Great Easter special! Now on DVD!!!

This was a great Easter TV special. I loved watching this as a kid. I don't remember much (at all, so if I am wrong please forgive me), but from what I remember it was great.

A young boy named Peter is the main character. An evil tin man named Tin Whiskers (I think) somehow buys the whole town and re-names everything after tin and metal. Peter must save the town/Easter(?). He goes into the woods and meets Mother Nature and she helps him in some way. I do not remember the end, but I would not give it away anyways.

Overall, it was a very cute holiday special. Hopefully this will be released in the future so I can enjoy it every year. Released March 2007.
