Gonna get those two at some point, but I’ve ordered this bad girl for the moment.
Oh this has definitely been stored in my figure bookmarks
, I scoped for DB stuff and was disappointed, lol... Nice catch on the Queen's Blade. I personally like that anime as it's as close to hentai as you can get without being hentai fully, lol. If they had a Menace or Cattleya Nendo I'd be on that like hot butter on toast.

Only thing she has released is an old little 1" thing, I think. That, and I found a giant expensive statue of her and Bojack (and Bido and Gokua on another statue).
those statues are incredible tho! I just bought an AMAZING SS Trunks statue, I can't wait to get it!

Apart form the blood stains which look like access to me personally, that statue is magnificent. I really like the Gohan, and Vegetto ones as well. This Trunks looks ridiculously nice, I really wish Banpresto or Bandai would get on that and make legit statues of this quality and size.
Oh god, I agree.
!!!!!!!!!!! ZOMFG, you sly dog you!!! Must get!

$50 for sheet music.
Well.. I guess I've seen things at crazier prices.
I have a Dragon Ball collection of sorts which can be seen here.

Fearing that Madman's upcoming release of 'Part 4' of 'DBZKai' would contain Shunsuke Kikuchi, I ordered the DVD off Amazon UK. I can't wait for it to arrive!
Oh, and I hope to win myself this off Trademe:
Yeah, I know they're the 'Orange Bricks', but the current price is dirt cheap and I only own a small portion of 'Z; and the first half of Kai.

Kai part four on Blu-Ray arrived on Friday, and Kanzenban 16-20 arrived today (hurrah for being over halfway!).
I need to learn me some moonspeak, as the pictures are so damn gorgeous in the Kanzenban, I own all of the Vizbig and they don't even come close.

I don't get it. That set that you got of the Season Sets... how does that work? Each one had six discs but this looks like a collection of regular DVD cases... so how did six discs fit into each case? Oh yeah, and their all-encompassing Dragon Book (
)

Pretty easily actually... we get most out six disc sets in regular DVD cases. If I had a camera, I'd show you.
And even though I'd never buy it myself, the box for that set if pretty freaking nifty!
Also, my Vegeta and Trunks LoS arrived.
Yo! Cal's the name. Nice to meet you!

Soppa Saiyjins from Dorgou Ballru Zetto is my favorite transformation everah, especially when Trounksoru did it in front of Seru and when Bejita did it when he faced Jingonigen-hachigo. But for real, I use the FUNi pronunciation. - Soppa Saia People

Just got the 5th season of Dragon Ball. All I need now are the four movies, but I think I will get the 4th Dragon Box next so can draw more design sketches.
Bald that way

How hard would it be to convert the American Orange Bricks to something that looks that nice on a shelf?

Look what I goooot~
It was almost free due to me having a bunch of leftover store credit at MovieStop
(an unlisted price drop from $33 down to $22 didn't hurt, either!). My local Walmart has the sets 3&4 two-pack in stock, but it's brand-new and not on the shelves yet, so no dice on that one. I'll have to make another run up to get it tomorrow or something.

This is art!! Wow. If I was a figure collector I'd probably jump on my bed with my pajamas.
- On the side note, I'm curious as to how much this figure cost?
$139.99+$58.50 for shipping. His statues are very expensive but C"MON! These are incredible pieces!!!!
They may not be official but they are too beautiful to pass up. I have bought from him a few times and he has always came through for me. The expensive shipping is well worth it. The statues are borderline, over protected, and have always shown up in one piece. I kid you not, you could probably drop one of his packages from a 5 story building and the contents would still be perfect.

Exactly. I found one person who makes custome anime artboxes, but he only seems to have DBZ ones for the 2 sagas,
not the orange brick collection.

Are you talking about the Paul Champagne boxes? I've never seen those boxes before but from what I've read they are very good.
As for housing the complete brick set, you're pretty much on your own. I wanted to create my own before but when the Dragon Boxes were announced I scrapped the idea. I plan on making one for my One Piece sets, but it's going to pretty much just be a large pirate chest with the logo spray-painted on top.

Just got my second Ichiban Kuji Prince Vegeta, and a random Ichiban Kuji Android 18 addon that happened to be a specially coloured version, that was nice.
