DVD Transfer 100 is a transfer of the 1985 Christian youth musical "Hi-Tops". The musical (written by Ernie and Debby {Kerner} Rettino; who had already experienced success with the Psalty the Singing Songbook series by this time) focuses on a high-school where several students are forced to deal with various aspects of peer pressure. In Heaven, Gabriel sends three angels to study this phenomenon first hand; while Lucifer attempts to ensnare souls to his side. During all this, a group called Hi-Tops is searching for additional members.

The musical is probably remembered for being the source of the first sighting of a 16-year-old Crystal Lewis.
