Judith Hoag declined to reprise her role as April in the film's sequels due to substantial edits of scenes involving her character.
In the script and novelization, the young boy that Tatsu attacks was to die from the beating. The sounds of the boy breathing and others saying he would be all right were added at the last minute after the movie ratings board objected to the scene.
Toward the end of the movie, one of the street punks says to the police chief "Check out East Warehouse on Lairdman Island." The creators of the Ninja Turtles were Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird (II).
In the Foot Warehouse, the boxes in the foreground near the skate half-pipe read Mirage, which was one the comic book company that originally published Eastman and Laird's Ninja Turtles comic.
