  • Nostalgia
I’m absolutely thrilled with this collection! As someone who grew up watching many of these shows, it brings back so many fond memories. Not only does it include a great variety of classic shows from my childhood, but there are also plenty of shows that my parents used to enjoy. It’s wonderful to see such a broad selection of content that spans generations, which makes it easy to connect with the past while introducing my kids to the same shows I loved growing up. The quality of the shows is fantastic as well. I was pleasantly surprised by how crisp and clear the visuals are, despite some of these shows being older. The sound quality is equally impressive, which makes watching these classic shows a truly enjoyable experience. It's clear that a lot of care and effort went into preserving and presenting this content in a way that feels fresh and accessible, even in today's high-definition world. What excites me the most is that I’m now able to share these timeless shows with my own children. It’s a unique feeling to pass down the tradition of watching these beloved programs, and I can already see them enjoying the same things I did when I was their age. It's not just about the entertainment; it's about creating shared experiences and connecting with family through something as simple, yet meaningful, as watching a show together. Whether it's a cartoon I used to watch on Saturday mornings or a classic sitcom that my parents enjoyed, this collection has it all. I can tell my kids are already developing their own favorites, and it’s heartwarming to know that they’re now part of this multi-generational tradition. If you’re someone who wants to relive the past while introducing your children to some of the great shows that shaped your own childhood, this is absolutely the perfect collection. In conclusion, I’m beyond happy with this purchase. It’s the perfect blend of nostalgia, quality, and family connection. The wide variety of shows, the high-quality presentation, and the ability to share these timeless programs with my children make it a purchase I’ll never regret. I can’t wait for the next generation of memories to be made with these classic shows! ... show more

  • Wonderful For Kids or Gen X/Baby Boomers Who Are Kids At Heart
If you're a Boomer or Gen X-er, you will remember these cartoons as a child. They used to be broadcast every Christmas on TV. I understand a lot of them are being streamed, so if you don't subscribe to that streaming service, you'll miss what was a wonderful holiday tradition for us older folks when we were kids. But never fear, because you can own the entire Rankin/Bass collection in this set. These "Stop Action" specials and hand-drawn cartoons are sweet and nostalgic. They are reminders of how children's shows used to be created; back then there were no computers, Pixar studios and slick computer animation. But they are timeless stories that kids today can enjoy. They are voiced by actors who are no longer with us, but have left us with a wonderful legacy; in fact, kids today who are curious about these actors can learn about them on the internet. I recommend you buy this set, because it comes with lots of extras. You'll learn about how these cartoons were made and other interesting facts. Plus you can view these shows any time you want and not worry about missing them on TV or not being able to view them unless you subscribe to certain streaming services. Your kids will love them, and you can watch them together as a family. ... show more

  • RANKIN BASS COMPLETE COLLECTION BLU RAY IS A KEEPER; WELL WORTH THE UPGRADE!
With the Holiday season upon us once again a new Rankin Bass collection has been released. This year’s offering is a complete collection of all of the Rankin Bass Christmas themed specials. All 18 original Specials on 5 discs in a nice compact case with slipcover. The case is a hinged type case so there is no awkward stacking of discs. I never bothered buying any of these specials on Blu Ray before this set as I felt my DVD versions were on par with the first release of Blu Rays. I can say that this set is a worthy upgrade and all of the Specials featured look very good on Blu Ray. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of these specials. Naturally Rudolph got the most attention being the crown jewel of the lot and the one that put Rankin Bass on the map. The Little Drummer Boy and Frosty’s Winter Wonderland are the weakest in terms of dirt, scratches etc, but they do not look bad by any stretch. The Little Drummer Boy is a low lighted special so I assume it was hard to brighten it too much without ruining the integrity of the original design. Frosty’s Winter Wonderland has some dirt here and there, but both of these specials look better than they’ve ever looked before and should not disappoint. Bonus material I believe were carried over from past releases and can be found on the first few discs.. The specials are arranged in chronological order, so that may answer some other reviewers questions why the sequels weren’t arranged on the disc featuring their original counter parts. There is a play all feature on each disc, but no matter what special you choose the disc will play the following specials in order there after. This is easily remedied by pressing menu and picking the particular special you want to see. It’s not a big deal as I very rarely watch more than two or three at a time and I will watch certain specials more often that others. The thick cardboard slipcover is sturdy and attractive. Considering many of these specials were not available on factory pressed discs; this set is a no-brainer and should not be passed up. The only thing that could be better is if it were a complete set of all of the Rankin Bass productions including many that haven't seen an official Home Video release. Maybe we will see another set featuring the remaining Specials, TV shows and Films from the unique team of Rankin Bass who were so much a part of many of our childhoods. It’s hard to imagine Christmas without at least a few of these timeless specials and this set is keeper for sure. ... show more
