WB Archive Collection: Discs On Demand!

Here's the relevant section of a recent podcast providing details on WA's next major Hanna-Barbera animated TV series set .. the complete Huckleberry Hound, on 11 Blu-ray discs!



It's coming in August .. though it's not available for pre-order from WA's Amazon store, just yet.

Looks like the full retail price will be around US$70 .. just over a dollar, per episode..!

And close to half that in an eventual WA sale!

It looks to be an amazing release. It's also been hinted that the QuickDraw McGraw music rights issue is being hammered out, too. The future is bright.

Sounds like me tv toons will use the new remasters later also.

GF: “At the time, there was a rumor going around that Warner didn’t do a Huck V2 because it hadn’t sold very well—That’s not true, it sold very well.”

Gee, I wonder WHICH weaselly, mule-stubborn studio p***-pants terrified of releasing Collector’s Edition boxsets in mass market retail started THAT particular canard?

(00s Warner would burn down a kindergarten, and then say “Kids told us learning the alphabet was ‘boring’.” )

It looks to be an amazing release. It's also been hinted that the QuickDraw McGraw music rights issue is being hammered out, too. The future is bright.

The music rights also kept Huck V2 off of disc, the first time round. Interesting.
Maybe that means we might even see some of the Seely-scored Looney shorts come out of limbo.

Just so long as we can finally fill in missing voids in the collection, Warner Archive’s our Huckleberry.
