I'd bet a lot that the OT is remastered but unchanged, so the Han Shoots First Collection will probably be coming to you.

I'm not sure if the cost of remastering the original versions vs. sales would warrant such a decision.
You're talking at least $50 million as well as a bunch of cross-editing (no one wants to see the outlines around Tie Fighters, X Wings, etc.) into a seamless transition.
Also, you have to keep in mind that 20 years has passed since the release of the Anniversary Editions, so there's a whole generation of people that have only seen those versions.
UnderEJ could certainly shed some insight into the Post Production process but I just don't think it's a financially viable move at this point in time.
