Not a purchase, but a heads up. I saw at my Best Buy that they had the GT Complete Series box set for $25. So, if you want to pick that up, well, it's pretty cheap.

I mean, you're pretty open about looking at cartoon porn. Why would you do that? It's fiction. The proportions of these women are not possible to reach in reality.

Also got a few bags of these to go with it.

$15? Just a heads up, that jar is a lot smaller than it looks. Not even two inches.

You guys remember those Scouters that were apparently at Comic-con? You know, the ones that came with the trading cards that you look at and can read the power levels on them or something like that.

These babies.

Apparently Hastings has them in stock, cuz I saw two of them at the one I was at yesterday, for about $20 each. And you have no idea how hard it was not to buy it (damn you adult responsibilities!). Will probably cave when I go next time if it's there.

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

That's a nice Blu-ray box you have there but why does Goku have wrinkles and pink hair? Shouldn't he have like reddish hair?

His hair is magenta without the aura, and red when he turns the flames on.

They're not actually wrinkles. They're just the under eye scrunch lines you see in the show.

Example:

All the characters have them.

Haha!!
I'm not that bothered with Pink being my favourite colour and all. And it certainly beats that cape design. But that would certainly have been interesting to look at.

What made you buy the VizBigs? And do you prefer them overall to the 3-in-1's?

I might be in japan before they finish dragon ball in the 3ins and I want to finish the original dragonball before I go(^^)

I like them both about the same. 3in1s are lighter and more portable. There paper is not as nice and no color pages. I've gotten past viz censorship issue as well. Better cover art is a plus I suppose.

Vizbigs are higher quality and have color pages,not all, that are fun. However, they are not as portable and are qiute heavy, which make holding them while reading a task.

If you want a release that'll last longer, I'd say vizbig wins. If you want somthing you can travel with, or take up a little less room on the shelf 3in1s are the way to go :)

Thanks guys! I'm really happy to have it in my collection. :D Question though. The DVD won't play(Because it's Japan region locked) But is there a player I can download besides VLC or change the region code settings in Windows Movie Player Because I read if I change the region code on wmp it could mess it up.

Ahhh...I don't know nothing about that stuff so I'll just leave it be. I already have a copy of the Jump Special anyways with subs on DVD so... :P I wished I could learn how to put subtitles on this Blu-ray but again..Don't know nothing about it. lol I'd rather pay someone to do it haha
