Yoooo! Nice! It's good to have higher res versions of the thumbnails since it was kinda hard to make out what they looked since previously the only images we did have were pretty low res.
As for reverse image searching them like what Tpose said. Unfortunately nothing really comes up. Google says that no other sizes are avaliable. While Tineye does have results, they're all from Nicks' official page which of course doesn't actually exist anymore. We could try Artist Ninja but in my experience with using it for my own stuff. It tends to just pull up a bunch of stuff that vaguely resembles the image in question. Plus i think they only let you use it three times a day unless you get a premium account so idk if it's worth it.

I tried installing Ruffle to see if it could emulate flash, therefore possibly running the video. Unfortunately it doesn't work either. But i noticed that when i click on the prompt to run it in a new tab. The URL given is "http://media.mtvnservices.com/https://web.archive.org/web/20150423181030oe_/mgid:cms:video:nicktoons.com:1027538" I'm testing this on the Wanda one. So idk what it's like on the other ones. But i thought this would be something to point out.
Edit: Pretty sure i got too hyped and jumped the gun. It might just be the media player used to play the video. But i think it might be worth looking into

I tried putting the file through SWF player, but it says "No ShockwaveFlash Object installed"

Yeah its just the media player that it downloads, I was testing it all night. If I were to guess, the media player is trying to open the links I sent but can't, that's why trying to use ruffle or opening the swf from the website results in an error.
I cannot confirm if the videos work, because my computer is dead and I only have my phone, so someone else will have to check. We can at least see the thumbnails, though.
I thought of something. The main reason we can't actually watch this is because we need Flash but that can't be enabled. I know there's a flash game archive but I wonder if it archives videos too, or if there's a video archive on it's own. I'm going to take a looksie
Unfortunately I don't know enough about the technical side of wayback machine or Flash but I do know there are ways to enable it, someone saved the entire Zoo Pals paper plate website when I couldn't access any of it for my video.
I'll check in with those people and see what they can do about these shorts, it might be a matter of the shorts not actually being there but based on everything we've found on the webpages they also could be.
Let me ask those people and I'll keep you updated with what they say.

Wait hold up I just thought about something. If these did come out in 2012 that would mean these shorts would be turning 10 years old this year. On social media Nickelodeon likes post old bumpers sometimes and basically be like "hey this came out __ years ago, who remembers?" so there could be a chance that they'll end up posting at least one of the shorts, or if they realize that they're lost media they could do what they did with Cry Baby Lane or they can tease us like what they're doing with the Blue's Clues pilot
