TMNT: 40TH ANNIVERSARY COMICS CELEBRATION
July 2024
By Kevin Eastman, Edgar Alan Poe, Jim Lawson, Tristan Jones, Gary Carlson, Chris Allan, Erik Burnham, Lloyd Goldfine, Ciro Nieli, Andy Suriano, Tom Waltz, Ronda Pattison , Tom Napolitano, Steve Lavigne, Paul Harmon, Frank Fosco, Adam Guzowski, Sarah Myer, Luis Antonio Delgado, Shawn Lee, Khary Randolph, Emilio Lopez, Michael Dialynas, Pablo Tunica, Freddie E. Williams II, David Petersen, Ken Mitchroney, Aaron Hazouri, Dan Duncan, Sophie Campbell, Jodi Nishijima, Stan Sakai, and Emi Fujii.
Tumblr media
Come and enjoy stories that will remind you of the 40 years of turtle history.
Tumblr media
SCORE: 10 *
* Assuming you are familiar with these iterations.
This is a strange read, and curiously, there are three or four highlights for me, and they are not exactly the ones you would imagine.
Spoilers after the break...
The first story by Kevin Eastman is in the Mirage section of the book but... well... I'll leave at that... I wouldn't call it the Mirage we knew.
Tumblr media
There is a story by Lawson and Lavigne with the Rat King that... it's fun. But, you know... I wouldn't even try to fit it in canon... the amount of continuity physics you need to bend to place this story is not worth the time. Just enjoy as a new story by these two iconic Mirage artists.
Tumblr media
This other story by Tristan H. Jones and Paul Harmon requires more analysis. I'll revisit it on my gang wars video and try to give it more context... but unfortunately... it's just too vague. All I can say for sure is that it happens in the future of that incomplete saga, but the narrator just takes too many artistic choices to be taken at face value.
Also... I believe this is the first official (frontal) appearance of Agent Bishop (unless I got the character wrong, but Jones already tried to introduce him in this saga). I think he is still holding on to it, and I really hope he gets to tell his story. I wouldn't mind a mini-series... just saying!
Tumblr media
The Volume 3 story was... not for me. The dialogue alone felt tired.
Tumblr media
The Archie adventure was short, eventful, and funny... and it looks amazing too!
In just four pages a new character was introduced and... a new love story was implied! And it's not just a gratuitous cameo... this is a funny sequence.
Tumblr media
The Saturday Morning Adventures (the de facto 87 story) looks amazing as usual, but I didn't find the story that interesting. However, it started a theme that would run across most of the stories in this special after this one: Master Splinter.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The 2003 story is a... loose canon?
Hun is Slash, and Shredder is back... so make of that what you want. All I'm going to say is that this felt a lot like watching the beginning of a 2003 episode, with the narration setting the tone.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The 2012 story was one of the least interesting in the previews, but I have to say... it was probably one of the best. It brought back a villain and it technically serves as an excuse to continue the series?
But to me the best thing about the story is the art. I am surprised Ciro Nieli didn't do more comic book work for the Turtles all these years. In fact, if they somehow decided to continue the 2012 universe in 2D in this style... I'm all in. Well, who am I kidding... I would be in anyway... but this looks amazing.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Andy Suriano did probably the most interesting story in the book. Now, I am not sure if his style doesn't translate well to static panels or what the problem is with the comic format... but it doesn't matter... this small story brought in a lot of things that ended on the editing floor after the show's second season was reduced to a few more episodes. There was a rumor about a female turtle, and not only it is here in all its glory, but there is also a brother?
And come on... it's so Lou Jitsu to die with a cliffhanger.
Tumblr media
There are two IDW stories. One is another Splinter story, but the other one is perhaps one of the best in this book.
The Ronda Pattison story takes place just before the Armageddon game, and it shows the five turtles in full sibling dynamic (even Jennika). It was refreshing to see these turtles having fun for a change.
There are no stories by the new team, but... well... that's just starting.

FORTY YEARS OF DISCWORLD!
In the beginning there was… a turtle, somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality. Now, in the midst of our Year of Discworld, we’re happy to unveil the logo for these celebrations!
On 24th November 2023, 40 years after the publication of Terry Pratchett's first Discworld book The Colour of Magic, it was announced that the coming year would be dedicated to four magical decades of the series.
The Estate’s goal every year - but even more so in this celebratory one - is to keep Sir Terry Pratchett’s writing alive and welcome new and returning readers into these wondrous pages. We'll have more of what to expect from the Year of Discworld in time...

