I do honestly wonder if he will leave the splice alone like what the 35mm transfer of Shrek did.
Who knows, but the splice in the Shrek 35mm transfer wasn’t that distracting, so I think it’ll be fine if left in.

I’d agree too. Besides, it sucks we weren’t aware which part of the third reel where the splice happened.

Yeah, but I guess we’ll just have to see the final scan to see if it’s too distracting or not. I’ll just be happy to finally see the film in its original presentation for the first time. However, if Trist decides to fix the splice, I’ll be happy with that too!

Very excited to hear that it’s almost here, been wanting a copy of this since I realized why my blu ray didn’t look like the VHS copy I grew up with

Hey y’all– the final encode is FINALLY finished and I’m currently in the process of slowly but surely getting it out to people. Thank you for bearing with me!
My apologies, I have indeed been quite busy with my personal life being a bit of a mess at the moment. I will be messaging people individually and getting the necessary details to share the scan with them– just hang in there, we are so close!
~Trist
I’m excited and can’t wait to see it.

Same. Right now the release is taking forever.

I think Trist has a preview scan of Toy Story in 1080p. You’ll need to DM him with a photo of your own copy of the movie. (whatever if it’s VHS, VCD, DVD or Blu-Ray)
I wouldn’t upload it on any other sites like Internet Archive if I were you.*

Trist is trying to free up space for the file since it’s in 4K; it’s coming soon enough, so we just have to be patient.

When should we donors send Trist a picture of our Toy Story physical media copies? I assume that it will be when it’s done, but I wanted to make sure that I wasn’t supposed to have already done it. 😛
Keep up the good work, Trist!

I’m sorry everybody- but I’m refunding everybody who I haven’t sent the scan to yet.
This project has gotten uncomfortably big for me and I am obsessively paranoid about copyright issues, so I don’t want the final scan to become as widespread as I predict it to become.
I have found a large chunk of people in this community to be incredibly rude, disrespectful, and entirely ignorant of how dangerous it is to share these sorts of things on a widespread scale, and I don’t wish to associate with it any longer except for in as private of a context as possible.
The leaks that happened not too long ago have eliminated just about any trust I have for the majority of this community, and therefore I am no longer comfortable sending this film to so many people. This is a big reason as to why I have been stalling ever since the print got scanned- though the busy nature of my personal life certainly hasn’t helped.
Also, I hate to say it- but with where I am in life currently, I do NOT have the mental capacity to deal with this caliber of shit. It has become more stressful than fun at this point. I raised far more money than I ended up needing, so I feel that this is ultimately the right thing to do.
I have already refunded everybody on PayPal (except for a VERY small, as in single-digit, number of people who I trust), something to the tune of $500 total. The full scan will not be sent to anybody who hasn’t received it already, and I don’t recommend DMing me asking if you can donate or get the scan or have your donation back or anything along those lines, because I’m not going to respond. Clips of the scan may be uploaded to YouTube at some point, but only to an extent that doesn’t potentially incur any wrath from a certain large, soulless corporation that happens to own the film and all IPs within it.
My apologies to anybody who is disappointed by this. I started out extremely excited about the prospect of doing this project and sharing it with everybody who helped out- and in the end, I am extremely satisfied with how the scan looks, and I hope to share it in some capacity in the near or distant future. A lot of you were really cool when I messaged you and have been super patient, so I’m sorry that this is the way it has to be. Still, I need to put my real life before my life on the Internet, and this has simply become too much for me, so I’ve finally decided that this is what I must do.
If you’re depressed about all of this, just remember- this movie has DOZENS of releases and rereleases from over the years- all with different visual appearances- and has still remained entirely unchanged in terms of story and dialogue. All of the wittiness, the charm, and the incredible heart that we associate with 90s cinema and classic Pixar is still intact- this movie is KICK ASS no matter how you watch it!
Perhaps a full 35mm scan of this movie (be it mine or somebody else’s) will publicly surface one day- but even if it doesn’t, Toy Story is still one of the greatest animated films of all time. That’s what brought us together in the first place- great movies! 😃
To everybody who offered their support towards this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity- thank you for your passionate interest that you shared with so many other denizens here on the 'net. To my closest homies in this community- GOD BLESS YOU. #norbitrobbinscut 😎

Thanks for your hard work, Trist. I’m sorry to hear that this project has become more stressful than fun, and that people have taken advantage of your time and talents.
I wish you all the best going forward, and I thank you for your efforts!

I would admit, that’s a great choice. Having money be involved in a fanmade project based on copyrighted material might be considered offence and/or breaking the rules of this forum site, hence the copyright issues Trist has pointed out. Look at Sonic Omens, where of course, money was involved in this project. And since Trist was able to thankfully refund the donations, and based on what he said, I bet he may no longer be distributing it. Sucks though since I really do want to see it though.

This is disapointing, but you’ve got to do what you’ve got to do. How long will it take for the PayPal money to be refunded?
