Product Description
Import from The Netherlands, which plays in English. DuckTales is an American animated television series produced by The Walt Disney Company starring characters from the Scrooge McDuck universe as largely created by Carl Barks. The series is notable for being the first Disney cartoon to be produced for syndication, and for paving the way for future Disney cartoons, such as Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers and TaleSpin. It also spawned a spinoff series Darkwing Duck. A world broadcast premiere television movie (entitled "The Treasures of the Golden Suns") first aired on September 18, 1987. Afterwards, it was later turned into a five-part pilot serial. The 100th and final episode aired on March 11, 1990. A feature-length movie was released in theatres on August 3, 1990. DuckTales was largely based on Carl Barks' classic Scrooge McDuck stories which ran in various Disney Comic publications. Scrooge was originally introduced as a supporting character in Donald Duck's stories but soon became so popular that he was given his own spinoff series, and soon became the center of what was eventually dubbed "The Scrooge McDuck Universe" by fans. Many DuckTales episodes, especially in the first season, are directly adapted from comic stories by Barks. Other major elements, such as Scrooge's money bin, the Junior Woodchuck organization, the city of Duckburg and many of its inhabitants, are culled directly from the comics.