Dandelion News - September 22-28
Like these weekly compilations? Tip me at $kaybarr1735 or check out my Dandelion Doodles on Patreon!
1. The slowest of trailblazers: Better DNA testing means trafficked turtles can go home
Tumblr media
““You don't want to just get a turtle and just throw it anywhere,” says Rodrigues, especially because box turtles have a big range, spanning numerous states. So [after they’re confiscated from black market animal traffickers] they wind up stuck in captivity. However, DNA testing has gotten cheap enough and good enough that individual box turtles can finally be traced back to the state where they came from.”
2. New progenitor cell type discovered, may aid in tissue repair and generation
Tumblr media
“A team of SAHMRI scientists has discovered a completely new type of cell that […] could be used to boost healing in conditions like diabetes, where the body struggles to repair itself properly. Crucially, these cells don't express typical "self" markers, meaning they could be ideal candidates for stem cell transplantation as they're much less likely to be attacked by the recipient's immune system.”
3. How a Children’s Playground Is Helping With Flood Mitigation
Tumblr media
“[This park sits above] a below-ground tank capable of holding hundreds of thousands of gallons of stormwater that city officials say would have otherwise spilled onto the streets or streamed into the basements[….] Others increase resilience with newly planted trees that can absorb carbon dioxide and airborne pollutants; once they mature, those trees also provide shade cover that can reduce the heat island effect of urban areas[….]”
4. Transforming agriculture from carbon source to sink
“The study results indicate that by 2050, these agricultural practices [using cover crops, biochar, and agroforestry] could reduce as much greenhouse gas emissions as planting new forests[….] Carbon sequestration on agricultural land is not only important for climate change mitigation efforts but can also enhance agricultural productivity and resilience to climate change[….]”
5. Rewilding success for long-lost bird population
Tumblr media
“Conservation charities have successfully completed the second round of rewilding of a long-lost bird breed in Dover [… after working] over 40 years to restore a suitable grassland for the birds. […] Earlier this year, 108 choughs fledged successfully in Cornwall, according to charity Cornwall Birds.”
6. Over 30 celebrities join auction to put LGBTQ+ books in classrooms
Tumblr media
“Pride and Less Prejudice is hosting its fourth annual #BannedTogether virtual auction this weekend with the goal of raising $20,000 to send 1,600 free LGBTQ-inclusive books to elementary schools across the United States.”
7. Advancement of Indian Buffalo Management Act Underscores Bipartisan Support for Tribal-led Buffalo Restoration
Tumblr media
“The advancement of [this Act] reaffirms bipartisan support of Tribal sovereignty, self-determination and capacity building for bison restoration on Tribal lands. […] The Indian Buffalo Management Act would secure funding for Tribes and Tribal organizations that have an established buffalo herd and management program, as well as provide resources for Tribes to establish new herds.”
8. Anti-inflammatory drug shows promise in boosting motivation for patients with depression
“Growing evidence suggests one potential cause of low motivation may be persistent inflammation, which suppresses activity within key circuits in the brain. […] Patients who received infliximab demonstrated a greater willingness to exert effort in pursuit of rewards compared to those who received the placebo. […] "By targeting inflammation, we're not only addressing the biological underpinnings of these deficits but also offering new hope for more effective treatment options."”
9. Pig transplant research yields a surprise: Bacon safe for some people allergic to red meat
Tumblr media
“Some people who develop a weird and terrifying allergy to red meat after a bite from a lone star tick can still eat pork from a surprising source: Genetically modified pigs created for organ transplant research. […] The company that bred these special pigs shares its small supply, for free, with allergy patients.”
10. Brussels tries out a novel rooftop wind turbine suitable for cities
Tumblr media
“Just like solar panels, the Renewind mini wind turbine can be installed on the roof of a building[….] Renewind's invention is designed to make the most of wind acceleration at the edge of the roof, a phenomenon that could produce between 1 and 3 MWh per year.”

Hello!!
Sorry for my silence for the past while, but I’ve been extra busy and doing a bunch of fun stuff!! Like going to a really awesome Turtle Con to meet ELEVEN TMNT ACTORS, including the first con appearances of Shamon Brown Jr and Micah Abbey!!! It was an awesome day and everyone there was so nice!!!
I drew everyone there gifts as a token of appreciation for all they’ve done in the fandom, and to celebrate the franchise reaching 40 years!! My art isn’t that good but I stepped up my skills to make these the best gifts I could!!
