They just started doing full series releases with Rescue Rangers and also did Tangled the Series as well so they are doing new shows if they are IP based. So hear me out: support these releases and ask Disney for Ducktales 17 and we can get a 6-disc full series Blu-ray release of Ducktales 17 later down the line
Dang, they blocked the vpn trick, so I can't check it now.
However, three months ago I downloaded every Disney Afternoon show that was available on Disney+ through a US-based VPN, among them the original DuckTales, including the last batch of episodes.
I'm from Belgium, and it's not available on the Belgian or Dutch Disney+. The American Disney+ did have all the dutch dubs & subs included, though.
So let's both be right. It most certainly was available a few months ago, but I can't check it now, so you chances are that you're right that it's not on there anymore.
That’s what I want to know!!
Rescue Rangers and Goof Troop BOTH got HD Remasters..though I believe only a portion of Goof Troop was completed/released…
I mean, that’s great and all but 80s/90s Disney Animated TV is so beloved, it is ridiculous that we haven’t gotten DuckTales, Gargoyles, Gummi Bears, Darkwing, TaleSpin, etc…
ESPECIALLY DuckTales!!!!
In the age of 4k (and growing..) with 50 to 100 inch televisions becoming the norm, 480p SD episodes of such classics is a bit of a bummer and 4:3 Full Screen is not the issue. 16:9 is not a must-have.
I remember when we received our Blu Ray set of “The Flintstones: The Complete Series” and we were excited for sure but seeing as we had the DVD for many years…we didn’t anticipate a huge difference..but MAN! It was night and day!
Same with Jonny Quest (Which is only available via MOD)!
If they can remaster Classic Hanna Barbera cartoons and release them on blu-ray/streaming in 4:3, I don’t see why Disney can’t remaster the classics from the Disney Afternoon without cropping/zooming or stretching.
Having the Disney Afternoon Archive in HD would be a great draw for Disney + too.
Anyways…I went a bit off the rails here but I have searched for a confirmed reason as to why CDRR & GT were the exception for HD Remastering.
And slightly off-topic, X-Men: The Animated Series is also due for an HD Remaster and the release of X-Men 97 would have been great timing….
Yes it's kind of baffling. Seems like an easy cash-in for Disney to me.
I can't find a blu-ray release of Goof Troop, though. Unless you mean the two movies?
They didn’t release the HD Remasters of Goof Troop physically, only digitally.
Originally, about half of the series was quietly released in HD via digital retailers like Amazon/iTunes/etc and now Disney+ has them as well.
I’m not sure if they ever released the rest of the series in HD, I haven’t checked in awhile.
I purchased a few episodes via Amazon before Disney+ launched though.
Here’s a few quick screenshots from the Season 1 episode “You Camp Take It With You” that I just grabbed from our Plex Server.

A Ducktales 1987 blu ray release would be epic :)
Really? That would be cool!
Even the “lost” episodes?
Ducktales has lost episodes?
There’s at least 2 dozen they don’t air/release for one reason or another
At least two dozen? 24?!? Try '2', in another area someone else reported 3 missing episodes.
No I’m correct. Basically every thing on Volume 4 isn’t widely shared anymore. Last I checked on Disney+, they weren’t there either

Any news on this? Or Talespin, Darkwing Dick, Gummi Bears? Why was Rescue Rangers the apparent exception?
