Hasbro has announced three more action figures from the 6″ Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles X Power Rangers line. This news delivers the last of the four turtles and their greatest villains: Red Ranger Raph, Green Ranger Shredder, and a Foot Soldier Tommy round this latest release.
First up is the two-pack of Foot Soldier Tommy and Red Ranger Raphael. It seems a little odd to throw Tommy, the Green Ranger, in as a member of the Foot Clan. This is made even stranger with the other figure that was recently announced.
Tommy infiltrates the Foot Clan and, when the teens from Angel Grove are cut off from their powers, Raphael uses Jason’s morpher to become a new Red Ranger.
Of course, Raph would be the Red Ranger. That was a given. Pink would have worked, too. Imagine Raphael overcoming being put in the most feminine color while being the most fierce of the four brothers. Oh, the narrative possibilities would have been endless with that struggle.
Did you expect The Shredder to appear as a version of one of the Power Rangers’ villains? Me, too. However, Chrome Dome makes his debut in this series as the Green Ranger. Why? I don’t know… He does look pretty cool, though.
Shredder uses the power of the Tommy’s coin and morphs into a twisted, evil version of the Green Ranger.
The Green Ranger’s outfit suits Shredder well. This design of the prickly villain looks reminiscent of the 2003 TMNT series. He would also make for an awesome cosplay costume.
I was expecting Shredder to be Rita Repulsa, and I am still holding out that Kraang will be morphed with Lord Zedd. It makes sense. He’s got an exposed brain, and Kraan is a talking brain. What are your thoughts on what other TMNT characters should appear as members of the Power Rangers franchise? Let us know in the comments.
