Radical Turtle Variants: yet another rant

 Well, as the Ultimates Uncertainty keeps us on edge, Imma rant! Then again that's pretty much what I do every night, Pinky!

So, Variants: I should point out that not necessarily all the variants I'll mention will be off the 4 Turtle brothers. I meant turtle variants as a catch all for TMNT. Most of them will be for the four turtles, though:

Cheapskate Turtles:

This is the Cheapskate toy. It looks way too big for the actual turtle boys.

This is the cartoon version which is properly scaled for the turtles. It lacks some toy elements. What I'm about to propose is marrying the toy colors and element, but scaling it to the cartoon size.

The only "personalized elements" would be the board wheels, throttle control, and fan blades.

(Leo's would be blue, Don's would be purple, etc.) Now unto the Turtles:

These would be vanilla Turtles, with new belts anBible. (For pegholes):

Main differences in belts:

Brown instead of black.

Raphael would lose the push knife sheathe on his shell.

Donatello's straps would be over one shoulder.

Now for accessories:

Standard set of hands

(Both hinge style C-grips, dramatic, fists)

2 heads

Signature weapon(s)

The Cheapskate

Helmet 

Random Accessory or in Don's case 2

Leonardo:

2× katana

Samurai Helmet

Chain Claw (inspired by Talking Leo... and Kung Pow! Enter the Fist)

Determined head

Donatello:

Bo Staff

Tech Helmet with infrared Goggles.

Periscope (inspired by Headdropping Don)

Flashlight (inspired by Storage Shell Mike)

Slightly worried head

Raphael:

2× Sai

Viking Helmet

Sewer squirter (inspired by the role-playing toy)

Snarling Head

Michelangelo:

2× Nunchucks (inspired by the Bugchaku roleplay toy)

Party Wagon Shellmet in Neon Green

Sunglasses

Crazy tongue sticking to the side of head "high speed chase" head

But now the Foot would be underperforming due to a lack of vehicular locomotion.

So, let's give the Foot Clan, a Foot Scoot!

The idea is one of those vintage Scooter/skateboard hybrids (yes, while they existed, this was meant as a BTTF reference, because Turtles in Time)

There is a precedent for rocket powered skateboarding Foot Ninja. I'm simply adding a Scooter handle to the larger than the Cheapskate boards. They have to be larger since the Foot Soldiers are larger than The Turtles.

So, here we go:

Scoot Foot Soldier:

The board should look like a high tech Skateboard. Think the Pitbull Hoverboard but with wheels. The Scooter handle can detach and be used as a melee weapon.

Now the Foot Soldier itself:

Same old Foot Soldier

Same vanilla weapons

New stuff:

Foot Soldier head shaped bike helmet (must look super dorky)

Slip on roller skates (for other Foot Soldoers to be on the roll)

2× Foot Tonfa

Footski Rat King:

Of course we'd first need a Footski. I've campaigned earlier for a Footski and pointed out that it could be made for under $100. There are no movable parts. Lower shell, upper shell, the snakes, steering column, and accessories.Accessories. (missiles, flagpole)

But to pair off the Footski, we need a Rat King thanks to the TMNT Beat-em'up games. 

This will be a new version of the Rat King:

We start with Wave 11 Rat King I'm wave 10 colors (or Blue, which is a Tournament Fighters reference if we want to be super different. Come to think of it, Blue, Water... makes sense):

-vintage inspired knife (see snake belt.) But larger in size.

-vintage inspired Snake Belt. Unlike the Rattlesnake of the vintage line. This time it gets a Milksnake. (Non venomous and Eastern US is its natural habitat) the Belt would have some Cheeses hanging from it, a sheathe for the knife mentioned above. It should have a Quiver for the spears.

-3× spears. One for the Speargun and 2 spared for the Quiver.

-soda bandolier. (See Blue Rat King)

-3× Rats
