Dragonball Kanzenban (Perfect Edition) - COLOR MANGA BOX

Post by dragonbox2006 » Fri Jul 08, 2005 2:49 pm

The Japanese Re-release:
Recently, Shueisha (the original Japanese publisher of DB) began to put out a new-and-improved version of the manga, with intact color pages, new cover art by Akira Toriyama, and more chapters per volume. This re-release, known as the Kanzenban (Perfect Edition), will have 34 volumes rather than the original 42. Plus, you get a whole new ending to the series.

>Japan released only 500 to limited people.

To whom has all 34 + other same-sized books, I'm making a CUSTOM BOX that will hold slightly more books than the original box. I'm in phase 5/10 of the project. I hope to be done by EARLY AUGUST. Let me know if you want one.

= the box will retail for $100.00 USDor LESS..... + shipping($20 USD)

* The offical one retails in JAPAN for $800~~$3000 USD. Thats scary and stupid. These people got it for FREE, and they sell it TOO MUCH.

with PICTURES OF THE BOX.

Too bad they don't sell the box seperately. I have the new, PERFECT EDITION, mangas, but no box to go with it.

I'd love to have one that fit the VIZ manga, since their boxes are discontinued (besides the newest one) :D

Well, I just realized that I should actually purchase the, oh, 8 or so volumes I'm missing (not including the unreleased volumes) before I buy a box to hold them :lol:

I'll be checking back when you finish the first one and tell us how much it costed to make it. Then I'll probably decide to snag one!

I wouldn't mind snagging one, but I'd like to see what it looks like before I put together the funds to do so.

By the way though, how do you go about doing business with people online?

Isn't that illegal, or did you buy copyrights?

Selling bootleg Dragon Ball merchandise in a North American market? I'd say that's a definate 'yes'.

Oh yeah, definitely illegal. And a ripoff. Personally, if I want a quality box, I'll contact Paul Champagne with dimensions and source pics to have it put together nice for half your price.

Sorry man, better luck elsewhere.
