Anime, Turtles Forever Continuity

[Powder]

Yeah, but it also seems to suggest that various Mirage artists' renditions of the TMNT are their own universes as well, so I'd take that with a grain of salt.

EDIT: Blah. I forgot about that. There's also that in OVA1 the Technodrome has to underground near New York and I don't see a placement for that yet.

OVA2 it's in Dimension X apparently

No, those two episodes were pretty close in timeline. The writers really buggered that up with saying the Technodrome was 1000 miles beneath the surface but in the later episodes, Baxter could easily fly down there and Zach didn't need a module to drive back to the sewers after escaping. The Technodrome had already broke through the crust in The Big Breakin. *breathees* OK, moving on.

Now THAT would make a really crazy tangent of a discussion, haha.

Clearly only the Lawson TMNT Dimension made it to the Battle Nexus, etc.

I think two different Adventures covers were shown as well.

Anybody feel like identifying them all and maybe comic issue #?

I dunno. The Big Rip Off ends with the turtles learning from April that "two mutants" stole blah blah blah. Then The Big Break In starts with the turtles way later drinking tea and forgetting about it and the Technodrome might be moving. That's the best placement I have right now. It does work in watching order. Just watched it.

So where do ya'll think Transdimensional Turtles happens?

- Michelangelo uses his Grappling hook only
- Krang acts on his own out of revenge or something
- Technodrome is in Dimension X

I'd say before Turtles Forever only because they don't really interact with the Mirage Turtles and the Donatellos stay very briefly to even look around so seeing them again in Turtles Forever maybe Donatello forgot them or whatever

[ToTheNines]

Agreed. Season 4 makes sense to me.

[cammy85]

Season 4 or maybe even post-Turtle Trek/Divide and Conquer. Krang can't really get out in the field much when he's in Dimension X overseeing the missions he sends Shredder on.

[CyberCubed]

Both crossovers are clearly set sometime during Seasons 3-4.

[FredWolfLeonardo]

I think its set after "Shredder Triumphant" and before "Get Shredder" because it starts and ends with Krang being seperated from the technodrome and Dimension X.

Back in the day, several people said the same thing about Turtles Forever, with their logic being that the FW cast being exposed to the 4kids and Mirage universes caused them to take things a little more seriously from there on.

Transdimensional Turtles has to happen after TF since the OT turtles aren't that surprised that there are other versions of themselves. I believe we've discussed this before but in there were like three different Transdimentional Turtles continuity threads, the official discussion and two in this section. Turtles Forever continuity has plenty of threads in this section and the 2k3 one as well.
I'm going to try to compile all the information one of these days.

We also used to have these two awesome forum projects on finding the correct episode order of the OT but sadly it died when it's main contributors stopped and that was over 5 years ago.

edit:we have identified every "universe" of those images of the Turtle Verse but many of them are from the same universes,mostly Mirage so it was concluded that not every "window" was a different turtles verse necessarily.
