Teddy Ruxpin on DVD!!
 

SOOOO I went to Walmart last night and was looking to see what was out.
I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw a face I vividly remember from my childhood and to my amazement it wasn't some lame remake it was the show I knew and loved as a child of the 80's!
Yes my friends for the first time ever the first 5 episodes of Teddy Ruxpin are on dvd!!!!!:o :o :o
The only thing toping this for me is the news Zarius posted about Galaxy High coming to dvd.
I do recommend this to anyone who loved this stuff as a kid.
BTW does anyone else besides me remember there being a live action Teddy Ruxpin show also?

Ruxpin was great, perfect rival to Gummi Bears at the time, good continuity also, had a long running arc, not sure if it wrapped up though...

Yes, Centurions needs a release so desperatly now, a lot of Ruby Spehres shows do, Spiral Zone, Chipomunks, Sky Raiders...

I agree and I hope they bring out the rest of the Ruxpin episodes it would be a shame for them to start and not finish it all..do you happen to know how many episodes there are Zarius? also by any chance do you know if Dark Wing Duck is out yet?
thanks

65 episodes, standard for syndication in the 1980s', Black Monday killed all chance of a second season (Teddy Ruxpin culled by a stock market crash...too funny)

I hated Teddy Ruxpin! I couldn't stand his frigging voice.

I guess I wasn't the only one...but I hated him because people kept using his name to make fun of mine. :dead:

Teddy Ruxpin........I hated that little bastard. I always thought he was going to come to life and suck out my soul. HATED him. Ewww.....bad childhood memories comming back.......NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!


*ahem*

Die Teddy Ruxpin.

Here's the link to see the intro to this cartoon many of you hate. Lol I remember it so well. it was on teletoon for a while when the channel first started. I was afraid to watch it again...

I used to watch it all the time when I was like 6.. I remember there was a live action movie before the cartoon started.. and there was this doll who talked with a tape inside of it..

Meh, what do they know? Anything overly cute and marketed to tell you stories at bed is bound to blind a few people. The show was well written.

lol and died on a black monday..

How many episodes did they release on dvd? Is the cover all kiddy looking?

While I don't remember the show I do remember commercials for the Teddy Ruxpin doll.

oh well not everyone will like everything..I agree with you Zarius I loved Teddy because I grew up with the talking dolls and amazingly sculpted action figures for its time....and I did watch the live movie and cartoon all the time because of it...I didn't remember the show that's why I was so happy yo buy it on dvd and now being 26 I can say seriously grow up to all those talking about his voice and what not it's an amazingly well written show even compaired to half the **** they feed us on adult tv today.
I happen to like Teddy Voice btw so what if it's cutsy he happens to be a very kind polite character..
I like grubby the most the bumbling side kicks are always my favorite characters for some reason...
I also really like the wolly watsit!
the Foobs are a bit annoying though that I will say ther ehigh pitched voices are way to much for me lol
I really like the bad guys on this show though they are CLASSIC!
So far 2 dvds are out I've only found one I'm ultra excited about this dvd realse almost as much as I am about Galaxy High!

You're sitting here telling people to grow up for having an opinion about a cartoon that you don't agree with? :lol: Perhaps taking your own advice is the best thing to do.

I'm just saying how could you even base an opinion on a show some of you have never even seen let alone remember.
if you look almost everyone is forming there opinions on the stupid toy.
the things I say are valid and I stand by them.
watch the show I'm telling you it's better then I remember it being and it actully made me laugh quite a few times.
I'm allowed to voice my fealings just as much as anyone else is especially when others are being rude about something I wanted to share and making uncalled for michael jackson jokes etc.
-Putrescent

Why are you making so many assumptions? I saw that show so many times as a kid it made me sick. Just because a couple people talked about the toy doesn't mean they've never seen the show. People aren't going to like everything you like. Deal with it. You don't need to tell everyone to "grow up".

