GI Joe Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Ripper Bebop In Hand Images

Cowabunga! And yo Joe! Two of the greatest franchises of the 1980s continue to collide and we could not be more excited about it. The GI Joe x Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover figures are starting to hit Target store shelves, and I rushed out to grab Ripper Bebop the moment I spotted him on the pegs! This mashup line takes our favorite TMNT villains and gives them the GI Joe Dreadnok treatment, and the results are so much fun. Bebop reimagined as a Dreadnok called Ripper Bebop is such a really cool concept, blending that punk rock biker gang energy with everyone’s favorite mutant warthog. I always loved Bebop growing up and seeing him get the GI Joe treatment just hits different. So let’s take a look at GI Joe Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Ripper Bebop with our in hand images!

The card art on this packaging is a blast, showing Ripper Bebop tearing through a jungle scene with a massive gatling-style weapon, his purple mohawk and red visor popping against the lush green environment. I like how the artwork leans hard into the Dreadnok aesthetic, with the character illustration capturing that unhinged mercenary energy the crossover is going for.

Here’s a closer look at the back of Ripper Bebop’s packaging, which lays out the full crossover roster in a grid of illustrated portraits framed by green energy bursts. The file card section at the bottom is a nice throwback, done in that classic tan dossier style with a small character illustration and a bio that weaves together the TMNT and G.I. Joe mythologies, listing his included accessories as Claws of Life and a Machete.

Bebop comes loaded with just two accessories, which is that massive silver Claws of Life tool and a gray machete, both fitting right in with the Dreadnok crossover theme.

You can see how the silver nose ring and those white tusks curling out from his jaw give Bebop’s face so much personality, paired with that red visor sculpted with individual slotted lines. The silver studded wristbands and the grenade sculpted onto his chest strap are the kind of small details that reward you for looking closer, and those black combat boots with heavy treads finish off the blue cargo pants nicely.

Here’s a closer look at the spiked shell on Bebop’s back, which is sculpted in olive green with gunmetal gray spikes jutting out at different angles. The silver studded belt wrapped around his waist adds another layer of punk hardware, and you can catch a nice contrast between the sculpted skin texture on his arms and the smooth blue of those cargo pants.

From this side angle, the hexagonal pattern sculpted into Bebop’s shell has a great leathery, reptilian quality to it, and those gunmetal spikes look even more aggressive poking out past his purple mohawk. The silver chain bracelet on his wrist is a nice touch I hadn’t fully appreciated until now, sitting just above those oversized, meaty fists.

Here’s a look at the full back view of Bebop, and one thing I noticed right away is how the black harness straps have a textured leather-like grain sculpted into them, complete with a molded buckle closure between the shoulder blades. A small gray grenade or explosive device is tucked into the belt line on his right hip, and the purple topknot tied with what appears to be bone or tusk-like clasps adds a savage finishing touch to the back of his head.

Armed with the machete, Bebop looks fantastic up close, and you can really appreciate the tattered, frayed edges sculpted into the bottom hem of his olive vest where it meets the waistline. The blue cargo pants have recessed rectangular knee pad details and segmented black straps wrapped around the thighs that I hadn’t noticed in earlier shots, adding a militaristic layer to his punk aesthetic.

I like how the tattered olive green vest sits over his torso with a red Cobra insignia peeking through, while the purple mohawk and matching beard bring all that classic Bebop flavor.

A close-up reveals just how gnarly the Claws of Life accessory really is, with its heavy hammer-like head and thick cylindrical grip sculpted in a matte gunmetal gray. The spiked kneepad on Bebop’s shoulder catches the eye here too, its olive green surface dotted with silver conical studs that match the brutal aesthetic of his wristband hardware.

Here’s a closer look at the spiked turtle shell, and something I appreciate here is the subtle green-to-yellow color shift across the shell’s surface, giving it an organic, almost weathered look that contrasts nicely with the cold metallic sheen of those protruding spikes. The bone through Bebop’s nose and that grimacing expression with bared white teeth sell the feral Dreadnok vibe perfectly from this angle.

A detail that stands out to me is the red Cobra insignia printed across Bebop’s belly, its clean lines and symmetrical design sitting perfectly against the warm skin tone of his torso. The sculpted knife tucked into the right side of his vest has a distinct gray handle with molded rivets, and the grenade hanging from the chest strap features individual segmented grooves that give it real weight.

