Disney Treasues Wave 3 - Due 12/2/03 (1 Viewer)

Jerry Beck thinks the Wartime set won't be 'complete'?

I believe Commando Duck is one of the few NOT on the disc. They tried not to put any of the Japanese enemy episodes on it. I'm not sure of the final programming though.

Jerry also states that this short might be available "next time", which I interpret as being included on The Chronological Donald Volume 2.

If the Donald Duck set only goes up to 1941, then Commando Duck and all the other wartime Donald shorts won't appear until the second Donald collection.

 

[Michael St. Clair]

I misunderstood Jerry's post. Thanks for the insight...makes me feel a bit better.

But it was rumored that Donald's hilarious "Der Furher's Face" short will be on the forthcoming "wartime" set, then if so, it will be skipped in the Chronological volumes.

Personally, I cannot wait for full specs to be announced for all of this year's treasures, but I'm most curious about what the wartime set will contain. "Victory Through Air Power" is confirmed, but I hope such great shorts as "Reason and Emotion" and "Education for Death" are included. There really is a ton of war-related animation that was done by the Disney studio during WW2, some, I understand, less entertaining than you'd expect. But I hope this set is as complete as possible, unless, of course, we'll be getting a Volume 2...

Just so you know, the discs are starting to be listed by internet retailers. Pre-orders:

Amazon:
Walt Disney Treasures - Walt's Tomorrowland
Walt Disney Treasures - On the Front Lines
Walt Disney Treasures - Chronological Donald
Walt Disney Treasures - Mickey Mouse in Living Color Part 2

So they are out there and available for pre-order. And after seeing how fast the second wave sold out, these are definite pre-orders.

Here are the first box shots that I have seen...

Intreresting to see they reference the fact that Donald is the first volume.

 

[PaulP]

Yeah that's weird since they didn't designate the Mickey Mouse in Living Color set as "Volume One", so I'm wondering how the second upcoming volume will be labeled.

Note that The Chronological Donald is 275 minutes long and Tomorrowland is 240 minutes long. That's probably without the extra features.

I'm guessing the URLs for the other two sets will be http://disneyvideos.disney.go.com/mo...s/3174803.html and http://disneyvideos.disney.go.com/mo...s/3174703.html but they're not functional at the present.

 

[Brian Kidd]

I'm sure they didn't label the Mickey set as "Volume One" because at the time, the Treasures sets were a one-off release. When they sold so well, Disney decided to do further sets.

[Dome Vongvises]

Yep, I'm getting the Donald Set.

 

[PaulP]

GOD-EFFING-DAMN I cannot wait for that Front Lines set!!!

 

[BrettB]

That camo wrap-around on the Front Lines set is beyond cool.

 

[PaulP]

Yep, I'm getting the Donald Set.

Yep, I'm getting all of them again.

 

[MatthewA]

Once again, all 3 for me!

 

[Mark Zimmer]

These are a must. I may get a couple extras this time, considering the eBay frenzies these create.

 

[PaulP]

Once again, all 3 for me!

All 4 you mean.

 

[MatthewLouwrens]

Great cover for the Front Lines - and the sticker confirming the presence of Victory Through Air Power is good news.
