coming in season 2, unless theyre involved in the OT turtle appearance. but with that, i could definitly see them coming in season 3

So...are we going off of...nothing on this?

If Playmates is making a toy of a character for the Nick line, chances are that character is showing up. I severely doubt one of the Playmates employees would say, "Hey, let's make a new Rahzar figure!" and model him after the Nick designs for no reason at all.

Also as I said, the Rahzar listing is right next to other Nick figures like Slash, Tiger Claw, Mutagen Man, etc. who are all Season 2 figures.

**Jester** · 09-05-2013, 01:15 PM

Are you sure? No one has assumed a Nick Bebop and Rocksteady and they are on the list. I'm really wondering if this Rahzar, though himself odd with out Tokka, is a re-release in original Playmates Rahzar in the classics line. I mean...what are those Bebop and Rocksteady figures, if not re-releases? Too cheap to be the 7 inch "deluxe" classics.

*CyberCubed* · 09-05-2013, 01:22 PM

Here is the photo:

Notice how Rahzar, and even Bebop/Rocksteady, are listed alongside Nick figures.

Also notice that, "Kirby bat" figure, which is that bat creature seen in the trailer, confirming that is not Wingnut afterall.

It can't be the Classic Bebop/Rocksteady, look at the price listings.

Depends on WHICH classics. Are the re-releases not the same price as the NICK figures?

EDIT: Well....holy crap...$12.99 for figures that are just as big as the new Nick figures...are they made with golden plastic?

The classic figures are already out though, the ones based on the old 80's re-releases.

And look at that photo, every other toy listed there are for the Nick line. Even with Turtle variants at the top. Why would just 3 re-releases be listed alongside upcoming Nick figures? It just doesn't fit.

My theory is Bebop/Rocksteady aren't appearing in Season 2 as Nick characters, but they're going to be in the crossover with the 80's Turtles. So they're getting toys.

As for Rahzar, remember Shredder knows what the mutagen does now and it was hinted he wanted more mutants. Him creating Rahzar/Tokka wouldn't be that surprising.

Why would they produce brand new Bebop and Rocksteady figures for a one-off crossover...especially when they haven't even been confirmed to be in said crossover?

Because they're popular characters? What other reason does there need to be?

Could Shredder possibly be mutating Rahzar and Tokka for this series like in Movie 2? I'd also love to see Slash fight Tokka as we've never seen those two meet before.

So either it's a new figure or the Classics Line like the Bebop and Rocksteady.

It's just weird to have Rahzar now and not Tokka...
I cant think of a time when we got one and not the other... it's like splitting Bebop and Rocksteady apart.
