An Albanian dub of the series entitled *Çamarrokët e vegjël* (known as Çamarrokët e kopshtit in its first 12 episodes) premiered on Bang Bang in 2007, and on Çufo in 2010. The dub was illegally produced by "Jess" Discographic, and the first twelve episodes are ripped from DVDs, like some of their other Albanian dubs.

Episodes of this dub were very hard to come by, with only a few clips being available. This was the case until 2021, when Muppetman03 discovered the dub returned to Çufo's schedule. The same user and MinaDubs would later record episodes, and ended up saving most, if not all, of the episodes.
