Accessories

The weapons have a fantastical twist to them, matching the Greyskull aesthetic while still staying true to the ninja origins of Shredder. crossbow, in particular, feels like a nod to both He-Man’s Power Sword and Shredder’s ruthless combat style.

Crossover Appeal

Shredder’s new look fits seamlessly into the world of Greyskull, while still being instantly recognizable as the Turtles’ greatest foe.
