Online retailers such as Amazon Japan have begun including Tadayoshi Yamamuro‘s cover art for the upcoming first three “Dragon Ball: The Movies” remastered Blu-ray releases, each set for release 02 November 2018:
Also provided is art for the box that will store all eight volumes, set to be included with initial run of the first volume:
Volume 1 will contain Dragon Ball Z (DBZ Movie 1) and The World’s Strongest Guy (DBZ Movie 2); Volume 2 will contain A Super Decisive Battle for Earth (DBZ Movie 3) and Super Saiyan Son Goku (DBZ Movie 4); Volume 3 will contain The Incredible Strongest vs. Strongest (DBZ Movie 5) and Clash!! 10,000,000,000 Powerful Warriors (DBZ Movie 6).
December and January will see another three and two Blu-ray volumes, respectively, rounding out the company’s new remastering of the original 17 theatrical films produced during the series’ original serialization.
While no international release of the films’ new remastering has been announced, Toei’s limited theatrical run of the eighth Dragon Ball Z film in America was clearly based on this new print.
The films last saw a home video release in Japan within 2006’s remastered “Dragon Box: The Movies” DVD box set which was subsequently broken out as individual DVD releases over the course of 2008-2009.
