Yeah, well, I pestered the manager for months asking if I could take some before they sent the machine back and (he? she?) finally said yes, after closing, the night before it was taken away.

I opened a set of them then boxed the rest up for storage. I must have 40 or 50 of them, I didn't count :lol: I was a lucky guy
You're actually f***ing ridiculously lucky.

I dunno. I'd have to go digging for them. I KNOW that I have doubles of each one of the 8, but again, I don't know how many I have exactly (at least 40 or 50). If I find them, I'll be sure to let you know. :D

Well, if this doesn't take me back! I got this mini poster for free at a convention in Dallas, TX back in I think 2002, might have been '03. FUNi was giving them out to anyone who came by their booth. There were a lot of the Z voice actors there and I managed to get all of their signatures. A few years later the DBZ Trading Card Game Tour came to a mall in my city and I was able to add Josh Martin (Majin Boo) to the collection. His is singed in silver sharpie and may not show very well on this. The image quality isn't that great, had to take the pic from my Blackberry. If you guys like it and are interested in a higher quality picture I know many girls with digital cameras that would let me borrow one, so that is a possibility. Below I'll post a little chart of where each signature is and what it says. Some of them are personalized to me with funny notes or greetings. Yes, my name is Jordan as that will shortly become apparent.

Top Left, above Dabra and Babidi:

Jordan - Great 2 C U at A-Kon!
Kyle Hebert
Teen Gohan

Top Center, over SS Goku and SS Vegeta's hair:

Chris Sabat
Vegeta, Piccolo

Top Right, above #18:

Meredith McCoy

Middle Left, over Babidi and SS Gohan's faces:

Jordan, Run Sucka!
Dameon Clarke - Cell

Middle Right, extending from SS Vegeta down to SS Trunks:

To Jordan
Sean Schemmel
Goku
King Kai
Nail

Bottom Left, over Cell's face:

Cynthia Cranz, Chi-Chi

Bottom Center, over SS Goku's right leg:

Mike McFarland
Master Roshi
&
Yajirobe

Bottom Right #1, over SS Trunks's hand:

Eric Johnson
Trunks

Bottom Right #2, over Fat Boo's head:

Buu!
Josh Martin
Total nostalgia trip. A couple fun facts. The first two actors at the FUNi booth on Day 1 were Schemmel and Cranz. I was running late to the con and barely made it to see them. They literally closed off the autograph line after I hopped in as the last second. Cranz signed over Cell's face because Chi-Chi wasn't on the poster. Later that day was Hebert and Eric Johnson (now Eric Vale). At the time of this con, the only Hebert-voiced character to appear on the CN dub of Z was Piroshki, Mr. Satan's student, so I hadn't even heard his Gohan, Paikuhan or West Kaio voices. He gave me some samples of how each voice would sound, was pretty cool. I was amped about meeting Johnson because Trunks is my favorite character. Got him to say "You're about to fight a real Super Saiyan!" for me, which was pretty bad ass to my 14-15 year old self back then. I think I got Clarke's next, can't remember exactly what he said but when he saw Cell's face had been signed over he said something to the effect of "Cynthia Cranz, that no good little something-something...". I'm not censoring him or anything, I honestly can't remember. I got a laugh out of that. At the mall tour signing, Clarke was there with Josh Martin and he tried to sign it again! I had to point out that he already signed it, then when he saw his signature he was pretty impressed that I had held onto that thing for a few years and kept it in good shape. I know I'm a pretty vocal sub fan on here but the dub voice actors are great, funny and nice people and I was really pleased to find this old thing in the attic at my father's place over the holidays.

I want to buy them. Not too expensive though, I want to see which ones you have first and then we should talk prices :P.

I wont be asking for too much, Id much rather trade for other figures. I'm thinking maybe $5-10 a figure? is that a fair price?
