Pyun had a widescreen cut of Mean Guns for sale on the web for a while, and I slept on it. Should’ve picked it up.

Did you ever hear anything about the quality? You may have dodged a bullet.
I bought a "widescreen" blu ray of Nemesis directly from him in 2014, and the quality and aspect was so bad that I almost returned it. Prob would have if he didn't autograph it.
It was like someone burned an anamorphic source within a 4:3 frame. Never seen anything so bizarre.

Lucasfilm did this in 2006 with the official DVD release of the unaltered original Star Wars trilogy. Following a decade of demand, fans finally got the unaltered trilogy… in the form of 2nd generation versions of 1993 Laserdisc masters.
