Fully restored more beautifully than ever from their original Technicolor negatives. All films never before released on any home video format*. These brilliant often jaw-dropping shorts are pure eye candy that altogether is a must have set! In the 1930s and 1940s, before George Pal made classic features like The Time Machine (1960) and The War of the Worlds (1953), he created dozens of stop-motion animated marvels called PUPPETOONS which utilized an astonishing Pal invention called the replacement figure or series puppet where thousands of wood puppets were created and replaced as required for each advancing frame of film. Pal’s big Idea transformed the flat cartoon into three-dimensional Puppetoons often praised as some of the great works of stop-motion animation ever conceived. In 1987, working with Mrs. George Pal, Leibovit made The Puppetoon Movie. In 2013 an acclaimed HD restoration Blu-ray of that film was re-released and now for the first time Leibovit presents added Puppetoon masterpieces sourced from their Original 35mm Technicolor Successive Exposure Negatives (SEN) or 35mm (IB) Imbibition Technicolor Nitrate Prints. Of special interest to fans are appearances by none other than Bugs Bunny and Superman, both at the height of their popularity when these shorts were made!
