Questions about the Turtles in the UK

Ever since I heard about how the Turtles used to be known as Hero Turtles in the UK and other things regarding the ways they were changed, I've had a few questions that I've never really found the answer to, so I hope someone can help me with them!

1. Are the Turtles still known as Hero Turtles in the UK today? Or are they now known by their correct name?

2. I heard that the UK has had problems with nunchuku, so what happened to Mike? Did they somehow blur his weapon out on the cartoon? Would you ever be aware of what his weapon was? Would you get the little plastic numchucks in the action figure box, or were they removed? How is it today? Are numchucks fine?

3. What about Shurikens (Ninja stars)? Were they shown? I'm not sure of any big examples of them with the Turtles though apart from how they came with the action figures. I've just heard that there is some strange rule about them in the UK, I think?

Anyway, that's all! Hopefully somebody can help me out with those!
