I'm sure they're just one off shorts or snippets of actual episodes.

I don't mind the nephew's voices. They're obviously meant to be a bit older, maybe teens. We're all just used to the cute duck voices.

Kind of small for teens.

Well being a lighthearted cartoon I don't think it's a big deal if thier height doesn't match a real teenager.

A lot of cartoon characters don't really match thier real life age group in appearance because they're designed to look cute or stylized in someway.

Dipper and Mabel look younger than they are in Gravity Falls. To me anyway.

I agree Utrommaniac, I can't stand the kids voices as well.

The mystery of Disney XD’s new DuckTales premiere date is a mystery no more! Thanks to some real life ducks this morning, we’ve learned that on Saturday, August 12 at midnight, DuckTales will be presented as a one-hour television movie for 24 consecutive hours on Disney XD. That’s a lot of hours to watch and rewatch what we can already tell is going to be an amazing new duck tale. Woo-hoo! is the title of the movie, and “Woo-hoo!” is how we feel about this news!

The DuckTales series will then commence with two new episodes on Saturday, September 23, which also happens to be the 30th anniversary of the original, Emmy Award-winning series. What a glorious moment in time this will be! Episodes will air at 7:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m., 2:00 p.m., 5:00 p.m., 8:00 p.m., and 10:30 p.m., EDT/PDT, so mark your calendars!
Featuring a distinct animation style inspired by the classic Carl Barks’ comic designs, DuckTales chronicles the high-flying adventures of Duckburg’s most famous trillionaire Scrooge McDuck, his mischief-making triplet grandnephews – Huey, Dewey and Louie, temperamental nephew Donald Duck and the trusted McDuck Manor team: big-hearted, fearless chauffer/pilot Launchpad McQuack, no-nonsense housekeeper Mrs. Beakley and Mrs. Beakley’s granddaughter, Webby Vanderquack, resident adventurer and the triplet’s newfound fierce friend.

The story unfolds as Donald Duck reluctantly takes Huey, Dewey and Louie to the home of their reclusive great-uncle Scrooge McDuck. Enthralled by their once-legendary great-uncle and the wonder of McDuck Manor, the triplets and Webby learn of long-kept family secrets and unleash totems from Scrooge’s epic past, sending the family on an adventure of a lifetime to the Lost City of Atlantis.

Very nice intro. Glad they used the same song. I thought it'd be a remix or some variation.

I guess the triplets are pubescent teenagers in this version.

Catchy theme song though.

Anyone know a Donald duck comic where he travels with the triplets under Scrooge's order to recover a stone statue head? It's for a museum in Duckburg. They explore jungle, escape traps and tribe, and finally found the head in a temple under a gorilla watchful eye.

Anyone know about it or the title? Kinda hard to find it since there's so many Donald Duck comic.

I hate the new beakly look.

I like the new intro, even though I'm not a fan of the animation style.


I don't know about this series. some things i like, some things i don't.
the voices of the nephews REALLY have to be changed though.

Honestly, Launchpad's voice is the only one that matches pretty well.

Replace all the kids with actual child actors (or people who can at least sound like children *cough*Kristin Schaal*cough*) and have David be a little more curmudgeonly and gruff, and I'd be okay.

But yeah, Beakly's redesign is pretty funny.

I liked the Lanchpad one. Can't watch Mrs. Beakley's. I still hate the voices of the kids.

Dipper from Gravity Falls is 13 years old teenager and very small (the same small height as his twin sister Mabel) yet his voice is very deep.



Yes you can see lots of similarity with this show and Ducktales animation style. No surprise there: art director was from Gravity Falls.
