Previously a Russian human arms dealer named Ivan Steranko, known by the nickname of Rocksteady was the leader of a street gang alongside his partner and right hand, Bebop, and worked for Shredder. They received the mission to stop the television reporter April O’Neil from reporting a series of crimes in the town. While being pursued by the gang members, she sought shelter in the sewers and ended up meeting and getting saved by the group of Ninja Turtles, that defeated the gang in a humiliating battle for Bebop, Rocksteady, and their allies. After their army also failed to defeat the Turtles, the alien Krang advised Shredder to transform his soldiers into mutants so they would have similar abilities to the Turtles. With a new plan, Shredder searched for volunteers for his experiments, and Bebop and Rocksteady offered themselves to undertake the procedure, even without being fully aware of what that would entail. After Shredder stole a rhino and a boar from the zoo, the thugs had their DNA mutated with the kidnapped animals, Bebop is transformed into an anthropomorphic mutant boar and Rocksteady into a rhino, both gaining the enormous strength of their animal counterpart but maintaining the limited intellect.

Created by David Wise and Peter Laird originally for the animated series in 1987, the characters' charisma guaranteed their permanent presence in the franchise. Their names curiously derive from two musical genres: bebop is a style of jazz, while rocksteady is a Jamaican music style, a precursor of reggae. Iron Studios also bring the statue "Bebop BDS - TMNT - Art Scale 1/10" to compose the duo of clumsy villains. Revealed on the Inside Iron Studios Day show of February on Iron Studios’ official YouTube channel, the statue is already available for Pre-Order.
