The holiday specials will be on a separate set no doubt. They did similar things with the Smurfs new set dropping the Springtime special and letting the Christmas special dvd go out of print. Most of us regular buyers already have these sets, these new "get-in-line" issues are just for newbies and replacements for when our sets break. I do wonder if they'll re-do the ones from the 13 Spooky Tales down the line too.
Besides we all know WB loves to milk re-buying and double dips. So yeah eventually they'll be there.

What's New Scooby Doo? was produced for widescreen since the beginning, like many other Warner Bros. cartoon series from the 2000s. i.imgur.com/n5hvD6S.pngYeah, I could see how this would be frustrating... I wonder why they haven't released the series on physical media in widescreen then?

Unfortunately Warner Bros refuses to re-release their cartoon series from 2000s in widescreen on DVD, a Blu-ray release seems the only chance of getting the true widescreen versions. A few other Scooby titles (Shaggy and Scooby Get a Clue!, Spooky Games special) and several Scooby movies are only available cropped to 4:3 on DVD too.
It really seems like a crazy decision, when Warner Bros. could actually be marketing these DVD re-releases as 'first time available in widescreen'. As a result most of their DVD releases of cartoon series from the 2000s are worthless now, especially compared to the digital releases.

We have confirmation that they are not on there. Well, that's unfortunate. I wonder if they plan to release them together as a separate set, or would you have to buy all the old "volume _" collections to get the specials as well? They probably plan to group them with all the Halloween/Christmas specials from "The New Scooby-Doo Mysteries", "Be Cool Scooby-Doo", "The Headless Horseman of Halloween" from "The Scooby-Doo Show", "Ghost Who's Coming To Dinner" from "A Pup Named Scooby-Doo" and "Wrath of the Krampus" from "Mystery Incorporated". That would give us 11 episodes, 13 if they split "A Halloween Hassle At Dracula's Castle" and "The Nutcracker Scoob" into their respective parts. 13 seems to be the standard for compilations of Scooby-Doo. However, "A Scooby Doo Valentine" would be a pretty obvious outlier, being the only episode not about Halloween or Christmas, or having a Halloween or Christmas-themed villain. If they don't split the two 80's specials, I could also see Haunted Holidays and Spooky Scarecrow being added as well. Either way, this is super uncool of Warner Bros. to do.

Huh, didn't think about them collectively releasing all the holiday specials in one set but that's an interesting idea. Still no reason to not put them on a complete series set though IMO.
