Changes: Letter Factory (video)

Revision as of 16:04, 19 October 2021

The Letter Factory is the first video in the LeapFrog series. It was released on December 9, 2003. A version was also made for Leapster, with some scenes deleted.

Synopsis

The Frog family visit The Letter Factory. While Leap and Lily prepare for Mr. Frog's special presentation, Tad visits Professor Quigley to learn his letters. Mr. Frog also gives Mr. Websley a tour. When Leap and Lily realize Mr. Frog told them they need to keep an eye on Tad, they start looking for him. They find him in the Z room. During the presentation, Tad sings a song about the letters from A to Z. Professor Quigley rewards Leap, Lily, and Tad with Alpha-Z shirts. Tad thanks Leap for the special presentation.

Differences form the Leapster version

Mr. Frog is shown while he is saying "Okay, let's get in the car. Who's ready to go?"

The Frog kids don't groan and Leap also doesn't point out the time is 6:00.

The title doesn't appear on the garage door.

The drive to the Factory is shorter.

The singing letters in the word "LETTER" are in their usual letter colors instead of all red.

Mrs. Frog doesn't sing "Mr. Websley is coming around to see our letters and hear their sounds."

Leap doesn't introduce Mr. Frog with the microphone.

Lily doesn't do a dance with the big letter O.

Leap drops the letters E, F, G, and H.

In the A segment, Professor Quigley takes the head of the monster suit off his head offscreen. He also doesn't clean it at all.

Professor Quigley and Tad are shown walking to the B room.

When each review song ends, a curtain closes.

Leap doesn't test the remote control spotlight in the A, B, C, and D review.

In the E segment, the ending where Professor Quigley cleans his hands before leaving is cut.

Professor Quigley doesn't wear a sunhat in the H segment.

Professor Quigley writes the letter H on his usual slate instead of on the steel tray.

In the scene where Mr. Frog double-checks the letters, only E, F, and G are seen on a conveyor belt.

Berfter has eyes and no wires.

The dot on the lowercase i from the I room door isn't missing.

In the I room, only Tad gets slimed.

In the K segment, Professor Quigley doesn't kick the wall and break into pieces.

The L letters don't sing the Blue Danube Waltz.

Lily doesn't get the letters, I, J, K, and L to do dance moves.

The letter M swaps to the N segment.

The N trainer's face stays angry for the whole time, implying that he's very rude.

When the letter O trainer says "The O says "o-o", as in Ox and Octopus", it is smiling instead of frowning.

The letter O swaps to the P segment.

The popcorn bag swaps to the M, N, O, and P review segment.

In the R segment, Professor Quigley and Tad aren't dirty by the racing R letters. Instead, they just simply pop out in smoke, all nice and clean.

In the T segment, Professor Quigley doesn't ask Tad if he knows that his name is like an English afternoon.

The smoke in the Q, R, S, and T review is absent.

In the V segment, the vase breaks.

In the X segment, two X letters appear before Professor Quigley turns on the X-ray lights.

In the Y segment, Professor Quigley doesn't wear a letter Y sweater.

When Leap and Lily look for Tad, Mr. Frog is shown when he is saying "And it is this strict training which makes the letters remarkably dependable". Also, letter Z's appear on the conveyor belt.

The Letter Z Lullaby isn't sung.

Mr. Frog doesn't ask Mrs. Frog where Leap and Lily are.

Tad doesn't shout "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls!" before the closing song.

Professor Quigley doesn't reward the Frog kids Alpha-Z shirts.

After the ending scene irises out, the Leapster automatically powers off.
