Maybe you’re remembering Darth Editous’ version?

And the squeaky wheel scene was there, but the supplemental material contained several more shots. The film version goes from Poe and Zorri to the shot where Rey smirks at DO while greasing him up.

Actually I’m pretty sure it was a mix of watching the OOT every once in awhile on VHS and Anatomy of a Dewback on the old StarWars.com that gave me those memories haha. I don’t think I watched any fan edits until ANH:R about 7 years ago.

Ah that makes sense! It’s sad and ironic in a way that they’ve purposely excluded deleted/extended scenes from the package since there were some more than minor changes made before release, and yet bits of material cut out or just left on the cutting room floor find their way onto the set via bonus material anyway. To me DO was the surprise highlight of the film. I really felt for that little droid.