Here’s what I drew!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I think my favorite pieces that I did were the Mondo-Mikey art in terms of background and color, the Keno and Mutant Mayhem Donnie ones in terms of posing, and the Splinter one got me a ton of recognition at the con and my silly art blog on Instagram for some reason! 🥹
I’m happy they liked their presents!! It was truly an amazing experience as a TMNT fan!! 😁
And don’t worry! I’ve been chipping away at my AU! I’m currently working on a side story for it so stay tuned!!
Have a nice day! ☺️

Celebrating 40 YEARS Of Turtles!!!
(TMayNT Art & Master Post)
Tumblr media
Individual posts:
The Mad Dogs!!!!
Raph
Leo
Mikey
Donnie
Whiteboard Doodles
Ugly sketches
I really wanted to participate in the TMayNT challenge because I really care about these silly, pizza-loving turtles!
Unfortunately, I was not able to draw out any of the prompts for the different days, so instead I wrote about my answers instead which you can find here.
And then I went through ALL of my art and took pictures of ALL of my traditional TMNT drawings I’ve EVER DONE!!! (It’s all ROTTMNT because there’re my favorite!)
And now I’m sharing all of these doodles to celebrate 40 years of TMNT and my continuing love for the mutant turtle community!
NOTE: The time frame for all of these drawings are from March 2023 to May 2024! (May, 28, 24 was the last turtle drawing I did from this post).
(I drew this one as a celebration for ROTTMNT’s anniversary!)

"You're the Best, Casey Jones. Thank You..."
Tumblr media
Hello to my first official post on here!
I have been trying to figure out how to post on here for the longest time since I joined and never could till now lol
But this is honesty great! Since the 2nd year to Rise of TMNT Movie passed, I will share what I made that will probably or not make you cry.
...
Enjoy this sad/happy post!
Tumblr media
"Good evening, New Yorkers!
We're looking at another beautiful day here in the city. It's been 3 months since the invasion and today is officially end of construction! We had some clouds stat the morning off and temperatures are in the 40s.
Tomorrow's forecast will be up in the 60s.
This is Alison Cooper of Channel 06. Reporting to you Live at 7:30pm at the new Channel 06 office."
Running along the building rooftops, the red-eared slider and the time traveler checked out the new scenery as many radios played "We'll Meet Again" as many citizens cheered and chatted with one another happily. Casey couldn't help but stop, looking down at the scene with a small smile.
What a relief-
"C'mon, Case! We gotta meet the guys at the bridge!", Leo called for the raven hair time traveler.
Casey snapped out of his reminiscing thoughts, seeing the red-eared slider carry 25 boxes of pizza's on both of his shoulders while he carried 10 boxes.
"Couldn't you just make a portal?", Casey asked, a brow raised as they both jumped over to another roof.
Leo shrugged with a grin, "I could buuuut I wanted to check on all my peeps."
Casey couldn't help but chuckle in response to the turtles sentence. Leo was so much like his sensei and him checking in on the people showed it. He truly loved this city with all his heart and the actions he & his family showed- well, it showed. After the battle was done and over, the city began to rebuilt itself from the ground up for 3 month, the small group of heroes wanted to celebrate their victory against the Krang.
But it wasn't just that but they celebrated the city's quick recorvery.
Things were not easy for either side. The entire city was traumatized by the invasion. Some were missing or were dead while loved ones were left behind. It truly was a deadly horror for the city and it people, and the Hamato family certainly didn't recover as quickly as they should. When they returned underground, Casey and April helped anyway they could to with the four turtle brothers from their injuries, especially with Splinter.
But let's start with the brothers:
▪︎ Raphael had injured eye, left arm burned up to his neck, and a broken rib which resulted a crack on his plastron.
▪︎ Donatello's right arm was burned just like Raph's and his shell has many deep scratches due to him attaching to the ship. So, whenever cold and slime or just anything touches his shell, his sensory goes off intensely and s3nds him in a panic fight or flight mode.
▪︎ Michelangelo had burns going up both his arms all the way up to his face (cheeks), and luckily only had a bump on his head.
▪︎ Leonardo had not only a crack in the side of his plastron on the left side, he had a large crack going down his shell, and his right leg was messed because now he has a limp whenever he walks.
▪︎ Lastly, Splinter had not only a broken back but he had dislocated his right foot and the whole family found out that he had Cancer. No one truly knew how long it had been growing but it was severe.
Surprisingly, he and April didn't have any but scratches but still, Casey was grateful for it all.
