Actually Roshi is ridding on top of him. (Wow, when I say that out loud it doesn't sound right).

GT Kid Goku art = Yes. Am currently tempted to pick this up, even after the disappointing cover.

Overall, the book came as a disappointment for me. The way the images were pasted onto it, looked sloppily done, not very professional. They didn't include many sketches or concept designs and even in the pages that did have them, they were too tiny. They had pages which didn't even have Goku in them, and the artwork was recycled and had nothing really new or spectacular; there were even some Goku-centric images that I was expecting to be there but weren't added, like this one:

I give the book a 2/10, I wouldn't recommend it.

The layout on some of those scans does look a little odd; but I still want it! X3
The artwork looks like there's stuff in there I'd want nice quality images of.

This looks awesome! Glad to see the DragonBox artwork from DB and GT! Any from the Z or movie boxes?

Apart from the Roshi riding Tenshinhan image and the cover, I've seen all of those images before. I even have some saved on my computer. :P

Hmm, is that Goku from the DragonBox doing a Kamehameha the one in the FUNimation season 5 trailer?! :shock:

Edit: Hmm, I don't think it is... perhaps it's just an edited version of that picture. Oh well...

The word "KAI" means in the old North Germanic language Frisian "Kämpfer engl. Fighter" respectively "Krieger engl. Warrior"!
