Oh, you can switch the 2 around? I only took a brief look at the pictures, I thought they were supposed to go at the ends. :lol:
A long time ago (like, over a year probably), I was looking on eBay a lot for DBZ stuff. Not that I planned on buying anything, just killing some time. :P
I saw a lot of those puzzle sets for sale, and also these people that always try to sell this one set of like 12 action figures.

A friend of mine, who is stubbornly dub-crazy and only watches Z, has an alarm clock that I'm sure was made in Japan, because it plays a few notes from "Makafushigi Adventure" and then says "Good morning!" in English, and then continues with a few more notes and another "Good morning!" several more times. It's really annoying, but since she had this clock before FUNimation's DragonBall dub (the one with the Makafushigi theme) came out, she had no idea what the tune was from. *Hums to himself* Tsu-ka-mo-u ze, "Good morning!" DO-RA-GO-N-BOO-RU...
Also, after I got Daizenshuu 7, I noticed something *really* weird in the toys section. Apparently, there had been what appears to be a Kame Sennin "pafu-pafu" pen that apparently does the "pafu-pafu" clapping motion when you press a button. If that's not obscure, I dunno what is! I had no idea there were DragonBall porn toys :lol: Talk about warping the children :?

Get a load: it says "Bandai; When you squeeze the handy levers, Kame Sennin brings both hands together and does a 'pafu-pafu'. It has a line written on it that says 'Young girls are great, pah-pah!'"
BGM forever! If only more people paid attention to it... well, I intend to change that.

Well, I own some really old DragonBall Z pj's that are too small for me to fit into now.

I own a couple DBZ chibis: kid Goku, Broly, Vegeta, SS4 Goku and Gohan. I also collect magazines with DBZ covers. I found an old Janemba action figure in the garbage 5 years ago. I own a lot more but i'm not sure if you would call it obscure.
I'm on a PSP. And I'm trying to follow the rules!

:shock: That puts the "fan" back into "fanatic," right there. :lol:

Just teasing. :wink:
