Looks like there are four 'Best Of' DVD's (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Teenage-Mutant-Ninja-Turtles-Leonardo/dp/B00IIK6C24/ref=sr_1_6?s=dvd&ie=UTF8&qid=1392833136&sr=1-6&keywords=turtles)coming out in the UK in May, one for each Turtle.

Most likely just a few Nick episodes, but wouldn't it be awesome if it had episodes from all the shows. :D

The cover says "three episodes from the original series", so no, it's not Nick.

Given that we only ever got official releases of season 1-2 in the UK (back in 2009) I wonder if these are tester DVDs to see if more releases will sell.

Price is likely to be £3-5 (based on the previous 3-episode DVD of the original series released).

Interesting.

The covers were not available yet when I posted this message yesterday.

This could indeed be interesting, I'm very curious if it will only be season 1 and 2 episodes.

Looks like the UK marketing team is stuck in the '90s. While UK does have some mass R2 releases via Germany, its a waste of space by having to settle for just a few episodes. Imagine how upset us fans would be had Lionsgate released just a few episodes at a time. At least it doesn't say Hero Turtles and it can show which episodes are the most symbolic for each Turtle. By expansion, we could have Best Of DVD's for non-TMNT characters (Shredder, Splinter, Bebop/Rocksteady, Krang, April, Casey, Leatherhead, Rat King) to expand this line if it does well.

These remind me of the mid 1990s-Sewer Heroes VHS releases. Remember those? They came out in UK and US I believe.

Odd episode choices....well at least the 3 Turtles with episodes from the pilot. Those episodes may feature the Turtle in question a bit...but it's odd to throw 3 of the 5 episodes on these discs.

I don't care if they just throw some random episodes together on a disc, but bring the OT to the Netherlands!

I'm pretty sure that will never ever happen.

I just hope we get a series release of this and the 2k3 series (since we got season 1 only)

Unfortunaly not. Well, I'm already happy we can order the Visual Novel here.
