Classic Collection is a series of double feature DVDs released in Australia on 3 February 2011. All of these combine previous original Wiggles releases (ranging from 1998 to 2006) onto 1 disc, and retain all of their original bonus features. Two of these are reissues of existing double features.

It was followed up by a similar series in 2013, Wiggly Favourites, focusing on Sam-era videos.

Trivia[]

  • When compared to the individual releases, some of these DVDs show more compression (i.e. visual noise and blocking artefacts in the video) due to having to fit more content on one disc. Shorter videos are much less affected by this, while longer videos look far worse. For example, Toot Toot! & Whoo Hoo! Wiggly Gremlins! are roughly 45 minutes each and contain minimal special features, and they show no signs of major compression on their combo disc. However, Racing to the Rainbow & Sailing Around the World average closer to an hour and a half each in run time, and both contain several extras, so their combined release looks fairly low-quality. This problem of course affected the later Wiggly Favourites DVDs as well.
  • Similar double features for HIT Entertainment shows were released around the same time.
