Okay, I was going to wait until I had a lot more stuff before posting this, because it's only pretty basic so far, but here we go anyway... I took these photos a few weeks ago (I'll note that I've bought about 70% of it in the last 12 months, so it is expansing)-

Anyway, that's pretty impressive, the only DB toys I have left are the Tenshinhan and Piccolo Crazy Bones.

Oh my god, I remember those DBZ Crazy Bones! Those were one of my first experiences with DB.

I remember I didn't know who Yajirobe and Raditz were, so due to their hair, I thought they were brothers. :lol:

Crazybones actually came out in America as well - in the UK they were released under he name of Gogos. Read more about them here!:

I actually don't have anything from the Cray Bones DB series - they are pretty highly sought after now though!

All the best,

Oh man, I had a few of those Crazy Bones years ago.... I'd forgotten all about them!

I wonder if they're still around somewhere? :?

And thanks, Oldphan. :)

I have no idea what the game on the left in the pictureis, but it seems to say "Windows" on it, so I'm guessing that it is the Windows release of the game. So I'm pretty sure that none of those games are for the Pippin, and yes, he is a hardcore fan... he even heads the French translation team for Toyble's DBAF.
Yup. I think you may be right about that, Rambo. There was two different versions of this program. The one on the right is definitely for the Pippin, though. I remember well what the cover looked like.

The last time I saw that on eBay was, like, 6 or 7 years ago and it was going for around $200 if I remember correctly.

But the box on the right clearly says "CD-ROM for Macintosh" in the top left corner...

Wow, great collection Kingdom Heartless! I have to say that :
Australian packaging > American packaging

Too bad that Season One's Spine doesn't fit in with the others. I like the Fat Packs a lot more than the shitty Digipaks we got.

Thanks!

The members here have inspired me to work harder on my collection, which is part of why it's expanding so much.

I want to start getting more stuff imported though.

And yeah, the fact that the spine image doesn't match up has bugged me for a while aswell.

Wow, very impressive. I've been wanting to see your collection for some time now, so thank you! Just what you've showed so far has lived up to (and surpassed) my expectations. Do you have any idea how many more parts it will take to cover your complete collection?

:!: I might actually end up needing your help someday by photographing some of those figures for a site I'm working on...

Ya, but it seems (I didn't even know this) that there are actually three versions, like LPPanther said. There was a PC version and a Macintosh version (shown in the picture) as well as a Pippin version. The Pippin version was not in that picture, and here is an image of the cover for you.

Here's a little album of tons of neat images of the cover, the back, the booklet and screenshots of the Pippin version:

I have to admit, it certainly is a guilty pleasure for me. :oops:

But I've always been the kind of guy who needs a vice, and Dragon Ball is as good a one as any.
