A brand new, sealed copy of Jumanji (of course it being sealed doesn't prevent it from being pressed poorly). The beginning of side 2 being the worst, speckles everywhere and even having brief audio popping. It's the only case of medium rot I've encountered aside from of a few minutes of Bad Boys. At least Jumanji side 1 cleans up somewhat after about 10 minutes.
I've encountered a few Pioneer discs with cases of mild rot. Though I haven't seen any Kuraray discs with anything more than very few speckles. If it's faint enough to be considered possibly a scratched master, it's not worth reporting as far as I'm concerned. |

| Received a replacement Zorro today (shipped from my state). The jacket is in slightly worse condition but thankfully the discs are spotless. |

Arrived fully intact! I put the discs in the jacket of the one that was broken since it's in better condition (left). Will spin it this evening to see if it's actually rot-free.
Edit: side 1 and the start of side 2 have some light speckling (not distracting at all), sides 3 and 4 are pretty much clean as a whistle. |

Somebody did do an informative screenshot comparison some time ago. Near identical but the DVD seems to be sharper.
