Boom. I finally get to see BoG! :D
Is that a bootleg?
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

Haha Okay cool! I was looking at it and thinking something looked a little odd :P How much was it? in dollars :P

Edit - I actually have plans to buy the limited edition on Blu-ray here in a few months. I just hope people don't try to jack the price up to around 2 or 3 hundred dollars lol

I checked CD Japan for the limited blu ray, and it says it's not a "first release" anymore.

So they don't guarantee the extras are in it. It'd suck to pay 100 bucks to import a non-limited edition.
A YouTube channel with no AMVs on it? I know, it's hard to believe.

Ah, the old dust-covers and their much more appealing design... Were I not so obsessed with getting all my stuff all new and shiney n'stuff, (the Dragon Boxes I bought recently would be an obvious exception here because, y'know, getting a new copy of those would cost you an arm and a leg or two) I would probably have sought out a second-hand copy of volume 42 in order to get that older design... But seeing how the book itself would be exactly the same regardless that kinda seemed like an unnecessary amount of extra effort. Especially seeing how I only bought volume 42 to have both versions of the endings anyway.

Got these from a seller who kept them in a protective sleeve ever since he bought the Daizenshuu!

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

I bought the Viz 3-in-1 Kanzenban as a Christmas present for my friend and the Viz 'Dragon Ball Z' volumes 19-21 as a Christmas present for my brother. Sorry there's no pictures, the presents are already wrapped.

*Brand New* (Sealed) Dragon Ball Raging Blast 2 Original Soundtrack Overseas version LACA-15111!

- Apparently, the CD was a sample version given out to composers and game developers in 2011, and was not formally/officially released.

That was a eBay a while ago for a fair bit of money. :shock:

How much did that set you back? I think it's potentially one of the rarest pieces of Dragon Ball merchandise out there.

Did you really buy that crazy-expensive one on eBay? :shock:

I tip my hat to you, AnimeMaakuo. That's true dedication. I didn't even want this CD and I'm still jealous.

Let me just say that it was quite a bit of money. :)

This prompted me to check mine. The first volume has the entire sheet still within the book, but the second volume has the entire page torn out. Kinda annoyed that I have one and not the other, but at least it wasn't something important...like the Shenlong Times, which none of my books had. :cry:

Dragon Ball Z Super Gokuden: Kakuseihen PRCD GES-10588! This was some sort of promo release for COCC-13062 containing 14 of the 20 tracks. On the back of it you'll see "Not for sale".

- You can read more information about it here: http://vgmdb.net/album/31124

AnimeMaakuo, are you Peking Duck in disguise? :lol: You must be quite rich. Where do you find all of this stuff? Yahoo Auctions?

Needless to say, I think the whole website feels very jealous whenever you show off a new purchase.
