I have watched this battle countless times since the film came out. But for some reason while i noticed the cruiser sized corvette (how could one miss it) i never noticed the tiny almost Falcon sized one.
Tiny Corvette
That looks like a scaled-down CR90 to me.
Which version of RotJ was this, Gosric? I'm wondering if it was shoehorned into one of the "enchanced" (ptooey) cuts...
Ok just to set the record straight...not a single frame of the rotj space battle was changed/added/removed in any of the special editions, save for the ring explosion effect when the death star blows at the end.
There is also a nipple slip earlier in that movie.

A green one, to be specific
It is the original one. I just found it interesting because it is one more option for freighter sized ships in X Wing. A scaled down CR90 doesnt work without changing the external details. Internal structure would be unusable. But it is on screen and therefore canon as far as im concerned with a few modifications.

I would argue said nipple is actually gold.
Which leads me to 1 of 2 conclusions:
1. it was intentional
2. the make-up artists should be commended for being very thorough in their work.
Almost looks like part of the Nebulon-B, but looking closer you can see it's clearly a CR-90 profile. Someone mess up the scaling, is that corvette actually a Falcon in disguise, with its weird movie scaling issues?
Could be a mistake. They were running behind at that time. But then it could also be someone remembering the corvette was originally the Falcon (although not exactly and with a different bridge) and putting it in as a reference to that
The point in the battle:
It's a mistake, but I don't have video of the 1983 version available.

Wow it even looks like it is moving backwards!
Maybe it is a mistake. But it is on screen and therefore canon as far as im concerned *L*

I seem to recall there was at least one scene where a TIE was super imposed over the Falcon but was supposed to be behind it. I know the scene, though I don't have it with me.
So there was at least one scene that I recall. Of course I could be wrong.
