Krangs Android Body

Well I open this thread because somethings really gives me a headache about Krangs Android Body or bodies!
In the Season 1 Finale "Shredder and Splintered" he gets his Android Body, in the season 3 episode "Four Musketurtles" he changes it against a smaller one which hasn't any Weapons and, I suppose, serves him for walking. He wears it in a number of other episodes too, but wears the "other" body more often.

In the Season 7 Finale "Shredder Triumphant" he is seen leaving the Battleground in his first Body, but in the Season 8 Premiere "Get Shredder" he wears the smaller one again!
Where did he get it? Where did his first go?

PS: Sorry if i made "some" Mistakes, I'm not that good in writting the english language! Sorry!

The smaller body you mentioned is called the bubble walker, and I really don't know why Krang kept using it despite the convenience of his android body.

Presumably the bubble walker is used as a spare when the regular android body is in need of service.

Because Playmates insisted. The bubble walker really only existed because of the Krang action figure being in this 'bubble walker' that actually did have weapons. I'm sure the show was contractually obligated to work toy references into many episodes.

I always thought the bubble walker was a better mode of transpertation than the android body. It seemed more practical some how and less gaudy than the android. Plus it always bothered me like an itch that he had all those cool features and weapons on his robot body and almost never used them

But the android had some cool fight scenes. I love when it breakdances in "The Big" trilogy.
