1987 cartoon

The 1987 cartoon had probably many types of mutagen.

In the OT Splinter touched the turtles last and became a rat.

Humans mutating. Well there's various forms of Mutagenic compounds. You could just end up being all furry like what happened to Beast. His fur was a result of him falling in a vat of mutagenic compound.

You know what's really weird? There was an ep of the OT where Shredder had an anti-mutagen that allowed anybody who was mutated turn into what they were before (actually 2 eps as Splinter became human again for a time). The anti-mutagen was in cookies. Mikey ate one and...became human! WTF? And when his brothers discovered what had been done they went looking for him...To this day I wonder how they KNEW what Mikey would look like as a human. They never saw him turn and they looked thru the city and saw somebody who might be him. It was weird.

Where did you get that preposterous hypothesis? Did Steve tell you that perchance?

It didn't matter. I was what...like 6 years old when the old toon was airing and I didn't care that humans transformed into animals or vice versa.

I guess that like the Turtles/Splinter and Leatherhead, it just made more sense to continue in that direction with more animal mutants than anything else.

I've always wondered that too...

I mean they didn't even cure him when they did the others... Heck! Even a lame excuse like he had full control over it with his ninja mind control powers that he apparently had in that series would have made more sense!

There was the retro-mutation gun featured in Shredder Gets Splintered, which Shredder demonstrated on video showing his shooting a mutant punk with it, with the punk reverting to his original human state. But it shot some sort of electric ray, rather than dispensing a chemical. But the episode you refer to I wouldn't call an anti-mutagen, for eating the cookies would then have turned Michelangelo into a pet shop turtle!

Also in that episode, the Turtles sprayed chermical on a random teenager they thought was Michelangelo (and wasn't), and I think the Human Michelangelo was the one who located his fellow Turtles.

And I am reminded of the episode The Gang's All Here, where Rcoksteady and Bebop have to meet with the members of their old gang, and since they are mutants their old gang of course fails to recognize them. So Rocksteady says that he will prove who he is, and runs through a brick wall, smashing it. Then one member says that he is convinced Rocksteady is who he was, because only he would do something so stupid.

I think the human would develop a mutation of some sort.

I find the OT ooze more interesting. Not to mention the whole Splinter/Shredder rivalry makes a lot more sense.

Mirage

I belive it would affect a human in Mirage as with Shredder in the second movie, growing, maybe also in intelligence.

And what about Mutegen Man... or was that another type of mutagen all together? I forgot. And isn't Pizza Face a mutant too, technically?

I agree, hugely inconsistent.

Pizza Face baked himself in a Retromutagen Oven.... whatever the damn hell that means.. o.O I mean was he trying to commit suicide???

Mutagen Man fell in some sort of mutagen acid or whatever. I still don't know how the OT got away with the scene of the poor geek's body parts randomly floating around in the vat of Mutagen. And considering he's like... a brain and spinal cord floating around in a jar filled with Mutagen that somehow has arms and legs.... he was like OT Baxter, wasn't he?

Then we have Muckman that somehow mutated into some sort of.... living pile of garbage and his lil buddy turned into some lil yellow thing...... the hell???

Official explanations are Mutagen Man's mutagen lacked "Bindex 3," which made his transformation unstable, and Muckman wasn't transformed by Krang's mutagen. It was another chemical Rocksteady and Bebop dumped out of a lab.

Yeah, I always wondered that, too. Wouldn't he've become a rat/turtle hybrid? same with Dirtbag & Groundchuck, I say this, cause the last people to touch them were Rocksteady & Bebop, whom were already mutated, so technically shouldn't they've turn into humanoid versions of the animals that they were, plus a little mix of warthog & rhino?

Question for the OT fans:

What if I touched some old cartoon mutagen... when the last person I touched was myself?

Not Dong-Man? If the answer is yes then mark me down as a fan of the idea.
