Why Collectors Love It:

The Rescuers Down Under is one of the most underrated films in the Disney Renaissance — the first Disney sequel, the first fully digital ink-and-paint production, and somehow still criminally overlooked at the box office in 1990. This 1993 Grolier edition captures the film's Australian outback adventure in full-color illustrated form, with the Danish origin (Bernard og Bianca S.O.S. fra Australien) adding a publishing footnote that only shows up on the copyright page. Wilbur crash-landing at Mugwomp Flats airport and announcing "I hurt myself!" is the kind of scene that lives rent-free in the heads of everyone who saw this movie as a kid.
