Are these Blue Bricks bootlegs?

Post by KPike87 » Mon Apr 06, 2020 6:47 pm

So I was planning on picking up the Blue Bricks since I only have the singles, and are kinda "eh" quality to me when compared to the Z and GT singles (not to mention, the first one is censored). I found two listings for the whole series going for fifty bucks, but they definitely aren't the original packaging.

I didn't want to write them off at first because it would be cheaper to put them in standard DVD cases, which I could see Funi doing.

Fairly confident those are bootlegs.
DB, Z, and GT subbed are my "canon".

Those have got to be bootlegs, seeing as the legit versions are the fold out digipack cases that have the picture of Shenron/Shen Long on the spine and these ones obviously don't.
DB collection related goals as of now:

1.) Find decent priced copy of Dragon Box Z Vol. 4 (Done)

2.) Collect rest of manga

3.) Get rest of Daizenshuu (2-7)

Agreed, my Dragon Boxes aren't presented this way. As well, the original spines of the digipacks without the slipcovers form artwork of Shenron, which these don't do.

Bootlegs, albeit pretty dang good for bootlegs. got the entire seines for $20 bucks last year and gave it to my brother so he could finally force his lady friend to watch the original db.
