I started my collection with Dragon Ball Z Movie 2 back in the day with the Ocean Dub. I found it at Wal-Greens in the bargin bin for $10. I was excited that it was uncut. :lol: Ah, those were the times to get excited about uncut. Now it's just a normal thing.

I started my collection with the Trunks saga VHS tapes. I bought those censored because at the time I purchased the first one, I had no idea that there was an uncensored version, and then after that I wanted to make sure the art on the side of the box was the same. I bought those when cartoon network began rerunning the entire series, so I could stay ahead of the curve. I stopped collecting VHS around the time that cartoon network caught up, during the Majin Buu saga. What an odd coincidence. Aside from my video library, my collection is fairly small, a few shirts, action figures, and a few posters.

Most likely Budokai 1 on the Gamecube like my good friend Rory, actually I bought it because I had borrowed it from him :)

Edit: Oh wait I think I bought Final Bout before Budokai 1.

Sadly, with pretty terrible dub-only bootlegs from eBay (Oh well, only $20 for the whole series lol), because I didn't know anything about DBZ DVD releases at the time. But now I have the Orange Bricks and lots of figures. I'm also going to get the American Dragon Box(es), and if I start making some o' dat papah, the older FUNi singles + box sets and the old VHS + box sets just to have them (All the VHS spines all lined up in my closet will look so badass, I can't wait).
