Don't need to say that ALL my figures are original items. I will be uploading more closeups if you like it!

They look all really nice, as you mentioned, could you take a close up pic of Gogeta SSJ4 and Cell?

By the way, do you only have figures?

There is a very important reason I didn't get the hscf series and it is because of the "holding hands" effect. the series only has 5 poses(one main one) and their different forms were not very impressive. I cringed when I finally saw the Cell SCulture and it was the dreaded effect

yeah man your so right, I also hate the poses on the HSCF line, almost everyone has the same, in this sense, the Real Works is better, they have more diversity. They are still cool.
And yes, for the sCultures one that pose would have been AMAZING on Cell.

HOLY CRAP! I remember finding that clock in some little Asian tinker shop when I was like 12 or something. There was a Sailor Moon one too.

And as for the figures with snap-on clothing, those used to be freaking awesome.

Well I'm not with my stuff to take pictures, but I'll give a list, and take pictures once I find my collection satisfactory.

I have:

All 42 Viz tankobons
All 5 Blue bricks
All 7 Funimation Z Dragon Boxes
The first 3 Kanzenbans
DBKai parts 1-4
3 posters
A Field of View album with Dan Dan Kokoro Hikareteku on it (getting flimsy at this point)
A T-shirt featuring a picture of a flying log and the words "Tao Pai Pai Airlines"

What I'd like to have:
The 34 Kanzenbans (I may replace my tankobons with Kanzenbans and Viz Bigs)
Funimation Dragon Boxes other than Z (if released) (I would replace my blue bricks)
The Daizenshuu's
DBKai season sets
A good set of OSTs
The Journey to the West
A set of good quality crystal dragon balls
A mug I once saw that had the Kanji for "turtle" on it

If Funimation ever actually finish the Blu Ray sets I think I might rather have those than my DBoxes, but only if they actually release everything, not just Z. The Dragon Boxes just feel more collectable and precious though, so I think ideally, if Funi did everything I wanted them to and I had loads of money, I'd have a full set of blu-rays and the Japanese Dragon Boxes for pure collectibility.

takezor, the vegeta in your very first picture. What is the make of that figure?

Its an excellent figure, and i love your collection. I've been looking for an accurate Vegeta, but the best ones are always expensive.

Tell me about it, THANKS!

That is the wild style vegeta

I think the SCulture looks better but if you want that one it usually pops up for very cheap. Both figures do.

I finally own the Trunks and Bardock specials, which I consider canon (of course) and anime canon. Also my second Dragon Box 3, which replaced my old "new" DBox 3 that arrived with the inner plastic disc tray cracked a bit.

I wish I did have a photo, but I already sold it. :cry:

It really wasn't that bad though. The discs were all in perfect condition, and they more or less stayed in place if you handled the box carefully. I noticed a light dent at the top of the box, and since the cracked plastic was at the top, something must've happened during shipping that damaged it.

It was still very annoying that it arrived like that when I bought it new, and as cheap as the new Dragon Box 3's were with there recent re-stocking at Walmart.com, I couldn't resist picking up another new one and selling my used one.

If you want to pickup a new Dragon Box 3, buy it here. I got lucky when a member here posted this link the same day I planned on buying one for $56 on Amazon.

Hello Lettuce, thank you for the compliments :P My collection is growing non-stop. I just got Vegeta and Dr Gero from sCultures now.
Beji already named it. This Vegeta and the Goku SSJ that is next to him are Wild Style from Banpresto. Also if you should have to get one Vegeta, I would definitely go for the sCultures one.
My last purchases (including the Vegeta I told you).

I didn't know where to put this so I though I would ask on here instead of making a new topic. How do some people set up their books? I am a HUGE fan of cover art so DVDs and books having their covers hidden away well.. bothers me :lol: I wanted to ask some of the big collectors on here what they did with theirs or even people with their own ways. I was wondering if anyone has their Daizenshuus displayed so the Dragon was formed and if not I am going to attempt soon
Image
I also love when an image has a good figure to go with it(a few quick pics to keep on topic sorry about the quality)

My other question is how people set up their Japanese Dragon Boxes. I just don't have any ideas right now. I'll end up showing my final attempt later this month since I very casually move one thing at a time xD

Soppa Saiyjins from Dorgou Ballru Zetto is my favorite transformation everah, especially when Trounksoru did it in front of Seru and when Bejita did it when he faced Jingonigen-hachigo. But for real, I use the FUNi pronunciation. - Soppa Saia People
