We never see Tabaqui is Disney's adaptation of the Jungle Book and Talespin has some Jungle Book characters in it like Baloo, Shere Khan and King Louie. Whose to say that Mad Dog isn't just some pirate nickname for him and his real name is Tabaqui? Also, Mad Dog and Tabaqui have very similar if not identical personalities. It could be possible that Mad Dog used to work for Shere Khan before he was fired for some incident and taken in by Don Karnage.

*** I was mostly referring to some really heavy-handed stereotypes that were present, particularly Thembria/Russia and a MissingEpisode involving YellowPeril elements. A setting alteration would help make those less offensive.

* Don Karnage will be appearing in an upcoming episode of the Ducktales reboot so fingers crossed!

** The animation will be like The Lion Guard, or stay true to the original
* Going by the designs for Kit and Molly during the San Diego Comic Con 2019 panel for ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017'', a reboot for Talespin could follow those two in their adult age taking up the family business.

Now that Kit is grown up along with Molly, he does seem to resemble Baloo. So it's very likely that he is a Sloth Bear.

* While FairForItsDay in the 90s, the 1930s/1940s setting probably wouldn't fly today. So if WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017 sparks a revival of all the Disney Afternoon shows, Talespin will have its setting altered, possibly to a 30s/40s-style steampunk or maybe even a sci fi setting. That way, they can say things like "Of course Thembria isn't a TakeThat at Russia; it just happens to be a FantasyCounterpartCulture to Russia."
** Why wouldn't it fly today? Talespin is already set in world that is similar to but is not an exact copy of the actual 30's/40's. That leaves room for plenty of creative freedom, though a sci-fi version might allow it to have more of its own identity and avoid copying the original too much.

* Baloo, Rebecca, Kit, and Molly will start of as a real family. Baloo and Rebecca will be husband and wife, while Kit and Molly will be siblings and the children of Baloo and Rebecca.
** The animation will be like The Lion Guard.

It would explain how she manages to live as a single mother and buy up a business; even accounting for the AU factor, it's probably still unusual for a widow to have business qualifications, let alone running a business singlehandedly but if Rebecca is a DaddysGirl of a wealthy man, it would make sense that he's her backer initially and eventually backs off because Rebecca wants to prove she can stand on her own.

Sure, Thembria is basically formed from the word [[With Us or Against Us "them"]], [[BilingualBonus but the Russian word for "timbre" is pronounced the exact same way as the "thembr-" in Thembria.]]

And Baloo is Little John's ancestor.
