Nathan Butler responded to my query:
I’ve never really delved into Video8, mainly because, to my knowledge, didn’t have Star Wars releases in the U.S. The only ones I’ve ever seen (ROTJ is the only one I’ve seen, I believe) have been from markets like the UK. I’m only now dabbling at all in pre-DVD releases from the UK. I will probably look into it at some point. You might ask on the Star Wars Home Video Facebook group. I’m sure someone there is more versed in UK releases and would be able to say for sure.
