A new bunch of classic Disney stuff due out in July, according to Deep Discount DVD, including that dog-lover's favorite The Ugly Dachshund and one on my want list, The Three Lives of Thomasina, which features a wonderful performance from Patrick McGoohan...heck, the entire cast is superb.

So, speaking of McGoohan, I ask again: where's The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh?

Later:

This may be a case of "ask and ye shall receive" for once--but I have reservations. Amazon.com says Dr. Syn, Alias the Scarecrow is due out in August. There's a problem, though. There's the three-part Wonderful World of Color Dr. Syn story, which was originally titled Scarecrow of Romney Marsh. The total running time on this story was somewhere between 120 minutes and 135 minutes (a note on the IMDb says the running time was 129 minutes). There was also a theatrical version, titled Dr. Syn, Alias the Scarecrow, that was released at 98 minutes.

So the question now is, are we getting the full version or the edited version?
