Toy Story DVDs

Hi,

I was just reading UltimateDisney's review of the 10th Anniversary set of Toy Story, and how they compared it to the Ultimate Toy Story Box.

So a couple questions for you.

I have the Toy Story 2-pack (that has the Gold Classics Collection version of the first movie), and with my birthday coming up, was considering buying a multi-disc version since that has virtually no special features.

I have the Tin Toy short, as it's on the GCC DVD, but the rest of the stuff I'm missing.

What are the thoughts about what to get? I can get the 3 disc box for $25, so it's not an issue of money.

I would really enjoy the music-only track that offers, but what about the rest? I saw in the review a list of what the 2 disc SE didn't offer that the 3 disc did... but does it offer anything that the 3 disc didn't?

And any overall thoughts about the releases? Is there a better one I'm missing out on? I saw Toy Story in theaters (I was only 4 at the time, LOL), and other than The Incredibles it's my favorite Disney movie.

--edit--

Since the box has the second movie too... how's it compare to the 2 disc SE of Toy Story 2? I could get both movies as SE, but it would cost more...

And before any of you mention DTS, I don't need it. I don't have HD anything, I'm more concerned about actual features at this point. Dolby Surround 5.1 is more than plenty since I don't even have surround sound. (But if one has a commentary the other doesn't, I would care. I just don't care if I miss out on DTS.)

Much of the extra's have the same information told in both versions, so it doesn't matter on the bonus material department. But are you sure you could find the Ultimate Toy Box for only 25 dollar? It's a box that has long been OOP (out of print) and it usually sells for about 70 bucks. Be careful that it is not a copy.
So you could go either way, but if I were you, I would go for the Ultimate Toy Box (but that's the DVD collector speaking).

So it's like $30. Still not a bad price, even if it is "used".

I just wanted to know exactly what the differences are... The thing is that I can get the 2 disc SE from the public library, if I needed to... but does the Toy Story Box have everything that edition does and then some?

Oh, and how do the extras compare to Toy Story 2's SE?
