Toy Story has been added now:

Toy Story 1 (Special Edition) (ORing) DVD Sell 19 May 10
Toy Story 1 (Special Edition) - Blu-Ray

Still it IS strange that Dumbo is a no-show, given that it is being released in the UK next month as well. I can't help but notice April is still a blank slate for the WDSHE website.

Also, what about A Bug's Life, dammit? Why is there no consistency in international releases? I get the feeling Disney just throw darts at a board to determine international release dates for each title.

I really wouldn't be suprised if that were the case considering oflc.gov.au had classified Mary Poppins 45th Anniversary Edition meaning it'll more than likely be re-released pretty darn soon and without an excuse for a blu-ray transfer it seems.

Good news! BTW - What is our home video trade magazine? I usually just go off BVHE.com.au (I wish I could re-design that site...)

Hey everyone...

Sanity listed TinkerBell and the Great Fairy Rescue to be released on September 15 on BluRay and standard DVD, and also lists Beauty and the Beast Diamond Edition for October 13, so hopefully confirming sambadude.

And not completely related to Disney, but still closely related Ezy DVD listed that Ponyo will be released on BluRay and a 2 Disc Special Edition on June 30.

I'm not too sure if the information is reliable but it sounds pretty legitimate.

Excellent news, Sambadude! Really looking forward to the 'modern classics' coming to Blu-ray.

For something almost around the same time, we've just posted our Region B Toy Story Blu-ray review:
