What are these shorts? I found "The Grasshopper and The Ants" on disc one. But I haven't searched for the others

In my opinion disney probably will release the specials (e.g. Ferdinand), and in addition some rare animation.

Concerning rare animation there are some more possibilities than just the cartoons from the silent era. Maybe more commercials (from the 40s) and educationals the disney company released in the 50s (i´m no fool) and in the 60s (educationals with Donald Duck)

Another possibility for rare animation could be some material from unproduced shorts (like Pilgrim Mickey or The Mountain Carvers). I´ve read somewhere that some of those shorts went into the "pencil test" phase.

Or even "Destino", "The Gremlins", etc. That would be very cool!!!

Also have read that there exist some Disney animation sequences from hollywood live action films of the 1940s...

Maybe it´s even a mix of silent films, specials, tv animation, etc. and they choose the title rarities so that the mixed stuff fits together...

I think the list of "Specials" alone is enough for one set, so if what you suggest here amounts to much, there could very well be another.
