To this day I still use ImageShack free of charge and it works wonderfully, I'd also suggest staying away from TinyPic.

PhotoBucket is pretty good too with a limit of 5GB storage for free accounts, so that should last for a long time unless the image files are considerably big.

Anw, was looking to buy something but nothing pops up of my interest oh well I'll check Amazon/eBay tomorrow.

For those that don't know, DBE for PSP is just Shin Budokai reskinned basically. I fail to see how this game received such a low score on Metacritic but perhaps they focused more on the film than the game itself.

All that I'm missing is Shin Budokai 2 and I've got all DB games for PSP.

It is - but that's more representative of the quality of the movie than the game, which by most estimations, is still pretty bad.

Just got this today. I'm actually really impressed, it looks great. Will definitely be picking up the rest and even though I know this arc inside out I look forward to reading it again!

I totally owned that for an hour once. I bought it from blockbusters, watched it for 5 minutes then returned it and got The Matrix and Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey instead.

I plan on buying the iBook version for my iPhone/iPad. Did the book censor anything, because I don't want to buy any censored Dragonball manga!

Yeah, they censored Mister Popo's lips so he looks rather awkward and more like the animal that Dr. Briefs has.

Okay, now I know I'm being annoying, but did they cut out the blood...anything else?

Mister Popo's lips are the only part of the artwork that has been edited in the "Full Color" release. The Viz translation is the same as previous volumes, but the artwork (including the Japanese sound effects) is near completely intact.

Dragon Ball: CotBR - Used (Very Good Condition)
Dragon Ball: Movie Box - New

Considering this is the only uncut release of the first DB film and it's in fullscreen (whereas the Dragon Box is cropped) I'll take this despite the obvious flaws (detail loss) it has, although tweaking the TV could allow to see them even if it isn't ideal.

The old DVDs on the Movie Box can be seen clearly so it's not an issue for the rest (2-4).

So here's the complete pic of what my buddy brought in for me:

Sorry it took so log to post it. Like I said earlier he's not big into DBZ at all, so he grabbed me the Sparking! guide book cuz he said he figured Sparking! was another thing like the Exciting Guides, he's a good friend.

I wish I'd thought about the KFC water bottles in time... but did not want to be a burden. I'm really excited that my guide book collection is complete :D :mrgreen:

How I enjoy the anime:
