Nice. I have both already on separate DVDs. They really are good. I don't believe these 2 movies were ever put in the Disney Vault. We always had them in the Disney Store when I worked there.

Ooo, this is exciting! I was hoping to be able to get them before Disney decided to distance themselves from any historically contextual material. I just wish it WAS being released on Cinco de Mayo!

[tomserwin]

Awesome! The Three Caballeros was one of those classic Disney movies that helped shape my childhood. It goes right up there with Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland.

[renegade]

I am considering buying these because the stories and music in both are very good, classic.

I have never been to Baia, though.

I got it for my bday. I saw Saludos Amigos which was good. I have yet to watch 3C.
