In other media
Television
- In X-Men: The Animated Series, Nimrod made a number of appearances as a villain starting in the "Days of Future's Past" multi-part episode. He was shown as being a new series of advanced model Sentinels from a future where they were mass produced following the assassination of Senator Kelly at the hands of a Mutant. The fearful human population thus began rounding up Mutants and placing them in concentration camps with the Sentinels serving as their enforcers. However, the Sentinels concluded that Mutants were humans and thus mankind needed to be protected from itself. As a result, both humans a Mutants were placed in camps. Nimrod was dispatched following the capture and escape of Wolverine from a detention center. A Mutant tracker named Bishop's service was also terminated leading to him joining the resistance with Wolverine. Nimrod entered into the resistance headquarters where Forge had constructed a time machine to send a person back into the past to stop the assassination of Senator Kelly. The Sentinel was responsible for killing Wolverine but not before Bishop went trough the machine to go back in time. Nimrod pursued him Bishop into the modern age where he confronted him along with the X-Men. He managed to overpower them until they combined their attacks destroying Nimrod's body but his body began to self-repair itself. This was until Bishop used his gun to target a temporal beacon that locked Nimrod into the past and its destruction sent him back to his own era.