Outfitted with a light blue jacket over his yellow plastron, Michelangelo stands alongside Bebop here, and that little white sailor cap perched on his head is such a fun nod to the crossover’s mashup spirit. His nunchucks feature actual silver metal chains connecting the handles, and the “M” belt buckle in gunmetal gray is a clean little detail that ties the whole sailor-meets-ninja look together.

Here’s a closer look at the full TMNT x G.I. Joe lineup staged together, and it really sells the scope of this crossover. The Turtle-themed VAMP jeep in military green with yellow roll cage, green hubcaps, and a mounted turret pairs perfectly with that helicopter overhead, while figures like Leonardo, Michelangelo, Bebop, Slash, and the rest spread across the terrain show just how deep this mashup goes across both factions.

Leonardo is outfitted in full black tactical gear with blue accents, from the blue bandana and chest harness down to the blue knee pads and belt buckle bearing his initial. The crossover ninja-commando look works surprisingly well, with the black boots and armored plating giving the sculpt a completely different vibe from any Leo you’ve seen before. Bebop towers next to him, and you can see how the Cobra insignia stamped across his chest really sells the crossover concept. His purple hair, red visor, and those spiked olive-green shoulder pads bring all the classic Bebop flavor while the teal military pants and black combat boots pull him firmly into G.I. Joe territory.

Michelangelo looks like he’s having the time of his life in this mashup, sporting a teal sailor-style top with a yellow chest panel, a white sailor cap, and his signature orange mask and knee pads. The kusarigama chain weapon with a shuriken dangling from the end is a great touch, blending ninja weaponry with that nautical G.I. Joe flavor. Shredder gets a full Cobra Commander-inspired makeover here, with a blue tunic, red cape, and his classic silver helmet now sitting over what looks like a blue Cobra-style hood. You can see how the Cobra flame emblem on his belt buckle and the silver claw gauntlets on his boots tie the whole villain crossover together, and that katana is the one detail keeping him firmly rooted in TMNT territory.

Donatello is loaded up here, with a silver claw-grip weapon, a bo staff, and what looks like a backpack-mounted device with tubes running along his shell. His purple bandana, purple belt and wraps, teal shin guards, and that “D” buckle keep his identity clear while the military-grade loadout pushes him into full commando territory. I’m really digging Krang’s crossover look, with that exposed brain module framed in a silver and green chassis while a massive double-headed battle axe and a spiked silver flail give him serious heavy-hitter energy. The red snake motif coiling around his shoulders and torso is a killer nod to Cobra, and the silver spiked helmet completes the fusion beautifully.

Slash looks absolutely menacing in his Storm Shadow-inspired white gi, with the Cobra insignia stamped on the chest and magenta shoulder armor peeking out from under the fabric. His belt is loaded with sculpted gear and a purple buckle bearing a lightning bolt, while those yellow-green accents on his knuckles and toes pop against the teal skin and cream-colored outfit.

Raphael clashes with Rocksteady here, and I like how Raph’s sai are tucked into action while he wields that massive chainsaw, the teeth sculpted individually along the entire blade. Rocksteady’s tan vest with green ammo bandolier slung across the chest, teal jeans with a skull-and-crossbones belt buckle, and those goggles pushed up on his rhino horn make for a perfect punk-mercenary fusion, with a circular saw blade weapon adding to his arsenal.

Raphael’s crossover design goes full rugged here, with a brown leather-style vest, black cowboy hat, and what looks like an oversized ooze canister strapped to his back alongside a massive green gatling-style weapon. The Turtle Fly Copter behind him is covered in turtle shell-patterned hexagonal plating across the fuselage, with red-tipped rotor blades, underslung missiles with red warheads, and a “24” marking on the nose that sits alongside the TMNT emblem.

Scarlett’s crossover look keeps her signature red hair and yellow jumpsuit intact, with green tactical straps, brown leather holsters, and white boots grounding her firmly in Joe territory. The AWE Shell Striker beside her is packed with detail, from the “STINK” label on the turret-mounted missile to the orange pennant flag, flexible wire antennae, and a set of yellow air horns mounted low on the front bumper.
