Trivia :

  • There are two dubbings of the featurettes. The first from 1966 through 1977, and the second from 1997. The second dub was created when The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh was dubbed into Finnish. The redub was also created to unify the featurettes together, dub the bridging segments, and to dub the ending.
  • The original dubbing of Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree split the roles between Reino Bäckman and Ritva Lehtelä.
  • Reino Bäckman is also the dubbing director of the first dubbing of Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree and Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day.
  • It's currently unknown if Reino Bäckman dubbed the same characters in Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day as he did in Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree. These characters are Rabbit, Eeyore, Owl, and Gopher. It's also unknown if Ritva Lehtelä dubbed Christopher Robin, Kanga, and Roo in Blustery Day as she did in Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree.
  • Of the first dubbings, only Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree is publicly available as it was released on vinyl LP record in 1966. In the early 1980s, only Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree and Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day were available on VHS/Beta/Video 2000 for rental only. Both of these cassettes were in English and had Finnish subtitles.
  • The other two first dubbings are in the Finnish and Swedish archives.
  • Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day was re-released in 1981 alongside a reissue of Dumbo. While the featurette was dubbed in Finnish, Dumbo was not.
  • The 1977 dub of Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too was Matti Ranin's first dubbing directing project for Disney. It premiered during the Finnish 1977 re-release of The Jungle Book. Ranin would later go on to direct the majority of the Disney Finnish dubbings in the 1980s through the early 1990s.
  • The 1997 dub reused Matti Ranin's lyrics from "The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers" from Ranin's dub of Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too.
  • Veikko Honkanen dubbed three characters in the 1997 dub. The characters being Eeyore, Gopher, and the Narrator. In addition to all of this, he also narrated the audiobook of the original Winnie the Pooh stories by A.A. Milne.
I would like to thank Leo Löfgren-Roberts for sending in his materials for the first dubbings for this entry. :)
