Rambo trilogy original mixes & color timing
At least they asked for the LD audio files for Robocop 2. Smile
” Site user and "Blu-ray Guru" Brett C wrote on the forum for this title that he originally supplied Shout! Factory with an audio file from his 1991 LD for the 2017 CE.”
But would not be surprised if some studios kept these things ”in the dark”.

Yeah, in France, some publishers are guilty of that. One even took a sync where the fan added a bleep at the end (to recognise when someone would steal is sync) and it ended up on Blu-ray complete with the bleep LOL

So, anyone lucky enough to have seen these new Lionsgate versions? Are they more faithful to the original color timing? From Bluray.com I have red that the LD audios are very good but Rambo III has some serious compression issues(?)

Apparently, II and III have had their black levels fixed and the image pops more than before. Otherwise it’s the exact same masters and grading basis. The guy couldn’t answer me regarding the off-centered shots being fixed or not, nor answer other people regarding the subs in III. First Blood looks basically the exact same. Regarding audio, he's not too exhaustive but the PCMs and 70mm 6-track for II as a Dolby TrueHD 5.1 track are real.
It's also a very limited boxset already sold out and I haven't seen any of these in the wild...

Yeah, I was disappointed to hear of the encoding issues.
I wouldn't buy the box anyway, I'm waiting for individual releases, since I'm interested only in the original trilogy.
I wonder if I should upgrade now, from my German blu-rays:
