Looks like it's finally time for me to buy the Blue Bricks.

Same here, I've been thinking about re-buying these and at this price its quite the steal. Now to also get the movie 4-pack and I'll be good once again.

Someone already posted this. It could use it's own thread though. Easier to see now.

[Spoofer]

I figured I was too much of a lurker to make a new thread about it, but I'm glad someone else did for more people to see, lol. ^_^;;

[Craddle]

Since it has it's own thread now, I'll re-post what I said in the other thread. In more detail.

I think there is an underlying reason to why these are on sale for so cheap on not 1, but 2 online retailers. At close to $10 per season, they are practically giving them away. FUNimation might be trying to sell off a majority of their stock of these sets. They have been out for 2 years now. Hopefully they are planning to re-release DB in the near future. If it weren't for the zooming on these sets, I would have updated my collection from the 2-disc sets. I REALLY hope they plan to release DB DBoxes. It would be nice if they did that first in limited quantities, then went ahead with a Blu-Ray release.

We can dream, can't we?

To be honest, I'd say forget the Dragon Box and just go straight to the BD Release. While I've had the D-Box for the series, the overall presentation of the current BD sets has impressed me over the DVD releases.

The bad news is that Funimation doesn't have actual film masters for DB and GT as far as we know, only digibetas, and since film would be costly, I don't know if they would risk it on something that's not DBZ. Hopefully we do get BDs though, and actual remasters, not poor upscales. >.<

I would if they did the following: Included original title cards, NEP's, correct openings and endings and they upped the brightness a couple percent. (Based on the darkness of the DBZ BD's) (Not to mention the packaging on the DB DBoxes would be far superior.)

Since we know that probably wont happen, I'm hoping for a DB DBox. If it never does, (Which it probably wont) I'll eventually have to save up enough money for Toei's Dragon Box.

No! I just ordered some Blu-Ray movies for Christmas! Dang it! 54 Dollars for all 5 seasons! If it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have any

[okpank]

$54 dollars is so cheap, I could careless if they were released yet again. I'd probably still buy the next one even.

[BobZ]

Dammit, that is a steal! If only I had known earlier...
I already spent the majority of my salary on music, clothing and the Scot Pilgrim manga boxset. :/

[Gonstead]

Ahhhh phooey, I've practically spent all the money I have and probably won't be getting any til Xmas.

[BobZ]

Fudge it, ordered it!

[Rukura]

Has FUNimation ever released sets from both series at the same time? (aka. blue or green bricks while the orange bricks were coming out?)

Because that would kinda negate any Dragon Ball Blu-Ray release right now...and give us even more of our hopes of for the Dragon Boxes. (Specially now that they've been marketing all 3 releases of Z for quite some time now)

[GotenDaisuki]

Just ordered seasons 2, 4, and 5. All for just under $40.

[funrush]

My wallet is crying tears of joy.

[dragondyle]

It's a good deal! It's $63.95 through Amazon. You save $8.96

[dragonfist]

SInce I am not all that familiar with these sets can anyone post some comparison shots between these and the R2 Japanese DVD's? Thanks a bunch guys!
