Oh and Wild Style DX figures, both of them together are £12 from Auc-toysanta on Rakuten.
How much is the tax level in the UK?

I pre-ordered Dragonball Z Kai Part 5 Blu-ray myself, its only $18.99 on amazon.
£18, if you use a fast shipping method you'll get done, if you use something from Japan like SAL, you can get away with much higher prices, good thing about amazon is they mark the package with the value but not the shipping cost so if it's under $40 you shouldn't get taxed, I can't wait, still need box 5 though I'm waiting for it to be under $35, even though it's got my favourite part of the series (Gohan Vs Cell) :)
Thanks for the info man :D preordering now.

I've been lazy and have not been taking pictures as I've been getting these figures in. But the newest addtions to the shelf would be:

2 Wild Style figures
SSJ4 Gogeta
Legend of Saiyan mini figures
Bunny Bulma

I also got in a few DVD's from Rightstuf that I was missing from my collection. I stopped collecting the UU DVD's while they were coming out for no real reason. Then 4 DVD releases later, they were cancelled. I never got a chance to pick up the remaing DVD's until now. And of course Dragonbox Z 5:

I made a quick video of me filling in the gap where I had planned to put the Ultimate Uncut DVD's. I finally got them all!

Filling In The Gap

I finally found a use for the Season Sets. They look pretty good as dividers for each series. I don't know if you can make it out in the picture, but I have Season 1 of DB and DBZ. I'm kind of tempted to buy Season Set 1 of DBGT just to make it look nice.

I got the Wild Style figures yesterday in the mail. And along with that, on an un-dragnball related note, I got in my new Xbox 360! Here's my unboxing video :D :

Beautiful setup Drab, it looks really nice! Nice catch on the figures, and love the display! Nice catch on the DVD's too :P.

Thanks Raithos! I feel a little more complete inside having most of the Funimation releases. I could have all of them but I really don't want to buy the Season Sets.

I finally got around to ordering the Digital Grade SSj3 Vegeta. Now all I need to do is find the HSCF SSj3 Vegeta...

Beautiful! You should get a few of those while he's still cheap and abundant as that's probably going to become a gem down the road as one of the first figures of him in that form... I love the digital grade line too, and he is one of... if not my best gashapon, simply perfect.

I just got my second SSJ3 HSCF Vegeta from a random restock on Angolz 17.00 for him and Broly! Scour the net though I'm sure you might find one for a decent price. I see them on the bay for like 39.99 and up, which is sort of a rip, but much better than the one I see going for 300.00

Don't take this personally, but I hate you right now. :wink: I would gladly pay $17 plus shipping for that HSCF Vegeta alone.

I've got an SSJ3 Vegeta but its a fake i think here's a picture of it:

It came with a SS Trunks, SS3 Goku (Also in the picture above), and SS3 Broli/Brolly/Broly.
Goku: Their lives mean absolutely nothing to you, You're not the least bit sorry, Even now all you can think about is how to destroy me.

Gotta love Goku's pep talks

Yeah, sorry to say it but those are bootlegs. :? The HSCF figures don't have bases. The SSj3 Vegeta has a tiny strip connecting the two feet. Also the colors on those is off.

I picked up the Garlic Jr. Saga for $5 brand new, GT A Hero's Legacy for $1, and Viz Comics, volumes 7 and 8. I honestly don't know what they are.

You don't even understand, I saw it in my RSS feed and I was panicking, I thought they were sold out and then I went to buy it and realized I had no money, so luckily I chose the "e-check" option and basically bought them out on reserve, and I was lucky to get the very last set. I wanted to get two, since 34$ is nothing to pay for 2 versions of both HSCF SSJ3 Vegeta and Broly. But there was only one set left. Lol.

I just ordered the GT Lost Episodes DVD boxset off of Amazon. I decided to get the singles instead of the green bricks since it has alternate angles and next episode previews. I can't wait, I've never seen GT before.

Oh man I'm so happy to have them! I'm pretty meh about LoS now, I mean after the reveal of the Tenkaichi figures I literally can't see anything else I really am stoked out of my mind for except the Clear Medicos Goku!
Excellent catch Kayo, btw you should join Myfigurecollection, I joined there too and it's pretty sweet nice interactive stuff really let's you get into your figures. With your high quality shots you'd be a perfect fit there.
