The first Disney movie to be released on VHS was Dumbo, back in 1981. The final film to make it on to video tape was Bambi in 2006, since then the animation giant has only released films onto DVD and streaming platforms.

Despite Disney not releasing a movie on video for more than 12 years, the nostalgia around VHS tapes is strong. We all remember the days of going to Blockbuster for rentals, spending hours rewinding the tape and screaming at our siblings for taping over precious recordings.
