Hey there Rebel Scum and welcome to the boards, although you seem to have nicked my username!

I have the 95 THX widescreen VHS tapes and have transferred them to DVD. The quality is pretty good compared to the laserdisc NTSC versions but much more unstable obviously. There´s some audio dropouts as well as the usual (although minimal) picture bugs and my set was in mint condition. With the great efforts of fellas like Moth3r and Citizen with their PAL laserdisc projects, it´s pretty much certain that a VHS transfer is not gonna come close to those projects. What we should hope and pray for is for those PAL guys to get their hands on the english soundtrack featured on the very rare french laserdisc release. That coupled with the great picture quality of PAL should give us the very best Original OT project possible. And then there´s the X0 Project, which promises to be something very special, although it´s still pretty far away.