If he hadn't come back to warn them of the Krang- if he wasn't here to help fight them off, then none of this would still be here.
Leo turned to Casey, observing the small relief look upon the teens face before he placed his tall stick of pizza boxes on Casey's, "Just for a second. Making a portal!"
And with that, Leo made a portal, taking the boxes back before he and Casey walked through to find the group setting up their spot.
"You made it!", Mikey cheered, rushing over to the boys.
Casey nervously grinned, "Yeah, we kinda took a detour. Leo wanted to show me-"
"A new skate board trick!", Leo interrupted Casey, sending him look.
The three brother looked amongst one another before shrugging going back into setting things up for the small party.
"You guys can set the boxes next to the wall.", Donnie told the duo who walked over to the wall.
This was a great view.
"Hey, so I gotta ask. You said you only ate leaves and rats, right?", Leo asked, setting his boxes down.
"Uhh, yeah. Why?"
"Have you ever had Pizza in the apocalypse?", Leo asked once more, awaiting for the teen to answer.
"No, I don't even what that is but Master Leonardo told me that when I got done saving the world, I should grab a slice?? Whatever that means-"
"DUDE!!", Leo shook the boy, who was growing dizzy by the rapid movement. The slider looked over at his brothers, his dad, and April who seem to overheard the conversation, "Guys, we got to give this man a taste of flavor!!"
"Raph's on it!" Raph said, grabbing the first box from the stack.
While Leo sat the boy down on the ground, Mikey, Donnie, April, and Slinter made way for Raph brought the box over. Opening it, Raph held the box out for the raven hair boy, whole looked at it with doubt before looking at the smiling group.
Hesitate, Casey grabbed a piece of pizza, "So, this grabbing a slice? I don't get it?"
"Wait for it!"
Casey brought the pice up to his face, skeptical before he took a bite out of the cheesy substance and the next thing he knew was that his mouth was in heaven. The teen moaned with delight, his eyes sparkling, "So much better than rats~!"
The teens nod in agreement while Slpinter looked quite offended by this lol
"Hey, the rest of the world we saved is pretty great too!", Leo said, handing an arm over Casey's shoulder.
"ALRIGHTY EVERYONE! LOOK UP HERE!!", April snag a picture of the group before showing it off to Casey.
In that moment, Casey let out a soft gasp to see that it was almost exact to the photo he was given only now it had him in it. It made him wish that his family was somehow watching over him. Looking up at the group, watching them smile and laugh at whatever Leo was doing before a message came through the phone. "Hey April, you just got a message from someone name Cassandra?"
"Whoa! Looks like our friend Cassandra was busy-"
"THAT'S MY MOM?!", Casey exclaimed in shock, making the other come to a complete stop, "There goes a space time continuum."
The group basically ambushed the poor teen with teasing and questions while Raph hung with his slider brother from the side. Everyone on the other side of this screen knows what happens in this scene and how it ends but not all know what happened from the other side of the spirit world side.
For once, Casey's wish had come true. His family was always by his side...
In that moment, standing behind the group and watching their interaction with th young time travelet, the glowing ghosts of the future's past smiled at the scene. "Man, who would have thought time travel would be the answer~", the older ornate box turtle teased, nudging his elbow into the older spiny soft-shell.
"Ugh, please not now Michael!", Donatello groaned, rolling his eyes.
Michelangelo chuckled softly before they both looked where Casey and the rest of the group were at, taking it all in. He sometimes couldn't believe it. Those small teens saved the world and now the future was no longer in danger.
"I still can't believe they did it." Raphael grinned.
"Same here. Even though their us, they seem a little different, don't you think so, Leo?" April asked the slider but all the sibling quickly notice his sad and worriedsome look. "Leo? Are you okay?"
"Y-Yeah, I just...", the slider paused, looking over his shoulder but let out a sigh, "Do you think he'll be okay...", looking at the scene in front of him.
Raphael glanced over at Leonardo before looking back at Casey, who was laughing and smiling at whatever Donnie had said while Mikey was pouting. Raph placed a hand on his brother's shoulder, "I think he'll be just fine, Leo... if anything, this Leo will be able to help him and handle anything that come their way. Just like you did, little brother."
Leonardo could only keep his eyes on his student- his surrogate son in front him with a smile, taking in his brother's words to heart. He was right. Casey will be alright and it's all because of these small teens that he can have a new chapter to his life. But he was scared to leave him. He wasn't ready. What if something happens thatvwas more dangerous than the Krang? There wasn't a lot of dangers but even the yokai and mutants they fought were crazy powerful but then he head his other self talking to his brother: "This wasn't about me. This was about all of us doing what needed to be done because we're heroes."
