'Santa's Magic Toy Bag'
(Paul Fusco / DVD / NR / (1983) 2014 / Legend Films)

Overview: Christmas is bustling, festive and exciting for Santa, Mrs. Claus and all the Elves at the North Pole. Sherman, an aspiring apprentice Elf, tries his best to fit in but can t seem to do anything right! He s worked in nearly every department at the North Pole and has triggered a series of disasters everywhere he goes. Santa tries to bolster Sherman s self-esteem by entrusting him with the special task of guarding his "MAGIC TOY BAG" until Christmas Eve.

DVD Verdict: For those not in the know, 'Santa's Magic Toy Bag' is a truly wonderful hidden gem of a Christmas special. I know many fellow 'Santa's Magic Toy Bag' fans always lament over the fact they can't find it anywhere or their VHS copies are so worn out from watching it over and over, they sadly can't enjoy it any more!

Well, luckily for us fans all over the globe, and just ready for this years Christmas watching, 'Santa's Magic Toy Bag' has been lovingly re-released by Legend Films! Indeed, finally being released on DVD for the first time since it originally aired on Showtime Network in 1983, parents will once again be able to enjoy this beloved holiday puppet special from Paul Fusco.

Fusco was the creator and producer of NBC's award-winning 'Alf' (1986-1990) and the writer/puppeteer/voice behind the iconic TV alien! Sherman had worked in nearly every department before he came to the mail room. After some letters to Santa were almost burned because Sherman had them put in the wrong place, he was asked to leave there too. He got a chance to help work in the kitchen with Mrs. Claus.

After that doesn't work out he finally gets to meet Santa who asks him if he is happy here. Sherman says that everything he does seems to go wrong, that he is trying but something seems to be missing. Santa entrusts him with the job of guarding Santa's Magic Toy Bag.

Family entertainment at it's finest, 'Santa's Magic Toy Bag' is something that has to be viewed with all the kids on the block. I would definitely recommend picking up a copy of this for your Holiday season, as I know you will not be unhappy thereafter. This is a Full Screen Presentation (1.37:1) enhanced for 16x9 TVs.
