Oh wow, if Daimao wrote those episode summaries...I wonder if he'll finally complete his website.

Funimation, you have truly outdone yourselves. Can't wait for the 17th....

I see..

I compared the pictures from the ones in Kaizentai.

The "early days" was expanded to 2 pages (in the original DBox it was 1)

Also in the original they had 4 episode summaries on each page but they have 2 here.

I think it's safe to say that they are going to have all the databook info spread out across all 7 boxes.

That's just awesome. So are there any English credits on the disc as extras, does the English track have Cha-La as the opening, and what happens for the previews on the English track?

Where's this guy at? We need a Q & A session right now.

The menu--in addition to being awesome and copied from the Japanese Box--get's extra points for the TFS reference.

So..... clear...

I... cannot stand the amazing clarity, and the box and book... I need to change pants.

*changes*

Well, I guess Mike better start eating his shorts... because someone got it early.

Amazing stuff dude, huge props with posting up pics and all the goodies. You are my hero!

It looks incredible, and I want it a whole hell lot right now. But I'm holding off 'til Christmas. And even thought I've seen these episodes so many times already, it'll still feel like I'm watching them for the first time.

Can I just say... I'm honestly surprised they didn't just throw the cover image of Goku onto each of the discs. I was seriously scared they might do the same thing they've done with the season sets. Hahaha

Hot stuff is hot, though... I have to say.

Super old image is suuuuuuper old.

LOL! Greatest post ever on this forum!

The background video is of Gohan elbowing Vegeta in the eye.

"Why is it always my God damned eye?!"

By copied you mean FUNimation used the original Japanese menu as a reference and completely redrew them, using different footage and screen shots? Then yeah, that's what they did.

TFS FTW. LOL!

I may have to drive up to Dallas / Fort Worth and go to FUNimation and say, "YOU GUYS FINALLY DID IT! IT TOOK YOU 8 YEARS BUT YOU FINALLY DID IT!!"

Well now...

I see we have room for a fool in this discussion.

Out with you, Jacob!

I'm trying to compare the images from our Dragon Box to those from Kanzentai and I'm wondering if FUNimation kept the screenshots that were under the DVD's?

Here's the original DVD art from the Japanese DragonBox:
