Me too! With so many action figures on so little shelves, it makes me wonder if they actually have fallen over in a domino-effect-esque way.

Well, it's not much compared to some of the other awesomeness on the past page or so. But I added FUNimation's DragonBall Movie Box to my collection today (I saw it and snagged it at FYE). I'm watching Path to Power as I type this. Ah, so good. The classic story elements, the crisp new animation, the gratuitous Bulma pantyshots...

Heh, funny. I watched Path To Power last night. Dragonball goodness with, yeah, crisp new animation. Very good stuff. 8)

@ DaemonCorps: Yup. That's the poster, alright. :wink:

I just noticed something in Sleven's DVD set. What is the disc that has "Vegeta Saga Discs 1-5" written on the side? :? I know that there is the UUE series, but it isn't in 1 DVD case, and you have the remastered set, so either I'm missing something here or I'm just stupid... :oops:

Either a custom cover or one of the many bootlegs I spotted. :D

Unfortunately, I'm guilty as charged. However, in my defense, let me add that I was unaware of the authenticity of the set prior to purchasing it. And yes, I should of know better. Oh, well...

Don't feel bad, I accidentally picked up a bootleg myself once; tricked into thinking it was the official hong kong set.

I'm amazed that I haven't seen a single Super Battle Collection figure, yet.

Hmm... I'm trying to decide if the figure I bought in Japan last year is from the same line as those...

It has Goku in his costume from Yardrat sitting atop his spacepod.

Is it from the same series? I notice all yours are sitting atop a dragonball...

Major props for the Green Goblin in the background, there. I have the same one.

Yep, they're from the same line. While most of the figures sit on to pof dragonballs, a couple of them are different. Some of the Saiyan figures are sitting on their respective space pods, and I'm pretty sure I remember seeing a chibi Goku standing on Kintoun.

The rarest of the rare from my collection, and mind you I've been collecting since 1996.

The Three Super Saiyans, out of the box because my friend who sold them to me was once a stupid kid that actually wanted to play with his toys. Pardon the dust, I don't upkeep my stuff that much anymore.

A real Dragon Ball and according to the package, it's the "Real size ver." Turns out Dragon Balls are actually super bouncy, rubber balls.
Image

The Akira Toriyama Exhibition catalogue. Weighing in at 144 pages, I wonder if this was given out during the exhibition or if it was sold. A really cool part of this catalogue is that it's written in both Japanese and English (good English mind you!). How many people actually own this book?
Image

Last but not least, my Japanese Capsule Corp mesh trucker cap. It's official merchandise with a DBZ tag and everything. Tag is the 2nd pic, kinda hard to make out.

Sweet, no?

:shock: You have the limited edition Super Battle Collection figures?! Those were really limited. I could never find them.

eienmic,

Props for having the Movie 7 3-pack! Where and when did you get that? I'm also really interested about your Toriyama Exhibition book, I've been wanting to get it for ages. Where did you get yours? What was the price range? And do you have any tips on finding a copy in this day and age? I'm a sucker for stories about rare finds. :D

Thanks in advance!
