You have to get the PAL disc from Germany, I'll dig out the link.

My enquiry to Pioneer's mail order retail spares company led me to this:
http://www.4ourhouse.co.uk/cgi-bin/product.pl?PID=3745307
I'd be cheaper getting it from Germany!
However, the same site had this:
http://www.4ourhouse.co.uk/cgi-bin/product.pl?PID=3434011
which is considerably cheaper than this:

I think that last one must be pressed to order!
(£1 = 1.16 Euro = 1.49 USD)

maybe it is solid gold??
The German one comes to about 45 pounds. I can always post you mine if you ever want to calibrate your LD player using the service manual.

I found a MUSE test disc in Japan going for about $150, which is actually fairly cheap. Such a shame there was never a Star Wars release on MUSE.

The Wizard of Oz: The Ultimate Oz - Collector's Edition - on Side 4 long after the movie, and 4 minutes after the Turner logo are some odd patterns. It starts with 30 frames of regular color bars and then gets into a bunch I've never seen before, with extremely high-pitched audio tones (also much louder than the movie soundtrack). In total the onslaught lasts 600 frames.
2001: A Space Odyssey (Criterion-3M pressing) (CC1160L) contains color bars on chapter 40 starting at frame #44669.
Luke threw twice…maybe.

It looks like all Criterion Collection laserdiscs contained color bars.
Just FYI, confirmed recently --
RE: the 2001: A Space Odyssey 2-disc Criterion Collection CLV budget laserdisc [CC1235L] (1990), in the Cinerama 70mm 2001 preservation. Is it possible? thread

Ok, I found a copy of the CLV.

I got the LD Monday .... Sadly, there are no color bars on the CLV which is odd for a Criterion.
