None of the restorations have access to the negatives. All the scans are from release prints of varying quality and types.

Disney is not known for taking care of their restorations, so we don't feel like waiting for when and if they ever get around to releasing a version of Star Wars. It will inevitably have many if not serious issues if they were to do it, based on their track record, budgeting, etc.

We have the advantage of several years of experience by professionals in the industry that have been working on it, along with the peer reviews here on the forums.
