4 KID FAVORITES CARTOON NETWORK: HALL OF FAME #3 - 4 KID FAVORITES CARTOON NETWORK: HALL OF FAME #3 (4 DVD)
P**A
Good price.
The compilation might be a bit on the random side since the seasons and disc number (from one season) are almost like a mix and match. It'd be better if they just released the shows individually. But I still think it's a good way to get into these old cartoons again or for the first time for a not too expensive price of around 17 bucks CAD (I got it for 17.05 excluding tax).I bought it with disregard for which seasons I would be getting. Some other reviews are not so hot because apparently they received the wrong seasons/disc numbers (as in the difference between disc 1/2/3 of a season).Price: 5/5Can't complain.Preservation: 5/5 (probably, after seeing the first episodes of each disc)All of these seasons should be in 4:3 aspect ratio. All of these are the older seasons before the shows went HD. I think some of these shows never had HD, and some did. And of course since it's DVD everything is only maxed out at standard definition anyways. I usually watch standard definition on the old SD TV. It looks better and less revealing.Subtitles: 5/5 (probably)I think all of the shows have subtitles which is definitely a good thing. Some has closed captions, but subtitles are already included, so CC is pretty much useless in this case. CC is probably added likely because VHS format would most definitely need them, and they just left it in there when they also made the DVDs. DVDs can have time sync issues with CC, so it's definitely worse if you're stuck with only CC for your DVDs.Packaging: 2/5As for packaging, the case is fine and durable enough, though nothing special. But all the discs are stacked on one holder so it's a real pain to take out the disc you want. That's not just 2 or 3, but 4 discs stacked together. It's like how they stack Xbox One game discs, which is fine in that case, except it's actually annoying when it's done for DVDs and Bluray movies/shows. As a result I just keep the 4 discs in a CD/DVD pouch. So now the case is pretty much useless, only keeping it because of cover art.Final comment:For a 2015 release (of relatively old cartoons from the era of standard definition broadcasting) I'm rather expecting large editions of one specific show with multiple seasons compiled into one package. Much like Teen Titans complete series (which is also from CN), ATLA complete series (from Nick), or even Spongebob with Season 1+2 in one package (this show pretty much goes on forever, in all fairness). I wanted to own and watch Billy and Mandy mostly, but the DVDs are impossible to find even just for retail price. The last one I found was only season 1 but it was around 70-something bucks, which is ridiculous. One can only assume those season sets aren't being produced anymore. So while I think this compilation is decent for the price, I don't think compilations should get releases before the actual separate releases of the specific shows. These releases should be treated as value packs for casual viewers/collectors, but I'm pretty sure what most fans want are releases of specific shows.

Great buy
I bought the previous 2 volumes and had to get volume 3 mainly for grim adventures.. i first looked at the reviews, i bought it knowing that dexter and codename had the wrong discs in it but i didnt care that much considering at the time grim adventures season 1 is $80 minimum so i saw it as a win. Little did i know when my volume 3 arrived all the right discs were in the case! I got part 2 of both dexter and codename instead of part 1 like everyone was complaining about. I figure with the amount of people sayin they got the duplicates i got extremely lucky and im very happy

Pure nostalgia
All discs were correct, after reading many reviews I was expecting to receive the duplicate discs I already had. I mainly bought it for the billy and Mandy disc anyway but was pleasantly surprised to receive the second disk of dexters lab and correct disc from KDND. Great dvd 👍
