Arshawsky ]]–>> **David Arshawsky**, one of the most noted, and unique sculptors of the classic ( and even 2003 era ) TMNT line recently shared a “lost” extension of his ANAGLYPH Sculpture, early 1990s run of the popular and BIG-TIME TMNT “MEGA MUTANTS” vehicle/figures. What follows the 2up and Resin clay sculpt of the would-be toy are the “ARMY ANT’S” designs and alternate takes before what was actually sculpted came into being !!

NEEDLENOSE
The Bloodsucking Military Mutant Mosquito!

Needlenose, mosquito or jet fighter? How ’bout both! Straight out of Dimension X, he’s the biggest, most bizarre mutant ever. Created by Krang, then bugnapped by Donatello, Needlenose blasts into dogfighting battles against the Foot Clan’s psychotic stingin’ Killer Bee.

Known for his nosedive attack technique, Needlenose can be ridden piggyback while swooping into battle. Hone in on the target with his Air Raid Radar, launch his Bee-seeking missiles, blast away with the Gatlin’ Gun, grab the enemy with his articulated arms or just bite the Foot Clan between the fingers, where it really itches. He’s Needlenose – the Mega Mutant Mosquito – and he’s yours!
