You won't be charged since they ship from inside the UK, also if you were to order from amazon.com or something as long as you are under £30 for the longest shipping time you're ok, the £18 mark only really applies to expedited shipping or anything faster.
It's the smallest risk you'll get, there's always a risk, but you should be fine, especially with the current exchange rate, if the exchange rate changes more in our favour I might cancel close to september and re-order in USD so the price drops more

Next to get; Leged of Saiyan figures and Freeza's force
If anyone sees
Any of the Legend of Saiyan line going cheapish
Or any other Banpresto DBZ figure
If anyone has a cooler steelbook dvd that wants to sell it (prefer new but used is fine) when/if the dragon box movies comes out contact me

Thanks for the information!
I was thinking of using AxelMusic, but I think Dragon Box four is like £32.

I can save myself some money now.

Ha I was gonna do that as well, but since I got all the DFs bar coolers and 4/5 Blue bricks 2 green bricks and about 5 Orange bricks 3 dragon boxes in the past 2 months I thought I'd hold out to see if the £10 DragonBox guy lists no4 on play.com, but after seeing playusa's price, I kind of had my mind made up

I know this is off topic, but can anyone tell me how many Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z vizbigs there are? In people's collections, I only usually see Dragon Ball viz bigs 1-5, and Dragon Ball Z vizbigs 1-7. Is that all there are? Or are there more?

I think there will be a Dragonball Z Viz Big #8. Don't quote me on that, as I'm not 100% sure.
Next quest: Buy the Super: Broly and Super Hero Blurays, also Daima whenever that releases in the states. Also the Super Manga!

There are 5 Dragon Balll Vizbig Volumes and 9 Dragon Ball Z Vizbig Volumes.
Dragon Ball Z Vizbig Volume nº 9 is the only one which hasn`t been released yet. Its scheduled to be released on November. All the others are available (and I own them all).

While I wasn't the one to purchase it, I was the one who received it as a present. What am I talking about?
Dragon Box: The Movies. My girlfriend got it for me as an anniversary present.

Sounds like a keeper!
Also, I picked up Battle Stadium D.O.N. for PS2 at Book-off for $19! Time dig up my JP PS2 and try this out...

VIZBIG Dragonball Z, Volume 8.
I'm curious on one thing though, are the VIZBIG's translations exactly the same as VIZ' previous releases or did they make any tweaks here and there?

While at Otakon I bought a DBZ cel! I've been wanting to buy one for a while, I would have liked to get a cel with a matching background but eh, I'm just happy to have grabbed this. I'm totally framing this sometime this week. Maybe I'll do the two frame side by side thing so I can get the cel and drawing in the same frame.
So, I'm kinda embarrassed to even ask this cause I should know this but, where the Hell is this from. Movie 12? Movie 13?

I'd say movie 13 as in movie 12 Goku had a halo for the whole movie.

I just watched movie 13 and Goku is never on the ground when he's a Super Saiyan 3. So I'm guessing its from when he fights kid Buu.

You'd think I would recognize that cell, since I saw the Kid Buu episodes non-stop when they were the (only) Dragonball DVDs I had....
Not from Movie 13, Goku's not even on the ground. It *could* be from Movie 12, only if the Halo was put on later...?

Yeah, that's definitely from the pure Buu fight. It's actually near the end where Goku and Buu are knocking each other around underground.

Mine arrived too, around 20 mins ago! Took 5 days to ship from the UK. I might post some pics later, but only if anyone is interested.
