I just watched the puppetoon movie and was bummed that my favorite from
my childhood was not there: Bravo, Mr. Strauss.
This is where the screwball army invades the town and the statue of
Strauss comes to live and leads the army a-la the pied piper to
destruction in the swamp.
I have not been able to find it anywere, DVD, VHS, torrent, or 16mm.
Any help out there?

I've never actually seen this movie, but I have heard of it from a
stop motion animator friend of mine.

Here is what I found on the animator's site:

he Puppetoon Movie (1987) (1:20) (IVE Entertainment)
Out-of-print tribute to Pal, hosted by Gumby! Includes excellent
prints of Sleeping Beauty, Tulips Shall Grow, Together in the Weather,
John Henry and the Inky-Poo, Philips Cavalcade, Jasper in a Jam, and
Tubby the Tuba, and excellent FRAGMENTS of The Big Broadcast of '38,
The Little Broadcast, Hoola Boola, and Southsea Sweethearts.
Look around... this is fairly easy to find for rental in the
"Children's section" of video stores. Gumby and Tubby the Tuba
dominate the cover.
Available on VHS and laserdisc from Anchor Bay Entertainment: 800
786-8777 ext. 4076.

Good luck! I'll see if I can find a copy somewhere!

Thanks but the Puppetoon Movie does not have Bravo, Mr. Strauss. It has
Mr. Strauss Takes a Walk. The listing is mislabeled. They corrected
this on the expanded edition, which I have. {sigh} Thanks for looking
though.
