Anyone into collecting these? They're like mini 3D comics :)
I have an old View Master machine from my 80s childhood like the one pictured below. Been looking around eBay and finding Donald, Scrooge, DuckTales, Chip 'n' Dale, etc. reels for quite cheap. Fun thing to collect!
Now if I could only find a list of all Disney View Master reels...

Now that you mention it, ViewMaster reels were one of my initial exposures to the Ducks (along with the Whitman comics). I had a couple of reels featuring Donald that were excellent 3D models of the characters and environs, rather than illustrations. If I recall correctly, one ended in Donald mistakenly mining into one of Scrooge's vaults.
I'd definitely love to see them again!

Yes, you recall correctly :)
I have that one + Donald in a flying hammock...

and one with Donald and Chip 'n' Dale.

Yeah! I had that one too!
Oh man, what a rush of memories. Thanks for sharing that.
Garbanzo
Cool! I bought a few and they should be shipping today. Looking forward to them.
Thanks for sharing those scans, now I'm really looking forward to the full experience :)

I love my View Master reels too! I, however, only have reels featuring Disneyland. I still own some of the reels I got when I was a kid in the 70's. :)

I use to have View Master reels too. I think I might still have them. Those bring back memories.

They sure do, Roger! I need to get some of the reels featuring cartoon characters though. I recognize the Chip and Dale one, I'm sure it was part of my collection at one point. That was a looooong time ago!

I used to have a couple of these... disks? Rolls? Rotating Contraptions?
I recall one being essentially screencaps from Hercules.

I believe "reels" is the preferred nomenclature :)

I remember the viewmaster itself, but I can't recall any specific reels

Out of the Disney ones I have Three Mickey Mouse Reels, a Donald Duck Reel, an Uncle Scrooge Reel, a Chip N Dale Reel (Not Rescue Rangers), a Winnie the Pooh Reel, and a Duck Tales Reel.

I had what I believe was some sort of Ducktales reel when I was small. I think it may have been a retelling of the episode "Armstrong," but I could be mistaken.
Roger North
It was a retelling of the Armstrong episode.
