OK, in honor of the release of Toy Story 4, I’m working on a logo restoration of the original movie, in 3D and its original 1.5K resolution. Preliminary planned languages are English, French Canadian, Mexican Spanish, Castilian Spanish, German, and Italian.

Sources I plan to use include:

  • Toy Story 3D Blu-ray (for the bulk of the restoration)
  • Toy Story UK R2 DVD (for the logo restoration and the Dolby Stereo Digital English track)
  • Histoire de jouets Canadian pan-and-scan VHS (for reference when framing to the theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1, as it appears to be sourced from a 35mm release print which was apparently pre-cropped to the aspect ratio from the original 1.66:1)
  • Recreated rating slides, including MPAA G card

I may have to recreate some stuff from and/or use lower-quality sources for the finished product, so bear with me. I’ve already created a preliminary version of the zooming-out Disney logo at the start, and it looks a little rough with the stereo separation I applied for the zoomout/transition to the opening scene. PM me for a WeTransfer link to the stereo 3D opening logo recreation, which should be ready as early as the next day for those who request it.

That’s gonna be so good! I’m doing a DTS LaserDisc to 1080p MKV project, and Toy Story is among the titles, so Threepio, is it okay if your transfer is the source for the main feature on the Blu-ray copy of the classic animation for the project I’m doing? Also, may I have a WeTransfer link to the stereo 3D opening logo recreation (but I don’t know how to PM you!)?
