I felt a bit bored, so I thouhgt I might post some pictures, too.

CDs:
Hit Collection 1- 18 1/2 (only # 18 is still missing), game music, bgm, some random cds (I especially like the Hironobu Kageyama '95 and '98 live cds) and a few cd singles.

Image Image Image Image Image

The obligatory daizenshuu, some kanzenban volumes and many dôjinshi.

The DB movie box next to the German movie dvds.

Um, that's everything so far. ^^

Wow, that's pretty impressive. Congrats on what I'm pretty sure is all 7 Daizenshuu plus the two other ones.

All of these CD collections out there actually persuaded me to buy the BGM Collection ($25 at eBay! Search for it while you can!). I'd put up some updated pics, but I can't seem to find my chord for the camera :x...

Impressive collection strawberry :D Especially all those CDs, I'm jealous! I recognise some of the spines on your doujinshi, I think I have a couple of the same xD

I felt like getting the books out today, sorry for the somewhat blurry pictures ;_;

Image

Stupid fat sized manga :P I need to replace those at some point..

Image

My Japanese books :D The one that caught the light is the movie book.. thing.. for the Garlic Jr movie.

Tomorrow I might attempt to show the doujinshi, I didn't feel like getting them out today as there are a lot xD

DON'T! As much as they mess up the spine, they're still worth more than the smaller Viz mangas. Also, they give a little taste of what Viz used to be like (not only on its outside, but on its inside with its ads :D). But if you are to get the later manga just to match, I suggest that you still keep the 1st ed. Viz ones you have. :D

I've been looking forever for some good dojinshi. Do you or anywhere know any online retailers that focus on dojinshi? I can't find very many on ebay...

Basically, dojinshi are fan created mangas based on a popular series. Of course, Dragon Ball has tons. I am interested in some dojinshi because MANY of them look like they are drawn by Toriyama himself.


In case you didn't know, there are tons of hentai dojinshi as well..

EDIT: Holy unicorn. I just found a site with over one hundred DB dojinshi covers and names.

Science damn it! I want to buy these SOOO badly now! :D

Most of the doujinshi I got from yahoo auctions Japan.
I also found some at ebay, but my favourite sellers were kicked for selling hentai and yaoi stuff ^^

First of all, I would like to say hello (from Poland)! This forum is great, and after few months I finally decide to registrate :D . I just couldn't hold back not to post my DB collection here :) .
Maybe this isn't much compare to some others here but I am proud of my collection since I worked hard to get all this stuff :P .

So here we go:
1. Overall look at my collection of japanese books:
Image

2. 7+1 Daizenshuu (They look so beautiful :D ):
Image

3. Dragon Ball Z Jump Special II, Jump Anime Library, Akira Toriyama the World & the World Special:
Image

4. Almost all of the filmbooks (only DB2 and DBZ9 missing):
Image

5. BGM Music Collection, Complete Song Collection 1, Polish Edition of Dragon Ball (all 42) + 4 DB japanese manga. (In the left corner - Dr. Slump):
Image

6. And a little bonus. This is Shenron from all 7 Daizenshuu (I tried to summon him and get my wish granted but unfortunetly nothing happened :P ):

Hey and welcome to the forums! "Isn't much compare to some others"? It sure as heck is better than your normal DB fan'c collection. Getting the first 7 daizenshuu is probably the ultimate goal of most fans who are even aware of them in the first place! You were even able to get most of the daizenshuu with the little tag things. I'd salute you if there was a smiley for it :D.

Hehe ok maybe I exaggerate saying that this isn't much :D . Overall this is almost everything I wanted to have from the DB for years on the first place.
I would like to have all the daizenshuu with the tag 'cause they look very nice on them :D . I also lack 2 of the 7 DB News but it is hard nowadays to get the complete daizenshuu. Anyway 2 more artbooks, 2 filmbooks and 3 Complete Music Collections to go :) .