"Hah, you said heroes~", Raph chuckled, holding his pizza out for his brother.
Leo chuckled silently before pumping his pizza with his brother before they all took a bite of pizza.
That's when they all were mesmerized by the beautiful scenery of New York basked in the sunset colors. "There is it, gentleman. Our home. What a town."
"Beautiful...", Mikey said in awe.
"And if it need defending, we'll always rise up to the challenge."
Man, was he always like this? The ghostly slider grinned as he watched the young snapping turtle get a playful smirk, "You what challenge I'm rising to? BEATING THAT RECORD!!"
...
"Yeah... I think I'm ready now.", Leonardo told his siblings who only smiled and they all continued to watch the scene, watching Raph place all the pizza boxes on top of his head while the group cheered him on. Casey grinned and laughed as Raph began to make his way down the bridge but before when could follow behind the other, he felt a shift in the air. Nothing bad but this energy felt familiar and he looked around him, he saw no one but that didn't mean he shoved off the thought. He always saw Master Michelangelo meditating and talking to his ancestors that passed on but many believed he was crazy. But not Casey. He believed it was them.
The young raven hair boy smiled as he looked at the sky, the ghostly freezing in their spot as see him stare at them.
"I'll be okay. Thanks to you, I got a second chance with our family.", Casey said, his eyes becoming glossy but his smile never faded, "See you later, dad."
With that, he turned around and began to walk down the rail while Leonardo and the rest of the Hamato ghost siblings looked at Casey's retreating form. The slider couldn't believe his hears what he just heard. Dad. Casey called him dad and his felt like it wanted to burst even though he was dead. He had so many emotion building up inside him: pride, happiness, and hope for the young boy that tears began to build up in his eyes. His chest heaved up and down heavily as he tried controlling his breathe, their weight in his heart growing as tears finally streaming down his face like an endless waterfall, and with one last action, the world to seem to move in slow motion. The slider had wrapped his arms around the teens small figure, "You're the best, Casey Jones. Thank you...", Leo whispered in the teen ear.
His voice had reached the teen and as the teen turned around he saw no one behind nor did he sense the presence.
He smiled for he knew and continued down the metal rails to meet with the other.
...
The End...
...
That was it! Hope it was okay and I know this definitely wasn't the best typing I've done lol but still, I hope you all had a blast or not with this small drawing + reading post.
Have a blessed rest of your day or night.

38: whispering “I love you” before a chaste, delicate kiss. title from this
“And it painted a mural all over our kitchen. You know, on the back wall, the green one where you accidentally chipped off a bit of the paint? Yeah. With its hind legs, and a paintbr—just a huge—just, like, angels, and babies. Honest to God, it was better than the Sistine Chapel.”
“So this was a Michelangelo deer?” Your boyfriend asks humorously. “That’s funny. I just had a turtle painting Picasso in my dream the other night. What are the chances?”
“You are such a little shit,” you say, but you’re both laughing. Another day of sharing your dreams to each other—a habit that started out of a way to start morning conversations and continued because of how much you enjoyed listening to each other talk. Your dreams varied, from nightmares, to those of the ordinary type, to the weirdest, most obscure kinds of figments you could possibly conjure.
Like this one. “But that’s not all. So this deer. It’s done painting this magnificent mural, right?” 
Charles nods, genuinely interested, adjusting his glasses as he pulls you onto his lap, wraps his arms around your waist. “So it finishes the painting, and it turns and faces me, and behind it, the painting totally melts off! Like, gone. Just—all of it—poof. The wall’s all green again. And I’m begging the deer to paint it back.”
“Oh, it betrayed you!” Your boyfriend clutches his chest. “How could it possibly?!”
You flick his cheek to shut him up. “And it repaints another painting over it, as per my request, but it’s a totally different painting. It’s not even a painting. It’s just your and my initials, tiny and accompanied by a little heart. No angels. Or babies. Or chapel ceilings.”
“And that’s it.” He fiddles with the sleeve of your knit sweater.
“That’s it.” You turn from the couch and toward the kitchen, where you can spot the wide, forest green wall you’d been talking about. “Just by the fridge. A heart and our letters.”
“Okay. As a professional dream interpreter,” he says, eliciting a scoff out of you, “I would say this means we need to do the same thing.”
“Paint the Sistine Chapel?” You joke, wrapping your arms around his neck. “Or adopt a deer?”
