I see a couple possibilities:

1992 - CLV - Coupled with the 1985 audio mix, this could be the best presentation of the film.
1993 - CAV - C-3PO's "tractor beam" dialogue is missing. Suffers too much video noise reduction.
1995 - CLV - noise problem fixed
What makes the 1992 release "best" over the 1995 version?

Audio for the 92 is the 85 mix, which is the closest approximate of the original Dolby Stereo mix that has also been remastered (the original stereo mix was also released on LD if I'm not mistaken.) The audio for the 93 and 95 discs are remixes that added a lot of sound effects and such, but the video is much better. The EditDroid discs combined the 93 video and 85 audio, and are probably the best representations of the film, so far, outside of straight LD transfers.
