This makes me think if there is ever a release of the unaltered theatrical versions of the original trilogy, it will be streaming on Disney+ only and not on a disc.
You could well be right on that, mate. Same for the 1997 Special Edition version too (of which pristine prints are already in existence - yet remains unreleased).

When someone highlighted the image seemed to be of a higher quality than is usually out there - ‘Say…that’s an AWFULLY CLEAR screengrab…’
Pablo responded with - 'I have my sources. 😉’
If Pablo is inferring there is a ‘high quality’ version of the Holiday Special in their archives… then hopefully one day we’ll see it up on Disney+. After all, there is not much point in such a version being kept in there and remaining unseen by the fans…
(not forgetting the many quality preservation projects of it on here, of course!)
