It kinda feels like the end of the series all over again. Maybe because this is the epitome of releases. We'll never have to buy another Z series set ever again, this is it.

Or maybe I'm overemotional and should go to bed.
I wish I was as lucky as you. Even after getting the last Dragon Box, I still have to finish off the Kai sets and possibly replacements for Parts 1-4 with Yamamoto's score. So cursed indeed. :P

Ah, Kai had slipped my mind. On the bright side you'll be done with the first Z series, that's one less thing to worry about! :lol:

September 13th, huh? That’s two days after my birthday. I suppose now is as good a time as ever to start buying these sets. Maybe I’ll buy it as a late present to myself. Or bug someone to get it for me ...

That's two days BEFORE my birthday! :lol: How likely is that?! :)

So far I have only volume 1 out of all releases. I will follow with the releases from now on and will buy the 6th and 7th sets (and the movies box, probably) just as they come out. I don't know if I will buy them all, through, because they're just so expensive here in Brazil (158 bucks, for you to have an idea). And importing doesn't help because the only secure method of shipping ends up making the purchase far more costlier than buying here. And of course, I can only buy it online. :(

. . .

I have a question, through: Why the boxes are different in those pics than what they actually look like? I mean, the Shenlong picture in the back of the box extends itself to the spine art and is part of it. Why did they change this design, and why did they not adapt the next releases to the current format? Because there was at least one physical copy of DBox 1 that looked like that (the one that was shown at AnimeExpo 2009 or whatever). It also clearly had other differences such as a blue-ish gloss finish, more like the original Japanese release. I really think that the earlier design was more similar to the JP Boxes than the latter one, and that was done intentionally. But for whatever reason they changed the design. Does the new one looks prettier or makes more sense or what? Regardless, I think I prefer the first one. :) If someone does know anything about this however, or want to toss anything there concerning that matter, I am all ears. :)

Why is that cover awesome? That looks nothing like Goku. I think it's ok.

No big deal. Just a 1-month delay. At least it's not a 7-month wait like it was between boxes 4-5.

I'm still on Box 3 so I'm okay with the delay. I'd like to at least be up to Box 5 by the time 7 comes out.

The boxes already take about a month to arrive (to New Zealand) so this doesn't bother me much. Plus I've still got to get Volume Six.

I kind of expected a delay. I mean, Dragon Boxes 6 and 7's release dates seemed a little too close together, barely a month apart. So a delay, in my opinion, was to be expected.
So mondo lame.
