Dragon Ball VHS box set?

Post by The One and Only Nam » Fri Oct 02, 2015 3:30 pm

I'm trying to collect all the original Dragon ball vhs tapes and I was wondering if they were ever released in a box set form like most of the Dragon Ball Z tapes. So, have they ever been released as a box set?

FUNimation's release? The first Dragon Ball TV series had its VHS release canceled somewhere in the Red Ribbon Army arc, I believe.

The only "box set" was their original dub of episodes 1-13 + Movie 1.

Dragon Ball: Tien Shinhan - Tournament seem to be the last VHS of the first DB series to be released in 2002. By 2002, the VHS market was pretty much dying down due to the rise of the popularity of DVD's.

Also, I've noticed that many of the Dragon Ball episodes were released in the uncut format? Were there copies that were in the edited format?
