Personally, I wouldn't.
I have a Dragon Ball collection of sorts which can be seen here.

Have them autograph Kia or the blu-rays or something. Not the Dragon Boxes.

Why not? They'll autograph *pretty much* anything. Chris Sabat has said that he's been asked to sign a baby's butt before and he (very awkwardly) complied.
A "rather haggard" translation of a line from Future Gohan in DBZ, provided to FUNimation by Toei:
"To think of fighting that is this fun...so, it was pleasant fight, as many as, therefore is a feeling which is good the fight where."

I had Eric Johnson (Was that his name? I can't remember!) on a DBZ Cardass card featuring Trunks and it was a-okay! That card he signed was pretty rare and is practically impossible to find nowadays. I had about 2 legit copies of this card too! One was from Bandai (HK) and the other imported directly from Japan.

I... really don't know; it would shatter the collector's value to some. Maybe not to you, which is the important thing.

I know I'd be freaking out too if I got a chance for them to sign something, since they never seem to turn it down.

Chris Sabat is a weird fellow. I remember meeting him in Toronto a few years ago at the Fan Expo (In fact, it was the same event where I met the American dub voice of Trunks) and for some oddball reason, he kept chuckling at me like Beavis & Butthead. By the way, Chris Sabat does a really good Beavis voice.

Yes! Definitely get their autographs. Especially if you grew up listening to the NA Dub of the show. But nah Legendary, don't have them sign your Dragonboxes. Get the new Blu-ray and have them sign that.

I had Kyle Hebert autograph Dragonbox 5, so I say do it. Then again, I have the Japanese boxes as well which I consider to be a bit more precious than the US releases. I'd happily let other VAs sign my US Dragonboxes. It's really up to how much you value them & whether YOU think an autograph will increase or decrease it's value.

You could do like I did and just use DBZ posters. I have two posters covered with cast autographs.

Have Sean Schemmel sign a volume of Kai, since it's where he actually doesn't suck.

I guess the same applies to most of the rest of the cast. Why have them sign something they screwed up on when there's something they did well?

I want to think of something really cool to have signed. I was thinking of maybe having Chris sign the base of my HQDX Majin Vegeta figure

That'd be pretty cool. Isn't the base for that figure black? You should find a marker that will show up nicely on it and bring it with you for him to use incase they only have black markers.

Well, in that case, I guess Eric Vale (He voices Trunks, right?) should sign a Dragon Box. I think he did better there then he did in Kai. Though, too bad I didn't get a chance to see Mayumi Tanaka while I was at Sakura-Con... It would've been cool to get her to sign a Dragon Box.

Speaking of an Eric Vale autograph, can anyone authenticate this for me? I have no idea what his autograph looks like, but I bought the DBZ TV-Special #2 The History of Trunks used from a seller on Amazon for literally just a few dollars, and it arrived like this:

I assumed it was Eric's autograph, given the arrow pointing right at Trunks... Does it match other signatures any of you have seen of his?

have them autograph the peel off paper on the back of the dragon boxes. that's what I would do.
- Been a Dragon Ball fan ever since 1995 (at the time, I was 7 years old).
- I prefer Saffron Henderson's Kid Gohan and Kid Goku over Stephanie Nadolny's.
- I still hope for a redub of Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z with FUNimation's current cast.
- I prefer to watch Dragon Ball Z with the Faulconer Score, however I do not mind the original Japanese score.

Hey, that way you can tear it off and throw it away!
