Okay so TLL 2084 is just not sane to get.

I was wondering if there were appreciable differences in picture quality between the other Japanese LD releases of this film.

Going by picture quality from the LDs you are best getting the box set of the film Macross The movie : Perfect Edition (1984) [BEAL-448]

The first release Macross: Ai Oboete Imasuka (Do You Remember Love?) (1984) [SF078-5022] has the original end credits in black but minus the Dolby Surround sound.

The English release has the audio with the Hong Kong dubbers, and I love my copy :mrgreen:
There was a copy that sold on ebay in the last 6 months with a cheap buy it now for 100.00 but I couldn't justify getting a second copy at the time.

Heh, I'd have bought it at $100 but I wasn't looking at that time.

Also thanks for answering.

There is also a the CLV version of the “Perfect” version (has colorful full sized new art). It’s probably the same price or more than the CAV version since they seem to have made a million copies of that box. It’s more convinent to watch but you really have to have a copy this movie in CAV. You just have to. It’s a gold mine for frame by frame maniacs.

Yes I believe the image is the same but the still step is pretty amazing, unfortunately it suffers from the improper 2.3 and you get some jitter unless your player has the extra field still step for CAV.

There is actually one on YAJ with a buyout price of 1k yen. Estimating the weight at 1kg (could be more) I'd be looking at $17-30 before any domestic shipping charge within Japan. Not too bad really.

It’s three discs so more than 1kg for sure.

I was thinking that might be the case, maybe closer to 2kg. I was also stink eyeing a BEAL 921 while I was on there but all of them are "no claim no return" and don't have good disc pictures.

Well there will be a flood of DYRL on ebay and other marketplaces very soon.

Wonder which 1984 version it will have. Theatrical with black credits or with the flashback credits :?

I don’t think they are releasing it without the concert ending ever again.

I’m puzzled why this doesn’t cost more…

Maybe I’m wrong.

“This set includes two versions of the film: the 1984 Theatrical Format and the 2016 Complete Edition. ”

Taken as described “1984” means no concert ending and a different sound mix (I think?).

Also, as for why it doesn’t cost more, I just realized while this is much cheaper than the Hybrid Blu-ray was it doesn’t have Flashback so they can sell that for another 6800 later.

They’re going to need some kind of AI thing to make a 4K Flashback. It was edited on video so they can’t really do a rescan, there is no film master. If the original elements still exist they could recreate the cut in 4K…and then charge 9800 for it again like they did in the 80s.
