OR A BIRD WITH A HORN!.
The entire page is promoting Mighty Explorers, but all it says is that it's still in the works, the show is based on the beloved brand that became a pop culture phenomenon, the show is on air for 30 years (obviously) and that the feature film is in development. With the lack of actual info regarding the film I'm just going say that it's clear they are not going to reveal anything until the film is 100% or almost completed, or they ARE working on the entire film with the cast and stuff but don't want to release anything at the moment.
Page is pages 4-5.
I'm not sure if they shadow-released anything new about ME, as last month they had a trailer about ME but didn't feature it in the issue or it's news article, so idk if they did the same for this month.
Was searching for MSB behind-the-scenes work as Vimeo has behind-the-scenes stuff hosted there, and I found some of the storyboards for The Battle for Rock Mountain and the The Tale that Glaciers Tell! These are not the full storyboards, only some of them. I've been getting curious in the behind-the-scenes stuff of TMSBRA so it's cool that some 9 Story employees posted their behind-the-scenes work!
This video is the same as the last one but it's storyboard is longer. Starts at 9:53.
I hope we get more TMSBRA storyboards soon! Ik that they mostly won't be able to release all of the storyboards but it would be cool to see more!
So I recently came across some news—Warner Home Video discs pressed between 2006 and 2008 will be very prone to disc rot this year. If you have any of the Warner MSB DVDs and they came in a clamshell case (pressings from after 2005) instead of a paper Digipak (pressings from before 2005), check them in your players, consoles, or drives—because they might be oxidizing. If you can, you might want to back them up as ISOs if they still work, upgrade to the older Digipak versions, or use the NewVideo Group releases if you don’t tend to care about the small details the Warner DVDs have, like the funding or the special features, like I do (though NewVideo does have some perks, such as way more discs and episodes, Season 4, a rather “special” way to watch the Holiday Special [it’s the Fox Kids/qubo airing], and one extra episode that’s unrelated to the disc’s science topic).

I recently checked mine, and luckily, all of mine are in good shape just like my Season 4 2006, NewVideo, and N Circle discs. For reference, my copies of Space Adventures, Holiday Special, Bugs Bugs Bugs, and Human Body are in paper cases (those are the first pressings from 2002–05—they are less prone), while my copies of Creepy Crawly Fun, Super Sports Fun, and Catches a Wave are in clamshell cases (which have the post-2005 reissues, which are more prone). Though I do tend to alternate between Warner and NewVideo when I want to watch MSB on disc (or more recently I’ve found myself using the Eplis/Screen Education Region 3 discs when I’m on my PC, and those outshine both Warner and NVG picture-wise) so I’m still good either way.
Are yours working? Have you decided to switch to the older 2002–05 pressings, NewVideo, or another distribution company when it comes to the original series on DVD? Let us know!

We don't see Liz, Lilly, Wyatt and Benny in here, only Albie. But we do get to see Albie's Bus form here. Also apparently they can move their rear mirrors by themselves. Seems like they removed the back door for The Bus. Their design is way better than what we got in their promo image but they still look Cocomeon-ish and looks like a bus toy for babies.

Found all of these expect for 1 on ArtStation. All expect for one are concept art for the specials. Apparently, these concepts reveal that the special's started production in late 2018, which was the same year that S2 of RA released! They also used the flash rigs as placeholders for the characters. Makes me wonder if there's more RA concept art out there (especially concept art regarding The Bus)!
Another thing, does anyone know where this concept art comes from (this is the character designs from the first 2 seasons)?

A friendly challenge for fun!❤️ Come and write a dinosaur-themed story centered around Carlos and Wanda. 😄
I believe it's catchphrase should be Beep-Beep because when it responds to people that's what they typically respond with, not only that it's what the Bus says at the end of the title sequence. Does the Bus say "beep-beep-beep-beep-beep" in the books or something?
On this day, Christmas, in 1996, children all over America tuned into their PBS stations to take a wild ride with Dolly Parton to learn the importance of recycling—and how The Magic School Bus was produced!
(Also, this episode was the first one [and the only one in the 90s show] to premiere on a day that isn’t Saturday! In this case it was a Wednesday like today! It was also the final episode that Microsoft funded, marking the end of an era for The Magic School Bus.)
The next day, in 2020, Lights took the wheel with the Frizz and the class as they took a trip through the world’s time zones to make sure the Bus does its yearly software update.
Here’s to these Magic School Bus holiday traditions!
