That's good to hear! Though I bet some hardcore people would argue that the correction isn't part of Walt's original vision :roll:

Okay, so I have a situation here. I tried printing the coupon on my lap top but it didn't actually print and the website says that I have already printed the coupon the number of times allowed (even though I switched to another account I have). Is there anyway I can still get the coupon? Because if I don't have it then I probably won't be able to upgrade my Platinum DVD. Any suggestions?

Didn't they already offer a poster reproduction with the Bambi Platinum Edition DVD? I remember something like that with the exact same poster being offered. I'll have to check my DVD inserts.

TheSequelOfDisney, if you can't figure something out, I'll send you a scan of my coupon.

The more I think about it the more I worry about the RKO logo appearing on future releases. Why would Disney make sure the Snow White, Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo, and Alice in Wonderland Blu-Rays all have their original title cards but not this one. It doesn't makes sense. Just like Disney replacing the blue castle opening on Beauty and the Beast.

So has the RKO title card for Bambi been seen since it's LaserDisc release? Also, are Bambi and Cinderella the only DACs to not have a DVD or Blu-Ray release with the original RKO title cards?

I set up another DMR account and I sent my info to my mom for her to print it out at home (she hasn't responded back yet, though). If you could, that would be great, you know just in case she can't print it :D

EDIT:

Don't worry about it, jpanimation. I called my mom and she printed it. Thanks for wanting to help though, it's appreciated :D

BTW, next to the word FREE, it has a small cross icon. Does that signify there is shipping?

I believe so. I'm getting a free Tinkerbell charm bracelet in the mail for entering the code from Tinkerbell and the Great Fairy Rescue but I was charged $2.95 for it to be shipped.

Most definitely. In my experience, the only things I've received for free from Disney are vacation planning DVDs, Mickey Mouse stickers, cups of water, napkins, and a shoe shine.

And it's not even a mini-poster! At least not that small anyway!

Saludos Amigos has the Buena Vista title card (both censored and uncensored), which is equally odd, considering the other package films, mastered and released around the same time, contain the original RKO cards.

It is much nicer, but so much for uniformity. As soon as I thought maybe we'd have a nice, complete set of "Diamond Book Editions" all lined up on the shelf. Ugh.

Does anyone know where I might be able to get one of those Sleeping Beauty sets? Since they aren't available on DMC anymore...

Umm... wow. The only Disney Diamond Edition to have one Blu-ray Disc and not two. Kind of makes it a little less special, ya know?

Where can I find info in this Bambi book edition? I tried checking the DMC site but nothing's mentioned.

Did you just search "Bambi"? It's called Bambi Diamond Edition Premium Package or something like that. It should be there...
