“ | This joker won last year's contest. But I'm not afraid. I just need to get past his stupid shield and he's finished | „ |
~ Needles referring to Minion |
“ | Terrible things can happen when a man comes to grips with his dark side. Marcus has spent his life running from his nightmares. Needles has devoted his life to making his nightmares come true. When Marcus surrenders to Needles the whole is greater than the sum of the parts, Marcus' rational mind and Needles' fevered insanity descend into a vortex of sinister chaos. The only possible outcome is the total annihilation of anything that stands in their path | „ |

“ | You know, Calypso, I've been looking at this face for a long time. I think it's time for a change. We've been doing this a long time, haven't we? You hold the Twisted Metal, I kill and destroy for you. I make a wish, and you continue to sit on your throne surrounded by your guards and women. I think you've had enough fun for awhile | „ |
Credits to the Twisted Metal wiki for the Summary
Known as the most twisted character in Twisted Metal (which is saying something), he is the very embodiment of hate, anger, and destruction on an epic scale. Each interpretation differs from each game, but he has kept a consistent image throughout the series, being the poster mayhem icon for the series theme. Needles is truly evil, and thinks nothing of anything but the joy and desire of death and chaos. His character in Black and the 2012 reboot are his most famous incarnations of Sweet Tooth. A serial killer who uses a ice cream truck and demented clown theme to perform mass homicide on innocent people or fellow contestants. His mask is a part of his evil motives as he made it as an escape from his alter ego Marcus Kane. Sweet Tooth is also the most colorful character; he dresses like a circus clown, and has a colorful vehicle with designs that match that of a local circus clown. He prides himself in being the best serial killer of all time and will stop at nothing to make sure his title remains intact. In some incarnations, he has a great love for ice cream and frozen treats: he keeps these in the back of his ice cream truck along with his various killing weapons and the bodies of his unfortunate victims.

And in TM Head on, he had stolen Calypso's body and thus also gaining control of his powers as well)
Dimensionality: 3-D
Travel Speed: Peak human | Subsonic | Same as before | Same as before | Same as before | likely Peak human, possibly Relativistic+ via size manipulation (Has control over Calypso's powers, which the largest known size he has reached would grant him this much speed), possibly higher (Amplified the speed of Amanda Watts' dragster to such a degree that it broke through a barrier and began travelling backwards through time. However, it is unknown whether or not he would be capable of applying this to himself, as he has never been shown using this ability to affect a living being)
Combat Speed: Peak human | Subsonic | Same as before | Same as before | Same as before | likely Peak human, possibly Relativistic+, possibly higher

Durability: At least Street level (Can survive having his head on fire for extended periods of time. Was relatively fine after being stabbed in the eye with a pair of scissors. Survived the electric chair), possibly Large Building level (Can survive his truck exploding on him and able to drive Axel's Vehicle which has no roof or walls other than his tire to protect him, meaning he consistently tanks hits from other drivers at this level) | At least Large Building level (Consistently one of the most durable vehicles in the series, and can easily tank hits from other vehicles on this level) | At least Large Building level (Much higher than before) | At least Large Building level (Significantly higher than before, having maxed out stats compared to his previous vehicle) | At least Large Building level (Same as before) | At least Street level, as high as Large Planet level via size manipulation

He holds a lot of experience in Twisted Metal, winning most if not all of The TM contest. Is the leader of the Clown Faction)
Weaknesses: Insane. Despite his strength, Sweet Tooth is still human and therefore susceptible to human weaknesses.
