ocpmovie, who created the RC, found someone with a screener VHS of the 80 min. cut that was letterboxed. The RC was also produced in 16x9. He's the source for all the versions except for the workprint, which is from an AVI off emule.

Technically, it would be possible to have a seamlessly branched DVD with all four versions since the continuity isn't that radically different. It's mainly footage missing rather than scenes being re-arranged (with the exception of the first One Eyes scene being moved to the prologue in both released cuts).
