I'm going to borrow a term from a former Mattelian Diplomat, The Classicizer Machine. Use it to "turn other era figures" into Playmates OG line visual style, but with Ultimates! Articulation.
These will be for multiple characters;
Next Mutation is temporarily banned from the list:
Categories I'll use:
Mirage Comics
1987 Cartoon
1987 Era Videogames
Live Action movies Including the Bay Turdles. Of course, there will be separations via eras.
2003 Cartoon
2012 Cartoon
RISE of the TMNT (I know)
IDW Comics
Archie Comics
Unlike the Toy based rant, this one won't be monthly and there will be a December hiatus due to the final Advent Calendar and last Toycember... y'all know why. Yes, the intro has been copy/pasted.
Representing Mirage Comics:
(^)(^) of Time:
It's Renet. But she wouldn't be 100% Mirage Accurate, to avoid stepping on NECA's toes. It would be a Playmatesized Renet.
She needs larger than April V1 sized melons. No buts! She needs her old school cleavage as well.
Her leotard would be cerulean Blue with a gold belt made of golden pocket watches with a larger watch on the front. Two watches would be placed on her large breasts acting as "additional nipple protectors" and 3 smaller watches on her abdomen.
She would also have a neckpiece that holds her gold shoulderpads AND her red cape clips to with 2 pocket watch clips similar to Wingnut's.
Her gloves would be red with Gold Bracelets and Vambraces.
Her red Pirate boots would have golden shinguards with blue accents.
Hands: Usual hands.
Heads: (4)
"Blonde v-toy April"
"Hooded Blonde v-toy April"
Renet no hood
Renet hooded.
Accessories:
Timestress helmet for hooded heads:
Red Helmet with gold and blue elements
Soft goods red cape
Time Scepter (based on the Third Live Action Movie)
Chrono Shield A large Clock with removable clock hands
Hourdagger
Minuteknife
Shogun fauld
Why Renet?
Boobs... is what Nick Cade would say.
Justification for Walker and a Spector-esque saga is what the horrible fanfic writer in me would say.
Since Savanti Romero has Shogun elements, I added the fauld to Renet to complete the Shogun Time Trio, which also complements Walker. But seriously, the answer is Boobs.
Representing the 87 Cartoon is:
Caitlin:
The previous list had Zach and expanding the Not Teen Brigade. I'm just getting rid of the Hyumans to get to the nitty gritty, the freaks! Also, Nick is pointing a Stinger Missile launcher at me demanding Caitlin. Since I want to live, I am adding Zach's girl space friend.
Although, she looks more like his sister than his female friend.
Body sculpt:
The Classicizer might make Caitlin Older, due to old Playmates figures being roughly the same size. This is convenient because we need a 16+ Caitlin to be able to use the Party Wagon. So, a slightly taller Caitlin. But in Classic Playmates Fashion, we need to change her and not make her toon accurate:
Like Zach, she gets Kneepads and elbow pads. Cade, get your mind out of the gutter. I don't care you're a year younger than her! The knee pads would be Pink, while the elbow pads would be light grey. Her outfit wouldn't be Toon accurate. She has her light pink sweater, but she also wears a saturated pink vest. Her pants would be light grey with red Chuck Taylor styled shoes. She would require swappable feet at the slightly above the ankle cut
Hands:
Standard hands, lockpicking hands with sculpted picking tools, computer hacking hands
Heads: (4)
Neutral (ponytail)
Laughing (ponytail)
Neutral (loose)
Laughing (Loose)
Accessories:
April styled Turtle Communicator
Pink Skiing visor with pink lens. (Works on all heads to act as a "Mask")
Pair of stun batons
Zach's Backpack in maroon
Laptop
Alternate bare feet (reference to Don Turtelli)
Why her?
Again, Not Teen Brigade and Zach needs his boss. Also, I'm being threatened with Metal Gear Solid weaponry.
Representing the 1987 games is:
Hyperstone Heist Tatsu:
He's a lot easier to make than say, Fire Freak or sissyphus.
Heads:
Mask head (Basically a featureless head where you attach various masks)
Neutral
Angry
Body sculpt:Based on the Shredder body with new Torso and shoulders. He has the Shuriken spike launchers mounted on his forearms and a new plastic Gi (can be reused on Blade/Ninja Robo)
Hands:
Standard Shredder hands Plus kunai Spike holding hands
Accessories:
Rack Katana
Sewer Samurai Leo Kunai
War fan open and closed
4 Masks:
Oni
Tengu
Kitsune
Hannya mask
Why Tatsu?
Do I EVEN need to explain why? He's the one character that has been missing for early 40 years!
Representing the 90s movies:
Other than movie variants of April, Casey, Shredder, I don't see what else could be done...
This will be skipped and be replaced by media from Another Source... wait, the CGI movie counts as part of this continuity.
Nightwatcher:
Using the Classicizer would make the Nightwatcher Inaccurate to the source Material:
Heads:
Helmet
Unmasked Emo Raph with greasepaint around his eyes.
