This is truly stunning. Just to be able to copy the style and spirit of the originals is a tour de force, but creating the transitions and flow was just incredible.

My only regret is that I have but one vote to give for this video.

That was quite awesome... Looks like regular animation though, I find it hard to believe it's clay...

Yes, it's really clay. It won an Oscar for Best Animated Short in 1993:
