Yes it's the UK Intro, but the "Teenage Mutant Hero" Sign has been altered to just a "Ninja" Sign:


This change was made in apx 2003-2005 when the complete Series was reshown for the last time on Television. As far as I found out the trademark to the Title Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles wen out and so it had to be altered by the TV Channel so they would be able to show reruns of it.

Yes the voiceactors are still in the Opening theme song. I didn't even know that there is one without them! Whats the title on Itunes - I have to find that peace of Music ^^

Also, the closing credits vary, but the entire English credits are used, which means that the wrong voice actors get their credit! We only see a couple of German credit pages after these where the MWS/Fred Wolf/Group W logos would be found on the English versions. Plus, the German Outro is a somewhat jazzy theme with lyrics that I really enjoy.

Yeah the german Ending Song is freakin' amazing - Gotta love Frank Zander for it ^^
