 - Exciting DuckTales adventuresAfter I bought DuckTales volume 1, I decided to find more on the internet, so I found volume 2 & 3 from my favorite site, Amazon.com. I bought the remaining volume 2 and 3. Both volumes are a good quality DVDs. Volume 2 DVD series have 24 episodes and introduces us to Mrs. Beakly, Webbigail, Gyro Gearloose, and Doofus. I like Flinthead Glomgold character as he the nemesis of Scrooge McDuck. The best episodes are (The treasure of the Golden Suns), (The golden fleecing), (Raiders of the lost harp), and (Scroogerello). Disc 1 includes: Treasure of the golden suns (part 1, 2, 3, 4, 5), Back to the Klondike, Horse scents, and Scrooge's pet. Disc 2 includes: Catch as cash can (part 1, 2, 3, 4), Merit-time adventure, The golden fleecing, Ducks of the West, and Time teasers. Disc 3 includes: Back out in the outback, Raiders of the lost harp, The right duck, Scroogerello, Double-O-Duck, Luck O' the ducks, Duckworth's revolt, and Magica's magic mirror / take me out of the ballgame. Rating: - Duck Tales.. Whoooo ooooooWe love Duck Tales and are very glad to be able to get the second edition of the series. We are introducing a new generation to this fun filled cartoon. To semi-quote Launchpad..."On a scale of 1 to 10, we give it an A!" Rating: - Prime DuckThe second volume is a welcome addition to the material on DVD of the amazing ducks.More great adventures,more spectacular fun and best of all, the series start is finally included.The masterful adventure in five parts that set the tone for the series is finally included, as is the great cash contest to see who would market the glowing fruit... all multi part stories, but great nonetheless.Also, the two stories in the space of one episode is introduced on disc 3 here.The additional stories on the discs are , in part, material adapted from the great Carl Barks' bountiful body of work.And why are there only "24" episodes, instead of 27 as there were in volume one? Where are the missing episodes?Or does the adverts count for more ( They sound great in 5.1)? But I am happy with it all, since Duck Tales was great on Saturday TV, and even better with no commercials. The DVD is of good quality, but it is strange that the promo starts in disc one are in 5.1, but the remainder of the material is all in mono. And worst of all, the promo refers to the restoration of the older films, which is great; but, for the older fans who enjoyed these when young, why did Disney not put the material into 5.1? or even stereo ? And even a booklet that looks at the Barks connection to the stories would have been good. Ah well, at least I am thankful this great work is out on DVD. Rating: - Fantastic DVD-box!!I'm very pleased with this buy! unfortunately Disney's not going to bring out this complete serie in Europe. We onely have 5 episodes on a disc because of the different languages that have to be on the disc. The onely thing is that I can't watch it in Dutch like when I was young, but that's no problem at all... Happely I could buy the dvd-box at Amazon. Even with shipping it's cheaper than in Europe, even through I had to pay another 10 euro's import-taxes to get it into the Netherlands. This box makes me think about my youth, when I watched it when it was on television:d Great memories! Amazing this dvd-box! Can't wait for the third box!! Rating: - GreatThese new episodes of the Duck Tales are just as good as the previous release. My daughter loves watching them, and honestly, so do I. Highly recommended.
