It would of course be possible to expand the definition of a "Disney Treasure" so far that this line could last "forever". However, I think the selection we've seen so far suggests that the WDTs will include more, most or even all of the classic animated shorts and a good deal of the more interesting live action films and television material from the 50s and 60s.

After we get Wave 3 in May, there should be one more of Silly Symphonies, one more of Mickey in B&W, two (or three?) of Donald Duck, one complete Pluto and the one with "miscellaneous shorts" that some of you are talking about.

A "True Life Adventures" set was rumoured at one point and I hope it becomes reality. Maybe there are a few more "adventure" series like Davy Crockett and some more themes from Walt's TV shows worthy of a WDT set.

I doubt that "Duck Tales" would be released as a WDT, even if that show is among the more worthy material from the past 15 years.

Given that the premiere purpose of the set is collecting the shorts under Walt's reign, they still have to put out at least:
Mickey B&W II (announced)
Silly Sym II
Donald II, III, IV
Pluto
Other

You would think there could also be an Educational or Others II set, depending on how/if they include all the anthology movies.

As for the live action stuff, one can see one set each of highlights from
Zorro
MM Club (rumors of big legal problems on this one)
True Life Adventures

That's 11 right there, which suggests 3 more sets of 3 or 4 items.

At this point, everything is just rumor, so my prediction remains
Wave 4: MMBW II, DD II, TLA
Wave 5: SS II, DD III, Other, Zorro
Wave 6: Pluto, DD IV, Other II, MMC

I'm expecting for the second Silly Symphonies volume, and the second of Mickey in B/W as well.
I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way.
