Both of the super exciting guide volumes, the Son Goku Densetsu Kanzenban era guidebook and the new Extreme Battle Collection book arrived at my door today. I ordered Neko Majin at the same time, but it took a few days longer to ship.

I've only thumbed through them so far, but am I the only one that prefers Nakatsuru's original Burdock design (that was pictured in Son Goku Densetsu) over Toriyama's?, I prefer the revised designs for the rest of the crew, but for whatever reason I like Burdock's hair.

Last week, I pre-ordered DragonBoxZ 4 and DBZKai Part 2 from RightStuf, and on Friday, I picked up DB Extreme Battle Collection Round 1 and The Golden Warrior artbook from my local Kinokuniya Bookstore. Those two cost roughly $32 USD. I absolutely LOVE the artbook. It's so great! :D

EDIT: Oh, I forgot, I also ordered the R2 Dragon Box release of DBZ Movie 13 from Play-Asia.com

Not trying to be rude, but that isn't exactly a good deal. Especially if it was Used.

Also, that DB Dragon Box looks awesome, I hope that if FUNi ever releases a Dragonball D-Box that they will make it look almost identical as with the DBZ D-Boxes.

Well, I wish I could get a Dragon Box for $40.. The only way I can get one is to import one and as I don't have a credit card, all I can do is order it from Axelmusic so I can pay with PayPal.. Unfortunately Axelmusic's price + shipping costs comes down to $68.. But as far as I can tell it's the only option for me, or does anyone know a cheaper place to order them without a credit card?

Consistency in their Dragon Ball releases has been an issue with Funimation. I do think that a Funimation DB DBox probably would be given the same treatment as the DBZ release, but you can never be sure.

Yeah, they're all free. But technically, I did buy it for $0.00.

To expand on that, the DLC gives you customized versions of characters that you normally wouldn't be able to set up on your own.

Does it automatically unlock SSJ3 Broli and Vegeta as well? Also, does it cost money?

I have no idea on your first question. I had all of the characters unlocked well before the DLC was released. As for your second question, the DLC is free.

It depends on what add ons, you've downloaded and it's free.

Yes, but you can't customize the DLC characters. And it's free.

Characters on the game or DLC can't be customized except you meant customized the skills.
