Turtle Game Roster

[BentonGrey]

So, in working on my TMNT mod, I've got pretty much all of the characters I need for the first story arc finished or close to it. I'm debating on exactly which of the other arcs I have in mind to go with next, and I thought it might be fun to see what the fan base is interested in. What I can get done will depend heavily on who I can get created for Freedom Force, but knowing where interest lies can still be helpful. Please feel free to let me know what choice you made and why. If you choose an option with multiple possibilities, please let me know which character you're most interested in.

It should be noted that the first story arc already includes the four Turtles themselves, Casey Jones, April, Splinter, Shredder, Krang, Bebop, and Rocksteady. Plus, I plan on using Baxter Stockman/The Fly soon.

Somebody completely obscure would be nice.

Howdy, thanks for responding. Who would you consider really obscure? Give me some ideas, 'cause obscure to one person isn't necessarily the same to another.

[Ninjinister]

Depends. Are you restricting yourself to MWS/Adventures characters?

[Xav]

I think Chrome Dome could look cool.

Good question Ninjinister. I'm more or less sticking with the original 'toon, the Archie comics, and the beginninng of the original comics run (because I've only read the first 30 or 40 issues). I'm not dead-set against anything else, but that is what I'm familiar with.

Hmm, Chrome Dome would be cool, Xav. I hadn't really thought about him, but I've always kind of liked Metalhead more.

I wonder if I should add Dirtbag and Groundchuck to the list. I know a lot of people are fond of them....

[Ninjinister]

I was thinking something obscure like this guy: http://tmnt.wikia.com/wiki/Usub_Gerstalk

He doesn't fit your criteria, though.

If not him, then... well, I've always liked Al Falqa.

[BentonGrey]

Ahh, Al Falqa would be cool. I always liked him too. I really hope I can get some kind of flying character made from the ranks for the Turtle's allies. It would be cool to have a flyer be recruitable for the campaign.

Other well known characters would be Tokka and Rahzar, The Stone Warriors including General Traag and Granitor for obscure characters what about Tora and Shogun the intergalactic bounty hunters from TMNT 2: The Arcade Game.

Well there is always Wingnut.

Right, who is in the Mighty Mutanimals (that's where my vote went).

[Fugitoid Jones]

Ace Duck (Adventures version) would be pretty cool.

[shuriken]

All hail the Rat King.

Hmm...I hadn't considered Tokka and Rahzar. What was their deal in the 'toon? I know they were incorporated into that story. As for the Rock Soldiers/Stone Warriors, I'll be using them for sure. I should have mentioned them in my first post. They'll be providing some new minions for the bad guys once this first story arc is over. I'll be having Traag show up eventually, and IF I can get Granitor made, he'll put in an apperance too. I don't know about tora and Shogun though. I don't think I ever played through their portions of that game. What's their story?

Wingnut! Ahh, he's one of my favorites, he and Screwloose both. It's actually one of my dreams to see both of those two made, along with the action figure version of Ace Duck. They were some of my favorite toys. It's relatively likely that I might manage to get Ace Duck made, but Wingnut and screwloose are going to be tricky. They are actually the guys I would most like to have as the Turtles flying support. I've even already given some thought to how I'd balance them in the game, and I think they'd make for some good gameplay.

[Xav]

Did you ever think about the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse?

Shogun: http://tmnt.wikia.com/wiki/Shogun
Tora: http://tmnt.wikia.com/wiki/Tora

Tokka & Rahzar only showed up in one episode of the original cartoon, Season 7's Dirk Savage: Mutant Hunter. There wasn't really much explanation about their backstory. Tokka just got kidnapped by Dirk Savage and Rahzar wanted to bust him out by any means necessary. Both of them really got lost in the convoluted plot and forgotten by the end of the episode. Sad really, since it might have been cool for them to face off against Bebop and Rocksteady at some point!

[BentonGrey]

Thanks Ninjinister! I hadn't ever heard of those guys before.

Hmm, well that's sorta' disappointing Winters. They should DEFINITELY have faced off against Bebop and Rocksteady!

Yep, I have thought about them before. They interest me a little bit, but I'm not entirely sure what I'd do with them. I think the various mutant creatures/aliens are more interesting to me for some reason.
