Well if there is a reasonably priced alternative, I can try that. Are you referring to the Japanese Dragon Box? If so I wouldn't be getting that because I watch my anime dubbed. It's a practicality thing because I can't see that well. But if there is another good English language release, I can try it out.dbboxkaifan wrote: The GT bricks are the cheapest way to acquire the series so if you don't want to spend too much then that's the way to go.

Re: What's your most recent Dragonball purchase?
The only alternatives would be the old long-since out-of-print singles, or yes, the Dragon Box. And while there are some pros to those old singles, (next-episode-previews, unfiltered image whereas the Green Bricks are somewhat blurred to get rid of the grain, if one is watching the Japanese version one also gets the Japanese credits and title-cards, which were omitted entirely on the Bricks) they also suffered from poor video-encoding, and did not have the option to watch the dub with the Japanese soundtrack.Nikkolas wrote:Well if there is a reasonably priced alternative, I can try that.

Re: What's your most recent Dragonball purchase?
So, it's only slightly Dragon Ball related, but while I was browsing Amazon for something else, I noticed that the cheaper copies of a few other things I'd been needing to pick up were about to be gone, so I went ahead and did an order I hadn't been planning on just yet. And so, this little gem of a game is on it's way to me at long last.

So uh why is Goku in his SSJ3 Kid form from GT, if this is based off manga publications?

Re: What's your most recent Dragonball purchase?
What? That photo looks exactly like the drawing out of the complete illustrations except without the halo. Idk if that was a joke about a non-dragon ball characterRetan wrote:So uh why is Goku in his SSJ3 Kid form from GT, if this is based off manga publications?

Now I that I look at it with my head turned your right, man I must be going blind in my old age....

That's awesome!
It's nice to get a better idea of how big Trunks really would be with his muscles pumped up to their limit.

Gamestop is the cheapest I found for PS4 , £ 39.97 inc free delivery, but I am not sure weather I want to buy this day one or not.dbboxkaifan wrote: On-topic: Been looking around to pre-order Xenoverse (PS4) but no real solid deal so far (there is one but the retailer hasn't confirmed if it comes with the Steelbook + DLC).

Re: What's your most recent Dragonball purchase?
Was going to post about this yesterday after I made the order, but as I'm sure a lot of other people noticed, the site seemed to go down for a while.
That aside, I put in an order to RightStuf to hopefully get in my girlfriend's Christmas gifts on time, but also managed to score some stuff for myself thanks to a Viz sale that was going on.
Dragon Ball: VizBig 2
Dragon Ball: VizBig 4
Dragon Ball: VizBig 5
Dragon Ball Z: VizBig 3
Cowa!
Sand Land
Toriyama all the things? Toriyama all the things! I already have the 1st and 3rd VizBigs for Dragon Ball, so now I'll have all of that portion of the manga in VizBig format; I also already have the 1st and 2nd 'Z' VizBig, so I'm well on my way to eventually having all of those too. And the other two, while not strictly related, go along with my wanting to have everything we've gotten released over here by Toriyama. Which...I think pretty much just leaves Jaco when it finally comes out, doesn't it? Er, barring the rest of Slump, which I do also need to get.

Re: What's your most recent Dragonball purchase?
A cel from September at Anime Weekend Atlanta...got it for $20

Despite the incorrect background it was well worth $20 (the frame is just what I had lying around I still need to get it properly matted but it'll do for now)

Also...gave into the Kanzenshuu peer pressure and got Dragon Box One a while back...and then just had to get the others!

Got all those bad boys for a steal on eBay (around $60 per box
) I think with that my shelf is complete...well until the next big thing, I guess...
