Yeah, I assumed he meant the '92 letterbox set (the one I have with burn marks).

What other set has the burn marks? When you first mentioned them, you referred to them as "our old friends".

I meant the PAL THX LD's (French & German) like Citizen, Moth3r & most recently Lee Thorogood have preserved, have them. "Old friends" refer to Moth3r's & Citizen's preservations from several years back, when I was first introduced to the burns.

In my current line of thinking (wild-ass educated guess) this Technidisc pressing LD and Asaki's 1992 widescreen VHS are likely the same transfer/master, and I'd suspect they're missing the same frames at reel changeovers, same 2:3 pulldown cadence, same cropping, etc...
