Actually I won these off a different bid for $150. The bid you are talking about ended at $215, I was bummed out that I lost that one so I searched again right after the bid and found the whole set being sold again in like new condition with slip covers for 150. I was able to get the better deal.

I like to imagine that the "Best of Goku" DVD is just two hours of this:

DBGT the complete DVD set. And also 5 Dragon Ball Heroes cards(the ones that come with gummi). I'm thinking about starting a small DBH collection because they look SO COOL. :mrgreen:

After being backordered for two months, my Japanese Xenoverse guide finally arrived this week. Must've been pretty popular, because this is a second printing dated March 17th.
Also pictured is the April V Jump, which I've had since late February, but I figured I might as well toss it into the shot too.

Not pictured is Xenoverse itself, because I have it digitally on Steam.

Also have an order going for the May and June V Jumps, and the Japanese extended version of Battle of Gods on BD. I expect they'll all ship together in about three weeks.

Huh, really? I didn't know that...or, more likely, I forgot.

You probably can't unlock Vegeta this way in other version than Japanese right?

So after about a year of getting out bid, people backing out of sales, and just non-availability.. I finally got hold of the Australian Madman release of The Saiyan Conflict, to go along with the USA release.

I've left a gap in my shelf, as I have the second box, The Namek Saga currently being shipped to me by a friend in Australia who accepted delivery of it (Ebay). Once that arrives, I think I should have the officially released 'Ocean Dub' sets completed.

What's the difference between the Pioneer and Madman releases?

Also where can you get V-Jump? I saw someone in the thread and a V-Jump magazine, and got curious.

I've only just checked out the first disc, but straight away there are differences.

The AUS set has a basic "stand by for Dragon Ball Z' Opening before the credits, where as the US set has a brief introduction to Goku and his backstory.

The AUS set is also split into actual Episodes with 'Previously on' bits... where as the US set is edited together like a feature length show.

So far that's all i've watched at the moment.

I see... The sound much better than the Pioneer sets then. Thanks!

The Madman DVD's include all of the correct recaps and next episode previews for all of the Ocean-dubbed episodes. The Pioneer DVD's are marathoned and thus only include the recap for the first episode on a DVD and a next episode preview for the last episode on a DVD. The only problem with Madman's release is the "ghosting" due to the PAL conversion or whatever. If it weren't for that, I'd say the Madman DVD's are the definitive way to watch the Ocean dub. The reason for that is because for some reason, episode 9 on the "Rock The Dragon Edition" set uses episode 10's next episode preview, so both episode 9 and 10 share the same next episode preview. I do know that other countries in the UK got some official Ocean-dubbed DVD's but I don't think they ever made it past episode 4 or 5.
