How about this, when they first appeared they all wore red, It was not really till the cartoon that you started to see them more with the different colors which then allowed toys to be made. Baxter Stockman was also originally black. Not that it matters when you become a fly.

this is stupid

Most comics have some sort of mutant, and especially in the early 80s, mutants were everywhere with the increased popularity of titles like x-men. April was a reporter first in the cartoon, so it was a plot device. They live underground, see mutant answer, they eat pizza because it delivers, see also mutant. So could it be, perhaps, but it is also just as likely that the tropes were already there for the assembly.
