Metalhead appears in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time as the boss of the second level, "Alleycat Blues". He has extending punch and kick attacks, as well as a machine gun in his chest.

This version was slightly redesigned for the remake, Turtles in Time Re-Shelled; this version of Metalhead was voiced by Wayne Grayson.

Metalhead is a playable character in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Madness.

In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge Metalhead appears as the boss of Episode 10: A Few Screws Loose. Here he is reprogrammed by Shredder to fight the Turtles. After his defeat he will revert back to being the Turtles ally.

Trivia

• As the Super NES version of Turtles in Time changed all of the boss' banter to text, Metalhead's insult is misspelled "slimballs" here.
• The instruction manual of the Super NES version erroneously refers to Metalhead as Mechaturtle, a boss from the first video game who is similar to Metalhead, as both are robotic versions of the Turtles. His name is correct in the game proper, however.
