Dr. Syn: The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh

For all of you baby boomers who watched Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Disney in the 60's this will not disappoint you. For those of you who remember this 3 part series, it is exactly the same and will bring you back to 1964 when you saw it the first time.
The Scarecrow and his crew of 2 masked companions are being sought by the Kings soldiers. Scarecrow and his men take from the greedy King of England who over taxes the countryside people and if they can's pay.....

It has a Robin Hood type style but yet so different. This is a limited edition to 39,500 and is a must to anyone who watched this show when they were growing up in the 60's. I myself bought 3 as gifts and 1 for me. I am very pleased with the quality of program on the DVDs.

I just read on another site that this was released on DVD......argh.....loved it as a kid, but can't afford the money that the sellers are asking..........are you listening Disney...BRING THIS BACK

The Disney studios did an excellent job of restoring these old TV shows (3 episodes) and the movie.
I had read others' inquiries about Disney's promises and delay in producing the DVD, so I wrote to Disney's video department directly. Told them they should go to Amazon.com to see the number of comments and fans waiting for this DVD. They responded with a very courteous email promising release of the DVD in November 2008. True to their word, I got an email in November announcing its arrival.
These are very entertaining programs. I loved them when they first appeared and they have not lost their luster even now that I'm an older adult. I liked the background information given by Walt Disney, and watching him brought back memories of Disney's Wonderful World of Color in days when it was one of the few TV programs in color!
The 2-disk set comes in its own special metal case with background notes and a certificate of authenticity. This would make an excellent Christmas gift for someone!

Since Disney has recalled and discontinued this item - out of spite? - I guess I won't be seeing it after all. What strange policies Disney has! This title was begged for for a decade, then given the deluxe treatment, then yanked 2 weeks after distribution. Wonder why?

One of the best series that Disney put out. This is a must for your collection! Highly recommend!
