Growing up in the 90s, Tiny Toon Adventures is pretty much ingrained into every kid who came home after school, slipped off their shoes and flipped the channel to watch this classic cartoon every weekday afternoon. Of course watching it continuously in my youth well into the 90s up to my late 20's, I have come across How I Spent My Vacation quite a few times over the years. I remember just watching this for a hour and a half watching Buster & Babs rafting down a river, Plucky & Hamton travelling on the road to a theme park and other fun vignettes of summer travel, with a big grin, laughing a load and securing a place in the annals of my personal Hall of Nostalgia. Of course wanting to own it, I tried for years to find an OOP VHS copy, but was selling past $30, so had to do my best with some clips on YouTube and reruns on occasion on some 90s retro block. Finally, Warner Bros. came to their senses and released this classic special on DVD and finally satisfied my craving of the past two decades. Of course I wasn't expecting a full blown release of this, but the PQ does leave a lot to be desired. It does look ok, but this needs a nice remaster to make it excellent, and not just merely adequate. The audio is your standard 2.0 track and nothing major of note although in the scene in the theater where T.H.U.D. plays sounds pretty nice as I remember it. The extras only include trailers for other WB products which disappoints considering this was a big success on TV and on video (Was even planned for cinemas at one point) and could have included a commentary, a retrospective or etc. Sigh, at least it satisfies my nostalgia and love of all things 90s and was extremely cheap!

Exactly as described. It’s dvd so the quality is not HD but it’s the only way to get the movie physically.

I remember watching this when I was a kid. It is just another great example of all the random cool things you can find at Best Buy without even trying :)
