Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Before Toy Story, there was Tin Toy. John Lasseter and the creative geniuses at Pixar made landmark short films that paved the way for their feature-length films. This dandy collection contains their five shorts made between 1984 and 1989. The only throwaway is The Adventures of André & Wally B., the earliest short, barely two minutes long. The famous hopping lamp (now part of the company's logo) appears in Luxo Jr. and illustrates how Pixar's sense of humor is so crucial to its success. There is real personality here, as a "father" lamp is surprised by his "son." That essence comes to life in the Oscar-winning Tin Toy. This film about a baby playing with a wind-up doll is a blueprint for Toy Story as is Knickknack, a delightful and very funny short about a snowman who will do anything to get out of his snow globe. An essential for any fan of computer animation. --Doug Thomas

I am an ex-Director of Photography from the USA, now retired, who knew John Lasseter personally from his very beginings at ACM-SIGGRAPH's annual convention in Boston during the early 1980's. Since then I became interested in computer graphics and because I had moved to Paris I became the co-founder and Vice-President of the Local Group of SIGGRAPH in France. When I quit making films, I devoted myself to what I felt would be the future of cinema-making (computer graphics). In 1988, we held our first ... Read More

This brilliant collection of Pixar shorts is still sadly unavailable on DVD but there is hope as Pixar is slowly releasing one short with each of it's Disney DVD releases. While The Adventures Of Andre & Wally B. and Red's Dream have yet to put in an appearance, Tin Toy is on Toy Story, Luxo Jr. on Toy Story 2, and Knick Knack (my favorite!!!) on Finding Nemo (check it out with and without commentary). What about A Bug's Life you might ask? It contains Geri's Game which, while not on this tape, ... Read More

These shorts are very funny and entertaining! My computer teacher showed this video to use in school. Knickknack is a total riot! Pixar sets excellent moods for their pieces and it is amazing how much life they can put into normally inanimate objects. If you want to see what is on this tape, check out Pixar's official website and you can watch their shorts online in their "short films" section and read little snippets of behind-the-scenes info.

We used to have a copy of this tape in our computer illustration shop down at Ft. Huachuca, AZ. We used to show it to people touring our facility. When I ETSed from there, I forgot to make a copy of it before I left. Big mistake. After Toy Story came out, I would often tell people about this amazing video (especially Knick Knack, my personal favorite). Imagine my relief when this tape was released commercially as Tiny Toy Stories. While I'm glad that I have it on tape, it's a shame that it's not available ... Read More
