Dragon balls, along with a janemba from japan (fat yellow one) and kabito toy, along with a namek play set and Bubbles. Would post a picture but my last image didn't pop up O.o

Just ordered Dragon Box 7. It's something that I've had my eye on for a long time now, and although the price was steep I was offered a little bit of discount so I took the offer. This means I'll own 1,3,5,6,7. Realistically this is the last one I'll be able to buy as the prices for 2 and 4 are ridiculous and I'm not prepared to pay the going rate. My only hope is for a great deal to pop up or a second release of them...but I can't see that happening at this stage.

Wish I'd purchased them all at the time, but there were different circumstances at the time. I had recently purchased the orange bricks and was still in college with little money, so I didn't feel like investing in them at the time. Had I known they'd have a limited release and run out of print fast, I would have jumped on them. But yes, I'm very happy to have 5/7 of the sets. That will do for now. :)

I wouldn't give up just yet, if within the next few years TOEI release the series on Blu-ray and Funimation acquire that release it is conceivable the Dragon Boxes (including 2 and 4) will drop in price because the entirety of Z will be more widely available in 4:3.
Do you have any info about international non-English broadcasts about the Dragon Ball anime or manga translations/editions? Please message me. Researching for a future book with Dragon Ball scholar Derek Padula :thumbup:

I guess that's true! The thing is, I would absolutely buy the series in its entirety again if it meant getting the complete series 4:3 on Blu-ray (like the level sets) even though I already own the orange bricks, season blu-ray sets and 5/7 Dboxes ha

Yeah, it's insane. That's actually a decent price for Box 4 considering some I've seen listed for it.

I saw that $90.00 Box 2, I decided against buying it because of the lack of a Dragon Book as they are nice collectables and when I have all 7 Boxes I don't want any missing pieces on the spine image.

Although I'm trying to keep my spends under $100 a box (for when I can find the remaining 5 ain around that price) because of college and having a loan to repay.

If I were you I'd jump on box 4. Little ding on the corner ain't shit I guess as long as the content inside is like new.

I got Resurrection "F" today. It's honestly a lot more entertaining than people made it seem. I might like it more than Battle of Gods, probably because people overhyped it.

Then again, I'm looking at all of this from a different, less personal perspective so that might contribute to it.

I had to cancel my Collectors Edition of ROF because I just couldn't afford it so I just ordered the regular edition. I don't think I'm missing out on much anyways in the CE. :?
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

Like a lot of people today, I managed to pick up a copy of Resurrection 'F' (the DVD/Bluray combo) today, and even gave it a watch with the girlfriend. Also got in my pre-ordered copy of Extreme Butoden, so I'll be giving that a play soon enough too.

So I finally got the last copy of Battle of Gods from Walmart ($15, cheapest I've seen it in store) and grabbed Revival F!

I'm still shocked Funimation released Revival of F so early - I didn't have the money at the time of it releasing, but I did today so yaaaay
