Just out of curiosity, how many chapters do they contain?
It depends. For the time being, they seem to be releasing one arc per "legend", although I'm sure they will be split up when we get to the longer arcs. Edition 1 contains the entirety of the Pilaf arc, and that's 23 chapters if I'm counting correctly. There's about 390 pages. For legend 2, we get the 21st Tenkaichi Budokai arc, which is 31 chapters and about 500 pages. They are pretty lengthy!

I mean, you're pretty open about looking at cartoon porn. Why would you do that? It's fiction. The proportions of these women are not possible to reach in reality.

Really? I wish I could find a good price for box 4, as it is the only one I need. I did recently find a good price on box $75 in great condition. Needless to say I snagged that while I had the chance.

I thought I might be spending the same for all 7 until I found the rarest, box 2, for only $75 when it normally goes for at least $200+. Keep searching man and you'll find a good deal. I only hope I can get box 4 for a reasonable price.

So, Wal-mart decided to utterly fail me by not getting any copies of TMNT: Mutants in Manhattan for PS3 (or any system, actually), so I've had to resort to ordering it from Amazon...where it's now going to take like a week or two to get here apparently. I has a sad.

To hit free shipping though, I decided to finally bite the bullet and pick up a copy of Derek Padula's 'It's Over 9000: When Worldviews Collide'. I'd been considering nabbing it for a long while now and just never got around to it, and it put me only like $0.50 over what I needed for free S&H, so it was the perfect order padding. If I enjoy it as much as I expect based on other people's comments on it, I'll probably start to slowly pick up the other stuff he's written on the series thus far.

Not sure if you know this but Amazon raised it's free shipping prices. Normally it was anything 30-35 bucks or more but in a effort to get more people to use Prime, they bumped it up to 50 with the exception being books so just take that into account when ordering anything other than books. Also the free shipping only constitutes on the single item. Even if you bought four books for a total of 40 bucks youd still have to pay shipping and handling because the individual book wasnt over 35 bucks. Again I'm sure you probably know this but just in case I figured Id let you know.

Oh I'm aware, yeah (thanks for the heads up though), cuz it's annoyed me ever since they did it. It used to be so easy to nab a couple of things from Amazon every other week or so, but that increase margin has put a bit of a cramp in my style. Still a worthwhile ordering service, just not one I can make use of as often as I used to, especially when only certain items even count towards free shipping in the first place.

The game was about $39.88, the book's $9.99, for a total of $49.87. It showed a redacted shipping cost of $5.48 before I finished placing the order (and still shows up now), so it managed to trigger somehow or another at least. :thumbup:

I have just bought the entire Dragon Ball manga in my native tongue, danish. I already own the anime in the form of the Banana Bricks, Blu Ray season sets, Green Bricks and the movie collections, aside from the Manga UK Blu Rays of Battle of Gods and Resurrection F. :D

I am happy to own the manga in my native language though, as it is not in print any more. So let me show it off:

Bought these off Kanzenshuu Member Captain Awesome.

Been searching for this particular Dragon Ball set for quite some time now.. while the 2-Disc releases are easy to get hold of, the outer boxes on the other hand..
I used to have the Aussie 'Fatpack' of the series, which was just two giant Amaray cases, but I really wanted the individual cases and covers.
