Blast from the Past #118: Design for evil mutant's vehicle -- "Hover Trike"

This is a toy design I proposed to Playmates back in the late 1980's, I believe.



Looking closely at it, it's interesting that I not only used Rocksteady as the pilot but garbed him in some kind of Samurai-type armor. -- PL

  2. Could this be the prototype for those villainous foot ski's they used i n the show?

    Seeing as how these could have been used on land instead of the module for transportation, they would have been a whole lot more usefull :)

  3. -->> Neil .. they did develop a toy similar to this effect.

    The Psycho Cycle or something. I think they reused the mold for a few different ' Hovering Bike ' Toys for both the Foot and the Turtles.

  4. I think one issue is that the old line had little articulation, so old Rocky might not have fit on the bike.
