The Video Collection Childrens Promo-1985

[GeoNeilUK]

I think have that exact promo on some old Freedom Force video, a cartoon I've only ever seen on video.

[David315842]

@GeoNeilUK It was released on DVD in America by the now defunct BCI Eclipse label and is now out of print. It may get a re-release at some point by Classic Media or Mill Creek Entertainment.

OMG i sooo remember this before my He-man video

[weckar]

I never really enjoyed HB...

[Widgetas]

I love the way you included the copyright warning :D

Oh man... this featured on so many of the videos I had from when I was a kid.

I'm 4 again.

[Jamster8399]

Secret Squirrel sounded like the guy who originally voices Bugs Bunny (minus the Flatbush accent)

[travelsonic]

1:43 I didn't know they put Dick Dastardley and Muttley in their Flying Machines on tape, or did they?

[DisneyVideos2000]

I hear Mr. T was also on Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, is that true?

[roseynick]

haha! OMG! this used to be at the start of My Scooby Doo Video!!

[sjmiles]

I remember this on the feature length episode called: "Hey there, It's Yogi Bear".

Brings a chill down my spine seeing it now....

But There Is Intro With Mr.T From The A Time.

1:43

MUTTLEY! The hound who can find everything funny.

[Jonathan140]

My favourite part was the clip from the very first episode of The Flintstones (my favourite sitcom).

[sonicandrotor]

The Video Collection seemed to release old Cartoons from the 60's, 70's and 80's back in 1985!

[David315842]

@sonicandrotor Primareily Hanna Barbera cartoons as Worldvision Home Video released their titles through VCI at the time. Later HB had their own video label Hanna Barbera: Home Video, the n their shows were distributed by First Independent and then finally through Warner Bros. when HB and Turner got brought by them.

[sonicandrotor]

Did this Promo ever feature on any Get Along Gang or Wind in the Willows Tapes?

just asking out of Intrest?

[David315842]

Wind and the Willows possibly but I'm not sure. Since the Get Along Gang was co-distributed by the Video Collection and Karl Lorimar and DiC's Kideo Video, it's unlikely.

[David315842]

This promo was on quite a few 1986 Video Collection releases.

[allenjeremy]

This promo is on the video of Yogi's First Christmas which I bought back in 1986.

[dis0gree]

[silkwood88]

Secret Squirrel i think? :-)

[dis0gree]

[David315842]

@silkwood88 Yes it was.

[David315842]

@dis0gree Secret Squirrel.

[Asdffgcghdv898]

Lol the unstoppable Mr.T.

[redtaigobble]

i remember this intro and ad! the vid I has with it was Yogi's First Christmas. Thanx for bringing back old memories!

[antster1983]

Yep I remember it as well.

[jordanschepis]

Thomas The Tank Engine wasn't on the promo, but these UK Thomas The Tank Engine Videos were release by The Video Collection.

[mechaslasher]

yeah from 1986 - with different version logo - i still have the 1st 3 vids

[redtaigobble]

i no 2. I had a vid from that particular TTTE series. it didn't show the VC intro, just the copyright thing.

[pg2nd]

This was on practically every kids video i ever owned; awesome stuff.

[silkwood88]

This is probably my first memory you know...........i can't believe how young Mr 'Get some nuts' T looks!
