100% agree.
I'm fine with subtle nods to other incarnations, but these are more fan service than anything. As far as we know, the Time Scepter or Shredder's helmet could have completely different back stories than what we saw in the live action movies.
For example, the last time that the live action TMNT in the movies saw the Shredder, he was Super Shredder, which had a different helmet than the one we saw on the shelf in the 2007 movie.
I saw that trophy room as nods to the fans without necessarily tying these turtles to any specific continuity. As far as I'm concerned, they are their own incarnation.
