I communicated via someone at Yfe and they told me they're releasing the Secret Series in March, and this time the DVDs will have an English version! Unfortunately, they don't sell directly so it's a matter of finding someone who does... if anyone does, please tell me because I'm definitely going to buy them.
Like the Adventure series, it's not the accuracy but rather the fact that they're the closest I can come to watching these beloved tales come to life!
Oh, and I just ordered the Adventure series from EZYDVD in Australia- it seemed the cheapest option, about 45 USD to buy and ship.

Sounds interesting Naureen. Let us know if your DVDs arrive OK from Australia via EZYDVD.

Sure, and I will edit that to say it was 42USD total- plus I was able to pay with Paypal, which made the process much easier!

I have not seen the DVDs yet so I can't testify as to their quality yet, but they are definitely originals and they came super fast, so I'm fairly impressed with the company so far!

I don’t know if this series on YouTube has been discussed elsewhere, but I couldn’t find anything in this board on it. I just happened to come across it by accident.