I'm not making assumptions and I'm not even talking to you peanut so chill...
I'm talking to those who are acting immaturely about it.
I honestly don't give a rats ass if you do like it. I love it and thats all that matters to me hell no one in the world has to like it but me and I'd still be happy about it...it would be more fun to watch it with someone else but whatever I'm fine by watching TV myself it's not like going to the movies or anything.
and once again I didn't tell everyone to grow up I'm speaking to those acting like idiots over it....you know the people who think they are the Technodromes personal one liner comedians

Hmm...

I find this song rather kinky as for XXIth century standards... :|

But maybe it's just me.

lol explain sewer bull?
I thought it was kind of more sleepy drug induced sounding haha:lol:

hey everyone, lets stop arguing before the "al-mighty mods" close this thread..

say how many episodes are on each dvd? What was the live action mvoie? i seen it one in my life time. it was yearrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrS ago!

Why are you even still posting in here? You've said you hated it, no reason given, other than expressing how "ill" it makes you, you made your point, stay out of it.

Yeah, you got a point here. That sleepy gentle voice singing those rather odd lyrics... "Fly so high! Come dream with me tonight!" No surprise Teddy Ruxpin wasn't included in that famous anti-drug cartoon.

I think it was just my dirty mind that associated the phrase "Come dream with me tonight" gently sung like that with something else than just drugs... :|

sadly they only have 5 episodes each but the dvd's are way cheap I got mine at walmart for like 6.00 with tax here in los angeles so I'm sure it's cheaper other places cause as most know los angeles is like ultra expensive lol
so it's prolly like 2.00 in pittsburgh,p.a. where I'm from orignally hahah:lol:
and every episode is connected which is really rare for a show back then.
-Putrescent

guys, end this discussion now.

I have questions I want answered.. please..

haha yea it's funny you can make drug references to almost anything even if they don't intend it to be that way...it's funny I'm not even that knowledgeable of drus and what not and I still saw it course allot of my friends are...:roll:
hahaha that anti-drug video scared the crap out of me as a kid haha perhaps that's why I don't do drugs or it could just be I like having a mind to think with haha.
and it's all good Zarius so did you watch the episodes on the dvd yet..how do you feel about how poor the quality is? it's just as bad as other D.I.C. releases I've gotten like Heathcliff while the show is amazing on both acounts and brings back flood of memories I can't help but say I wish they would have taken the time to restore the film....you can tell at time they had been directly taken from video tapes when there like a flip in the picture or something or the color changes out of knowhere lol.
if you have the dvd's though I'd love to read your opinions.
lease do ask your questions I've been answering you :)
-Putrescent

I dont' have the DVD, but I'll probably end up downloading the full series if I can find it, a shame also that the quality is allegedly poor, given Visionaries and Bucky have both had excellent transfers...as did a few Mario and Gadget DVDS released on Region 2.

oh ok yea it's pretty bad Heathcliff I got as a valentines day gift from a friend and it was so odd half of the episodes are in amazing quility and the others are yellowish and choppy....those ones must not have been taken care of very well....but I'm not complaining I'm just happy to have all these things on dvd!
so are there complete box sets of Gadget? if so I haven't seen them in stores yet how odd...
I knew Mario was out same as Zelda but I have yet to see those in stores also they could just be so popular that they have become so hard to find like the count duckula box set is.
EDIT!: wait your talking about Bucky O' Hair right? IT'S ON DVD! agh! lol
also I asked before but not sure if you saw do you know if darkwing duck is out yet?
-Putrescent

Zarius was referring to DVD releases in Europe not America.

Gadget and Mario are'nt box sets here, just random episodes distributed by Jetix UK for a few cheap bucks, Jetix are'nt that well known for consistent releases of their properties in the format. Since they own the rights for European distribution, Mario and Gadget may never see releases here as box sets, even if they have managed to attain that stature in the states.

my bad thanks duke
damn that sucks big time...those shows deserve star treatment!

