King Piccolo Saga Part 3? Dragonball DVD Help

[TheLegendary117]

Ok, I was at Suncoast this weekend, F.Y.E to most of you, and found these Dragonball DVD's. I have never seen them before. I have the full American Dragonball DVD collection and have never seen or even heard of these before. I looked through the DVD guide and did some research and couldn't find anything at all. I'm debating on whether or not to go back and buy them. They were $40+ a piece and they were used. I didn't have the cash on me at the time but if they are rare or something, Ill go back. Was there another set that had a limited release or what's the deal here? Anyone at all?



This was priced wrong. When I had asked about it, the guy said it was actually $45

Looks like a halfway-competent bootleg to me. Such a product was never released.

That's what I figured but I had also figured that the staff would be smart enough to recognize that. One of the guy's, who works there, is really intelligent with anime DVD's so I wasn't sure. I thought maybe it was a limited release like the "Dragonball Z Uncut" DVD's were before it stopped and went to the Remastered Seasons

That's actually some pretty good-looking stuff for a bootleg. But I think some of the key indicators is the immature-sounding tagline of Uncut Perfect Edition and the fact that everything seems to be labeled "King Piccolo Saga" even though most of the pictures come from a much earlier part of the series.

Ya, the picture with the 4 disks, the background pictures are from the actual DVD covers from different saga's.

For a bootlegs those sets actually look pretty nice. Kind of lame that someone probably got away with selling these to the store though.

So everyone is saying bootleg? If anyone finds anything on these that MIGHT make them legit, let me know

There's... nothing to say about it. They were never made like this. No official products like this exist. There's no company logos on them. They aren't legit.

Ok, I guess it's a good thing I didn't buy them then

You should probably tell the store it's a bootleg. If they don't care, just take a pen and write BOOTLEG on the back of it. We don't want uninformed Dragonball fans to buy bootlegs.

Must be a newbie at SunCoast today. I did actually call to tell them and the guy said they weren't bootleg because he was able to scan them into their system to see that they are, in fact, legit DVD's.....

As others have said, those are definitely bootlegs. I see them on ebay all the time.

Ya, I can definitely see that now, comparing them to the real ones.

I actually have one of those bootlegs, and it doesn't even contain the King Piccolo Saga. It contains the uncut Emperor Pilaf Saga that Funimation could not release until recently. The seller claimed that it was an official release of the King Piccolo Saga Part 2, but once it arrived in the mail it became clear that it was indeed a bootleg (and didn't even have the right title).

I'm going to try and find the time to go back this week and show them that they are bootlegs and see if maybe I can take them off their hands for free. We will wait and see

[Drabaz]

Even if you convince them that it's a bootleg, I doubt they'll give it to you for free. Bring a pen .

I've seen these on eBay as well.

By the way, that Suncoast looks awesome. Like they actually have anime merchandise.

they have a huge area dedicated to anime stuff. its really cool but the store itself isn't nearly as big as some of the FYE stores I have seen

[KKZ]

I have both of those bootleg DVD sets as well. I wonder if I can buy more from eBay and dupe my FYE too...
