Title: Mc Donalds VHS Promo ?
Post by: Littlefoot3897 on December 12, 2016, 06:20:47 PM: Just saw a listing of ebay with a Mc Donalds promo of the VHS movie and was wondering if anybody knew anything about it. It says not for resale or rental.

It was actually the movie itself before it was released on VHS in the US. The only real special thing about it is that it's just the movie itself. There are no previews you have to fast forward through just to get to the movie. A sort of novelty back then if you ask me.

So yeah! No lost footage on this thing. Sorry! -_-
