his invention survived and is now creating food-animals, or "foodimals!" Now, Flint and his friends must embark on a
dangerously delicious mission to battle hungry tacodiles, shrimpanzees,

Feiss. The first all-new mini-movie, “Attack of the 50-Foot Gummi Bear,” finds Steve
chasing a mischievous gummi that misused one of Flint’s inventions to grow into
a 50-foot beast. In the second never-before-seen mini-movie, “Steve’s First
Bath,” Flint must quickly alter his plans for a romantic date with Sam after
his monkey-cleaning invention goes awry. Both Combo Packs come with two
additional, previously released mini-movies, “Super Manny” and “Earl Scouts,”
along with strawberry-scented scratch ‘n sniff packaging.
The Combo Packs and DVD are also stuffed with filmmaker commentary, deleted scenes and seven behind-the-scenes featurettes, including candid interviews with the animators and voice talent, and a look at the stunning end credits and all-new, making-of-the-music video from fan-favorite Cody Simpson.
