I agree that, like "Same As It Never Was", this could be only a possible future. The secret to preventing the apocolypse must lie in one of Raph's lost memories, likely something that, at the time, seemed insignificant. Triceratons probably couldn't of gotten the bomb. According to the flashbacks,  the bomb was lifted FROM New York and then descended upon the city. If the Triceratons returned and made a second attempt on Earth, the EPF would've detected those guys as well as the Utrom. Ever since Tokka VS The World, they were really serious about any incoming ships to Earth ever since. If the arc was non canon, which isn't supposed to be non canon, it wouldn't matter because the Kraang could've survived or something. Since it is canon, there are still possibilities it could be 1987 Krang, his technology is really dangerous and he is/was allied to the Kraang before they disappeared. He knew TCRI was where all the remaining Kraang technology was held, he could've stolen a bomb and plus, the mutagen wasn't perfected. We know for sure the Kraang did not do that since they wanted to make a second "Dimension X", not a never ending wasteland. Moving on from the "who did it", As we see in the flashbacks (the first one before Leonardo's) the bomb released mutagen gas or something? Because the humans mutated even tho they haven't come in contact with the mutagen itself. I don't think the Kraang are capable of that (I probably underestimated them). Then the second flashback, the turtles were UNDER the bomb somehow. The first flashback showed them in front of the Empire State Building and to the left of it, was the bomb. Why would they go under the bomb in the first place? Either that or Raph's flashbacks were incorrect, I mean he was hit in the head and couldn't remember much. I wish we got some mini arc or series, maybe even in 2D showing the events before the Mutant Apocalypse arc, showing Raph and Donnie under the sewers bracing from the bomb. Having "lost" Mikey and Leo. They return to the destroyed lair where the only two things were a robot that Donnie was building before the bomb thus turning him into Donbot and the Shellraiser. It would be cool to see a mini series like that but it is unlikely now. :(
