Are There Non-Steelbook Variants of the 4:3 Blu Rays?

Post by KPike87 » Sat Apr 16, 2022 8:33 pm

I know Manga UK sold some, but the only place I saw selling them just listed the region as 'B', which is very not useful as an American. The steelbooks are also getting pricey and, to be honest, look like shit; I have season 1 with it and I hate it.

I mostly just want these so I can have the later series with Kikuchi + the English dub and the UUE dub (I'm currently collecting the singles and have the first two Dragon Boxes).

As someone who owns the Manga UK Blu-Rays I can confirm they are Region A/B and will work on any US Blu-Ray players. They also include the in-house redub from the Ultimate Uncut singles with the Kikuchi score.

I say go for it, Zavvi or base.com would probably be the best site to buy them from.
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:
