Thanks for the feedback :)
Wow! is that green guy single? :) what great information. My sons want the 2 or 3 disc edition for Christmas, lol.
Hi. Great first hub and welcome to Hubpages. Your topic is really good and very interesting and you wrote comprehensively on the topic. Just one suggestion though, you might want to break up some pretty long text (like the Special Edition) and put in other capsules in between them. Other than this, your hub looks great. Good luck in Hubpages!
hi, I am happy to first comment on your first article. I think that you covered well everything you need to discuss, and you are knowldegeable about it. Great first hub, continue to write informative ones! Welcome To HP!
