There Should be a Black Costume Raph Figure

Chef Boyarquoa · 03-15-2007, 12:25 PM

The black costume that Raph wears during the Intergalactic Wrestling days of the Archie Comics could be a pretty sweet action figure. I always thought Raph looked pretty cool in the all black and that could make for a cool figure. What do you guys think?

Never saw that one {I know ... bad bunny} but Raph in black sounds COOL!

*Garou* · 03-15-2007, 01:06 PM

Yeah, he looked cool in that outfit. And it could have been fun, because Raph didn't want to take it off afterwards, if I recall it somewhat correctly. I haven't read that comic for a long while...

Raph86 · 03-15-2007, 01:29 PM

Ya that would be cool, but it wouldn't happen because the figures are based on the cartoons.

*VaughnMichael* · 03-15-2007, 01:38 PM

yeah you know those looks are based on the orignal concept designs for the tmnt's more super hero look back in the day.
It's very much to late for a line of archie tmnt figure to bad tmnt and mirage never became huge like marvel so we could get figures from every tmnt universe.

Yeah, that would have been sweet. Having Archie TMNT Comic characters figures! The Wrestling-Suit Raph would've been nice. And, to note a couple I'd like to have seen -- Armagon, and Bellybomb.

Not exactly....because Slash looks more like his comic counterpart, and Ray Fillet never was in the show.

*discordiatookie* · 03-15-2007, 07:35 PM

Here's what it looks like!

and I done a custom figure about a year back. I had already painted my Raph up as a Shredder type dude, and wanted a black one too, but ended up painting a Leo as I only had one Raph fig...

And yeah, different Turtles figures from the various universes would be ace! Imagine the vol 4: GameraRaph, mini Don with Exosuit, Space type Mikey (in the uniform he had on with the Triceratons) and, erm, a normal Leo! (perhaps with Battle Nexus scrolls...) vol 3: RoboDon and scarred Raph (with Casey mask, of course!) perhaps even a BatSplinter, and Casey with his stars and stripes mask!! Some AC Farley figures, original Mirage versions, the list is endless!!!

He's in Rebel without a fin bud.

As for the black suit I'd love to see a figure of it too but oh well.

That wasn't Ray Fillet, bud....it was a generic fish villian named Ray.

I think it's RF, and I'm not the only one so I guess that's a matter of opinion.

I can live with that...

Ray Fillet=Man Ray. Ask Steve Murphy if you don't believe me, he'll tell you that they simply had to change the name when they made the action figure for legal reasons.

Well, that's for the toy vs. Archie Comics part of things (though, in a strange twist, the Merdude mini-series did call him Ray Fillet).

The Classic Toon (which is what's being debated) had the character-in-question just named "Ray", and quite different in appearence. Though I too feel it was Ray Fillet.

hmmm, and I could grab a Metalhead figure, give him a bo staff, and find one of the mini playsets' Donnie, (y'know, the real tiny ones!) and there's a vol 4 Don set!! Half way there already!! A new toon Fugitoid and Utrom would fit in too, and also grab an X-men Angel figure, cut off his feet and replace with chicken legs and Hey Presto! a Raptarr!!!

And that's how to make your own vol 4 playsets!!!
