Tokka and '''Rahzar''' are two fictional ''. The design of Tokka in the movie was inspired by the drawings of comic book artist and writer '', among numerous articles and books on comics and horror films. FILM When The Shredder found out that the substance that mutated the Turtles had been created by TGRI (Techno-Global Research Industries), he sent his Foot Soldiers to take the head TGRI scientist, Dr. Jordan Perry, hostage and force him to create more mutagen so he could create his own mutants for the Foot. Dr. Perry created three mutagen canisters; Shredder used two to create Tokka and Rahzar, by mutating an Alligator Snapping Turtle and a Wolf , respectively. Both creatures were kidnapped from the Bronx Zoo. Shredder's intent was to wreck havoc on the city and to create a trap for the Turtles. However, the TGRI scientist had secretly altered the mutagen, and as a result, these two mutants had the intelligence of human infants. After Saki ordered the monsters to face him and attack them in order to show his dominance over them, the mutants immediately adopted Shredder as their surrogate mother. Instead of calling him "master"... they yelled out, "Mama!". They rushed to hug him. Confused and angered, Shredder ordered them to be destroyed. Perry had sympathy for the mutants and showed Saki their total obedience to him and that they followed his every direction since he was their "Mother". Their brute strength would prove quite a foil to the Turtles. Now convinced of their power, Shredder agreed to keep the creatures and proceeded to twist them for his evil purposes. for the TMNT II movie.]] Despite their low intelligence, the two mutants' incredible physical strength made them more than a match for the Turtles. On their first encounter at Shredder and , Dr. Perry then prepared an anti-mutagen to de-mutate Tokka and Rahzar, which had to be ingested. from the TMNT II movie.]] During their second encounter at the construction site, amidst a distraction the Leonardo and Michelangelo tricked Tokka and Rahzar into eating the antidote (they froze the concoction into ice cubes and then hid them in a box donuts, which they then offered to the two mutants as the "ritual of the tradional pre-fight donut"). Rahzar and Tokka devoured the donuts with continued coaxing from the Turtles. Rahzar accidentally crushed one of the donuts in his claw and discovered the anti-mutagen cube. Enraged...Tokka and Rahzar smashed Michelangelo through a wall and into the Dockside Club interrupting a crowded dance concert by Vanilla Ice . The creatures kept getting sour looks from time to time during their rampage and let out montserous belches due to the effects of the anti-mutagen. As the final showdown commenced at the club; Leo and Raph were fending off Rahzar and Tokka's snapping attacks. Donatello told Dr.Perry about the mutants' belching. Perry informed them that the burping was slowing the anti-mutagen. Carbon dioxide was needed to speed up the demutation. Some fire extinguishers the two scientists disovered to their side provided them an idea. On cue...the brothers rushed and bashed into the two beasts knocking them flat on their backs. Then they shoved fire extinguishers Don had retrieved into the creatures' mouths to keep them from burping the carbon dioxide. This was the crucial part of the antidote to demutate the monsters. Finally, the antidote took effect and the two mutants returned to their harmless animal forms. What happened to them after that is unknown. Rahzar was played by Mark Ginther and Tokka was played by Kurt Bryant . They were both voice-acted by Frank Welker . 1987 CARTOON SERIES Tokka and Rahzar only appeared once in the 1987 Cartoon Series . In 1993 , they were featured in the season 7 episode ''Dirk Savage: Mutant Hunter''. They were out-of-control mutants that the Turtles were trying to stop, and who were captured by Dirk Savage. The animated versions were more intelligent and more eloquent, particularly Rahzar. Their look in the cartoon was very much like that of their action figures, made two years prior to their toon appearance. In this episode, their names were spelled ''Toka'' and ''Razar''. GAMES .]] Although the old TMNT Videogames are based on the 1987 cartoon version of the franchise, and the last game came out in 1991 , two years before Tokka and Rahzar appeared on that show, the two mutants are nonetheless part of three of the games. They are in both versions of . In the original arcade version, they are the bosses of the pirate ship level, while in the Super NES version, they have been moved to the Technodrome level. They are paired together as a Double-boss . They can team up in their attacks; for example, one of their moves involves Tokka withdrawing into his shell and Rahzar hoping on top and riding around the screen chaotically like a skateboard. Their low intelligence from the movie is also included in the game: they will often accidentally hit each other instead of the player, and will take damage for it. Just like in the movie, when the player defeats them in the game, they de-mutate to normal animals. Also, in the game, their names have the spelling of the movie, not the later spelling of the TV show. They also made an appearance in the . Here you must fight them as separate bosses, Rahzar first in the Technodrome and Tokka later at the end of the rooftop level. EXTERNAL LINKS
