If you don't own any previous DVD collection of these classic animated shorts, then this may be worth checking out!

Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment are now releasing a few of these shorts on DVD for the first time (some have appeared on past Disney DVD releases). With the first three volumes released, the fourth, fifth and sixth volumes will be released on May 12, 2009.

Hey, it's time I watched it again.
