There is yet *another* different, shorter edit, and that is the Swedish version...but that's Swedish subtitled with English audio, so not as easily fixed. The only copy I have of that has terrible video quality - though it came from a first-generation videotape, it was in bad shape and barely playable.
I want to see that version as soon as possible.
At one point I would have said the same thing. Now, though, I think I can be content with what we've got.
My first digital copy was KCMO, purchased via eBay back when I didn't know of any other way to get it (an unremarkable transfer); then I bought KCCI from someone who I later found had been banned from these forums, (at the time the best there was); and was then led to WMAR with its commercials (slightly lesser quality but a valuable time capsule).
And now we have this incredible project. And I think I may be willing to say enough.
[That said, if such a transfer is released, or another of historical significance, then I expect that I will queue up to examine it. But I'm trying to relax my collector's instincts.]
