I own all 14 Vizbigs, the issue of Viz's Jump with Cross Epoch, the Episode of Bardock super kanzenban, Spanish edition of Mankan Zenseki(contains Dragon Boy), the digital issues of Viz's Shonen Jump with Jaco, and Plan to Eradicate the Super Saiyans. I've been trying to get my hands on the Spanish release of Neko Majin but no luck.

I still need to collect the movies and specials. I was waiting for the FUNi Dragon Box release but I'm not sure that we'll ever get that.

I'm not much of a physical collector of the series itself but so far I have the Volume 3 Funimation Dragon Box, Rock the Dragon collectors set, the Pioneer 3 pack DVD set of the first 3 movies and a bunch of the Funimation movie singles including both Cooler movies, Broly the Legendary Super Saiyan, Super Android 13, Wrath of the Dragon and Fusion Reborn.

My digital collection is far more valuable to me tbh simply because it's VHS recordings of the TV broadcast I grew up with which never got a DVD release.

I used to own one of the big red manga volumes that started from the Android arc till Cell Absorbed 17 but unfortunately I made the mistake of borrowing it to a careless person who lost it. i seem to attract a lot of those types of people... :problem:

I don't mean to break any rules on the forum regarding piracy, but could you please capture/digitize them and release them somewhere, seeing as they were never released? I think I, along with many other Westwood dub fans would greatly appreciate it!

Anime:
Dragon Boxes (the original 5 boxes)
Dragon Box Singles (a few Z singles thanks to Tanooki)
JSAT Special
FUNimation's Dragon Box Z Vol. 1
Dragon Ball Kai Blu-ray Box Sets
Dragon Ball: Episode of Bardock
Dragon Ball: Plan to Eradicate the Super Saiyans
Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods "Special Limited Edition Box"

Manga:
Weekly Shōnen Jump (a few issues here and there)
Tankōbon (42 volumes; original release)
Film Animation Comics (21 original volumes; including all 10 remixed volumes)
Kanzenban (34 volumes)
Full Color (Saiyan arc)

I'm know there's more, but I can't remember everything off the top of my head. As far as guidebooks, if you can name it, I probably have it. Oh, I also have some of Viz's releases. I at least have all of Z, but only a few of DB. As far as FUNimation goes, I honestly couldn't tell you exactly what I have. I own some Z and GT singles, although very sparingly and they're all in a box somewhere in my basement, but other than that I have the first Z Dragon Box. I used to own a bunch of the VHS tapes, but I got rid of them about a decade ago.

Anyway, I really need to post my updated collection in the appropriate thread. Someday, I suppose.

Manga:

Viz Dragon Ball Vol. 1 - 9
VizBig Dragon Ball Vol. 1 - 5
VizBig Dragon Ball Z Vol. 1 & 2 (I intend to complete this as I'm currently reading through the manga for the first time.)
Viz Dragon Ball Full Color Vol. 1 & 2

Anime:

Dragon Ball Blue Brick Season 1
Dragon Ball Season singles
Dragon Ball Movie 4-pack
U.S. Dragon Boxes
Trunks & Bardock Steel Book
Movies 1 - 13 Blu-ray
Battle of Gods Japanese Blu-ray
Dragon Ball Z Kai (Or what's out of it here in the States)
The Blu-ray season sets
Dragon Ball GT Green Bricks Seasons 1 & 2.

At one point in life I owned a lot of what Dragon Ball had released on VHS, then the Saiyan, Namek, Ginyu, Frieza, and Trunks VHS boxsets, then the rest of the VHS singles. (All uncut where applicable) Then the DVDs came out and I did the same with those except the Great Saiyaman and Kid Buu sagas at least. I also had all the Orange Bricks at one point and the GT singles and all the movies. I'm a Dragon Ball sadist. And broke. :P

Edit: Actually, it looked quite similar to Super Sonic's collection! Minus the manga.

Dragon Ball: Madman Saga of Goku, Funi 2 disc sets for the rest+ the 2005 3 movie pack

Dragon ball Z: Ocean dub singles for Saiyan and Namek sagas, Funi singles for Frieza-Kid Buu sagas + Ocean dub and First strike box sets of the first 3 movies, Funi singles for the other 10 movies, Funi single Bardock and Trunks specials.

Dragon Ball GT: Funi Singles including the "Lost Episodes" + Funi single Hero's Legacy

I have a few doubles laying around and some vhs copies from my childhood.
Grew up on it with the singles so that just the way I like to watch it have no intention of picking up any other release though I did want the Funi singles or the First two sagas but since those got cancelled I might eventually pick up the first two orange bricks but highly unlikely. Had hopes for the blu rays but they appear to have their issues.

I don't own a lot of it to be honest, I'm after the games at the moment.

So far I own

The Saiyan Saga on VHS, the pioneer one I think.

Some odd VHS tapes of the Buu saga.

Japanese DragonBall Dragon Box, but this is being given to some one who will probably appreciate it more.

Movie 1-5 on VHS

All the GT singles.

Volume 1-26 of DragonBall Z
Volume 1-6 of DragonBall

I used to have 4 and 5 of the Dragon Boxes but I traded them for megaman for Famicom.

For the anime I have the bricks, though I'd like to ditch my orange bricks for the dragon boxes. I also have the first two volumes of kai.

As for the Manga, I'm continuing the eternal wait for Viz to put out a better translation.

Manga wise, I own the majority of DB and DBZ, though I still have quite a few gaps to fill. I'll get to it! Also I've just picked up Volume 1 of the Colour Edition. (Which is awesome, by the way).

Anime wise for DBZ, I own the Pioneer volumes (the Ocean Dub), I own all of the Ocean Dub episode on a PC disc too. I own all of the Orange Bricks, and I own Kai Seasons 1-3. I have all of the movies too. I own the 1-5 pack, and the rest I own on double feature steelbooks. I also have Battle of Gods on DVD with subtitles. For Dragonball, I own all of the Blue Bricks from Funimation, as well as the Movie 4 pack. Oddly, I also own the Mystical Adventure film on VHS too. And for DBGT, I own the two green bricks again from Funimation, which includes the film A Heroes Legacy.

Games wise, I own on PS1, Ultimate Battle 22 and Final Bout. Then I own Budokai 1-3, Tenkaichi 1-3, Infinite World, Super Dragonball Z on PS2. Then I own Burst Limit, Raging Blast 1 & 2, and the Budokai HD Collection on PS3.

That's pretty much that!

Dragon Ball GT - Season Sets (Green Bricks), both of them. Also have the old 'Hero's Legacy' single DVD, for it's bonus features.
Dragon Ball Z Kai - Part One, Part Two, Parts Three & Four (Wal-mart combo), and Parts Five & Six (Wal-mart combo).
Movies/TV Specials - Single DVD for 'Curse of the Blood Rubies', old 3-movie set for DB movies 2-4. Steelcase Double Features, all 7 of them. Also have an old single of the second Cooler movie and the first Broly movie for their bonus features.
Manga - VizBig 1 and 3 of DB, Volume 16 of DB, VizBigs 1-2 of DBZ, Volumes 17, 20-21, 24-26. Also have an old single of Volume 1 of DB that I kept because it's unedited.

There's also a huge box of old VHS tapes of all three series and various movies, including some tapes of stuff I taped directly off of Toonami (and an old fansub tape of GT that someone gave me). Have a few books/magazines with series related material as well. Some video games, figures, etc. That's about it.

Ack, I completely forgot about Kai when I first made this post. Edited to include it now.
