This is ridiculous. If the Dragon Boxes are selling better, why would Funimation discontinue them?

They're limited releases, similar to the Japanese boxes. Chances are the limited release part was in the contract Funi signed with Toei.

If that's the case, then fine. If they're just choosing to make them a limited release, then it's stupid.

Yeah I think I'm going to order 1,3, and 4 tomorrow afternoon, unless they get Vol. 2 restocked tomorrow.... Then I think I should Order Vol. 2 next that seems to be the rarest one of them all...

Boxes 4 and 5; done. :3

How can I say no to a 60% off sale?
It's like I got a whole box for free and then some.

Box 6 can wait til I get further through my DBox watching though; I don't want to buy everything at once. ^^;


EDIT: Also it looks like Box 6 doesn't come out for another week anyway. I have to wait regardless. XD
On hiatus.

So, since I was curious as to why Dbox 2 isn't available on Amazon, I searched the internet a bit and found some anime store claiming that DragonBox vol. 1-4 to be discontinued.

In a bit of an impulse buy, I purchased both Vol. 4 and 5. I have no regrets....yet.

For those of who is wondering when the sale ends it ends 11:59PM Saturday, July, 16... Since Amazon hasn't restocked Dragon Box Vol. 2, I think I'm going to order it from Walmart.Com. I have check RightStuf and thus far there are no signs of Dragon Box 2 going out of print yet, but who knows rather be safe than sorry which is why I'm getting the earlier boxes tomorrow...

Ordered 4, 5, and 6. Should be shipping out next week! Also pre-ordered 7. Never thought I'd ever own every episode of DBZ without spending an f'n fortune. Thanks Funi/Amazon!

Whelp, I was gonna wait another month to get box 4, as I wanted a few other things., but between the Amazon deal, some of the Dragon Boxes being on the top of Amazon's best sellers chart, that site reporting it as discontinued, and the fact that I happened to have about $25 on hand, I decided to go ahead and get the 4th Dragon Box.

Even if it's just an error or something, I don't want to take the chance and forever have a hole in my Z collection. The other stuff I wanted can more likely wait.

Ordered Dragon Box Z Volumes 1,3,4, and 5... Getting Volume 2 as soon as I can next month.... Still 4 Dragon Boxes for under $100 with free shipping isn't bad at all.... They should be arriving Monday according to Amazon.
