Y'all better hurry. Amazon only has one left for Box 5 and six left for Box 4. Rightstuf appears to have a lot left for every volume except two, but they're $45 each.

I think it safe to say if people want DBOX now you are going to have to pay a lot like you do if you want coola double feature steelbook.

...I don't see the problem. RightStuf has every box except the second one still in stock, so you can easily get them from there before they vanish off the face of the Earth('s stores).

Anyway, I more or less knew this was the case judging by the rapid disappearance of Box 2 from almost every retailer, so I can't say I'm particularly surprised that it's now been made official. Ah well, at least I managed to get this entire release before it went out of print.

Yeah and not just because it low numbers but also because it has some of the best Buu episodes.

Ever sense this Topic was created, it's been fun reading the comments of everyone, it sounds like Godzilla is coming to destroy our Dragon-boxes and people are runing for their lives :lol:
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

Dragon Ball is serious business. :lol:

My sister and brother-in-law got me the first set for my birthday last year and that's been the only one I had. The second is on its way, and I think I may order the third one today. Next paycheck is going towards a couple more.

It's fine to not be in a hurry.
Some of us actually want them (before they're 200 smacks on ebay), though.

Damn, I only have the first 3.

I'm planning on getting 4 and 5 after Christmas, and 6 and 7 after my Birthday (End of Feburary).

Recon they'll still be available then...?

Might be but it will be harder to get I would really suggest getting as soon as possible. I would go after 5 first as it seems the hardest to get after 2.

I was funny the first time, no harm in poking fun at it. Insisting on it even more a second time...not so much. The picture didn't help. Some of us were in a hurry already and yeah, knowing the chance of not being able to get them made it worse. "Watch out! Godzilla's coming to get yo stuff!" ain't helpful.

I hope you don't take this the wrong way, I'm not trying to attack you or anything...I'm just kinda on edge hoping to be able to get all 7 in time :(
