Paddington Bear - 'Collector's Edition' Combines '70s Show and '90s Show on DVD!
Posted by David Lambert – 9/29/2014
3-disc set from Mill Creek
will be out in late November, a month before the new film hits theaters!
Back in 2011, we told you how
Mill Creek Entertainment was releasing a couple of DVD sets with the original
1975 stop-motion animated series of Paddington Bear. We also reminding you at
the time how the cartoon version of The Adventures of Paddington Bear, which
aired in the '90s, had already been on DVD since 2002. Now, with the new
Paddington motion picture coming to theaters on Christmas Day 2014, the folks
at Mill Creek are putting together a special new release of Paddington Bear -
Collector's Edition, with both TV shows together!
Here's the studio
description:
Everyone s Favorite Curious
and Cuddly Bear! Based off the acclaimed books by Michael Bond, Paddington Bear
has captured the imaginations and hearts of young and old around the world for
generations. Dressed in his characteristic blue duffle coat and oversized hat,
the helpful and cuddlesome Paddington has a gift of putting his paws where he
shouldn’t, creating hours of hilariously sticky situations!
A stow-away from darkest
Peru, Paddington eventually finds himself alone in Paddington Station, a tag
around his neck reading: Please look after this bear. Thank you. When the Brown
family takes him home, they get a lot more than they bargained for. This cuddly
DVD collection features all 56 episodes and all three-half hour specials of the
original stop-motion production along with 13 episodes of the animated series
The Adventures of Paddington Bear.
The 3-DVD set will cost just
$14.98 SRP, and is available in stores on November 25th...giving you a full month
to enjoy these shows with your kids before the new film hits the box office. Here's
a look at the package art.
Interesting they put a couple family members of the cover along with Mr. Gruber, but there's no angry Mr. Curry! That's a shame they didn't stick him somewhere on there.
