The first release of ANH didn't say Episode IV A New Hope in the crawl. Lookus has been tampering with the films since Day 1.

There's something clearly wrong between your ears friend. I'm just not sure if it's restricted to your eyeballs or what's behind them. I've seen all thee OT movies in their original runs (multiple times) and in their special edition releases (multiple times). In theater, on VHS, on laser disc, on DVD and on blu ray. I hope I've had to write this for the last time and it sinks in there somehow.
No kidding. You mention that like it's news to anyone. Most of the Star Wars mythos, including much back story was created AFTER THE FACT - any SW fan knows this.

So you did see it. I didn't read that until after I posted. What exactly is wrong with my ability to perceive the world? My lack of agreement with your recollections? I have yet to hear you invoke a direct recollection, other then the VHS which is not much. 99% of your argument has been aged props, old stills, and supposition that those who recall blue must be in the throes of some irrational bias.
But you still think it was brown. And we're just dumb. Whatever.

He sounds like he might be one of those guys who swore up and down that he saw Hobbie crashing his snowspeeder into Veers' AT-AT during Empire's original run too.

Because I was not blind? Because it was obviously brown in scenes you could tell weren't artificially making it seem blueish? I say "blueish" because in no scene does it look "blue" - Lando was wearing BLUE.
Do you guys think that in part of the color correction for the special editions that someone went in to change the coat from blue to brown in every scene? Limiting the true correction only to other parts of the scene while repainting only the coat? For what purpose?

No, what is wrong with your ability to read the thread? That's what I was referring to, because I've mentioned multiple times that I've seen all the movies in their original runs which you conveniently ignore every time you post. You also ignore the word of people involved in the production, official position of LF, lighting 101...
I'm not trying to convince you of anything except that I did see the original releases. I know the coat appeared blue in some scenes so I don't doubt you saw that either. You can have a very easy win with regards to these new SSC products. Skip Han or get to modding.

Yeah, and the rest of us were blind. And dumb. Don't forget our blinding stupidity.

Maybe I just have a hard time noticing that you've said something. All I heard was VHS Blu-Ray SE. That's why I asked.

Oh goodie.. Pixel Piper's at it again. 
Dude.. you make friends wherever you go.
The coat was definitely BRLRRUOOWWUEnue.

I didn't mention VHS on its own, nor SE once. They were always prefaced by the fact I watched all the originals theatrically. See, if you can only get part of a short sentence, why should anyone trust your perceptions as a 6 year old having watched ESB?

The funny thing is at the end of the day I don't really give a rat's a55 what color Sideshow used for the coat as long as the whole release is solid. What gets my goat a bit is the lame-duck arguments I see from some people that choose not to read nor comprehend anything else anyone says. Otherwise I don't really care for heated wastes of time.

Yeah, the figure looks pretty solid - agreed.
I stand by my colour match though.

Well pixelpiper, you're kind of a windbag, and it's rarely worth enduring a full post.
That said, I couldn't see how anyone could think the coat was brown and have seen the film in its theatrical runs. When I saw it, which was before I owned figures, the coat was blue. And I was 5. And your estimate of my memory skills is moot. I am aware of the quality of my recall. I know what I saw. You're pretty much whistling Dixie as far as I'm concerned.
But you are free to whistle what you like. The coat will still be blue.

After the people who think it's blue can "suck it"? After we're blind and stupid and illiterate? 
Bye. Enjoy your ignorance.

I really hope they change the color of Han's coat to blue...it was never ever brown. 
Blue and brown are pretty easy to tell apart.
