There are some Region 2 French DVDs that offer a Complete Flip the Frog Collection and a Complete Comicolor Collection that can be found at fnac.com

Bosko Video had a complete set of all 37 Flip the Frog shorts.

I believe that was part of the 'Cartoons That Time Forgot' series put out by Image maybe? I don't think they were Bosko releases.
I'd like to know how the MLK Comicolor and Flip The Frog sets compare to the R1 versions?
Has anyone seen these, or better yet... own them and could post screen captures?

I've just discovered that Bosko Video has actually released a VHS series called "The Complete Adventures of Flip the Frog", containing every Flip cartoon ever released.

I would be interested to know if "Davy Jones Locker" still exists in CineColor, and if anyone has a complete print (color or B&W) of "Hell's Fire".

A complete b&w print of "Hell's Fire" does exist... This prompted some folks on the board to acquire it and skillfully intercut it with the sizable surviving color chunks of the cartoon.

What about the color print of "Techno-Cracked"? Does it still exist?

I had been thinking about the same thing. I also thought that they could colorize the B&W portion to match the color section.

This is doable, it's just whether "they", meaning the copyright holders would want to go to the expense!
As far as I know, (which isn't much!) neither "Davy Jones Locker" nor "TechnoCracked" have re-surfaced in their original Cinecolor versions, though there may be discrete film print collectors out there who do have them. The Willie Whopper cartoons on your list seem to be the harder ones to find. For what it's worth I recently saw a 16mm print of Jungle Jitters go for $105.00 on E-Bay. It's a non PC film, so pretty high collector value I suppose....
