The first ever. Commissioned by Michael Frederik Sorensen aka KaptainMyke, this one-of-a-kind concept prototype was first spotted by Michael in the 1994 Playmates Toy catalog. I did all the research on this prototype: This giant mechanized samurai piloted by a mini mutant was going to have motorized walking action, lights and sounds. I had to include everything because I wanted to make him as accurate as possible. There where photos of some original prototype parts like the chestplate and back shell. I tried to copy those the best as possible. Michael came up with the idea and color scheme of the box. I used a 11 inch unbranded robot as a base and used some 11 inch Nick Turtles Michey parts like the head and shell. Cannibalised lots of robot toys for some of the other parts and sculpted some myself. Used gold, metallic purple and black acrylic spray-paint for the figure and some blue dry-brushed acrylic paint for the gun. The box I designed and built from scratch using the artwork from the 1994 Playmates Toy catalog. The finished 12 inch figure has walking action, moving head, lights, sounds, grabbing hand, swivel guns and a mini Raphael pilot who can be stored in the back shell which also serves as the cockpit.
