What happens

Half-Shell Heroes: Blast to the Past is a 2015 animated TV movie spin-off of the 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series and is based on the kid-friendly Half-Shell Heroes action figure line by Playmates. In the special, the Ninja Turtles are accidentally transported back to the Cretaceous period by an ancient meteorite and must work together with Bebop and Rocksteady (along with some newly befriended dinosaur allies) to get back to their own time, while simultaneously fending off would-be predators and a faction of the Triceraton Army led by General Zera (voiced by Kate Mulgrew), coming to prehistoric Earth.
