Hooooly crap wasn't expecting the last volume to be out of print already.... amazon has some for thirty bucks, buying now - last thing I want is to have 6/7ths of the dboxes and be unable to get the last one....

I was freaking out because there was no way I could save up for these in time, but I just had a stroke of luck. 2 years ago my brother bet with me 100 that I couldn't beat MGS4 in under a month (little did he know that the challenge of MGS4 was sitting back with a bowl of popcorn). Anyway he finally paid up today, so I should be able to get the last 3 in time.

Awesome way to get a bitta money! Fair play to him paying up. :)

I still need Dragon Box 6 and 7. I ordered 6 off Planet Axel, but I gotta wait for it to be back in stock which could take a while. To be honest I'm more worried about Dragon Box 7, cause everywhere I look it's out of stock, or nearly out of stock. I hope I can scrape up the money in time to get it.

Got my Dragon Box 2 back ordered from Best Buy! It should get here in 2-3 weeks!

Now in a few weeks when I get paid again, I'll order the rest of them all at once from Amazon!

Thus, my life will be complete :lol:

Cheers mate! Hopefully it stays where it is I need to get money. I think I'm getting money on Tuesday, so fingers crossed! Thanks for the link Steve, really appreciated. :)

I ordered a DBox 7. With this, my Z Collection will be complete soon.

... and I won't know what to do about those Orange Brick Sets I got on the cheap. The Blu-Rays render these sets obsolete IMHO.

Quick question:

I decided to start getting the Dragon Boxes (Better late than never) and most likely I will be getting Dbox 1 for Christmas. But I recently learned my local best buy has Dbox 2 for $49.99 Canadian in stock. This is close to the price or even cheaper in some cases than online stores that ship up to Canadaland.

Should I bite and buy Dragon Box two and wait seeing as it seems quite rare now or should I hope for the best and wait till I get Dragon Box one?

Also if anyone knows a place where I can get Dragon boxes for under $45-48 in Canada, please tell me.

Thanks in advanced.

While I can't speak of living in Canada I would recommend you get dbox 2 since that one can't be found new on any online stores. Food for thought. :D

Well it does say "Online Quantity 1" so I assume it is very limited as of now. Will buy it later this week for sure and keep it sealed till December 25th (Probably will wrap it up in gift wrap for the hell of it lol).

Can't believe how limited it is already :shock:

Sheessh. If I knew how quickly and crazy the prices were gonna go up, I would have bought two of every set, and bid my time until each one was worth that dbox 2 on ebay, and then sell them and make a ridiculous amount of money. Unfortunatly, I'm not much of a plan aheader. . .but at least I own them all, the 6th and 7th are actually still in their shrink wrap. Kinda lose interest in Z when we hit the teen Gohan era. . .it leads to some very disturbing things.

Get it! Get it! Get it!

Whenever I have seen Box 2 at Best Buy it has been in the $65 range. The Marketplace sellers on Amazon.ca have it for $61.30 and $182.99 plus shipping so it's as good a price as any.
