Does anyone know the Full Specs on the upcoming release of Wacky Races?

I notice that but I hope they don't release a volume 2 or something.

Looks like I'm buying the set than.

IMDb lists 34 episodes for the series and it appears that is the number being released in the box set.

This would work with Tom and Jerry than wouldn't it? If so, I might spring for this.

Anyone know how exactly these work, you don't have to cut out the UPC do you?

It should work with all of the Hanna Barbera titles and possibly even the Looney Tunes sets, but I'm not certain. There should be some sort of flyer/insert with the set that explains the deal. You probably have to pop out one of the "proof of purchase" tabs though.
