Why did Toei change Broly’s hair color?

I don’t mind the changes, but it wasn’t necessary. In fact, the old Bandai figures had him with gold hair, not green :think:. So, why the change? Original Broadcast TV Preview : https://imgur.com/QhnsXyB.jpg Theater & Home Release : https://imgur.com/XN26GCg.jpg Bandai Super Battle Collection Vo...

Re: It’s time for fans to come together and remaster the series properly.

Is it possible as an external company to licence the series? If, say, you lived in Canada, which I don’t THINK Funimation has the rights to, you could maybe get a scan of the (actual) original film and release it there. Or maybe convince Toei to hire you to remaster the series for THEM to sell? I u...

It’s time for fans to come together and remaster the series properly.

Ever since my SRTO hit, I’ve entertained the thought of investing $500,000+ of my personally money into remastering the entire series. I would like to hire a company or group of people to work on this under strict supervision. We need to preserve this series in the best possible quality. It’s time f...

I prefer Perfect Cell. IMO the art is fine, but the footage is not.

Re: Funimations 30th anniversary collectible home video release

Durr, me dumb. I meant Shueisha. They are the biggest problem, imo, they are the ultimate rights holder aren't they? They should have clamped down on the likes of Toei and Bandai's bullshit before things spiralled out of control to where we are now, Toei lied themselves into censoring the movie BDs...

OK,

Re: Funimations 30th anniversary collectible home video release

Won't be that great. DNR'd and muffled audio, plus no NEPs. This is remaster is being done by FUNimation which should be clear for those who have read their blog post. I am fully aware of what I'm going to get here. I don't need NEPs, I already said my piece about being able to tolerate the DNR, an...

Re: Funimations 30th anniversary collectible home video release

I won’t be buying this set as much as I’d like to, unless it changes. But if FUNi decides to improve this release the way it ought to be, then I’ll buy it for a higher price on eBay, or wait until someone uploads it to a piracy website. Until then, I’m saving $350 8)

Pessimistic much 🤔 No realist, they are a company? what want a company? make money They already used their taste for the remaster (if we can called this joke like that) it's how they think it should look why would they change their mind now? they already have almost 3000 preorder of the bad release...

Re: Funimations 30th anniversary collectible home video release

I’ve been looking forward to a nice blu ray release of Dragonball Z since the cancellation of the levels and to see that it’s this, is just disappointing. With that said I really think that emailing funimation is helping. I mean yeah the preorders will be reaching 3000 real soon, but if it wasn’t f...

@ Ajay , I know we’ve had some disagreements(?) in the past, but I want to personally thank you for not only making one YouTube video in response to FUNimations treatment of the show, but TWO. https://youtu.be/6QZDHVwpHZo Whether they listen and do the right thing or not, you did a good job and the ...

Thanks! I tried to be polite but also get the point across. I also had username issues, then it just magically worked after trying a few times.. I used something other than Chrome and now it worked.

Re: Funimations 30th anniversary collectible home video release

A FUNi rep, yes, but they're not involved with the remaster in any way. They were getting a ton of backlash after that comment and responded with the image below. They changed their username by that point but it is most definitely the same person. They have no real bearing on this release. Though i...

Re: Funimations 30th anniversary collectible home video release

So if you reserve the set, you get a bunch of extra stuff, and if they reach 3,000 orders, they'll ask for another 3,000? :think:. I can't justify buying this until I see improvement!

Re: Funimations 30th anniversary collectible home video release

You honestly believe FUNi will “reverse” their remaster to look more like the original (or as we believe Level Set)? I doubt it. They officially posted “before” and “after”, which the “after” is trash in comparison imo. I think this is what we’ll get, unfortunately.
