Hello,
I am trying to create a video collage from VHS to VHS, but certain films am getting a bouncing image. Are there ways around this? I am assuming it has to do with loss of image stabilizer when recording from VHS to VHS, and something to do with different speeds. But any help/knowledge/direction with this sort of thing would be super helpful.
Thanks!

Sounds like you are getting a typical weak composite signal. This is common when doing analog to analog transfers.
Also, it could be the Macrovision copy protection being triggered. -
Also, it's 2012. I invite you to explore the fine tools offered in the modern digital age.

Yeah, even if you ultimately HAVE to end up on VHS (because of a grandma/friend/client needing only that), it really makes sense to capture and then edit digitally and then roll the edited copy back out to a new VHS.
VHS->VHS without any intervening TBC, is just compounding a problem. And you'll find that, unless you have flying erase heads, multideck control and synchronization, you're edits would look like crappy glitches.

TBC = time base corrector, cleans up sync signals and fixes horizontal judder.
