Hmm. I don't know if such a print exists either; that was what I gathered from things I'd read recently around here. I'm sure there was something saying that they had to recomposite all the effects because of the condition of the negative, so that made it sound like it was done before any CG alterations took place. But all I know is what I've heard. Who knows?

The rancor looked better on my old VHS than it does on the my TR47 set, perhaps in part because objectionable bits of the compositing were cut out of the frame by the pan and scan. I dunno. At least it looked better in my memory, anyway, I haven't checked the tape of that either.
