Mondo Gecko

MaximeLoonatic · 08-14-2013, 09:44 AM

I had this sudden thought about the 80s character, Mondo Gecko. Have you wondered if he may appear in the show? I can picture him being raised by a homeless woman, learning how to survive in the streets; even stealing just for need

I would like to see him. Who doesn't love a heavy metal lizard.

he might have an appearance similar to his Archie comics version

Ravenxl7 · 08-14-2013, 01:22 PM

Could be interesting. Maybe have him tied to Newtralizer somehow.

I would like to see Mondo Gecko appear in the Nick series. As long as they stick to the origins from the archies series comic and not the original series.

In the original series. They completely retconned the Turtles origins by adding Mondo Gecky being exposed by the same mutagen in the sewers.

In the Archies series comic. Mondo Gecko was a human who was part of a rock band who had a pet Gecko, He was knocked onto cans that had mutagen spilled all over and he got exposed by that.

I think it would be cool if he was on the show, but if not, I wouldn't really be upset about it.

I hope if they bring him in, he's still Mikey's friend. Mikey needs a fellow 'duuuuude' to hang out with.

I could very easily see Leatherhead and Newtralizer forming some form of anti-Kraang army, which would likely end up being this series' version of the Mutanimals.

Ah, Mondo Gecko. My first TMNT figure. I would want to see him simply for the figure possibility but I've always loved him as a character. Although, I would hope Ciro creates a new origin story altogether. There's some characters along with MG, that if introduced in the Nick series, could use a origin retooling.

Yeah, Based on the footage we seen from SDCC 2013 for Season 2, We could see more mutants showing up. So there's the potential for Mondo Gecko showing up.

I'm hoping, with the footage shown of season 2, that a lot of old school mutants make an appearance. I don't care if they have a major role or not, it'd just be interesting to see Nick's take on their design. I imagine scenes of the turtles on patrol and Mondo skating past in the background or Ray Filet swimming past the turtle sub porthole. That said, I always loved my Mondo Gecko figure and would love to have a new, updated one.

I forgot all about Newtralizer. I don't see them having two mutant lizards. Bummer.
