The first two exemptions are fairly obvious, they occupy ambiguous canon. Volume 4 is obviously canon but remains unfinished (meaning I would have to make up an ending either from scratch or use a questionably canon story as the ending) and the story would take a weird turn as it did with the comic itself (i.e. April as a magic drawing, Don becoming action figure size, Raph becoming a T-Rex, Mike impregnating an alien, etc.). On one hand, it would easily beat the FW show out in pure episode count (I've managed to get an estimate of 168 episodes with the exclusions so far) but on the other hand, including these issues in the adaptation might make for a shark jump situation and that should be avoided.

I find it funny how Mikey always gets away from these odd things.
In Image, Raph loses half his face, Leo loses a hand, Don is a Cyborg, Mikey stays the same
In Mirage Raph becomes a vampire monster, Don is an action figure, Leo and Mikey pretty much stay the same.
