- In this video, we delve into the character of Baxter Stockman in the Fred Wolf cartoon's version, specifically his transformation into "The Fly." Baxter was an inventor who was struggling to make a living selling his own creations while his brother was using his intelligence for criminal purposes. However, everything changed when he crossed paths with the infamous villain, Shredder. Baxter's encounter with the Shredder resulted in him losing his dignity, assets, and even his humanity. Join us as we explore how this once brilliant inventor became "The Fly" and the tragic story behind his transformation.

Thanks for watching!
I like the 1987 fly, but I seen 2012 one, its more advance but I grew up with original one. I thought it was cruel of writers to make donatello destory the z computer. And leave Baxter in limbo for rest of series, alone, imagine if that was you? You'll go crazy in soitary prison thing too with no one to talk too, but its not real, I was a kid back in 1993-94 when I seen it. I'm 43 now..I remember age 17 I was excited to see shredder and krang again at middle last season 10. But I didn't knew it was end of TMNTs until last episode where donatello had to go to wrecked technodrome to get krangs robot body just to stop dregg, lol
Also for the wasp April there is a kinda bad movie named "Wasp Woman" which had also a remake during the 90s just like "The Fly". In my eyes " Wasp Woman" was just a bad ripped of "The Fly".
I never knew that the original plan was for Baxter to become an ally to the Turtles! That does make sense because he is portrayed as a fairly sympathetic character in that first storyline. Great video as always!
Yeah, I recently rewatched S01 and he seems like a very sympathetic character. I was surprised when he was an out and out bad guy in S02.
@@patrickdoherty4527I don’t think Eastman and Laird approved of that idea
I would've liked for him to eventually become an ally to the TMNT. It's unfortunate that Eastman and Laird wouldn't approve it.
@@patrickdoherty4527 The whole "gone insane because he was sent to the mental asylum" story arc was added later when it was decided he won't be an ally to the Turtles
This is definitely my favorite version of Baxter Stockman, and the vintage toy is in my top five.
I've always felt bad for Baxter, I do kinda wish we saw that "father figure" version of him
Me too! He's actually one of the few villains that I feel sorry for.
In IDW, maybe you could say he was split in two figures; both the black sort of "neutral" alignment and the white "good" in Harold Lillja.
For most Turtle fans from the 80's this was the first version of Baxter Stockman. I was freaked out when i saw Baxter turn in to a fly against his wil.
80’s Baxter Stockman: Oh no! I turned into a fly!
2000’s Baxter Stockman: Oh God, he’s going to tear out my other eye! Noooo!
I get what you're implying. The 80s Baxter got off easy compared to the 2000s Baxter. Still, Baxter's treatment in the 80s series has nonetheless sparked sh-t tons of controversy among fans who felt is was beyond unwarranted
@@justinratcliffe947idk man becoming a fly losing your mind and being trapped in limbo sounds pretty bad to me. At least 2000s Baxter kept his sanity
@@DJPrimeAmvsyou must’ve not seen the episode Insane in the Membrane then because 03 stockman was not at all sane. It is a banned episode tho so that’s probably why you missed it
@@Albino_Basilisk no, I remember that episode, I just don't count it
And 2012 was like yezz I'm a flyzz
"5:16 A contraption that would have sent their molecules one second forward in time, or whatever." Well put.
Excuse me, I’m looking for April O’Neil.
I-I’m a little… busy right now.
Oh, sorry. I’ll take you instead.
Oh, no! No not again!
😂😂😂😂
Thanks for the shout out!!! I never get stuff like this! It’s so nice for me and my comments to be appreciated! Thank you, Turtle Nexus for the shout out and for all your videos!!!
You have a lot of time on your hands
@@gameztopcollectibles It’s just nice to get shout outs. What do you want me to say?
I love the series, but I always felt the writers did Baxter wrong. I would have liked to see his character arc eventually switching sides to the turtles.
I would have really liked that idea, too.
I always though it was weird that the heroes just stole things from him.
Yeah, I always thought that was a bit shitty of them to do
Baxter, your experiments are electrifying!
New subscriber!! Thank you for all your videos!!! Such great memories.
Thanks for the video!
I'll admit, I was disappointed they canceled the third TMNT with Megan Fox. It was looking to see them transform Baxter into The Fly.
omg that would have been epic
Those movies were garbage.
@@Center-For-I.E.D.Mismanagement shut up
Those two movies were disappointments
I have a feeling they were probably going to go the cyborg approach with Tyler Perry Baxter Stockman.
Goldbloom eat your heart out..
😂
Glad I'm not the only one who thinks Goldblum not being cast as an interpretation of Baxter Stockman was a missed opportunity. 😆
(Edit: fixed some typos)
Goldblum?
Like the dude from jurassic park or world??
@@ADag-dt4tx …..The guy from Thor Ragnarok..
I knew it was going to be Baxter Stockman!!!
Wow I never knew that Baxter Stockman was going to be their ally as he sorta was in the IDW comics temporally when he became mayor, I think this was a missed opportunity for him appear in the episode Night of the Rouges and see him interact with his twin brother, you definitely need to do a video on the 2003 Baxter Stockman as Cyborg and also the 1987 Leatherhead and Rat king especially that Vietnam veteran theory.
I think there´s a mistake in your video at 3:42 when you talk about the turtle blimp. The turtle blimp was born when donatello changed the flying car of the neutrins in the episode 5..
Great video
That scenes with Vuen and Baxkster was so funny ❤😂
It's funny how in the last live action movie he looked like Professor Clump... who had a transformation that at least from an appearance standpoint was positive.. yet closer to Baxter's Comic Personality.