“I’ve got my own animal in the house already, thanks.” You roll your eyes at the offhand joke but allow him to continue. “We still have spare paint in the kitchen cabinet from when you begged me to repaint the bookshelf white.”
“Race you,” you whisper, clambering off his lap and bolting toward the cabinets.
Unfortunately, you’ve hit a caveat. You can’t find the tube or can of white paint for the life of you, so despite your headstart, you find yourself staring at your boyfriend’s proud, paintbrush-and-paint wielding grin. You roll your eyes, gesturing for him to start.
“Don’t mind if I do,” he says. “How’d it look like?”
“Just let me—” you fight briefly over the paintbrush but eventually you’re drawing careful strokes of each initial, housing them inside a tiny heart. You place the brush down and step back, proud of your handiwork. “It’s just like the deer’s.”
He hugs you from behind, and you clutch his arms, both of you just staring at this new, human, lovely as it is imperfect, addition to your home. He leans down, stops right as your lips brush together, then whispers delicately, “I love you.”
You kiss him back, smiling. When he pulls away, you poke his nose. “I love you, too.”
“So it’s an extra 40 euros to get the green color matched and have that splotch painted over,” the super says boredly. 
You stare at the white. A “splotch,” he’d called it.
You wonder how many times you’ve called something a splotch, garbage, irrelevant, when in truth it meant so much more to a total stranger. You want to turn to the super, say, coolly, casually, “Oh, my ex-fiancé and I drew that a couple years ago, so it’s not a splotch, you son of a bitch.” But you’ve no time for deep thinking or mapping out possibilities. You need to empty the place by today.
“Yeah, just go ahead and add it to the charge,” you say politely. “I forgot what that splotch was all about, actually.”

Day 31 TMAYNT
Well here we are, the end of the month!!
It feels just like yesterday when I decided to do this challenge. I got to see lots of people like me celebrating this milestone of reaching 40 years of turtles!
But enough about that!! Let's get in the challenge. In terms of art style for a show I obviously had to go with rise. They really changed the fandom with it pushing the creative boundaries and story of the turtles.
Tumblr media
Now, if we're asking about the favorite art style of an artist, Well, that honor goes to @pasteilian!! I absolutely love their designs for the turtles and usagi. I can't show all the designs of the Bros and Usagi, but here's Donnie in their art style because he's my favorite💜.
Tumblr media
Happy 40th Years TMNT Anniversary everyone!!

I love your account!! Super happy to see someone appreciate all of Rise's art!!
(I found all this info on the TMNT wiki, the sources are linked, of course, so you can see for yourself) All of the points below are canonical info confirmed either by the show itself or by Rise's staff writers:
Yoshi didn't move to the US immediately. His film career began in Japan and then he went to the US. He was already a famous celebrity by the time he moved.
Yoshi was in his early thirties (30-33 y/o) the day he proposed to Big Mama.
Yoshi's film career ended in the mid-90s (1994-1996) (i.e., he was abducted).
Yoshi and the Turtles' mutation occurred in approximately 2005.
Yoshi was in his early forties (40-43 y/o) the day he was mutated.
Yoshi was in the Battle Nexus for 10 years before escaping.
The show begins in 2018 in-universe.
The episode "The Evil League of Mutants" takes place precisely 13 years post-Yoshi and the Turtles' mutation.
The episode "Lair Games" takes place in 2019 in-universe.
The show's season 2 finale ("Battle Nexus: New York"-"Rise") takes place in 2019 in-universe.
The Rise movie's present-time takes place in 2020 in-universe.
This date hasn't been confirmed to be canonical by the prop designers/writers so it very well could mean nothing, but it might be worth taking into account that the clapboard of the film Big Mama and Yoshi met on, Crouching Shrimp Hidden Tiger Prawn, is dated 1984. So they may have been a couple since then, considering how they were both into each other immediately and aren't shy people. Is this is true (again, the 1984 date could be wrong) and we make the math as clean-cut as possible by declaring Yoshi proposed in precisely 1995, was trapped in the Battle Nexus for 10 years, and mutated in 2005, Big Mama and Yoshi were a couple for 11 years before the proposal. It hasn't been confirmed how old Yoshi was when his film career started and it hasn't been confirmed how long he was making Japanese films before he immigrated to the US.
Okay, so I was a little off with my math, which is pretty on brand for me. But yes! Here's a more precise timeline with significantly fewer guesstimates.
I love when we can come together as a fandom and figure these things out!
