Originally released by Warner Home Video in September of last year, DIC Ent.’s first two animated Trollz movies will be rolled out on home video again on Aug. 14 as part of DIC’s multi-year North American DVD and digital format distribution deal with NCircle Ent. Best Friends for Life and Magic of the Five will be available at major mass market and specialty channels at the lowered price of $6.99
‘Building upon the popularity of the existing animated television series, we see great potential with the coveted tween girl market as we offer Trollz to consumers at a value price point,” comments Debbie Ries, senior VP and general manager of NCircle Ent. ‘Adding Trollz to our catalog further advances NCircle’s momentum and expands the roster of quality material we offer to retailers.’
Best Friends for Life and Magic of the Five pick up the adventures of Amethyst, Ruby, Topaz, Onyx and Sapphire, enchanted beings who like to shop, chat, go to school, meet guys and hang at the hair salon and coffee house when they’re not getting into trouble with magic spells and power-hungry gremlins. Each DVD will offer 67 minutes of animation, along with Spell Moment and music video bonus features. More information on the property can be found at www.trollz.com.
