These videos will be available at retail and at the 4Kids Entertainment Home Video Web site (www.4KidsHomeVideo.com).

The CABBAGE PATCH KIDS are starring in their third original home video release. Shot on 35mm film, The Clubhouse brings the "kids" to life through stop motion animation. In the home video, the junkyard gang is in for a big surprise when they challenge "The Girls" to a clubhouse building competition - and get more than they bargained for! Included are four bonus music tracks.

The TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES home video continues the action-packed adventures of the sewer-dwelling Turtles with four more exciting episodes from the all-new TMNT series, now in its second season on the FOX BOX, 4Kids Entertainment's Saturday morning four-hour programming block. The all-new TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES series features the same cool characters, stunning ninja action and irreverent humor that sparked TMNT mania more than a dozen years ago, but updated and enhanced with an edgier, tougher look and feel.

YU-GI-OH!: Mime Control and Double Duel each feature five episodes from the second season of the hit television series airing on Kids' WB! Yugi returns with some new cards up his sleeve, ready to take on ancient monsters that are bigger and badder than ever before.

A Super Sonic Hero and The Chaos Factor are the first two volumes of the all-new SONIC X series, which airs on the FOX BOX. The all-new series features Sonic, the speedy blue hedgehog who's a video game superstar.

The ULTRAMAN TIGA home video features 13 episodes of the original Japanese television series with English subtitles in the third of four volumes to be released on home video. Experience all the excitement as powerful new monsters threaten mankind, whose advanced weapons and futuristic technology are useless against these mega-creatures. Will Ultraman Tiga transform from his secret identity in time to save the day?
