September 14, 2005 - Disney has just released the understated cover artwork from November 8th's Volume 1 box sets of "DuckTales" and "Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers". The box fronts reveal that each 3-disc set will contain the first 27 episodes of the late '80s/early '90s television cartoons. There is still no word on any special features, but each animated set will carry an SRP of just $34.99.

I doubt I'll be picking up either of these sets up, but the Rescue Rangers Theme song will always be a personal favorite of mine.

Sweet. It'll be really killer when Darkwing Duck, Goof Troop, Gummi Bears, and TaleSpin get the same treatment.

Nice. Yeah, nostalgia overload.
I wouldn't pick these two up any time soon, but I sure as hell would buy an Animaniacs boxed set as soon as it hit the shelves.

My birth month is November to and there's a crapload of stuff I need to buy, now for sure I'm going to be picking up Ducktales, one of the best shows on Disney by far, now if I could get Recess on DVD, then I'd be a happy man.

Oh, and Gargoyles Season 2 comes out Decmeber 6th.

Pretty cool that these classics are getting a release on DVD. Hopefully other childhood classics are coming soon.

Ducktales is a sure buy! Such an awesome show.

AlphakirA

09-17-2005, 12:36 AM

EH! How are there so little Ducktales fans here? Damn all of you. Thanks however for the info,I'll be preordering both along with Thundercats Vol 2 immediately!

09-17-2005, 01:06 AM

I loved both of these shows, but I can only afford one. WHICH TO BUY???

I'm going to stroke it. YOUR ARMS ARE BROKEN!

Amen. DuckTales is a definite buy for me as well. *prays for Gummi Bears*

Wow..sooo happy about these. I bet they'll release the rest of these types of cartoons if these 2 do well.

Tale spin would really kick ass!

Unfortunately, rumor has it that the Ducktales will not contain the first 5 episodes. This was the 5 parter where they were looking for the treasure of the Golden Sun, the high point of the entire series. Hopefully they will release it seperately but since they are releasing the episodes in order it should be included.

KingDox

09-18-2005, 05:29 PM

It's great to have these on dvd finally. I hope they eventually get the entire Disney Afternoon on dvd. I can't wait for dark wing duck. Also I hope these cartoons hold up better then the cartoons from the 80's.

09-18-2005, 06:12 PM

Kick ass! I've been waiting for Duck Tales and the Duck Tales movie forever! And of course, Darkwing Duck as well. ;)

Heck, I would get these shows just for my future kids (don't have any yet). At least I know what kind of shows these are, and they're at least 10 times better than the garbage thats on TV for kids these days.

Did anyone like Tiny Toons? I wonder if that will ever come out on DVD.

This is GREAT news.

I want Talespin on DVD, too, dammit!

The first five Ducktales episodes were better than just about any animated Disney movie ever made.

09-18-2005, 08:56 PM

DuckTales and Rescue Rangers are both exciting. I'll have to find some place to dig up the money from. I've gotta say, I'm looking forward to Count Duckula in October even more.

09-18-2005, 09:30 PM

Since there was some interest here I thought I'd bump to mention I bought Ducktales season one at spun.com with the 33% off coupon for 17.32. The coupon code is ISC409OF.

It sure is disappointing they didn't include the pilot series of episodes for either series, I'm afraid that's a dealbreaker for me.

http://tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=3913 (http://tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=3913)lists the rumored episode order for Ducktales where they mention the pilot series of episodes is not included, then http://tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=4381 is where they confirm the list.

http://tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=4380 (http://tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=4380)also confirms that the pilot series of episodes for rescue rangers is not included on the set.

The icing on the cake to that bit of shafting is there are absolutely zero special features on either disc (which I would probably be willing to forgive if they had included the pilot on both sets.).

simpsonps121

Also, that code for spun.com does not work.

Yes, that is true. The first 5 episodes were the "movie."

Wow - Did not realize there were so many disney fans.
In my book:
1. Tale Spin
2. Ducktales
3. Dark Wing Duck
4. Rescue Ranger
5. Everything else.

1.Ducktales
2.Tale Spin
3.Darkwing Duck
4.Rescue Rangers

hell ya I'm a fan, I remember watching these in the morning when I was a kid, that and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and He-man.

Picked up Rescue Rangers yesterday. DuckTales I'll get Friday.

Ah, cool! ^_^ Fellow fans of the Disney Afternoon.

Rescue Rangers was always my favorite, followed by TaleSpin. Don't really remember much about Darkwing Duck and DuckTales--except I liked them alot.
"I am the terror that flaps in the night, I am the <insert 100 different weird things that annoy people>, I... AM DARKWING DUCK!" I vaguely remember going as Darkwing duck for halloween, think it was 2nd or 3rd grade.

the lack of the city of gold is the deal killer with me, but I look forward to gargoyles, maybe count duckula, finally releasing the tick animated on dvd, and batman beyond. Its sad cause I have most of the episodes of some of those shows through certain means, but I will prob still buy them anyway.

Tell me about it.

Magic and mystery are part of their history
Along with the secret of Gummi berry juice!
Their legend is growing
They take pride in knowing
They fight for what's right
In whatever they do!

Damn I have a tape of a lot of the episodes, but a full DVD set would just kick so much ass.

BTW, anyone know if they are going to release the first episodes of DuckTales separately or something? Those are really, really great episodes and it would be sad to not have access to them, at least eventually.

I'm assuming, since it is Disney after all, that they held them off the set to screw us out of $15-20 down the line for the pilot episodes on their own discs with probably...*looks into crystal ball* no special features. Why they didn't release the pilot episodes FIRST as a litmus test to whether people were interested in purchasing volume sets is what is truly puzzling.

Sweet. It'll be really killer when Darkwing Duck, Goof Troop, Gummi Bears, and TaleSpin get the same treatment.

I need this!

What's a shame is Tale Spin and Darkwing Duck also opened with movies so unless their is a large backlash about the lack of them on the Ducktales and Rescue Rangers sets, they probably will get the same treatment, and will be missing them.

Darkwing's pilot was a two-parter, though, and not a five-parter like DuckTales and Rescue Rangers.

I picked up Ducktales... pretty poor transfer, but still great to see on TV again.

Is anyone else in love with the covers? So vibrant and simple...
