So what a co-incidence. I was asking on the forum here earlier how does one get hold of a copy of some of these reworks.
Then when checking a tracker i am in, i saw this pop up ;
Star Wars Episode V The Empire Strikes Back 1980 720p DTS-HD-MA 5.1 Harmys Despecialized Edition v2 0
With the following description ;
This is a reconstruction of the 1980 theatrical version of The Empire Strikes Back. The original shots were painstakingly restored using various sources (listed below) and the film received an extensive shot by shot colour correction.
The remastered version (v2.0) represents a significant improvement in picture quality over the earlier 1.0 version due to the use of better encoding and higher quality sources and replacing many of the despecialized shots with higher quality ones.
A gallery showing all the changes can be found here:

The MKV version contains a large number of audio tracks, including the latest versions of the preservations of the original audio mixes in DTS-HD MA, three different commentary tracks, an isolated score and dubbing tracks in 13 different languages.

(sourced from the 1993 Definitive Edition Laser Disc Master - upscale by Mattman Omega)
3) Adywan's THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK 1997 Special Edition Reconstruction 1080p MKV (HDTV source)
4) The Empire Strikes Back 1997 Special Edition ("TB" DTV capture)
5) Team Negative1 35mm print scan
6) Custom mattes, 35mm film cell scans etc.
7) Adywan's THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK 1980 Theatrical Reconstruction NTSC DVD
8) Puggo Strikes Back (16mm print transfer)
So i finally found one of these reworks - will be really interesting to see how it looks.
