Who else thinks they should have mutated Xever into Tokka?
For some reason, in this series, they made Tokka some space kaiju turtle thing. Since Bradford became Rahzar with his second mutation, I think they should have mutated Xever a second time as well and made him Tokka instead.
How would that work? After all, both of Bradford's mutations were dog-based. So in Xever's case, since he was mutated into a fish and not a turtle, they could have de-mutated him, only for him to get mutated again, this time as a snapping turtle. And with that, we would have had Bebop and Rocksteady, and Tokka and Rahzar all working together in the same series. |

Nah. While I didn't particularly like Dogpound becoming Rahzar, the design was sick, & at least a dog evolving into a wolf made some sense. A fish to a turtle, eh, a bit more of a stretch.
I liked Gamera-Tokka plenty. If anything, I'd have preferred Rahzar ALSO be a kaiju, so they could fight one another. |

While I think it would've been a bit much to get another mutant turtle in the main series, Fish Face turning into Tokka would've been fun to see in something like a Dream Sequence.

Bradford should've remained Dogpound, that character had plenty of potential. I Understand that he got hit hard avec villain decay but I was sad they got rid of him. Rahzar was cool as was Tokka but I would've definitely like a version where both could've interacted and Rahzar wasn't a second mutation.

Going from mutant fish to turtle is a bit of a stretch, even for this show. Maybe just become Tokka from the get-go. Would lose the space monster Tokaa, but that really wasn't a vital piece of the story anyhow.

It was definitely bizzare that they gave Shredder 2 henchmen, and one ends up being Rahzar with zero relation to Tokka.
Obviously Bradford died in Owari, but my personal hope was always that Chompy would get mutated or something and end up on some adventure with him. No real story reason for that to happen, just would have been nice to see them as a duo in some capacity. |
