These DVD's are amazing quality, that are as close to hi-def bluray as we'll probably get.

NOTE: the german DVD release has BOTH the English & German episodes as completely different files, but it looks like the Bluray German release only includes the German files. So make sure to get the DVD not BluRay version. The German files are edited to remove the nunchucks, have a different opening theme song and title card ("hero turtles"), and of course are in German.

The PAL speed up issue is easily fixed with a program called Re-Clock. The very first episode however is not sped up.

The German company who made these transfers did an amazing job that puts the US Lion Gate releases to shame. And the PAL version is a higher resolution too (with more pixels).

It also would be unplayable to most of those in the USA. 2 issues prevent us from playing European dvd's: Region locking and PAL encoding. Even if the dvd's are region-free most US tv's and dvd players won't play PAL sources.
