That probably is the best source. After thinking about what I’ve seen in some of the copies and looking for a good solid area of color, I picked a frame at 0:00:49 (after the Episode VI, Return of the Jedi, and the first line of the crawl appears) and I took a chunk off the lower right of the N in Return and processed that with some blurring to even out the color, picked the center of the image and I got the RGB color 232, 198, 39 (Hex: #E8C627). Just from that little process I think it is still unclear what the specific color is, but that should be in the ball park. Another way would be to take points from multiple frames and multiple places in the frame and create an average. There might be some more automated tools that I am not aware of.

The only version of the logo that I’m aware that Mike Verta shared is on his website and isn’t very high quality. From that I got 255, 198, 45 (Hex: #FFC62D) from the lower side of the S in Star as that seemed to be the most even spot of color.

I’m really curious to see what color other people get.
