1. The transfer for this release is coming from a different party, which has to be Medusa as they put together the Director's Cut. This would surprise me, though, as I would have expected it to surface in Italy first.

2. This would be an upscaled release. Can you confirm that the transfer will be in native 1080p?

I haven't seen the transfer personally (I am not related to the publisher, just have a friend who works for them). The publisher says transfer is in native 1080p and they got the HD master from Italy.
