voiced Shredder in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987)
"Tonight I Dine On Turtle Soup"
Oroku Saki, a student of The Foot, soon assumed control of the Ninja clan after framing Hamato Yoshi for attempted murder on their master teacher. Saki transformed The Foot into an army of crime and assumed the identity of the armoured Shredder.
Eventually stumbling on Krang, an alien warlord banished from his home dimension, Saki attempted to increase his ranks by depositing mutagen into the sewers, hoping to create mutants to do his bidding. He succeded, but unknowingly, he gave birth to the TMNT, and transformed his hated enemy Yoshi into a Rat/Human hybrid, now calling himself Splinter.
After refusing to join Saki's forces, the TMNT and Yoshi fought back against The Shredder, banishing him and his Dimension X allies from Earth and from their sight time and again, each time Shredder reemerging to gain revenge and the upper hand, a motivation that is hampered only by his bungling henchmen, and his underestimation of the Turtles and their allies. |
