Each Foot Soldier was armed with akatana\/spear\/kama\/nunchaku\/fist dagger\/knife\/submachine gun\/etc. and dressed in the same garb: a black, blue, red, grey, or pink Tunic, black, blue, grey, purple, or pink head mask with eye protectors and some armor on the shoulders.\u00a0Leonardo\u00a0commentated that their skills were good, but no match for the\u00a0Turtles. The Foot Soldiers and the Turtles fought several more times until Saki was finally killed. Afterwards, the Foot fell into various splinter groups and were fighting over control of New York until Karai, the leader of the Foot inJapan, came back, killed each one of the 4\u00a0Foot Elites\u00a0and regained control of the Foot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Volume 4<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In Volume 4, the Foot gained a security contract with the\u00a0Utroms, who were visiting\u00a0Earth\u00a0on a peaceful diplomatic course. Although Karai had no problems with the Turtles and some, if not, most of the Foot apathetic to the matter, one Foot Soldier named\u00a0Cha Ocho, had a strong dislike for the Turtles. The Foot were also attacked by mysterious warriors at this time, in which\u00a0Leonardo\u00a0was helping the Foot. They also developed an interest in the occult and distributing books of dark arts.<\/p>\n<h2>1987 Series<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Shredder\u00a0utilized\u00a0robot\u00a0ninjas known as &#8220;Foot Soldiers&#8221; when he began his crime spree in\u00a0New York City. However, they are not very effective in combat, as they fall apart easily (<em>Turtle Tracks<\/em>). The Turtles fought them in all five episodes of the first season however as the\u00a01987s series\u00a0go on they are seen less and less because\u00a0Shredder\u00a0usually has to do things himself with\u00a0Bebop\u00a0andRocksteady. However in\u00a0Turtles Forever\u00a0there are hundreds to thousands of them fighting the 2003 Turtles and the 1988s Turtles underground after leaving the\u00a0Technodrome\u00a0with Bebop and Rocksteady leading them into battle. This version of the Foot do not talk at all nor do they use ninja weapons but they use guns. A few episodes show them using swords and other weapons as well, especially during the first two episodes of the first season. In Turtles Forever they had a self destruct sequence that distracted the Turtles while the 1988s Shredder escaped with the Technodrome and almost left Bebop and Rocksteady behind. The\u00a02003 Leonardo\u00a0is shocked to see that the 1988s Foot Soldiers are robots since the 2003 Foot Ninjas are humans. The 2003\u00a0Michelangelo\u00a0says the 1988s Foot Soldiers are exploding robots. The 2003\u00a0Raphael\u00a0takes pleasure in destroying all of the 1988s Foot Soldiers without his brothers help and was having fun doing it until the 1988s Donatello threw a large boulder down and crushed several of the Foot Soldiers and said strike making the 2003 Raphael angry. In the cartoon, The Shredder once considered making more intelligent Foot Soldiers, capable of learning and taking decisions by themselves. One Foot Soldier named\u00a0Alpha One\u00a0was the only Foot Soldier who could talk and was seen in Season Four, in the episode was called\u00a0The Foot Soldiers are Revolting. However, the idea was quickly abandoned when he rebelled against The Shredder. The Foot robot concept allowed the\u00a0Turtles\u00a0to destroy the Foot soldiers without any moral thoughts, allowing Leonardo and Raphael to use their weapons more offensively. Meanwhile the series could keep its younger audience and remain a &#8220;family show&#8221;. This principle also benefited the\u00a0video games.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>TMNT Adventures<\/h2>\n<p>The\u00a0Archie Comics\u00a0TMNT Adventures\u00a0comics features more advanced Foot Soldiers in addition to the basic model. In the comics, The Shredder also built a giant Foot Soldier, who fought against the\u00a0Warrior Dragon\u00a0in\u00a0New York City. The robot was destroyed when it crashed into the Statue of Liberty.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Movies<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIABAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAEALAAAAAABAAEAQAICTAEAOw%3D%3D\" alt=\"\" \/><\/h2>\n<p>The Shredder recruited many kids, mostly teens, from the streets and trained in the art of Ninjitsu. The kids made\u00a0crime sprees in the city, financing their growing crime empire. (<em>Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles<\/em>) After the Shredder was supposedly killed in the first film, the Foot Ninja were severely beaten into a small group by the ninja turtles. This version of the Foot are dressed in black outfits, have red bandanas on their heads and bug eyes. They usually fight with swords,\u00a0bo\u00a0staffs, axes, and other weapons but will fight the Turtles with their bare hands if they have too. They are lead into battle by\u00a0Tatsu\u00a0in the\u00a0first\u00a0and\u00a0second movie\u00a0while Shredder stayed behind. The Foot were victorious in their first battle with the Turtles but in the second battle they went down pretty easily. Foot Ninjas are good in battle but most of the time they&#8217;re clumsy and the Turtles appear to be having fun with them in battle. Michaelangelo was taking them down while talking to Donatello and doing his Wheel of Fortune on them at\u00a0April&#8217;s shop. When the Turtles first battle the Foot Michaelangelo says &#8220;I thought insurance sales men were pushy&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>2003 Series<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIABAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAEALAAAAAABAAEAQAICTAEAOw%3D%3D\" alt=\"\" \/><\/h2>\n<h3>Variants<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIABAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAEALAAAAAABAAEAQAICTAEAOw%3D%3D\" alt=\"\" \/><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Standard Foot Ninja<\/li>\n<li>Foot Tech Ninja<\/li>\n<li>Large Foot Ninja<\/li>\n<li>Foot Gestapo\/Foot Police\u00a0(&#8220;Same As It Never Was&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li>Foot Gunner Ninja\/Foot Mech<\/li>\n<li>Foot Sumo Ninja\u00a0(&#8220;Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Battle Nexus&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li>Scuba Foot Ninja<\/li>\n<li>Feudal Foot Ninja\u00a0(&#8220;Secret Origins, Part 1&#8221; and &#8220;Part 2&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li>Feudal Foot Captain (&#8220;Secret Origins, Part 1&#8221; and &#8220;Secret Origins, Part 2&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li>Large Feudal Foot Ninja (&#8220;<strong>Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Battle Nexus<\/strong>&#8220;)<\/li>\n<li>1960&#8217;s Foot Ninja (&#8220;A Tale of Master Yoshi&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li>Foot Ninja (Zombie)\u00a0(&#8220;The Lost Episodes&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;New&#8221; Foot Ninja (&#8220;Scion of the Shredder&#8221;-&#8220;Enter the Dragons&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;New&#8221; Foot Tech Ninja (&#8220;Scion of the Shredder&#8221; Forward )<\/li>\n<li>Cyber Foot Ninja\u00a0(&#8220;Back to the Sewer&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li>Foot Officer (&#8220;Back to the Sewer&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li>Foot Sentry (&#8220;Back to the Sewer&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li>Foot Tech (&#8220;Back to the Sewer&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li>Turtles Forever\u00a0Foot Ninja<\/li>\n<li>Turtles Forever Robot Foot Soldiers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Toys<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIABAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAEALAAAAAABAAEAQAICTAEAOw%3D%3D\" alt=\"\" \/><\/h2>\n<p>1988- Playmates<\/p>\n<p>Foot Soldier (1988 action figure)<\/p>\n<p>The original foot soldier figure was one of the harder to find out of the original releases.
