Yes they play on a UK player, and yes they have English audio on main film and special features, also no forced subtitles!. Uncut also!

Any confirmation of special features (other than the commentary) on Turtles 3?

Besides the commentary there are only trailers included.

Was there ever confirmation if these are region free releases?

caps-a-holic has them listed as Region B only.

I'm curious about the audio commentary on the first film. On the DVD, you can hear the cartoony German sound effects in the background, so Steve Barron must have been watching the PAL version for recording. Given the movie plays at proper speed on Blu-ray, how does the commentary sound? Is it slowed down and distorted, is it out of sync (you can easily tell during the Foot raid in April's apartment—tons of silly sound effects)? Wondering how they handled that.

Picked up all three Blu-rays for the commentaries, and to answer my question, Steve Barron's commentary on the first movie is slowed down for the Blu-ray. Kind of a bummer, means I'll have to watch the DVD whenever I listen to the commentary because I'd rather hear his voice and inflections as they are without being pitched down.

Can someone please confirm whether these German blu-ray releases are region free? I have the U.S. versions but would love to have these as well for the bonus features.
