Nickelodeon TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES :: THE RAT KING { tOkKustom vermin wash } (( 2013 ))

☣ ☣

–>> .. i’m convinced Falco’s figure is a really decent interpretation of your favourite Rodent Sovereign. But you know the drill with Playmates; to keep costs low – so to sometimes on these figures paint apps will look different than how you may expect or different than their prototypes, or may be totally eradicated from some portions of the figure altogether. Rat King had a little bit of this issue going on as you may recall. –

THE RAT KING

TELEPATHIC COMMANDER OF THE RAT ARMY

Cold-Blooded and deceitful, formerly known as Dr. Falco. The Rat King is determined to rid the city of humanity and claim it for his rat brothers. He is able to see through the eyes of rats and control them with his telepathic powers. Destined to take down the Turtles, the city should be wary of the one called The Rat King.

• WEAPONS: Army of Rats & Telepathic Powers
•TEAM: Rats, Kraang

There’s no rule stating you can’t take matters into your own hands to make your new toy better. Some light metallic spray paint misted on, a simple black acrylic paint wash and some careful painted details on his rodent minions, and R.K. starts to look much filthier and a bit better. Hopefully a little bit creepier too.

☣ ☣

.. the ‘RAT O’Lantern’ taken and modified from ‘CREEPY CRAWLIN’ SPLINTER’ – 1990.

Works perfectly for the Rat King so he can see his way thru’ particularly darker corridors of the sewers n’ catacombs of NYC.

Workin’ Fans UPDATE :: SURF NINJAS 20,Digger Mesch’s Zombie Killer Obama Halted,HUN,Cereal Geek,Glo n’ GROW Turtles, The return of Rahzar – et. al.

An interesting, controversial, suspicious and speculative bit on Digger’s THE OTHER DEAD ::

“The creators of “The Other Dead” are three heavy-hitters in the comic industry: Joshua Ortega (Gears of War), Digger T. Mesch (Agent 88), and Kevin Eastman (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles). The cover is also the work of a well-known comic book illustrator, Dave Dorman.

Suddenly, though, there’s a hitch in the publisher’s plans to release the comic on the 12th anniversary of the 9/11 attack on America, and you’ll never guess why: a moth infestation.”

** TMNT DREAM LITES @ TRU **

..of note, an interesting & weird Turtle license as of late are the uber-cute and ‘RETRO’ styled Turtle DREAM LITES assortment. TMNT & Hello Kitty apparently are among the first licensed franchises to be adapted to the popular “starry night-light” stuffed animal assortment. Interesting how they utilize the ‘Retro’ styling to the mainly children’s product. H’m ..what a great way for kids and adult TMNT fans to bond; and maybe even to provide some comfort from the dark for the littlest of fans ( or nerdiest of MEGA-FANS >;B .. j/k ).

“TURTLE GAMES” TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES :: POWER LIFTIN’ DON (( 1992 ))

** View LARGE On Black **

PORTRAIT OF POWERLIFTIN’ DON
The Super Strong Sewer Sportsman

VITAL LIFTISTICS:

Accessories: Turtle Shell Barbells, Bo Pole & Turtle Games Gold Medal!
Record Lift: 2000 Turtle Tons
Recommended Food: Anti-Foot Fiber
Best Bench Press: Flattened a park bench to under 2 inches

Ornery and oiled, Powerliftin’ Don’s comin’ on strong. And this wacky weightlifter’s got a Mutant message for all the lightweight wimps, “No pain, no pizza.” He’s the biggest and the bulkiest of the best in the Turtle Games – and he’s loaded down with massive Mutant muscle and tons o’ Turtle tone. It’s no problem for this all-American bulk boy to lift lead, ’cause he works out with his Turtle Shell Barbells. He’s ready and willin’ to clean ‘n jerk the Clan and clobber ’em with his power-packed punch, not to mention, win the Turtle Games Gold Medal. Nothing can stop this ripplin’ reptile, ’cause he’s in super sewer shape! Let the games begin!

–>> Decals of the “USA” and Flag are also used on the variant otherwise they painted on along with the medal on some figures.

The decal of Don’s number on the back seems to be consistent on ALL figures.

Mutant Military TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES :: RAPH, THE GREEN TEEN BERET (( 1991 ))

** View LARGE On Black **

☠ ☠

” We’re looking for a few good mutants! ”

** View On Black **

☠ ☠

PORTRAIT OF RAPH, THE GREEN TEEN BERET
The Toughest Tactical Turtle!

Accessories: Whip Cream Pistol, Plunger Gun, Anti-Foot Flag, Biting Bulldog Buddy
Favorite Hero: Gomer Reptile
Favorite Weapon: Bare hands

Like a silent green ghost parachuting in the dead of night, Raph is the toughest tactical Turtle to take on the Foot. Trained to tenderize Shredder and rescue April, this guerilla-gripped green good guy always completes his secret sewer mutant missions. Sabotage and espionage are the tools of his trade; for a true Green Teen Beret needs not the weapons of wicked warriors. No, rather, Raph uses his justifiable jungle sense and super soldier skills to make his bare hands his greatest weapon. But if the goin’ gets really rough, Raph’s got wacky weapons to fool the Foot. One shot from his whip cream pistol and he’s just chopped nuts and a cherry away from a victory sundae. So raise the anti-Foot flag high – and wave it proudly. Democracy rules, dudes!