Dr Chaplin was inspired by Fly Stockman?!?! No way!!! Wow!!!
Here’s a comment hoping I get a shout out someday lol. Love your videos dude, I just found your channel. 😊
What shocked me was how Murderous the Fred Wolf show Shredder and Krang actually were , in pilot episodes Shredder sent foot to kill Baxter, then about a season later Krang immediately decided to disintegrate Baxter , ,krang is a brainiac and all he has around him to talk to are mindless footbots and dumb dumb Stone Warriors , a thinker usually prefers educated minds to talk with , , , ,given situation , the logic was badly written , , ,thats hard to say because i love that series MORE than any since , ,it had more heart clever humor 😦😦🤔😂
krang isn't a thinker he was a warlord and baxter was clearly isn't going to serve him so had to get rid of him
@@frankspick7544 Krang admits to being a scientist before he throws Baxter into disintegrater unit , , as scientist they could've compared notes collaborated made something far more fierce than Mousers , ,just bad writing someone was fan of Jeff Goldblum FLY movies and wanted a new mutant , , ,toyline immediately accepted it , hell they never bothered to make Normal Baxter toy , , wich kinda shocked me , , ,🤔😋😋
Both of baxter Stockman
White
Or
Black person are both good roles
He must have got out of limbo at some point if he is on shredder's revenge.
Great Man!
Ah, so maybe Professor Perry in Secret of the Ooze filled Baxter’s abandoned role as their scientist ally? When I was a kid, I always thought Professor Perry was a kind incarnation of Baxter.
Because Prof. Perry was supposed to be an Utrom.
@@TheTurtleNexus
Yeah, I heard they had to scrap that idea because the kids would think he was Krang. But him being a Utrom never made sense to me. It must have been part of a very early draft of the script.
@@anton1990 At the time it made a lot of sense, because the movie was going to adapt the TCRI story and was titled "Secret of the ooze". And in the comics Baxter only made one appearance up to that point, so for the turtles creators' it was OK. But yeah, around the same time, the cartoon exploded, and Baxter found a second life.
@@TheTurtleNexus
Oh yeah, I just wonder where they would’ve fit the Utrom revelation scene into the story. At the very end?
Didn’t they mention that the TCRI/TGRI building disappeared as well?
@@anton1990 I would have to check the pitch again :p
Despite using tts you have so much personality
Is this narrator the Honest Epic Voice Guy?
I think it’s AI generated to mimic his voice
@@navalta_gfx that's sad.. Hoped was really him and not a robotic effect
It's text to speech, but it is his actual voice being used (it's licensed through Descript). There's s link in the description to the software that explains how it works.
I only used this option because I had a very strict budget, but that's sorted now.
When we getting an episode in the Uncanny Trio(Nocturno especially who originally was to get a toy with Hallo Cat as his little buddy but it was called Scratch)
Krang throws Baxter Stockman into a disintegrator unit because he has no use for him. It malfunctions, merging Stockman with a housefly that had accidentally entered the chamber with him and turning him into a mutant.
New tmnt channel thank you UA-cam algorithm
1:14 What is the name of the magazine or comic that talks about that information about the Mirage turtles and the 87 series, and has information about April and her change?
That's Comics Scene.
The landlord of the flies would make better sense if it was premiered after Revenge of the fly when you think about it.
Concept
What if Baxter Stockman create a mouser army out of 70s, 80s & 90s mecha anime, zoids, adeptus titanicus, mechagodzilla 1974, Star Wars separatist, terminator models, bionicle, null sector & zeon mobile suits?
He would no be baxter anymore
9:05 Raph claims that Baxter is 5 1/2 feet tall.... I feel like he is portrayed as significantly shorter than that
Maybe as a fly, he gained some height. He was five-foot-two before the mutation and weighed 135 pounds.
What Series and Episode was this please? When Baxter was transformed? Thank you!!!
Season 2, "Enter the Fly".
I want Peter Laird to conteniu TMNT
Great summary of Baxter's character! Is this narrated by an AI voice?
It's not a synthetic voice. But there is software (and a contract) involved.
Who would win in a fight… Baxter stockman with his mousers or the rat king and his hoard of rats
Mousers have a max capacity of rats they can trap, so Rat King would eventually win.
@@TheTurtleNexus Sort feel like Baxter should be able to make something more to trap them but considering his degrading inteligence that feels right.
@@TheTurtleNexus I thought they just bit through rats?
@@lahaluke they kill them but they also store their bodies.
@@TheTurtleNexus yeah if this 1987 version of the Rat king is a war veteran
Cool
You forgot to mention the fact that he died and how it happened in this show.
?
0:15 yep not baxter stockman from the comics
Cool the turtles knew how to drive a van and eventually became the Turtle van? Also they drove around illegally?
Everything about them was illegal. However, because they were technically not humans, it would be hard to apply the same laws to them.
@@TheTurtleNexus Haha true. Imagine the cops pulling them over and don't know what to do. 😂
It just like the fly 🪰.
That super fly was a real Baxter.
Oh
pinky mcfingers.
😆
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💯💯💯
Can you do rat king please
It may take a while, but I will do videos on all the Rat Kings (so far I covered the original and the Archie ones).
A thing about rats
Nice ai voice
No
His brother? Baxter had no brother
He does in this version.
:0
shx1t.
Put Batman in the role of the turtles and it’s let make you human again Baxter, but alas, it’s we ain’t turning you human you fly freak, off to dimension x forever hahahah let’s eat some pizza
ajax
Horrible
Where’s all the race swapping outrage?? Everything is woke, right? Lol