Body sculpt:
We start with a new Torso, Space Cadet Raph Shoulders and hands with new biceps and forearms.
We finish with Rappin Mike Legs and Space Cadet Raph lower legs and feet.
Accessories:
2 manriki
2 Sai
Cowabunga Carl oversized head in Michelangelo colors
Soft goods brown poncho for Leonardo
Why him?
Because I ran out of worthwhile Movie Characters (Keno, Perry, Tatsu and I cheated with Tatsu.)
Representing the 2014 Turdles from Bay:
Cyber Shredder:
I mentioned him when Making Sacks. Classicizer powers are go!
Take 2003 Shredder with new head and right hands.
Give him a new razor cape. Repaint him in a more silver Samurai inspired palette.
For accessories, clip on extra blades.
Rerelease as Vac Metal figure with new hard fauld.
Representing 2003:
Mutant Hun:
Once again, the Classicizer is in OVERDRIVE!!
We start with the Slash body:
Heads:
New Hun head gritting teeth and posable ponytail
New snarling head with posable ponytail
Body sculpt: Hun gets a new Slash belt with a sort of loincloth dangling on the front as a nod to his pants. His buckle reuses the Tokka Foot Clan insignia. He refuses the Tokka Shoulders and Biceps with new Spiked Forearms.
Hands: New Slash hands WITHOUT the blades.
Accessories:
Slash nunchaku
Head and spine of a battle damaged Foot Soldier (nod to Rahzar's weapon)
Saw blades shuriken (the plug into belt like Slash)
Why Mutant Hun?
I did say he was coming, so here he is.
Representing 2012 toon is:
Spyder-Bytez:
The Classicizer has a lot of work to do here, since part reuse is impossible.
Body Sculpt
His limbs would be similar to Slash's in both size and proportions, but insectoid in sculpt. He would also get the Spiked pads.
His body that should be roughly the same as slash. He should be slighty wider though.
Instead of swappable heads, he gets swappable mouth plates. Sculptwose, he'd be made less adorable and more creepy to fit with the i0s aesthetic.
Plates:
Gritting teeth
Smiling
Spitting
The spider legs atop his head get pseudoball joints.
Hands:
Standard hands
Accessories:
Webb and acid spit effects
Why him?
It's the worst possible Man-Spider. He has this 80s toy vibe despite being a 2012 character. Also, the list was already human heavy and I need to add some freaks, hence the no Bradford... I just happen to like This widdle fweak!
Representing Rise of the TMNT:
Meat Sweats:
A Mutant pig made from a former chef. The Classicizer has some heavy work to do.
He should be Bebop sized, because pigs...
Heads:
Grinning
About to eat with mouth wide open
Angry
His body, like I said should be Bebop sized but unlike Bebop, meat sweats doesn't hunch over.
He would require chunky legs to hold his rotund body and we can have a stand disguised as an overturned Mixing Bowl with spilled contents that plugs to any of his heels as an 80s style added support.
Hands:
The usual hands
Tendrils of various sizes to assimilate powers.
Accessories:
Tenderizer
Chef's Cleaver (reuse Pizzaface's)
Chopping board shield
Why Him?
I could make an alliance of evil cooks between Pizzaface, him, a brand new Chinese cook, and a brand new Puerto Rican cook.
Representing IDW:
Null:
While the Archie Null is more Toyetic, I'm choosing IDW's Null.
For the Toy, I'll take elements from the Archie Null and apply them to the IDW one to make Horny Gender bent Red Lex Luthor more exciting.
Heads:
Neutral
Angry
Full Demon mode with Long horns.
Body sculpt:
Brand new body sculpt with ar.s from. Inja April and forearms from Vanilla April.
Her Torso would sport an ancient looking Battle armor similar to Karai's, but showong more cleavage. From the waist down she sports a business pantsuit and high heels all in black. Her back has an interchangeable tab to plug in wings.
Hands:
Usual hands
Accessories:
Flaming sword with removable flame effect
Blaster
Wings
Soft goods "button shirt" in grey that can be opened.
Soft goods black blazer
Why Null?
Honestly, I've no idea. It just made sense somehow. I know there are other Mutants like Sally Pride, Lita, Sheena, etc. But Null made sense.
Representing Archie Comics:
Null:
This Null has a penis and is flesh colored. The other Null has a vagina and is red colored.
The Classicizer had some work:
Heads:
Neutral
Grinning
Cigar head
Full long horned head
Body sculpt:
We start with a Thundercat styled body for Null.
He would have holes on his back for the wings.
Removable suit overlay with swappable arms:
Suit arms and bare arms.
Hands
Usual hands, Cigar holding hand
Accessories:
Slip on suit
Alternate suit arms
Wings
Blaster
Flaming sword
Why Null?
We have the IDW one, why bother with the Archie One? Same reason I want both white and Black Baxters or white and black Aprils.
Also, the list is a bit girl heavy and adding a nearly 10 inch Vulvana would get me killed.
