I had read some of the English versions in Viz's WSJ, but they look so much better in print! Really happy these are coming out - they do not replace the original manga for me, but I think they make for a really neat supplement, a nice way to reanalyze Toriyama's artwork.
*SNIP*
What are THOSE???
Are they by any chance the new COLORED version of the manga?
Do you live behind a rock or something? (Just kiddin'
)
Not really. Not keeping up with new DB stuff for a while now,
precisely because I have a life and don't live behind a rock ''or something''.
I used to be a lot more interested back then...
But if you are saying this because I have missed the target as to what this product actually is by like a hundred miles, then I accept the joke.

Glad I bought it for a low price (£5) because normally it's between £10 to £20, or even more. Awesome.

Nice find
dbboxkaifan! I'm planning to buy some of the Japanese PS2 games; kinda like what you did for Advanced Adventure. Too bad the PS2 is region locked.

I mean, you're pretty open about looking at cartoon porn. Why would you do that? It's fiction. The proportions of these women are not possible to reach in reality.

Sigh, I used to have those and a lot of the VHS box sets and while they don't compare to the awesomeness of my 7 Dragon Boxes, I do miss having that awesome spine art on my shelf. Now I know the Dragon Boxes have great art on the side too, but its just so stretched out and broken up by the yellow of the boxes. Also I can't really display the spine art on the DB and DBGT season sets without getting rid of their slip cases...

My girlfriend just got me one of these for my birthday. I was surprised at how thick and fleece-like it is!

I felt that was a huge deign flaw in the orange bricks
Speaking of.. got season 9 at target..it was on sale because it was new..but the slip case must have been damaged so they rewrapped it. It also has the book!

I recently bought DRAGON BALL Z KAI: PART ONE [DVD] brand new sealed for £6 but I'm probably going to just sell it for a bit more than I paid for.
I've already got DBZ Kai Parts 1 to 4 on Blu-ray, so not much point having this, unless for collectibles purpose (which BD's better for collectibles too).

Psst! Hey you! Don't go tellin' nobody, but...
Full coverage (on the
main site, naturally) is forthcoming, but I think people will be surprised by what's in this volume, and what
isn't.

Bought this little figure to have next to the gaming consoles, basically.
It just cost me £1.04 ($1.56) from eBay, a bootleg yeah, but looks good enough and cheap so couldn't care less it's fake. If it were something like physical media then I'd worry.

Two of my most recent purchases. Chozenshuu 1 and Queen's Blade Cattleya. They both arrived the same day.
