Rating: Summary: WARNING!!! Review: Hi Everyone: I am a Dad of a 2 year old that loves the Wiggles. Actually I wonder if I like them more than she does. I just wanted to say I was disappointed with this Wiggles tape. I thought the 2001 release date meant "new stuff". This is older than old though. Unless you need them all stay away from this video. The audio sounds a bit lousy too. Granted to a 2 year old it doesn't matter. Spend your money on Wiggle Time if you are new to the Wiggles. Just my 2 cents.Wigglin in Mass.
Rating: Summary: Buyer Beware Review: I pre-ordered this tape 3 months before its release thinking it was the new Wiggles tape. We have all the other tapes available in the US and Canada and were looking forward to getting this one "hot off the press", so to speak. The cover shows the present day Wiggles and even says on the box that it is copyrighted 2001. However, by the first song, it was clear that something was wrong. Anthony's hair was wild and he was wearing a green short sleeved shirt. With his five o'clock shadow and messy appearance, he looked like he just rolled out of bed after a hard night of partying (and not just dance partying). Murray's hair length and hair style changed from song to song. But the strangest sight of all was that of Captain Feathersword. The first time he appeared was from a distance and it looked like he lost a lot of weight. By the next appearance, it was clear that in fact it was Anthony dressed up as Captain Feathersword. Finally, by the end of the tape, there was yet another person (one of Anthony's brothers according to the credits) appearing as Captain Feathersword. All in all, it was rather disconcerting. When the final credits rolled, the tape says that it is copyrighted in 1995. I have no problem with buying an early Wiggles tape if I knew in advance that was what I was getting but I am very disappointed about it being presented as new product when clearly it is not. Overall, the tape seems draggy, spotty, and not anywhere in the same league as the other 5 releases.
Rating: Summary: Recycled Junk Review: THIS IS JUNK My daughter (and I) were terribly disappointed by the quality of this video. She's too young to know what's different about it, but it's clear to me that they scraped together some old tapes and put them in a shiny new box. My advice to all curious parties? 1) "Make do" with the Wiggles tapes you already have...and 2) Proceed cautiously in the future with their products...
Rating: Summary: not so bad! Review: I,too,was initially disappointed by this obviously early edition of the Wiggles in action.My kids(3 & 4yrs)did not care at all! They loved it,cheesy sets and all! Now I truly appreciate how they've evolved,and yet never lost their sense of humor.It may not be the quality we adults are accustomed to,but the kids don't seem to mind!
Rating: Summary: The Wiggles cashing out? Not too hot... Review: Our 2 year olds love the Wiggles, but they actually walked out of the room on this video! Almost looks like The Wiggles are cashing out by publishing obviously OLD videos of theirs as a "new release". Maybe its their publisher doing this, but the quality is poor compared to more recent productions, and some of the songs are actually pretty lame (also compared to more recent productions). If you are a Wiggles fanatic, you'll probably buy this anyway, but you'll be disappointed. If you're new to The Wiggles, don't buy this: buy Wiggle Time, Wake Up Jeff, Toot Toot, or Yummy Yummy instead. Those will not disappoint.
Rating: Summary: NO STARS!!!!!!! Review: This was the WORST excuse for a Wiggles video I have seen. We own all of the Wiggles videos and for the most part have been very satisfied. HOWEVER, the Wiggles put this out as a NEW video, even labeled it 2000. It is obviously their oldest video. The music is boring and could lull you to sleep. It is impossible to believe they are actually calling this a Dance Party. Do not waste your money or your time viewing this.
Rating: Summary: The Wiggles - Dance Party Review: As you will see in the other reviews, the quality of this video is less than spectacular. The lighting is poor, the costumes are not first class and the overall production is not up to Wiggles standards. If you have any of the other Wiggles videos, you'll know all the songs. That being said, my 2 yr old son still loves it. Kids aren't as subjective as parents when it comes to production values. And this video has been played at least 50 times since we've bought it. The quality wasn't what I expected from previous videos.
Rating: Summary: do not recommend Review: My son loves the Wiggles Toot-Toot & Wiggle Time videos but this one is terrible. It appears to be old clips from when they first started out. There is no computer graphics and the characters costumes are not as good. The songs are also not very good. This video is very misleading as it being a new release you would think it is new materal but don't be fooled. We are very disappointed.
Rating: Summary: The wiggles are great Review: My little brother got this dvd and i had to sit and watch it because it was really GOOD. i think i love the wiggles as much as my little brother. The songs are funny and entertaining and i know all the words.
Rating: Summary: Terrible--should be reproduced completely Review: My 2 kids are devoted Wiggles fans (ok I admit it, I like them too), but the production quality of this video is just terrible. This must be one of the first videos they ever made. They don't even have any Wiggles logos on their shirts, and it looks like they woke Anthony up off a park bench and put him in the film. Also, Capt. Feathersword is played by at least two different guys (one of them, yep Anthony), which drew protest from my oldest (I think Capt. F is his favorite character). The Big Red Car is nothing more than a painted cardboard prop. The ONLY thing that makes this video worth buying (and I don't recommend it) is because they guys have their trademark creativity and silliness, which is somewhat lacking in their more recent productions. The songs are ok, and this would probably be a decent video if they would only reproduce it according to modern Wiggles standards. My advice: Buy Wiggle Time instead.
