Can anyone help me get hold of the 'TB' 97 SE release?

I'm hoping to update the images in the comparisons I did for DVDActive when the new OT DVDs come out (assuming even the non-anamorphic transfers will be marginally better than the discs I currently have), but I need a decent set of transfers for the 97 SEs. The 'LOOK' DVDs I have are very blurry, and I heard that the 'TB' release is pretty good. I'm not bothered about the 5.1 audio as found on the German GKAR set; I'd rather have the English opening crawl etc.

If anyone can help me out/point me in the right direction I'd be most appreciative (and I'll give you a credit in the articles).

I've got the three OT TB discs (don't currently have the Ep I disc, which you don't need for the current articles anyway!). I'm in Australia, but if you don't find someone more local soon I'd be happy to send you some copies from here (or even just send you the appropriate screenshots).

I actually have these because one day I'd like to produce a DVD set about all the changes, sort of a cross between your articles and the Wookie Groomer splitscreen discs.

Ooh, a laserdisc. The Cheat's playin' something on a laserdisc.
Everything is better on a laserdisc. Whatever happened to the laserdisc? Laserdisc!

Cheers. I'm hoping someone local will see this post and be able to sort me out, but I'll keep you in mind. I was planning to do a consolidated article on the prequel changes, as I have access to unaltered versions of Clones and Sith, but I only have the original Phantom Menace on VHS (spit).
