Upcoming ANIMATED series (pre-2000) - Blu-ray Forum

I don't see a whole lot of discussion on these board about classic animated series that are coming up on blu-ray. Maybe this thread can be updated whenever a cartoon series is going to be released. I'm wondering about the following series:

1. Tiny Toon Adventures (1990 series)
2. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987 series)
3. The Real Ghostbusters AKA Slimer & The Real Ghostbusters (1986 series)
4. Smurfs (1981 series)
5. The New Fred and Barney Show (1979 series)
6. The Flintstone Comedy Show (1980 series)
7. Yo Yogi (1991 series)

I know there has been ample discussion on the interwebs about which series were edited on tape and for which the original film elements no longer exist. I'm also aware that some Hanna-Barbera content is only available in standard definition due to being colored on tape. But at this point, I'll take whatever "master" is available. For context, the Sailor Moon series were upscaled from tape masters and they look *acceptable*. I'd take that quality over the awful interlaced DVD versions available to us currently.

Anyone know if these series will be gracing our blu-ray cabinet anytime soon?
