Yes!That's the one.God I love that picture!
Oh and btw,how do you upload pictures?

I took the screens using this method. I use Imgur to host the images.

Anybody know anything about Dragon Box 4? Any release dates or additional information? Would the absence of such be a cause for concern?

We should see at least a trailer and cover in June.

[Goku100xKamehameha]

If the 4th cover is will be Cell,5th will be Gohan,6th will be Piccollo!? and 7th will be SSJ Goku

[jordanator]

Thanks for that. I'll try that when my boxes arrive.
Does anyone know how long Supermart takes to pack something?
I ordered on the 9th, it's the 14th today, and my Play.com status is still ''packing''.
I also ordered from BestPrices on the 9th, but my status for them changed to ''posted'' on the 12th.
I'm kinda getting a bit worried about Supermart...

[SSJSteve]

I'm Kinda getting a bit worried about Supermart...

Don't worry, they usually take about 10-14 days for delivery. You might get it sometime next week.

[jordanator]

Thanks for the reassurance, SSJSteve.
I read that it may take 10-14 days, but I'm sh*tting myself thinking that it will come either battered to pieces, scratched and dented, or that I won't even receive it! I'm so paranoid!
As stupid/idiotic as it may sound, I'm worried they may have forgotten about it!
Also, the thing that most worries me is that I ordered all 3 Dragon Boxes from 2 users. DBOX 1 and 3 from Supermart, and DBOX 2 from BestPrices. So there's a chance all 3 of my boxes will be damaged.

The next should be Gohan since he is the same age as the the cover on the box. If he was on the fifth one, he would need his post-HBTC look.

The second box having Android-arc Vegeta should show that relevance in terms of appearance isn't an issue.

[jordanator]

I looked at some guy's picture yesterday(he is a member) and he had the two Japanese Dragon Boxes.He also had two GT Boxes and some others.If the two GT Boxes were in fact GT Dragon Boxes,isn't that a guarantee that we will get GT Dragon Boxes?
I think i saw this picture in the ''Dragon ball Crap'' thread...Or ''Your most recent Dragon ball purchase''

Not necessarily. If the Dragonboxes sell well enough, then there might be a chance that the others might get released in the future. As for right now, the issue at hand is if we'll get a release for the Dragonbox Z Movies, because it was said that FUNimation will release the movies depending on how well the Z Dragonboxes sell.

So that should answer your question in some form.

No, the only guarantee we have is that Dragon Box Z, the show content at least, will be released with a strong possibility that the DBZ movies will follow. I think FUNimation shot themselves in the foot when they introduced the DBZ Dragon Boxes before the Dragon Ball sets were even released as people who might have supported that release are now holding off on the expectation that Dragon Ball Dragon Boxes must be following.

On a different note, it seems like Dragon Box 3 has finally been released from "Pre-order Hell" on Amazon.ca and has graduated to "Usually ships within 7 to 13 days Hell." It's not a whole lot better, but it's a bit of progress.

[jordanator]

But why are they(if they do) releasing Dragon Box movies if there are already good quality steelcase movies and ''new-enough'' Blu-ray movies?
As for the GT Dragon Box,I'd love it if they were produced...I'd also love the DB Dragon Boxes!
Also, why are FUNImation competing with themselves? Like the season sets vs. the Dragon boxes,Steelcase/Blu-ray movies vs. Dragon Box movies.

[TonyTheTiger]

I don't think they're competing with themselves so much as trying to scrape up the little that's left to exploit. I have a sneaking suspicion the other Dragon Boxes will be coming soon enough. DragonBall is Funimation's golden goose and there's only so much material out there they can feed off of. There's still the Jump special and a few odds and ends but, for the most part, they've already done everything. If they want to keep making money off the property they're going to have to come up with new ways to sell it to people. Regardless of how decent the blue and green bricks are, the Dragon Boxes would be a new source of income. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if we see Blu-ray transfers of the series in some fashion. Either the orange brick footage or Dragon Box footage.

[OutlawTorn]

It would be for the same reason the DBZ Dragon Boxes are being released, while the quality of the double features may be good, they're still not as good as the Dragon Box masters.

[jordanator]

Oh thanks.I haven't bought any of the steelcase or Blu-rays yet.I would buy all the Blu-rays, it's just I don't know whether they support region 2.As for the steelcase movies,how is the quality?Are they remastered?

[Goku100xKamehameha]

Yeah,they "Digitally Remastered" it.

[jordanator]

So are they like the orange bricks with lines missing,zoomed in etc.?

They not competing to themselves it's just because of money,they re-re(and still re- for any future release)lease DB many times so they can have more money.many fans angry at Funimation when they announced the DBox (you can find a lot of fan's rant video at YouTube)and most fans already have the season sets (fortunately I haven't buy any season sets ,I was going to but at that time I wanna buy season sets DBox announced so I just buy DBox).

[jordanator]

Cool.Actually I only recently discovered the Dragon Box and I also (naively) was going to ''haul'' in all of the season sets until i found a comparison video on Youtube.Thank God I found that!
