Figured this is a notable enough inversion since you don’t really see it that often

* AbusivePrecursors: [[spoiler: In "The Invasion", Kraang Prime reveals that the Kraang mutated a species of ape millions of years ago, mutating them into early humans.]]
* AdaptationalBadass: In the 1987 series, Krang was an exile cast out by his people and forced to turn to Shredder's help. Most adaptations follow this trend. ''These'' Kraang, however bumbling, are a hundred-strong HiveMind who conquered and enslaved almost all their race barring Bishop's resistance movement.
* AdaptationalVillainy: The Kraang are basically an evil inversion of the Utroms from Mirage comics and the 2003 cartoon. While those Utrom accidentally created the mutagen as part of a plan to return home, the Kraang accidentally created it as part of a plan to invade Earth.

Ambiguous Disorder is not a trope anymore, but a redirect to a YMMV entry.


* SharedFamilyQuirks: Since the members of his species that are not subjected to his HiveMind (Kraang Subprime, 1987 Kraang, and the Utrom) do not have his [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment redundant speech pattern]], the rest of the Kraang probably only talk this way because Kraang Prime does. Whether or not this was the result of his mutation or if he always did this out of an AmbiguousDisorder is up in the air.

* AmbiguousDisorder: Unlike the Utrom, Kraang Sub-Prime, and [[spoiler:1987 Krang,]] Kraang Prime and his HiveMind speak in a highly repetitive manner. Whether he has always had it or if he gained it post-mutation is unclear.

Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalWimp: In the '87 series, he's established as being the leader of an Evil Empire of his very own, with various monsters from Dimension X willing to do his bidding and was overall a competent villain before {{Flanderization}} kicked in. Here, he's just a minor grunt who was so much of a fuck-up that he was [[ReassignedToAntarctica sent to the 1987-Dimension for it]].

* TheyKilledKennyAgain: In the majority of his appearances, he usually exits the episode in a blazing inferno, but he usually gets better with an UnexplainedRecovery every time. Though, he was finally KilledOffForReal in "Annihilation: Earth!" when the [[EvilVersusEvil Triceratons blew him, Kraang Prime and the Technodrome into smithereens]], which was not undone in "Earth's Last Stand".

* UncertainDoom: Since the Turtles went back in time after "Annihilation: Earth!", and "Trans-Dimensional Turtles" ends with him being sent to the world of the Mirage Comics, and he was alone when the Turtles did that to him and he had no means of contacting Kraang Prime, it's not known if he ever got out and his apparent death in the former still ended up happening.



* UnexplainedRecovery: He appeared to die in "The Invasion" when a giant chunk of rock dropped on him. He later returned in "Battle For New York", with no explanation for how he survived, and survives another apparent death and turns up in "Annihilation: Earth!". [[spoiler: Third time's a charm, though. He didn't survive the Triceraton attack.]]
