This project is definitely cool, as was the Special Collection. Lucasfilm must be scared of making the money that they'd rake in by putting out a pre-SE DVD set of some kind (any kind).

Pouring over captures from both sets, it's safe to say they both have their strengths and weaknesses.

Are the differences that notable, or are they more of the subtle variety? I've heard conflicting reports that the Faces and Def. Coll. were nearly identical because of each coming from the same source, as well as being different in spite of that alleged fact.
