VHS Description

“A fine feathered fantasy…The animation and the color are Disney!”

-New York Newsday

Treasure of the Lost Lamp is the first full-length feature film starring Scrooge McDuck, Huey, Dewey, Louis, and Webbigail Vanderquack! The Egyptian desert becomes a non-stop adventure zone as the DuckTales team pursues the legendary treasure of Collie Baba’s ancient pyramid! When the daring ducks make off with the riches, little do they know there’s a magic lamp among the gems…a lamp with a wacky, wish-granting Genie inside! When Merlock, the evil sorcerer, follows them back to Duckburg, an incredible battle erupts over the lost lamp! But in the thrilling climax, Scrooge and the nephews learn a lesson far more valuable than even the world’s greatest treasure!
