That used to drive me absolutely nuts as a kid.
The shark and submarine bit, the beagle boy pie fight, mummy chasing the nephews, alien stealing the dollar from Scrooge in space, and the tiger hugging the nephews.
I simply thought they were elusive episodes that I always managed to miss. Every other clip was from an actual episode, so I naturally concluded they must be episodes too.
Also since other shows like Rescue Rangers opening, where you could account for every clip, I couldn't understand why Ducktales would throw in a few random scenes like that, esp when these early Disney toons followed such a strict format, I couldn't accept that Ducktales would break from it in such a random way.
Maybe they were clips of planned, incomplete or unreleased episodes?
I've a;ways been interested in that and would love for someone "in the know" to shed some light on it.

Maybe they were clips from incomplete or unreleased episodes. But there's also the possibility, that they were made only for the opening sequence.
And I don't know about "Rescue Rangers", but I think "Tale spin" had some clips in its opening sequence, that weren't found in any episode, like when Baloo shoots pineapple rings at Don Carnage, or when Louie and his monkeys hangs down from the ceiling, or when Shere Khan shows his claws. But if these clips are found in episodes, please feel free to correct me.
Yes, it's true! IMDB has reached Sweden!

You're not accounting that DuckTales was a couple years before Rescue Rangers and Tale Spin, so that "strict format" hadn't been established yet. It wasn't "breaking from" anything "in a random way" at all.
