Walt Disney Treasures: The Complete Goofy

[Speedy Boris]

Just my luck. The one Treasures DVD set I have an interest in buying, and it's discontinued/OOP. Sigh. Any chance this will be re-released at some point? I'd love to legally own these shorts but its rarity is making it hard for me to do so.

Try on Ebay and prepare yourself to pay pretty much:o

[Leviathan]

I just took a look, and I'm shocked at how much even the tinless Goofy sets are going for on eBay. (I got mine in tin in 2004 for the not unreasonable sum of $50).

The prices of these highly desirable OOP DVD sets flucuate, so what I'd recommend is keeping your eyes peeled until you find a deal.

Amazon has it Used and New

The tinless sets tend to go for a little less... I managed to get MM: In Living Color Vol. 1 last year for around 30 bucks.

I got a used tin set of this a few days before my birthday back in November. It must've costed my mother a pretty penny. :o

Same Here, But I have reason to believe my Disc 1 has a defect (If only Disney did replacement discs for its OOP titles)

Same Here, But I have reason to believe my Disc 1 has a defect (If only Disney did replacement discs for its OOP titles) What would be the defect? I own this set and it played fine for me. Of course, my copy is a Brazilian edition - which actuallyplays on Region 1 players and has the English soundtracks.

As for the Goof, you can keep monitoring eBay and Amazon. I doubt that these sets will be reissued by Disney. Right now, it seems the Walt Disney Treasures program is on life support from year-to-year, indicating that these things are not exactly setting sales records for the company. A reissue is almost guaranteed to sell in lower numbers than the original release.

You can watch for sets of Goofy cartoons on the more family oriented cartoon releases from Disney - but if you work it out on a cost-per-cartoon basis, even the price "The Complete Goofy" is going for now make it a better buy than going the other route.

I think it is most wanted out of print WDT set along with Mickey Mouse in Black and Withe vol 1.

Mines a Region 1 tinless copy. I got it factory sealed.

The defect is some kind of glitch that prevents my DVD player from being able to read Lonesome Ghosts or Clock Cleaners properly (it skips)

I dunno, I guess it shouldn't surprise me that it's hard to find now, since it was released a few years ago, but for those of us late to the party, it sucks. Only recently have I begun to get into Goofy shorts, especially the ones directed by Jack Kinney. "Motor Mania", in particular, is awesome.

Online's always an option, I guess, though I prefer the feeling of being able to physically buy it and take it home the same hour.

Mickey Black & White Vol. 1 is still available from the Disney Movie Club, last I looked. I just got a copy myself.

Speaking of Disney Treasures, I recently found a nice copy of Mickey in Color Vol. 1 with tin at a Goodwill thrift store for $3.99. Talk about a steal :D.

[sumnernor]

I have bought things from Amazon "sellers"

Jun 2004 : Goofy $48.00 + $4.99 post = $52.99
May 2005: Mickey Mouse in Black & White $39.99 + $4.99 Post = $44.98

In Germany one can look at "Walt Disney Kostbarkeiten" . There never has been Pluto nor tins. France had some tins but have not seen those for at least 2 years. Germany still has some treasures:

the first Mickey in Color "Micky Maus im Glank der Farbe"
The 2nd Mickey in Color " Micky Maus im Glanz der Farbe 2 " (http://www.amazon.de/Walt-Disney-Kostbarkeiten-Micky-Glanz/dp/B0002EY36G/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1208285840&sr=1-4)
Silly Symphonies "Lustige Welt der Melodien"
This has , unlike the USA, the original video of the 3 little pigs (with "modified sound"
Also spotted was Donald Duck 1 " Donald im Wandel der Zeit" (http://www.amazon.de/Walt-Disney-Kostbarkeiten-Donald-Wandel/dp/B0002EY36Q/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1208285840&sr=1-5)


All of these are region 2 with english and germany audio and subtitles
I understand some of these may have less extras. I first bought Silly Symphonies and Mickey Color-1 in Germany. These all now cost circa 10 Euros (circa $15).

So if you can play region 2, you might get some of the early treasures.

EDIT: Today I was at a "Saturn" store in Munich and they have "Silly Symphonies as well as Micky color 1 &2 and Donald 1 & 2
