Technodrome

The Technodrome is the semi-spherical-tank-like mobile fortress of Shredder and Krang, the main villains on the 1987 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon series. It was designed and built by Drakus, an inhabitant of Dimension X, Krang's home dimension. At some point before the series Krang stole the Technodrome from Drakus and left him for dead. He later transports it to earth and at some point meets Shedder and they begin their partnership.

All though menacing at first glance through the course of the series the Technodrome is almost always stuck somewhere, whether that be in lava, ice, under the ocean or in Dimension X, making its full capabilities never fully realized.

In the last episode of the eighth season, "Turtle Trek", the Turtles destroy the Technodromes engines and trap Krang and Shredder in Dimension X. The Technodrome gets trapped in Dimension X for good, and the two villians are also not seen again for most of the remainder of the series. (Shredder and Krang return for a few episodes in the last season, brought in by Dregg, who wanted to drain their power, and tried to use Dregg themselves, but then get drained and become powerless to avoid being later sent back to Dimension X, for keeps this time.)

The Technodrome is seen in the last episode, when Donatello gets Krang's exosuit from it.

Technodrome in Video Games

In most of the Ninja Turtles video games, the Turtles will need to battle their way inside this tank-like structure. The interior of the Technodrome changes from game to game. In the first Turtles NES game, the inside of the Technodrome was like a warzone. It even included some of the past bosses in the earlier levels who did not belong in the Technodrome. However, in later games the interior of the Technodrome began to match the Technodrome depicted in the 80s cartoon series. It started including the mouser factory, the security drones, and more realistic inhabitants, such as Mechaturtle and Shredder's failed biological experiments to replicate the Turtles' mutation. However, in the revived Turtles series (known as the 2003 TMNT cartoon series) the Technodrome doesn't exist at all.
