Oh well, just going by what dvdcompare said.

"The Commander" and "Codename: Wild Geese" are the same films/transfers they used for the Blu-rays, right?

That means that "Commando Leopard" is a new release and that the film hasn't been released elsewhere in the AV library? Is that correct because if so, the completionist in me has to get the AD DVD for that one.

I just checked. The German DVD runs 83:54 Minutes and the Arrow Video transfer is 83:53 Minutes ... so yeah, it's very likely they used the same cut version of the film. A shame!

The Swiss DVD is supposed to run 97:04 Minutes, according to my sources.

That's right!
