Summary: Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends - Platinum Collection
Comment: If your little one likes Thomas the Train then this is the collection for you! Thomas and his friends, Percy and James, get into all sorts of trouble but with help and cooperation solve their problems. It is entertaining for children but gives them subtle life lessons.

Summary: Not that great
Comment: As stated before, the dvds open with several minutes of commercials. My experience was that we could fast forward through some of them, except on the Thomas dvd, which forces you to watch them all. There are also several logos that you are forced to watch.

Let me tell you something - when your two-year-old son has just had surgery and has to stay at home to recover, and wants to see Thomas, the last thing he wants is a bunch of logos, fbi warnings, and commercials.

The narrators are inconsistent. I prefer the british narrators, especially Ringo, but this set is a real mess, mixing the actors and wandering in and out of sequence.

There also seems to be an emphasis on big messy accidents in this set, which gets a bit scary for the little ones.

Okay, but not great.

Summary: Very good.
Comment: This is an exellent DVD set.Don't listen to what the others say,they say its bad,and I don't care for the 5 minutes of commercials,they are actully intresting.They also have a cool way of doing the song inbetween episodes,which is showing thier moments.This is really good,but I actully brought a set at Best Buy which includes the Best Of Gordon aswell.The DVDs show old episdoes re-narrarated by George Carlin.In conclusion,you might as well get this DVD set.

Summary: not good at all - so disappointed
Comment: If you already have other newer DVDs, don't buy this set. There are alot of overlapping episodes (well, hence, "the best of..."). The quality is very very bad, they should put in a little effort to remaster everything. Also, the episodes are out of chronological order. Neither of the 3 DVDs hold my son's interest for too long, and he is a MAJOR Thomas fan.

BEST OF THOMAS, BEST OF PERCY and BEST OF JAMES! Best of Thomas: Over the past few years, we have received hundreds of thousands of letters, e-mails, and phone calls from fans who wanted to share with us their favorite Thomas stories. From this loyal support, we were proud to produce this DVD which includes eight of your favorite Thomas adventures and remarkable bonus features that promote learning and fun for everyone! Best of Percy: Known as the Junior Member of the railway with #6 on his side and a spunky personality, Percy has been a faithful friend of Thomas from the beginning. Even loyal Thomas & Friends fans like you have chosen Percy as Thomas' favorite friend. With this DVD we are happy to celebrate all the special characteristics and qualities that Percy brings to the Island of Sodor with nine favorite stories, several special features, and educational fun for everyone! Best of James: Known on the Island of Sodor for his fine scarlet coat and occasional high-falutin' attitude, James has been a fan favorite from the very beginning. Children love his big grin and jovial way - - adults connect with his kind heart and warm disposition. With this DVD we are happy to celebrate James, the very useful, splendid red engine, with eight favorite stories, several special features, and trainloads of educational fun!
