TMNT 2012 Timeline by ffinosie

Hello! Thanks for checking out my timeline.

Contact me on Tumblr or Discord -> ffinosie

A few points before you continue:

  • You can add groups to the timeline even though the site should be read-only. Please don't do this; you can't even change the event to be in your new group.

  • I have incorporated a lot of my own assumptions and headcanons into this timeline - time passage, birthdays, ages, etc.

  • Most of my information is taken and extrapolated from the episode transcripts and both the TMNT and TMNT2012 wikipedia.

  • I would appreciate any feedback if mistakes are found [contact me on Discord or Tumblr -> ffinosie]. I made this while sick with COVID (in the big 2025, I know) and over multiple days, so there may be a few errors. Some may also be my adjustments which i am very happy to explain and debate!

  • I love this show so much I just wanted to say that

  • I purposefully kept out any explicit romance (apart from Yoshi and Shen) so this can reach a more broad audience.

  • If you use this as a source to make your own timeline (with your headcanons and ships), please credit me through my Tumblr. Obviously I can't enforce this but I spent a lot of time on it!

    • Side note: I don't really know how this would happen, but PLEASE don't use this timeline as a source to make content along the lines of MAGA, fascism, bigotry, homophobia and transphobia, classism, racism, sexism, ableism, etc etc. I would hope people are smart enough to understand what I mean here. If you're a bigot the turtles would hate you btw!

  • If you disagree with anything, flick me a message and we can have a yap (I just want to talk about this show bro PLEASE). However if you're going to be rude about it I won't entertain you.

  • The 'groups' represent time travel periods, dimension differences and alternate universes and are named accordingly.

  • I tried my hardest to colour-coordinate but I had to re-use colours from time to time please don't flame meeeee

  • A final partial 'screw you' to Renet Tilley for making the canonical timeline go back to BCE come on bruh

Another huge thanks for having a look. I love this show so much, childhood bias or not, and it genuinely made me so happy making this <3

P.S. Shameless promo but I made a 'TMNT2012 as vines' video on YouTube. I think it's funny (please laugh) so feel free to check it out (user is ffinosie). Comments got turned off and I can't turn them back on though, sorry!!
