It wasn't me who originally figured this out. It was on the previous boxes too and I just wanted to see if they were still doing these. I made a topic about it so we can gather them all in one place. Maybe I'll do the the other discs tommorow, if no one does it by then...

Please someone do it by then.

Why does Right Stuf still listed the Dragon Box Z 4 with textless songs?

They're probably unaware of it, considering they haven't included the "48-page collector's booket" Dragon Book on there when it does contain one.

You just wanna ruin my memories of that Arc dubbed? :P
I dunno, I'm curious how it holds up against my nostalgia, mainly because the Artificial Human/Cell Arcs are my favorite in Z.
Ah well, I'll get to hear this Wakamoto guy. :lol:
You've never heard Wakamoto before? SHAME.

So, did they fourth box include a movie or anything extra?
I wanted a mission, and for my sins, they gave me one.

You should read the thread, but there are no extras...

Yeeeah, the spacing of the image is off, plus there's the yellow parts of the boxes.

One way to make the picture look better is to take them out of the boxes then take away the Dragonbooks.

Overall this has been the most fun Dragon Box so far for me. I can remember watching a lot of these episodes with my friends back when it was on TV and it was about this time that I started watching the Japanese version. Turned the dub on for a minute or so just for the nostalgia trip and revisionist history is kinda funny considering I couldn't take the dub for more than a scene or so this time around. Also props to FUNi for putting the glue on that back cover flier on this box. Still haven't replaced my Box 3 with the giant tear on the back but I'll get around to it during the wait between Box 4 and 5.

Might want to hurry, Box 2 is going out of print.

Well, it hasn't been officially confirmed but, all signs, as of now, seem that way.

For some reason, every media player I use on my computer freezes about halfway through episode 137. Has anyone else had this problem?

Idk wtf is wrong. It locks up at 1:30:32 on Disc 20. I will try playing another disc, I guess.
It's been done countless times before, but...

I've had the same exact problem in that spot. It did it on both a Magnavox Blu-ray player and my PS3. So you're noth the only one. Anybody else experience this?

Mine was fine, too. I stopped at the exact spot Corporate_Nothing spotted the problem, and nothing happened.

Mind you, this was on a DVD player. I don't even own a PS3 or a Blu-Ray player.
Next quest: Buy the Super: Broly and Super Hero Blurays, also Daima whenever that releases in the states. Also the Super Manga!
