Dogpound is a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles minifigure released in 2013. He is Chris Bradford's mutated form.
Description[edit | edit source]
Dogpound's torso-head combination piece is a new mould released exclusively for this figure. His facial area is white with red eyes, a black nose, and yellowed teeth. On top of his head, Dogpound has two ears and spikes running down his back. On the bottom, backside of the piece, there is a curly tail that attaches to his back. Dogpound has a white stomach with a white, sixpack of muscles. On each side of the piece are knobs sticking out that the arms attach to. His left arm is very large and spiky. It is mostly brown, but the top and bottom of the piece as well as his fingers are white. Dogpound's right arm has the same colour scheme as his left arm but is significantly smaller and without spikes. His hips are black and his legs are red with a chain mail loincloth and metallic kneepads.
Background[edit | edit source]
Chris Bradford (or the Dark Ninja) was a martial arts master, and a world-famous celebrity. He had dojos around the world where people could train in various forms of martial arts. In the TMNT episode "New Friend, Old Enemy", Michelangelo attempts to make friends with him using social networking. Little does he know that Bradford is a member of the Foot Clan and is Shredder's star pupil. In the episode "The Gauntlet", the Kraang try to set off a mutagen bomb in New York City, and the turtles stop them, but Bradford and Xever arrive to try and kill them. When they are cornered, Bradford, who knows he has no escape, stabs the bomb in an attempt to take the turtles down with him. Instead, the stream of mutagen spurting from the bomb misses the turtles and hits Bradford and Xever, mutating them into Dogpound and Fishface. He was given the name "Dogpound" by Michelangelo, who, when his brothers questioned him, replied, "Well he's a dog, and he pounded us..." The main reason he mutated into a dog was because of a bite from Shredder's dog Hachiko.
Notes[edit | edit source]
- Michelangelo named him "Dogpound" because he's a dog, and he pounded the Turtles.
