My Daizenshuu 4 arrived, which made my day perfect since it was an unexpected arrival. It's strange because I ordered Daizenshuu 7 a day before I ordered that one and it hasn't come yet. I guess it will be here tomorrow, hopefully.

I recently picked up the re-release of UB22 and a copy of Legends.

Now I just need to pick up a copy of Final Bout.

I found DBZ Movie 1 DragonBox Single at Book-off for $15. The only downside was the busted case. Too bad those cases aren't exactly common in the US.

The first DBZ Dragonbox. We just finished watching the first disc, it's beautiful.

Lucky.


Sadly I haven't had the money to make any DB purchases lately, but I am considering buying the GT season 1 set.

VIZ DBZ Volumes 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.

Two or Three more (whenever Freeza is finished up) and I'm taking a break. Maybe during that time I'll pick up Daizenshuu 1 instead of just staring longingly at it whenever I go to B'n'N.

Is that a trick question? Start from the beginning, of course! :D

Very nice-looking packaging on those.

Looks great, Castor! Let us know how edited they are. Although I have a lot of the Viz SJ ones like that and while there are 1 or two things, I didn't find them that noticeable or distracting.

Really nice touch putting the spine images on the boxes.

Even though I'm collecting the Vizbig, I kinda want these too.

I'm with you on that.

Also:

How sturdy are these boxes? I'm guessing these seal back up for storage purposes, or something like that?

The boxes are actually quite sturdy and close with velcro on the tops. The handles are extremely convenient.

From what I've scanned through so far, it is censored since I remember the original manga having way more blood when Vegeta chopped off Guldo's head. I'm sure many of the other things like the flipping of the bird are also censored.

My SJ copy doesn't have much blood in that part either, so maybe they're the same.
