Why would you want the edited dub only releases?
Was it for a sense of nostalgia or the awesome cover art?

Same. I recently saw an episode of the Ocean dub Saiyan saga on TV and all the nostalgia I was feeling sent me to the next dimension.

This month I've bought DB Vizbig 3, 4, and 5, and DBox 1 and 2. Pretty much broke till next week now.
What does the scouter say about his blood alcohol level?

I just placed an order for Goku and Chichi DX figures. Both are so hot I can barely wait to get my perverted hands on them!

Chichi! At last you'll be mine!

What?? I could'nt get my hands on one when they we're coming out! Where is everybody getting these figures? (I'm at work and most sites that I look at for these figures are blocked) I really want that Goku one. Where did you order it from Scarz?

When eBay and other toy sites fail, I go to my last resort: Toywiz.com. Here are the links to the figures I brought from the site:
Dragon Ball x One Piece Goku
BanPresto figure Chichi

So would you say Toywiz is not a good site to order from?

Thanks Scarz! Toy wiz is one of the sites that's blocked on my work computer. But thanks to searching the exact url in google and then clicking on the "cached" button of the result, I've beat the system!
There's one thing I'm confused about. When I go to the Toy Wiz, it shows me 2 different prices for Goku in Luffy costume. One for $34.99 and the other for $15.99. The $34.99 is the price I see when I go to the actual items page:
Then when I go to a different item like Nami in Goku costume and look under the You May Also Like section, it shows Goku in Luffy costume for $15.99:
I should mention that when I click on the $15.99 Goku, it takes me back to the $34.99 Goku. I can't check out yet since i can't "cached" the check out page. How much did you pay for it?

That's very odd, paid $15.99 for Goku and the same for Chichi. The price never changed when went to the checkout. In fact I'm checking out the site now and it's still $15.99. Could it be your work computer? Even so, that wouldn't make a lot of sense.

In most cases Toywiz charges twice the amount for figures and card game sets. I even heard that their costume service wasn't very good at all. Back then Toywiz was the most expensive toy site to visit. I got lucky and paid retail prices for Goku and Chichi. So who knows, maybe things have finally changed.

Just got Pioneer's Dead Zone and the original edited Saga of Goku box set. Dead Zone was $7 and The Saga of Goku was $10. Couldn't pass them up for nostalgia sake.

Yea that was weird. I came home and everything was normal. I'm glad I had those pictures though. Otherwise you all would have thought I was crazy

I just bought it by the way. Thanks for letting me know where to get it Scarz! I also couldn't help but buy the 4 foot long Shenlong plush on that site.

Dragon Ball Evolution.
I know it was a sucky movie and all, but I just wanted to own it because it's Dragon Ball!
And I got it cheap.

I just took advantage of that 'Gold Box Deal' thing on Amazon the other day and ordered DragonBox 2. The shipping option said, "2-3 business days," so hopefully it'll arrive before the weekend.

Those crane game prizes look amazing, are they similar or the same as the high spec releases? I really want some of those but I live in the UK so no crane gaming for me!
