Wow that is pretty cool. :thumbup:

It's just a shame they didn't bother to fix the issues with the episodes of 'Season 3'.

Oh wow, like the art! I am gonna wait and see if FUNi do anything new with Dragon Ball ie. a blu ray release, if not I will buy these having realised that I would not be able to upscale the blue bricks.

FUNimation isn't going to because they don't have the footage to remaster in HD and if they did they'd just release an upscaled Blu-ray release.

I like the UK covers for the Dragon Ball, but can't help but feel Season 5 should be a picture of Goku when he's older. The majority of that season is the Tournament when Goku isn't a kid anymore so it's a strange choice.

I like the rest of the covers though, even the yellow covers looks good.

They've been consistently changing them and showing their new ones close to release. For all we know, it might end up being grown up teen Goku or even Piccolo.

Manga UK hasn't really said much (via their FaceBook) other than revealing the new cover of Dragon Ball Vol. 4 and Battle of Gods (Blu-ray, DVD and CE) UK trailer.

So, the same picture is the same as the blue bricks Season 5 but zoomed out. I think it looks better than the blue bricks version.

With Dragon Ball coming to an end Manga UK will have time to reveal either Kai or the DB Films for a UK release.

Madman have the following releases:

Kai - Blu-ray / DVD (1-98)
Movies - DVD (2-4 & 1-13 + 2 TV Specials)

Considering Madman never licenced DBM#1 then Manga UK would need to get it themselves directly from FUNimation or so.
