UPDATE (11/07/25): Late, though, but I managed to grab the Dutch 2-pack DVD. The disc for the first film includes the European French dub, the Dutch dub (latter two are both in 5.1), as well as Czech, Flemish, Hungarian, Polish and Slovak dubs, only in Dolby Surround. I’ve also managed to get the LD capture with my U24XL perfectly since stupid old me realised that it’s not the model’s fault, it’s MY fault that it wouldn’t work and sounds very glitchy on a USB 1.0/2.0 port on my PC, so thankfully I found out that I need to plug it into a USB 3.0 port in order for it to work, and of course, I was able to capture the US CLV disc (for patching the missing parts of audio on the Deluxe CAV release) and both French and Spanish LDs fine. Though I was already thinking of doing the German and maybe Hong Kong LaserDiscs too, once I managed to acquire them, though the status of rarity and whether the online shopping store is suitable to ship over to the UK may make it difficult. In fact, I’m already planning on getting the German and both standard and deluxe Japanese LDs just so I can decode the LD-G subtitles for the standard since it’s compatible with the EIA-608 system (I tested this with my LD copies of the PREMIUM BOX LD of Ghost in the Shell and The Phantom Menace to prove it), and for the deluxe, I’m just curious to know what that second Japanese language was according to LDDb, like I said. Also, I’ve managed to grab the Spanish DVD, but it seems to not play on my drive, maybe due to overpressing and signs of disc rotting since I noticed white smudges that are uncleanable, so I have to go buy another one, though I am still waiting for the German DVD to arrive. In fact, I recall this latter DVD does also contain Turkish and Bulgarian dubs too, which I found interesting since Toy Story didn’t get a DVD release in Bulgaria until 2010, as far as I’m concerned. And for the Mainland Chinese VCD, scrap that, because I just happened to find a BiliBili video of a DVD walkthrough of the 2000 Mainland Chinese DVD release of the film here (https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV19RPde7EBx/). Though I can tell this copy is impossible to get, since no pictures of this DVD are available and this video is the only source we have. Speaking of Chinese, I was able to find several listings on eBay of Hong Kong/Taiwanese DVD releases, though looking deeper, it seems to be bootlegs since I can’t find any official pre-2005 Hong Kong/Taiwanese DVDs available, though I can already sense these are bootlegs since they contain the THX logo, despite only the 2000 US, Japanese and Korean DVDs being THX-certified, and they use the 2-pack artwork and not the standard releases. Though I was able to find a pre-2005 Thai DVD copy of the movie here (https://shopee.co.th/DVD-ภาพยนตร์แอนิเมชั่นของเล่น-ผจญภัยสุดน่ารัก-จาก-Pixar-Studios-Toy-Story-ทอย-สตอรี่-ภาค-1-(1995)-i.80068955.3341556936?is_from_signup=true) but because of the low quality of the camera and the fact that the seller didn’t give us the full close-up of the back so we can see the language options and the barcode, this is the only source we have as well. Though you can tell it’s authentic because of the “Steamboat Willie” hologram and weirdly uses the cover from the standalone USA release, down to the gold background and similar artwork they use. And for the Swedish/Finnish/Icelandic release, well…we’ll see if there is any way we can find a copy of it around, since, keep in mind, it is, to my knowledge, impossible to import DVDs from Scandinavian countries.
What’s the total dub list at now?
From what I can gather, the film was dubbed officially in an average of more or less than 40 languages.
I actually meant the list of dubs and audio tracks that are now included in the project.
