Um... back on topic?

If they can strike a nice balance of Archie and IDW's respective characters, put him in. Personally, go with his design from Tournament Fighters, that to me is possible Ray's best design, just lighten the blue color and boom. Only problem is that besides the Mutanimals, where exactly would he fit? He should've been introduced earlier instead of just a cameo in season 4 with Mikey's thoughts. Probably best he's in the next series.

The problem is the Nick series does a really poor job at adapting some of the old characters, they just take there names and do something different with them, they only do well when creating new characters.

a mutant Manta Ray would show up, and and Mikey will just call it Ray Fillet.

You usually seem to go along with pretty much anything; which character adaptations have disappointed you?

Hun and Casey were kind of disapointments (though Hun is growing on me). I was expecting an adaptation more like IDW Hun.

Outside a few characters most of the characters are the same as they've always been with slight tweaks.

I feel like we've got enough characters from the old Playmates toyline referenced or re-imagined in some form or another. I'd rather see some more obscure characters get used, like Jagwar and Dreadmon. If any of the original Mutanimals deserve to be brought back, it's those two!

On this we agree, they recast everyone for "The Tick" so I need more Christian Lanz in my life.

What's weird?

-Powder and I are fine. We both love animals.

-The current IDW Man-ray looks uninspired.

-he could use a heavy redesign.

I didn't say "weird"; I specifically said "interesting." You posting that pic and then you and Powder arguing over it.

It was interesting. Tell me how it WASN'T interesting.

I think the most disappointing character adaptions have been Rahzar and Tokka.

Those two are the biggest disappointments, because they are nothing like the original characters, they are in name only.

Fred Wolf Tokka & Rahzar



Nickelodeon

Rahzar



Tokka

I'm trying to say Ray fillet, or Man-ray makes no sense.

Shaddup, those are way cooler than regular Tokka and Rahzar. The only thing that sucks is that Tokka is too big for a toy. Badass designs on both of them.

I disagree, If those two characters were adapted in IDW, they would do a much better job since, they would make them stay true to the original characters.

So you dislike when characters aren't true to their roots, yet you champion the Bay films like no other... Okay.
