Shredder is a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles minifigure first released in 2013.
Description
Shredder's helmet is metallic silver and has three horns on the top that are connected to a ridge that runs above his eye slot. The bottom of his eye slot has a metal veil that hides his mouth. His head has an angry expression with one of his eyes totally white. Half of his head is heavily scarred and disfigured. Shredder wears silver, metal pauldrons that have three blades on each side the same pieces are used for weapons by Setam in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. He also has a dark blue cape that sits on his pauldrons.
Background
The Shredder, formerly known as Oroku Saki, is the eternal and main adversary of Splinter and the turtles. He is the undisputed leader of the foot clan consisting of Foot Soldiers, Dogpound, and Fishface. He is a master of ninjitsu, surpassing the turtles and being equaled only by Splinter. He has a daughter named Karai, who disagrees with her father and rebels against him, even striking up a romantic intrest in Leonardo.
Long ago, Shredder was known as Oroku Saki and was good friends with Hamato Yoshi (also known as Splinter). However, both men fell in love with the same woman, Tang Shen, which sparked a bitter rivalry between them. Eventually Tang Shen married Yoshi and gave birth to his daughter Miwa. One night, Saki, mad with jealousy and hatred, attacked Yoshi in his home intending to kill him. Saki slashed a house onto Yoshi killing his wife and leaving Saki badly wounded. This infuriated Saki to the point of taking away Splinter's daughter Miwa as punishment, which left Splinter isolated.
At some point, Saki became known as Shredder who has now organized a large squad of soldiers in Tokyo, Japan. Among his diciples are Karai, Bradford, and Xever. Upon realizing that Splinter had survived the fight fifteen years ago, Shredder deploys his army to travel to America with intent to kill Splinter once and for all.
