I'd say the best now is the g-force/dark_jedi GOUT-sourced anamorphic trilogy that uses the image stabilization/anti-aliasing scripts.

I'm also kind of a fan of OCP's Classic Editions (they use the 2004 DVDs and a LD transfer to replace all the SE material). They're imperfect, but the idea of them is great. I hope someday someone fully realizes the idea by doing a 2004 DVD/GOUT hybrid (maybe using the g-force/dark_jedi GOUT project).

Frankly, I wouldn't bother with any of the LD transfers at this point (except maybe Arnie.d's V8/X9 transfer of the Japanese Special Collection that's in the works). The GOUT really kind of made all the DC/Faces LD transfers obsolete, IMO.

The G-Force/Dark Jedi transfer, is that the one based on the Japanese LDs, or is it based on the 1993s?

I've been trying to find the OCP classic editions, but no luck. Can't even really get them from him, for some reason. I was able to contact him, but he didn't feel like doing a trade.

Part of the reason I'm interested in the LD transfers is the features on the 1993 set. Have those been reissued ever? I'm also interested in them because I'm interested in getting preservations of all the different versions: the early LD/CED with the time compression and the missing 3PO line, the Japanese discs with the shrinking AR, the different audio mixes, etc., etc. Just a weird little hobby I decided to pick up. Plus, looking at the screenshot page, some of those preservations look a lot sharper than GOUT.
