Where's Waldo? The Magnificent Movie Spotlight Search

Waldo is back in the spotlight! If you can find him . . . Use a paper “spotlight searcher” as a magic flashlight to illuminate six magnificent movie scenes.


Follow Waldo and friends as they wander through film-studio sets and out on location in this sensational search-and-find adventure. With the help of the enclosed spotlight searcher, pan across a variety of movie-related scenes—from scary science fiction to monster fantasy, cozy costume drama to historical epic, sporting glory to a glittering awards ceremony—in search of Waldo, his supporting cast of pals, and more. And don’t miss the bonus features: games, mazes, and searches waiting to grip you on every page. All light-up magic is cleverly designed with paper (no batteries called for), and extra spotlight searchers are available online for printing. So, ready? Places everyone? Action!
