Recently ordered all 5 Dragonball Blue Bricks and just now ordered the Bardock/Trunks double feature DVD.

I now own the entire series and movies 100% legit. :D

Not quite 100%, you're missing the film Battle of the Gods, still.

I can't wait for FUNimation to announce BotG Blu-ray release, hopefully this year. :)

If Funimation did announce BoG being on Blu-Ray, I might make an exception to buy it on Blu-Ray instead of DVD.

...Curses your right!!! Chances are I'd end up getting both a DVD and Bluray Version. Not everyone I know has a Bluray player yet. Even I only got a PS3 a few months ago.

Wait...do Bluray's have region codes.

Yeah BD's do have region coding but so does DVDs.

FUNimation's more friendly with making BD's Region B than DVD's Region 2. FUNi's Dragon Ball Kai + DBZ Level sets were all Region B.

DVD players are cheap and pretty easy to modify to make them play every region. I have no idea about Bluray's :/

Would these Bluray's work on a European PS3?

You're in Europe UK, so your region is Region B, and yes it does work on a EU PS3.

If it didn't I wouldn't have bought DBK Parts 1-4.

Was just about to buy up the DBZ viz bigs when I noticed that volumes 4 and 5 recently have become scarce and their prices have shot up. I remember there being a thread about this not too long ago.

I'm sure there will be more in stock soon and the prices will go back to normal. Now when I went here:

http://www.booksamillion.com/search?id= ... search.y=0

Seams like they don' have um' either, even though at first I though they did. It doesn't say "in stock", like the rest, just "available: usually ships within 7 days", which to me means when they get it they'll ship it. :problem:

I believe this is more or less normal. A few weeks ago they were all in stock and at a normal price, but now 4 and 5 are rare and expensive. :think:

Something similar seams to be happening with the new movie packs as well...

Soppa Saiyjins from Dorgou Ballru Zetto is my favorite transformation everah, especially when Trounksoru did it in front of Seru and when Bejita did it when he faced Jingonigen-hachigo. But for real, I use the FUNi pronunciation. - Soppa Saia People

The Kai and Levels do, the movies don't as for DVD players mine is hell, I can't modify it, so I ended up playing my region 1 dvds in my PC, but it's not as good as it would be if I could have modded my dvd player.
Next to get; Leged of Saiyan figures and Freeza's force

If anyone sees
Any of the Legend of Saiyan line going cheapish
Or any other Banpresto DBZ figure :)

If anyone has a cooler steelbook dvd that wants to sell it (prefer new but used is fine) when/if the dragon box movies comes out contact me :)

Bonus points! If anyone can figure out what my purchase was based on this shot! Lmao

God, I'm such a geek if I get this right lol. My guess is: Gohan holding his arm after it was hit by Cell's Mankakosappo.

Very close! Though it is after that scene now that his arm is "fixed" it is this.(Excuse me that it isn't set up yet. Just took a picture after it dried)I also had to sand down Goku's arm ><

I'll have it set up nicely and "show off my dragon ball crap" when I finish. I moved a lot of stuff around since then ^_^
I think I'm gonna go with the Manga version behind the anime version(please forgive the bad scanlation I have my
Kanzenban scanned and touched it up already on another computer)

Bought "Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2 (Xbox 360)" Promo Copy, the promotional copies are usually handed out before the retail edition is out so it definitely comes with the original music.

I already have one with RB2's Yamamoto music, but this one's to re-sell.

Mega64's Rocco said something that fits this (watch Mega64 Gooper -- Rocco's last words in the video), however, it's a bit too offensive to post here.

Was it 221203670017 on ebay? If it was you're lucky I wasn't home in time, I was the £6.50 bid intending to put my true max in at the last minute.
Damn you. it's the only Promo left I need on the 360 of Dragon Ball games.

Yep. That was the one.

Only paid £8.50, pretty good deal as it normally is on sale for more than this price.
