Why? Because I couldn't stand the fact that I'd been a fan for 11 years and I still hadn't seen the entire Anime.
DBZ Movie 9 is going back up on Trademe though.
Wow! Nice value! And you found the 'Piccolo Jr' part one disc set which I've heard is quite rare or was. I still haven't seen all of the anime yet either.
Nice find on the Dragon Box: The Movies, jayred!
It is in his character to be rude and a bit crass. He's a hick, with no formal education. That is Son Goku. That is who he is.
Superman in an orange Gi was the bastard son of FUNimation. Its not The real character, it is as false as Chatku.

I just ordered Dragon Box 7 for with Walmart's site-to-store shipping (which I've never done before, so I hope it works out). It was $31 total, which beats out Amazon's $50 asking price (which, maybe by coincidence seems to go to $50 when Walmart's out of stock, and drops down to $31 when they do have it) and even Rightstuf's current sale.
It's been fluctuating in and out of stock at Walmart, and last night they seemed to have gotten some in stock, and after this order it looks like I got the last of their current stock.

My Dragon Boxes 5 and 6 were lying on my bed when I came home from work... See you all in the winter.
While it would have been nice to have more. I'll happy with Boxes 5-7.

You can still get 3 fairly easily. Unless you don't want any gaps of somethin'.

I got the manga for those parts.
I've got practically the whole anime but for the majority of the Artifical Human/Cell I'll just use the VIZBigs I was given for Christmas.

Went into game today, saw they had Dragon Ball Origins and Attack of the Saiyans, pre-owned, which was great because I was unable to find them elsewhere! So happy to get those.
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on
my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

Bought RB2 from TheHut, I hope it comes with the international original music then again, I hate DBZ game music replacements, so I listen to the original via USB on my Xbox 360.
FUNimation 2015 Releases I want:

Back last year I bought one of the Orange Bricks at Target... and then I found out about the Dragon Boxes. But if they really are discontinued in English, then I guess there was nothing I could've done anyway.

My most recent purchase is the Saikyo Jump March Issue. It'll probably be a couple months before I get though. (SAL Shipping.)
Next on my list is the Jump Special. Hopefully I can get it in February. Maybe I'll order it for myself for my birthday.

Buying Dragon Box 3 soon. Debating whether I should save $6 and get the "Used- Like New" version, leaving another new copy for someone else (Because you think about that at this point!) or just go straight for one of the Amazon's last 3 new copies.
Given that my Dragon Boxes aren't in absolutely perfect condition (Despite that I actually keep the plastic wrap on, only tearing it to get to the discs. No tearing stickers for me!), due to moving them around or the delivery, I honestly wouldn't mind a very slightly scuffed box.

Got this about a week ago. It's gorgeous.
I like the quality of the release a lot and can't wait to watch the episodes!
It kinda sucks that the booklet for Volume 4 is missing, but I'm sure Rightstuf would be happy to send me a replacement if I write to them about it.
