Fans will soon get to journey back through time and space with C-3PO, R2-D2 and the adorable and resourceful Ewoks as they set out on adventures of their own in three new DVD double features. Available on DVD for the first time ever on November 23, 2004, each DVD includes two feature-length titles, which include The Haunted Village, Tales from the Endor Woods, Caravan of Courage, The Battle for Endor, The Pirates and the Prince, and Treasure of the Hidden Planet. The Ewoks and Droids animated features recount the adventures of these enduringly popular Star Wars characters before they appeared in the classic feature films. Caravan of Courage received an international theatrical release and was subsequently broadcast on U.S. television in 1984, followed by its sequel, The Battle for Endor, which aired in 1985. The set of three DVDs include:Star Wars Animated Adventures: Ewoks -- Two animated Ewok features recount the years before the Battle of Endor. Here Wicket is a young Ewok struggling to achieve maturity in his community. This leads to a series of adventures with his friends: Princess Kneessa heir to the chieftain, Latara the aspiring musician and Teebo the animal empath. Together, they help the adults protect the village from their enemies like Morag the Tulga Witch and their rival species, the Duloks. Star Wars Animated Adventures: Droids -- Two animated Droid features recount the adventures of C-3PO and R2-D2 before they met Luke Skywalker as they serve various masters over the years. As it turns out, their lives were no less hectic as they became involved in battles against gangsters, pirates and the Empire. Star Wars Ewok Adventures: Caravan of Courage and The Battle for Endor -- Two live-action features document the Towani family's adventures with the Ewoks. The Towani family is stranded on Endor after their shuttlecraft crashes on the forest moon. Separated after the crash, the children, Mace and Cindel, must gain the support and trust of the Ewoks in order to rescue their parents who have been captured by a giant monster, Gorax. The Ewoks and Towani children go on an adventure to rescue the captured family members. Upon return to the Ewok village, an army of foreign invaders attacks them. Cindel and an Ewok, Wicket, escape into the forest where they meet Teek and Noa, who like Cindel, also crashed with his Starcruiser on Endor. Together they must defeat the marauders.
