GASP!!! So beautiful. Mine still seems to be somewhere in between "Processing" and "Shipped yesterday" limbo. Hopefully I'll get it soon! And isn't the Dragon Book cover art the one used on the original DBox Dragon Book?

Looks like they've skipped a couple of the Japanese discs in term of art in order to make sure the disc art stays relevant to the episodes. Namely Form 2 Freeza from Japanese Disc 14 and Tenshinhan from Japanese Disc 16. Also, the American disc art doesn't exactly mirror the Japanese disc art, but it's pretty close as always in the case of disc art not being the exact same.
I realy like that Super Saiyan Son Goku disc, too! I actually like it a bit better than the Japanese disc art!
My DBox should be here tomorrow. I've been keeping track of it on UPS's website.
After this one I probably won't be getting them as early. I'll probably start buying them at Best Buy since we'll have one in my city by the time DBox Z 4 comes around.
Can someone take a picture of just disc 15 (Super Saiyan Son Goku) for me?

May I see the scene where it shows Goku who just turned Super Saiyan after he told Gohan to leave? It's the one where his teeth are showing and everything.

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.

"Freeza". "Karin". "Artificial Humans". I knew there was a reason I loved these releases.
Too bad the Kai release is seeing this happen...

Looks like Disc 16 (eps 99-106) or Disc 18 (eps 120-126) will be the disc that I watch the most on this set. I tend to skip around a lot but I usually find one disc that I really like the episodes on.
On DBox Z 1 it was Disc 5 (eps 29-35) which covered Goku, Gohan, Krillin, and Yajirobe vs. Nappa and Vegeta. I really like the pacing of this part of the fight in Z. Plus, Goku vs. Nappa is an amazing fight and a favorite of mine!
On DBox Z 2 it was Disc 10 (eps 64-70) which covered Vegeta vs. Reacoom through Goku vs. Ginyu before the Body Switch. Vegeta vs. Reacoom was a really well-animated fight with great music and Goku vs. Reacoom, Jees, and Baata was what made me a fan of Z in the first place.
On DBox 3 it'll either be the latter part of the Goku vs. Freeza fight just before the episode where Namek explodes due to Goku's nonchalant awesomeness while fighting 100% Freeza on a planet that's about to explode or it'll be Trunks vs. Freeza through when #19 and #20 first appear. I love the Trunks vs. Freeza fight and I love the driving episode!
EDIT: Thanks for the pic, Greenman!
