I’ve been looking for an excuse to justify my absurd Star Wars home media collection! Haha.

There’s a huge assortment of options you can choose from. My personal favourite for both aesthetics and quality are the '94 UK Widescreen releases. Great quality and the artwork is to die for.

Excuse the crappy photo on my bar, but I was watching it earlier today, so here’s my copy of ESB under the aforementioned banner:

does the Japanese VHS of Revenge of the Sith have English audio?

Don’t count on it. I’ve only got the Australian and UK copies of ROTS on VHS, but I have several copies of TPM and AOTC from non-English speaking regions on VHS and they’re all dubbed in another language.

Get a PAL or Region Free VCR, you’ll be better for it 😉

I HIGHLY recommend the 1997 SE Limited Edition Collectors Set if you happen upon it at Goodwill or something

I highly recommend the 2000 reissue if you’re interested in the SE on VHS. It’s a much nicer, cleaner box in my opinion, plus you get some extra bonus features on there. Video Collector has all this on his site if you’re interested.

As Jason mentioned, Video Collector is seriously a great resource for this sort of thing. I’ve got a massive collection but it doesn’t even compare to his, and the amount of work he’s put into cataloguing it all is amazing. His site has helped me out numerous times. His VHS section is insane.
