When Disney first unveiled Tinker Bell as a standalone brand they committed to no less than three direct-to-video films starting with last fall's Tinker Bell on Blu-ray Disc and DVD. To this day my daughter still requests me to put on Tinker Bell multiple times per week.

Almost exactly a year later, Disney will roll out the sequel, Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure, also on Blu-ray Disc and DVD. A trailer for this release can be seen on current Disney Blu-ray titles like Bolt.

Disney's Blu-ray strategy has evolved since Tinker Bell was released which is reflected in Lost Treasure. Rather than including a digital copy, Disney will be packing in the entire DVD edition of the film.

Earlier today Disney announced Snow White on Blu-ray Disc would arrive in stores seven weeks before the DVD version. You can still pick up the DVD version early but only packaged with the Blu-ray combo pack.

The same might hold true for Lost Treasure. Right now the street date is set for October 27 for both Blu-ray and DVD but there's still an outside chance the Blu-ray version will move up if Disney continues to "tinker" with their strategy.

On the technical side, Lost Treasure will be offered in 1.78:1 1080p video and 5.1 48kHz/24-bit uncompressed audio.

Bonus features are scheudled to be identical between Blu-ray and DVD with the exception of BD-Live access on Blu-ray. The complete list is as follows.

• DVD version
• Deleted scenes with filmmaker introductions
• Fairy Bloopers
• Magical Guide to Pixie Hollow - explore during Autumn
• Pixie Preview - an exclusive animated vignette
• Pixie Hollow Comes to Florida - transforming Epcot Center into Pixie Hollow
• BD-Live
