My Broly Triple Feature and Wrath of the Dragon/Fusion Reborn
ImageImage
finally arrived today!! After a month of waiting, there was a delay at customs... I already watched today Broly - TLSS and Broly - SC, now I'm going to watch BioBroly and then Wrath of the Dragon. I've never seen the movie specials, only "The History of Trunks" & "Fusion Reborn". I'm so happy!! ;) :D

Was just about to say that he'd have to wait and pray that a Dragon Box movies release comes out, that's the only chance that those of us without the cooler steelbook have of getting it. :(
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 :)

Maybe I should check the local Best Buy and see if they have any copies. Maybe I could get a few and sell them for around $50 each. :lol:

But really though, why the hell did FUNimation discontinue that Cooler steelcase? Was it not selling well enough or what?

If you do get one of the dvd not blu rays and want to I'm up for $50 As long as a DBox movies isn't announced, because then I'd get it from ebay for a fiver :)

I rebought Raging Blast on 360. Luckily I forgot to delete my save data for it, so it's all good.

I mean, you're pretty open about looking at cartoon porn. Why would you do that? It's fiction. The proportions of these women are not possible to reach in reality.

There's always the Madman one. :wink: Except it's got a few problems like not being in a Steelbook and having both movies on one disc. :( The good thing is it's not hard to find and it's very cheap. :D

The major problem with the Madman Double Features is that the video quality on them is worse than their American counterparts. So if you're fussy about the video quality (which some people on this forum are), this will be an issue for you.

It's because of the NSTC to PAL conversion thing, isn't it?

I think another issue the Madman releases of the Double Features had (not entirely sure) was it was an interlaced encode rather than the progressive encode the US release and the Season Sets got.

NTSC to PAL conversion can cause ghosting. I noticed some on my Spanish sets so I'd imagine the same would hold true for Australia. It's a common casualty of conversion.
