Walt Disney Video has released Pixar's early animations in "Tiny Toy Stories" a twenty minute video with 5 cartoons.
The collection
includes The Adventures of Andre and Wally B., Luxo Jr. (1986 Oscar nomination, Best Animated Short Film),
Red's Dream, Tin Toy (1988 Academy Award-winner, Best Animated Film) and Knick Knack.
- In Tiny Toy Stories, there is a wall clock with Wally (assuming he's not Andre B. :) similar to the Mickey Mouse wall clocks in Red's Dream. It's in the upper left quadrant at one of the very beginning scenes.

- The Tiny Toon Adventure script writer Sheri Stoner was used as the model for Ariel.
REPORTED:Internet Movie Database
"The Tiny Toon Adventure script writer Sheri Stoner was used as the model for Ariel." In the Tiny Toons video movie, "How I Spent My Summer Vacation", co-written by Stoner, there is a Little Mermaid reference. When Babs Bunny falls into the river, she sees a group of fish, a crab and a red haired young mermaid who sing "Beneath the ocean, beneath the ocean/We cause big commotion beneath the ocean." to which Babs replys "Oops, wrong cartoon."
CONFIRMED: Jonathan 10 MAR 97
Sheri Stoner, who worked on "Stephen Spielburg presents Tiny Toon Adventures" was the model for Ariel. In the credits of each Tiny Toons episode, there is a hidden joke. One was "Model for Mermaid: Sheri Stoner." That must be a reference. Another episode had a very close parody of "Kiss the Girl" with Babs Bunny as Ariel. I think the song in the back was "It's in his Kiss."
