:excellent:
The sequel art makes the Great Prince look like a Patronus. :D
Man has a dream
And that's the start
He follows his dream
With mind and heart
And when it becomes a reality
It's a dream come true
For you and me!

The Dutch cover art is much better, as they followed advice similar to mine. ;)

Bambi will be available separately, mark my word. For some reason, Disney UK loves to release "movie collections"; they're simply two or more films, otherwise available separately, shoved into cardboard slipcases. Originals and sequels are often paired together (as in this case), as are films with similar themes (Princess films, films made by Pixar); The Jungle Book and Pinocchio were even bundled together on account of them being Platinums!

Normally, though, these particular sets only stay on the market for a few weeks, and the separate editions of films are normally given higher priority in promotion and exposure.

An individual release for Bambi II on Blu-ray is now officially up for pre-order here in the Netherlands. Same with Germany and France. I wonder what the US will get, at this point there's no sign of the sequel. With only two months to go I doubt there will be any kind of release for the sequel, same thing happened with the Beauty and the Beast sequels, right?

Seems Disney has a different plan for the sequels.

i know its not really a huge deal but does anybody know if the original trailer will be on the new Diamond Edition? the trailers (especially the old ones) are interesting and Disney seems to be lacking them lately....

Wow, those look really classy! Our US cover isn't too bad, but I just wish they would put the title horizontal!

Those are just slipcovers though. The inside looks the same as the US.

I'm more affected by the fact they are calling Bambi 2 by Walt or so it seems since I don't understand French.

Actually, it says "Walt Disney's BAMBI" and "Disney's BAMBI II"

Plus, if I think what I think you're getting mixed up with, BK, I think that the Walt Disney is attached to "Les Croquis du chef d'œuvre", and not to either film (though covers that have surfaced on the net have suggested that Bambi will carry the "Walt Disney" label). "Les croquis du chef d'œuvre de Walt Disney" would translate as "Sketches from Walt Disney's masterpieces", hinting that art cards would be included in the Blu-Ray set.

Oh my god... that DVD cover is simply gorgeous!! :shock: :shock: Oh my god, it's just breathtaking!
And so is the Danish artwork ^

The US artwork wouldn't be so bad if the title was placed horizontally. But ah well.
I am so excited for this release! :D

Hate the French DVD artwork but the Blu-ray artwork is seriously tempting me to import and I don't even want Bambi :lol:

Wonderlicious...what advice...it looks like only the title has been changed? I think Bambi, Thumper, and Flower should be more centered, too. :twisted:

THE FIRST French cover is gorgeous! Why doesn't the US one look like that? Seriously. Is it proven big heads get children to buy it?

Yamiiguy...h-h-h-how do you hate the French art, at least the first image with Bambi sticking his head out from behind the leaves with the Great Prince and Friend Owl across from him? How do you like the Blu-ray art more...?

It just seems too clean and waxy, I love the idea of the sketch on the blu-ray cover.

As a lover of both french covers, the blu-ray art has a much classier look to it. It even has storyboard art.
