It will be interesting to see if Yogi Bear comes from Warner Archive or Warner Bros. Home Entertainment. But I'm sure it's coming eventually.

[karsten]

I'm hoping for Valley of the Dinosaurs.



Some very fine animation. The DVD is okay . . .



. . . but a blu-ray would be better still.

[Hammerlover]

In addition to their justly celebrated Tom & Jerry cartoons, Bill and Joe made a number of interesting one-shots at MGM as well. It would be nice to see these get some love from the Archive, too!

[starsteam]

My wish list

Godzilla
Challenge of the Go-Bots (mini-series)
Challenge of the Go-Bots: The Series
Go-Bots: Battle of the Rock Lords
Valley of the Dinosaurs

[Dragon78]

I would buy most their stuff on blu-ray but the ones I want the most would be A Pup Named Scooby Doo, Dexter's Lab, Galtar and The Golden Lance, Pirates of Darkwater, The Powerpuff Girls, The Smurfs, SWAT Kats, Top Cat, and Yogi Bear.

[Justin2000]

My Wishlist:
Scooby Doo and The Reluctant Werewolf
The New Scooby & Scrappy Doo Show/ The New Scooby Doo Mysteries
A Pup Named Scooby Doo
Wacky Races

[PowellPressburger]

Really want

Wait till Your Father Gets Home - Complete Series

and a Pup Named Scooby Doo

[Zombo]

My Wishlist :

Goober and the Ghostchasers
Gravedale High
Kwicky Koala Show
Drak Pack
The Funky Phantom
Clue Club
The Blue Falcon and Dyno Mutt
Trollkins ( 1981/82 )

[Torgon]

They need to do ALL of the Super-Friends in one collection. 'Nuff Said.

[Dragon78]

I do hope they continue releasing these on blu-ray.

[Bamble]

Warner Archive previously labeled several Ruby-Spears shows (inaccurately) as Hanna-Barbera series for their DVD releases. Regardless, Blu-ray upgrades to those series, such as the one Thundarr has already received, would also be welcome, and my candidates would be:

Plastic Man (including season 2, which never fully made it to DVD)
Robo Force (pilot episode included on one of the Gobots DVDs)
Centurions
Superman (1988)

[grim_tales]

I'm hoping for Top Cat

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Ruby-Spears became a sister company to Hanna-Barbera in 1981 when they were bought by Taft Broadcasting.

That's correct, they ended up as a sister company under the same ownership as Hanna-Barbera, which is probably why for approximately the last 30 years the Ruby-Spears shows have simply been lumped in with Hanna-Barbera from a marketing/distribution perspective. Even after 1981 Ruby-Spears still retained their company name on most of their series, however.

[vertigop1ayer]

Godzilla and everything left from DC and Scooby-Doo.

[gpn]

My number one want is Fantastic Four, but since it wasn't even released on DVD, I'm sure there's issues with it.

[Mikezilla3k]

Maybe include films based off Hanna-Barbara properties like all the Scooby films?

Also, you don't really need to include the limited Where Are You set if you have the standard release.
