Can anyone point me to a site that sells the ‘real’ pressed versions of the 5 Star Collection?

I've got a few links you can try BUT to be honest most of the re-sellers have been out of DVD9 discs for months and now sent out the DVD5 versions, I did email one of my old DVD Silver (or Durons) suppliers and he let me know that; yes there are still a bunch of the DVD9 5 Stars out there and on the streets of Asia, BUT that the majority of resellers now only ofer the latest STAR WARS DVD's on DVD9 - the last time I ordered was about 2 months ago for another forum member and I did get the DVD5 - As I was writing this email I check the websites that I know of and they are ALL sold-out

Thi is a photo of the FIVE STAR - DVD9 and DVD5 (some have stickers that say DVD9 but are only DVD5

) - these are all gone now and replaced with the 2004 versions

The replacements are the new 2004 versions

I ended up with a spare set of these but with different covers to those above.

They are up for grabs if you want them still............

What is the quality of this set? I've never seen it, but I've been under the impression that many of the other versions done here are better quality than the 5-star.

the quality is typical of chinese bootleg releases very bad. it is better than the vhs tapes but not by much, it certainly does'nt come close to the official laserdiscs and is'nt that the point with preservation? I'm sure there are many better releases on these forums of the 1997 special editions trilogy.

I had them, but GAVE them away to one of my nephews. I ended up creating my own dvd's from the Definitive laserdiscs (complete with motion menu's, easter eggs, etc) and they turned out much better than these bootlegs. After that I had no use for these.

I have a set of these DVD9's as well in my collection. They look like LD transfers and the "Making Of The SE" featurette is included if I remember correctly. You can e-mail me or p.m. me for possible trade. I hope this offer helps. I also have the SE on VCD w/ TPM on VCD as well. Not that TPM on VCD is a real gem of a find or anything....lmao!!!

Happy Holidays 2 ALL of you here @ OT.com

Thanks for having me here and letting me pop in and out as needed even though I am not the most technical or even educated nay-sayer of a critic......This place IS the BEST STAR WARS site around!!!!
