During the networks "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Booyakasha!" SDCC 2014 panel, in which attendees got to revel in the mutation madness as the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", nunchuk their way through bad guys, eat pizza, and kick Kraang butt, executive producers Ciro Nieli and Brandon Auman pulled back the curtain to give an in-depth look at the creation of the current series and talk with the amazing voice talent behind NYC's most dangerous teenagers: Sean Astin (Raphael), Rob Paulsen (Donatello), Greg Cipes (Michelangelo), Seth Green (Leonardo), Josh Peck (Casey Jones), and Kelly Hu (Karai). Moderated by Rich Magallanes (SVP of current series animation for Nickelodeon), Nickelodeon and the members of the panel announced Booyakasha TMNT about what ShellHeads can expect to see in the second season finale and a insight into season three of Nickelodeon's hit CG-animated "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" series, including:

* Dimension X will be featured the remaining season 2 episodes of season two, which will help set up the beginning to Season 3;

* Attendees got a chance to see some sketches of upcoming mutants that might make their way into Season 3;
