Weird thing about sandstorm

His left hand has 2 fingers and a thumb like the turtles, his right hand has 3 fingers and a thumb. What's going on here?

What's up with them camel toes?!

Some mutants are like this many people seem to forget that there are many stages of mutation.
It was really talked about in the roll playing games books.
I'd say the form Sandstorm is in there is a middle mutation.
The turtles themselves and splinter are at a form before becoming totally humanoid.

Doctor El is the same way. One hand is humanoid and the other is an elephant's hoof. I always assumed it was meant to illustrate the state of flux that the character's DNA was in. I like the way they did that, as I think that it makes the characters more interesting.

I just took it as they didn't fully mutate. Look at Scumbug, probably the first middle mutant.

Is Sandstorm rare? I'm curious to know because when I was younger I was twisting his waist playing with him and made the little spring mechanism inside pop now he spins round and round at the waist.

I know he's not as rare as my Scratch and Hotspot, but is he another hard one to find?
