Well, I am happy that he is releasing the OT version finally. That's what drew me to this forum and to sign the petition.

However, after collecting numerous versions (OCPMovie, Dr. Gonzo, Editdroid, TR47, Cowclops V2, etc) from various sources (most notably Rikter - thanks man!!!).... and printing the labels, buying a R300 printer, etc..... it's kind of ... not so happy. We've all invested time and $$$ on our collections. This was a 'love' versus a 'hobby' where we would anxiously await the next transfer from the forum/board members, and spend time analyzing screen shots and discussing the best way to transfer off the LD sources. So do we keep the transfers on our bookshelves? Or make way for the new?
I say keep them both. Sure OCPmovie, TR47, Rikter, Editdroid, and numerous others spent a LOT of time on their transfers. And Citizen's transfer will be a must-have for me as well. I hope he finishes it with the same attention to detail he gave us in the first two.
Either way, we win. We got Lucas to release the OT. We will have new source material for fan edits.
But..
Now what to do with the lasers???? I spent big $$$ and paid full retail when they came out. Yep - even the Ep1 Jap laser ($125). Ouch!!!
I hear they make great clocks....
