Region Free Review: Playback Region B/2 is as advertised. But not all were Locked! - Packaged well and an easy way to get the collection at once. Playback Region B/2 is advertised. However, I must have gotten lucky! All disc's have Region A,B,C on them and all but 1 worked in my Region A. I tested in both players (Panasonic DP-UB820-K, & Sony UBP-X700). I was greeted with a screen to select the Region for all of the movies except for "X-Men First Class". That one is truly locked for Region B. NOTE: my UHD players are factory without any Region workarounds installed or used. Review: Great value - I love the X Men. Great value.
