Finding B3 for me was easy. The only hard part for me was finding out it existed. Turns out me and my cousin went to Target. We were about to buy "the incredibles" then strangely enough my cousin ended up coming back with Balto 3. I just got B3 like 2 weeks ago and there was only one so im guessing i was lucky.

I have an AWESOME announcement!
I bought my copy of Balto on DVD at wal-mart!
It was just before I came to Japan.
The manager said that walmart is going to start carrying it in stock, because they got so many calls asking for it. (200 in the last month)
MAYBE SOMEONE WILL GET THE MESSAGE!
BALTO IS NOT DEAD, IT'S ALIVE MORE THAN EVER BEFORE, THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT THE MARKETING SUCKS!
.................
Sorry, I kind of went off on a rant there.
Anyway, if Universal plays their cards right, they might be able to dig Balto out f the ditch they've animated him into.
What they need to do, is release a special edition, like they did with Star Wars. The three movies, and a special features disk.
I'd buy that, would you?
I'm sure most of us would.
Universal just needs to realize what a success the story is, fix the stupid story errors (like focusing the story on... oh I don't know THE DOGS!)
and pick this thing up.
They've got a multitude of inspirations.
Almost all of the FanFics on this site would make good animated films.
(Well, lately, mine have been getting more violent and the subject matter a little more... uh... adult like, so some of mine wouldn't, but I know Cyberwulfe's would, and all the other's too.) (Note to reader: I know Cyberwulfe's work is not on this site, but it's really good stuff.)
I think Universal needs to change the face of Balto. (And no, I don't mean he needs to get plastic surgery lol!)
Think about this...
How cool would it be to see Balto computer animated, like Toy Story?
That would be AWESOME!
I think that, combined with targeting a little wider audience, (by that I mean age-wise.) and some decent marketing, would elevate Balto up to the top, where it should be.
I don't know if anyone is listening, but if you are, heed these words.
Done right, I think Balto could outsell "Titanic".
I do, it's a great story, that everyone (to some degree) will love.
I've never seen anyone watch the movie and come away with the same attitude to it as the began.
Maybe somewhere out there, someone is listening, and action will be taken.
If there is anyone out there let me close with this statement...
I believe I speak for all of us fans, when I say....
WE WANT MORE BALTO!!!!!!
.... but please... make it good.

I would look on Ebay or Google to see where it is......and it also depends on where you live so you don't exactly won't find it right off the bat and also you can record it on the holidays when it comes on but it is rare but sometimes it is on :shock:

Ebay's been pretty good to me so far, I've gotten a few pieces of computer equipment with not so much as a problem. My friend got his truck on ebay (1995 Ford F-150 4x4 I believe). I only recommend that if you live in the same state and have a friend willing to drive you there to pick it up. I know a dealers are also selling on ebay now as well.

As far as Balto, I saw a copy at Suncoast the other day. Suncoast is pricey but you can usually find everything there. Also Best Buy had a pretty good selection of all three movies (I am assuming you're in the US).

If you go to a video retailer and they don't have it, chances are they can special order it for you if you ask them nicely. :)

You can find it at e-bay but it might not be the best quality because sometimes there used movies, well you can also find it in amason.com and maybe a wallmart site.

That's exactly what the film need in priority :)
In France now, I can find Balto 3 fairly easily, but still at full price (20€) . Balto 1 and 2 are much rare though, but still findable at the regular price of 10€.