Are you done with that angle yet? Everyone is getting tired of it. If you don't stop there'll be trouble. I'm just warning you, dude.

your a mod don't you think you should just ignore such things...and not perhaps threaton members who are afraid of getting the thread closed because the actully have something they want to ask about said thread and not spam it with nonsence......:roll:

Putrescent... This ain't your fight.

I think you may be forgetting that Turtledude is the same guy that attacked you for "Stealing his idea for a thread". he's taking every chance he can to throw insults and attack the moderators here. I have serious doubts he was actually afraid of this thread being closed.

you know what I don't really care I don't know who these people really think they get off or whatever but seriously they need to do some spring cleaning...if you catch my drift....firstly it is...it's a thread I made to talk about teddy Ruxpin dvd's and the show gets bashed to high heaven bashing and joking are two differnt things...almost everyone who came in including Peanut who is a mod for whatever reason bashed it for no good reason at first untill later stated as he was yelling at me for telling people not to be so imature about things...
And sewer bull my friend I know it's not my fight it's no ones...it's a community to talk and chat not to fight with people and constantly be attacked....for every little word myself and many others say....
Allot of people are sick of it...but no one says anything...why because they are to scared of loosing the only tmnt Fandom place they know and love.
The Technodrome is awesome but the way many of the members some of whom are very helpful and knowledgeable get treated is not.
That's all I'm gonna say on that.
I'm way chill and not trying to start any fights...but please do not edit this.
we all need to step back for a moment and think about what's been going on around here for months perhaps even longer...and no I'm not telling you all what to do it's only a suggestion...shesh I'm not a jerk I only play one on tv :P *sigh* *shakes head*
That's fine by me I'm able to forgive and forget it's the way I was raised perhaps it makes me a fool eh?
Oh well.....I was because Peanut was obviously over steppin' his bounds as a mod with what he was saying on the first page...and am I not right in saying that the mods should be the ones setting the example for the people of these fine boards?
I mean sure what he said was rude but just as rude as other people have been in the past.
I mean you and I have even had a little fight in the past but I think you and I acted mature enough to over look that right?
And I know seriously not everyone gonna like everything the same as me... no one needs to drill it into my skull though...but once again I will say not liking something and bashing it to death are two different things...
Also as you can see I have a problem with no one else in the thread even those who bashed the show...I just got a bit upset of how it was bashed and said to grow up whats so wrong with that..it's my opinion on how they acted...I don't think I really was saying anything wrong...or am I not allowed to speak my emotions on here?

It IS still a constant bandwagon to really throw insults at shows that may seem "pre-school", or out of bad "memories" but thats' fine enough when you give sane reason, or if the show was genually "bad" so to speak.

People bash things seldomly with absolute no reason in most cases, and it gets on peoples' nerves to the extent these things happen. I'm still hot at every tool who thrashes Power Rangers, Pokemon, and Captain Planet for the same kind of attitudes they have either through a repressed form of homophobia or thorugh a "forest from trees" mentality, they only see the stereotype and not the message behind them, these people are'nt worth bothering with. they wont' see the good in the show, just the bad, so why bother?

Dude I didn't know you liked Captain Planet. I had like every Captain Planet toy when I was a kid. I was obsessed with that show!

Yeah, its' pretty popular still in the European regions, and presently airs early on Boomerang, it suffers from aboslutley no DVD Box set release, its' also IMPOSSIBLE to track down on Torrent sites. A shame, whilst the HB seasons are'nt as good as the DIC years, the DIC years are worthy of future consideration. This show may have been "preachy", but pppfft...at least it throws the truth in your face.

I think if Peanut contuines to overstep his abilites as a mod, someone shoudl take away and give the privilage to someone who doens't argue much.

Somone with the talent who loves tv and movies and doens't care ifhe hates or likes a show and wouldn'tburst out telling he hates it..

Krang, if your watching, allow me to be the next mod.. If a mod tells me I can't be one, then why the heck are you a mod. You don't want me to be a mod because ur afraid I might damage the board..

I want to be a mod of the tv and movies. I belong on that section..
