I recently picked up a DragonBall x One Piece Goku figure. It's the one where Goku is dressed up in Luffy's outfit. I would've bought Luffy, but the sculpt wasn't really appealing.

I should really start buying the DragonBoxes...

Didn't see the thread so I forgot to post this.

Today I picked up DragonBall volume 5 and Bo Bo Bo volume 2 at Books A Million \. Was hoping to see Daizenshu or recent One Piece too but couldn't see it, oh well. :lol:

Dragon Ball The Movie #13 R2 Single release! I bought it from Play-Asia.com for a mere $35USD, shipping and everything! It took about two weeks to get to me.

I never noticed it but it says "Free Delivery Within Indonesia" :D and because US Dollar are really low at the time, it's even cheaper! :D

What are the Mexican sets like?
Did I say "Mexican"? Nope, I said Spanish. There's plenty of material on the forums and reviews of the sets.

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.
Just buy the Cooler Double Feature, on Amazon used.

Dragon Box volume 1! :mrgreen:
Now six more to go...
A Dragon Ball/Urusei Yatsura crossover would be awesome.
Having Toshio Furukawa balance between Piccolo and Ataru would be hilarious.
