Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Monster, Turtle, and Wolf Transformations)

Daymon suggested posting the following clip from episode 39 of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon that aired from 2003-09. It shows several folks turning into demonic-looking monsters. (I had the video precisely cued, but embedding it made the clip start several seconds too early. Just watch and wait.)



This made me remember another transformation scene from that show. In the episode "Adventures in Turtle-Sitting," Donatello, the brainiest of the turtles, mutates into a mindless, hulking, turtle monster. I posted that clip several years ago, but since I've found a better quality video, I decided to delete the old post and place the video here:

The 2003 TMNT series concluded with the movie Turtles Forever, which included a call-back to the wolf mutant named Rahzar:
