It's funny, Miami Connection was the first thing I thought of when New York Ninja was announced. Granted, while NYN had the benefit of actually still having existing negatives (which still makes me scratch my head as to why VS didn't do a 4K), it was never a finished film, which was even more daunting than MC. In a weird way, it kinda links the two films together... well, that and 80s ninjas in America, lol.

Overall, I'm intrigued to see how the interpositive looks, as this seems similar to the Beastmaster scenario. Obviously it'll be night and day compared to the release print master, though I'll be keeping my old Drafthouse blu for the "grindhouse vibe".
