That’s the third one from the right. The third one from the left was the one I was interested in 😉

https://picclick.de/RAR-4x-Star-Wars-VHS-Box-KRIEG-133327519601.html

It contains a fourth VHS cassette called “Classic Creatures: Die Rückkehr der Jedi-Ritter”. Possibly a making of featurette about the ROTJ puppets, ewoks, etc.

stimmt genau 😃

is there a hd version from “the making of star wars” available?
the same from the empire making of´s…

TN1’s working on a restoration of a 16mm print of “The Making of Star Wars”, but as for right now there’s only an upscale version available. They’re also working on a 16mm print of “SPFX: The Empire Strikes Back.”

yes,yes…that sounds great.many thanks

<strong>Return Of The Jedi</strong> - a 'Behind The Scenes / Making Of' <strong>images</strong> thread

So, rearranging 525 pictures manually in an imgur post isn’t exactly my idea of fun. So unless there’s an easy way to share an imgur gallery that I don’t know about, I’m going to have to do it another way. Any suggestions? I’d prefer an option were the images can be arranged by name, otherwise the whole thing will be a complete mess to scroll through.

why would you upload pics from a making of that can everybody watch?
isn´t it better upload stuff that isn´t watchable,only exists as pics?
only a suggestion…
