I ALWAYS loved the Technodrome. Whenever it moved, I loved to see it!
But how big was it? It seemed its biggest in the Big Blow Out and Big Break In episodes, in comparison to April's van and the turtles but then in Shredder Triumphant, it seems so small!
Someone said in another post that it's about 40 stories high?

It had to be atleast as tall as the WTC, which was fortunate enough to never be harmed in that show (of coarse there was that incident with the super-sized dimensional portal).

The Technodrome actually looked bigger when looking at it from the inside than from the outside. Yes, it was big, but it seemed bigger on the inside. With all those different rooms that creators came up over the course of the show, I always imagined that it was HUGE.
It's too bad I can't build a full-size replica with all those rooms from the cartoon. It would be awesome just to walk around and explore all those rooms, tinker with all the different machines, and summon all sorts of dimensions with the Technodrome's portal.
I can always dream, though . . . :sleep:

I think i remember from Return of the Technodrome, Raphael made the coment that it was about five times the size of the Houston Astrodome....I've never seen it, but that might give a good idea of its size.....*shrugs*

This is the problem I've had with the size comaprison. In a few eps, characters have been shown to be not even as tall as the wheel 'grooves', and in others, taller than the wheels.
It would be interesting to note if they ever gave an official size comparison in some official TMNT Writers book.
I always pictured it to be taller than the World Trade Center myself.

Its size depends on the writer. I have seen it min many diffrent sizes, but it never really bothered me.

I don't want to pick at the realism, so I'll shut up :-X

The size of the technodrome always kinda varied because of the view you were given of it. The inside however has 987 rooms I believe (Said in The Missing Map.)
