When I ordered my set about a month ago, they came in cases and shrinkwrapped.

The cases are quite crappy and they smell pretty bad. I had to spray cologne on the disc and cases to keep it from stinking up my dvd rack.

Just ordered the 5 stars! Cant wait!

FYI: 25 cases for $16 shipped. you'll use them eventually, believe me.

could someone with both the DTS set and the 5-star set do some screen grabs for me? I'm still unsure if the marginally increased sharpness is worth sacrificing proper brightness/contrast (those are the only differences between the two sets, correct?)

TIA

No, The sound is much improved as well!

yeah, these star wars dvds would be great, if mine werent seized by customs.......

wha? explain, how did you find out they were seized by customs? why were they seized, because they were bootlegs?

m nervous now, mine are in transit...

yours got seized too? or you just nervous?

Now lets now all get paranoid here! One person has a shipment that is stuck in a shipping facility doesn't mean it is seized! Most likely it's been damaged badly or something and when that happens a lot of times it just sits there until the shipper/receiver have them investigate. Not a single person has had a DVD seized to date so lets all calm down.

Considering that I called FedEx and inquired as to why mine were sitting in a sorting facility. They told me customs seized them and would be contacting me. :-\ yee ha.

Need....assistance.........almost...out... of...... air. {Dramatic Pause}.....Please.....help...send..information, .....gasp

Do not underestimate the power of the dark side. I will have my way, and the circle will be complete. I will be able to watch Star Wars on DVD before 2006.

Received my 5 stars today - from malaysia - took about 2 weeks to chicago. They are *****ing Increadible...They came by way of Fed Ex...I paid $35.99...I am in heaven now....now if i could only find a damn job...good luck to all waiting for them it is worth it....they came in buble wrap with the covers only...i stole 10 AOL DVD cases from my mail room....i suggest u do the same if you live in an apt. building....

I just wanted to thank everyone for their insight and information on these DVDs.

I received mine last Wednesday. It only took 3 days to receive them via FEDEX. I paid 101.00 for two sets shipped. Sold my extra set on eBay for 90.00

The quality is so good I watched all 3 movies twice except for ROTJ. Watched it once and parts a second time. I did notice some lip sync problems in ROTJ that kajs mentioned about the first 40 mins, but that was mainly because I was looking for it.

This is definitely the set to buy.

Are you a Bothan? If so, you will probably die trying to get the information.

I know, I'm sorry I said it, it is practically unnoticeable unless you heard someone else say it. But switching back to 5.1 from Pro-Logic is no big deal for me.

Don't worry about. It didn't detract from my viewing experience. After I noticed it I didn't pay much attention to it, and there isn't a lot of dialogue from humans (close up) to begin with.

Well that definately means yours was siezed! That sucks!

I had 5 sets shipped to me FexEx 2-day and it came through fine so it looks like you got caught in that bootleg sting thyer were doing a couple weeks ago! Mine had been opened for inspection and the bill of lading said it was Japanese Gundum (or something like that) even thought when opened it obviously is Star Wars.
