Could it be bootleg? It looks nice though.

I would have to say yes. I think having kid Goku and Pan on a Dragon Ball Z set would be the first sign of a bootleg.

Do you even have to ask?

Actually it looks like crap. Neither little Goku or Pan (at that age) are even in DBZ.

Edit: Capsuleman beat me to it. :?

Yea, that picture of Pan is pretty sketchy. I don't think the kinto-un was even in GT.

It has a picture of Kid Goku and GT Pan on a DBZ Boxset, so of course it isn't bootleg! :P

Haha ok guys I get it I kind of knew it was a bootleg , but I just wanted to make sure some country's real company would actually be retarted to mess up. Also that probably is the worst bootleg out there, putting kid Goku and Pan ( on top of a kinto-un hahaha) from GT in a Dragon Ball Z set. By the way I meant it looks nice for the pictures and stuff even though they are way off for being the Dragon Ball Z dvd's.

Some of the bootlegs out there can look real convincing. I've heard those "Blue Box" ones actually look quite professional with their packaging and all--of course I've never seen one in person. From the pictures I've seen though, their covers weren't that great looking to me...

Other than the subtitles, they are quite professional. The bitrate is only a bit lower than the Dragonboxes due to each disc having about one extra episode, but they are still quite nice. The subtitles just kill them though. Just get the official releases from FUNimation. Their perfect subtitles make up for the horrible video.
