We’re just a week away from Disney’s direct-to-DVD release of Tinker Bell, the first in a line of features that builds Disney’s world of Fairies, centered around Peter Pan’s pixie pal, Tink.
Tinker Bell has been one of Disney's most important branding icons for over half a century, and is generally known as "a symbol of 'the magic of Disney." She has been featured in television commercials and program opening credits sprinkling pixie dust with her wand in order to shower a magical feeling over various other Disney personalities, though the 1953 animated version of Tinker Bell never actually used a wand. In the picture and the official Disney Character Archives, she is referred to as a pixie, and the term pixie dust is a description of the "fairy dust" she uses in the original book.
For now, Disney has been kind enough to send over several clips from the movie, and a few looks at some of the behind-the-scenes featurettes that will be on the DVD.
