I am desperately searching for The Red Shoes. It would be much appreciated if you posted it.

@getyourkicks26 The Red Shoes is one of those elusive episodes, toonjet have had it on there listings and used to play it, as far as i know they were told to move it because of some copyright clam, why they chose The Red Shoes out of all the mel o toons is up for debate, I think it was to do with the vinyl copy, they may have the rights to the sound, no point in playing it with no sound. Toonjet will still have a copy,try getting it touch @ToonJet twiter / ToonJet.com

[spudme31]

@grobarUskoci I will try find out for you for you

[spudme31]

@grobarUskoci Was it a Mel-O-Toons production they dont seem to have it listed, they did base there cartoons on children's records from late 50's & 60'S, nearly all biblical themed. if its a different production team please let me know. i will dig for you. This is the people that carry a 3 party license for mel-o-toons ( Diva Video Access AG)
