Crown Jewel Of Your Collection

Budogenkai · Post by **Budogenkai** » Sun Jan 09, 2011 8:44 pm

I don't really have much Dragonball stuff, just 3 Dragon Boxes and a couple of small figures. Though I am working on framing a poster I just got off amazon, i'll post a pic of what it looks like soon.

Great idea for a thread! Here's my good stuff:

#1: I guess I'd have to go with the obligatory Japanese Dragon Boxes as a crown jewel. These things are mind-blowing to say the least and I really enjoy having them. Along with them my Daizenshuu, of which I'm only missing two. They're pretty damn special to me as well!

#2: My dad got this for me for $50 back in 1997! perfect shot of Young Goku after fighting Piccolo Daimaoh! It's had line fading due to my being a child and having it framed in a room with lots of direct sunlight. I'm trying to see if I can ship it to a guy in DC who restores animation cels. Saw his work and it's impressive. Tangents aside, great piece!

#3: The "budget" Spanish re-releases of the manga! I got the complete set and the were 3 Euros a pop. This marked the first time the manga was released in Spain with the proper Japanese right-to-left reading format. It also had a redone translation far more faithful than the previous comic style and tankoubon releases. Also worthy of noting, the red books next to them? All of Dragon Fall!

#4: Spanish DBZ Dragon Boxes. Dub of my youth, Japanese with great subs, Dragon Box masters... Glad I got them when I did!

Wow, thats awesome. I want!!!!

thats awesome bro, where did you get the Spanish Dragon Boxes and how much did you pay for them?

SonGokuGT · Post by **SonGokuGT** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 12:23 am

Got them in Spain. Payed between 30-50 Euros depending on where I picked them up. El Corte Inglés, fnac, Media Markt, mom and pops shops, some were gifts from family... I'm saving up for the DB, GT and movie boxes now.

I've always been so curious.. What's the difference between the Spanish Dboxes and the Japanese Dboxes? .. <:O

Well, they are a Dragon Box source but interlaced and PAL with some tweaking. They have Spanish [Castilian], Catalan, Galician, Basque and Japanese tracks and Spanish subs.
Here's a couple links but they're in Spanish, one is a SPA/JPN comparison image:

I don't really have anything outside of DVDs...and I don't consider a DVD set a crown jewel unless it's autographed or something.

Possibly my Complete Song Collection... the one with 13 discs. I got it a few months ago for about $115 of one of the members here.

They look even better in the flesh!
I got them from ebay. I bought them from this seller. They're a little pricey due to the scarcity of them.
You might also want to try Mandrake, you might find them cheaper there.

I had several signed FUNi singles but I sold them all since I was broke.

At least I made more for them. $10 is a lot better than $5.

I love all of my things. Probably since they're not that much.

But I can safely say that the DBOXes stand out. I've been wanting to own Dragon Ball Z in its entirity for far too long and this is a dream come true... or coming true at least.

Oh, I also love the hell out of my Dragonball VizBig Vol. 1. That is another dream coming true right now.

Let me justify my words with a couple of pics:

And this is how happy Dragon Ball makes me.

Hey guys, before i said that my 2 kanzenbans and Funi Dragonboxes were my crown jewel, but I would like to add something else. I'd have to say that my Weekly Shonen Jump issues #24 and 25 from 1995, which include the second to last chapter and last chapter of Dragonball, are my crown jewels. At least to me.

Probably my Dragonboxes. They are just perfect in every way possible.

Were you going for a Spinal Tap reference there?

BluezaBladeNZ · Post by **BluezaBladeNZ** » Tue Jan 11, 2011 2:44 am

I don't really have any valuable merchandising or rare products but I'll have to say my FUNimation's Dragon Boxes, but will be even better once all seven are released.

I kinda forgot to post pictures, but here the are finally. Yes, I have multiple things that I treasure dearly, but it's only a part of my Dragon Ball collection. I guess I have two more things not pictured: the Dragonball & Dragonball Z Daizenshū (5-disc set), and my old-school, Japanese DB games. The former I haven't received yet, since I only just bought it.

My Special "Manga Style" Edition of the Dragon Ball comics:

My Complete Song Collection Box:

My volumes of Dragon Box Z, my Saga of Goku box set, and my Uncut Movie Trilogy box set:
