Anyway, this ad makes me want to see some ads of the original Japanese Dragon Box. Do you have any, Hujio?
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

I'm glad someone affirmed that. I was starting to freak out, thinking that everyone was serious, because it dragged on so long. :lol:

This isn't for the Z box, but here is one:

I wish we got cool extras like the diaramasa and those really nice Goku and Piccolo figures. All we are getting are those art books. [Which I am interested in seeing]

I was responding inspired by South Park with quote like: They took our job!

It was joke))) But I can imagine some people take that picture-trouble seriously :lol:

Well, it was certainly in the spirit of Dragon Ball in that respect, at least.

That picture is on page 6 of the Dragonbook under the section "Early Days"

I'm going on record saying it's not completely wrong since technically that picture is in the included product.



Additionally hello to everyone and nice to meet you!

Hello Furyus.

At least now we know FUNimation wasn't just putting pictures on the ad at random. It would've been funny, though, if there was one from DBGT. Hahaha!

Yeah, I completely forgot about the "DB: Early Days" part of the Dragon Book. That's probably why they put it there! :P

It really hurts like a bitch having to wait for this thing till Christmas. Oh well, not watching it till 2010 anyway, for my marathon run. 8)
Next quest: Buy the Super: Broly and Super Hero Blurays, also Daima whenever that releases in the states. Also the Super Manga!
