As far as VHS goes I rented the 3 Pioneer movies from Blockbuster in the late nineties (98/99 I think?). I owned the first Trunks Saga VHS and I also paid S+H through some Burger King promotion to get 2 filler episodes from the Android Saga (one was the drivers license one, can't remember the other). I also had Cooler's Revenge on VHS.
Hi, and welcome!

You're now one of us.

Spelling, also important.

The first DVD (and video product period) I ever bought was Deagon Ball Z season 4.

My first was "Ginyu Assault" when Columbia House offered a Dragonball Z subscription. [No, I'm not kidding]

The first set of the GT "lost episodes." Got one more set of GT after that and that was all for GT. Had plenty of vhs's of mostly Z before that. Man those 3-4 episode sets sure were a ripoff, especially when we live in an age with Orange Bricks~!

Some Cell saga FUNimation DVD.

The first DragonBall DVD I ever owned was FUNi's release of Fusion Reborn. Gonna be a bittersweet moment when I sell it towards the corresponding Double Feature in a few months.

A warranted and hearty "lollerskates F41L!"

I kid, I kid.

Let's add a little variety to the thread; How long have you been collecting the series for?

I've been collecting the series since 2000 I believe, and unfortunately I've yet to complete the entire series. Sad story.

My first ever Dragon Ball DVD was the Dragon Ball Z Uncut Movie Trilogy by Pioneer. It was a boxset containing the first three DBZ movies (Ocean Group dub). I still have it too!

xzero · Post by **xzero** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 9:56 am

My first DBZ DVD was Freeza: Transformation, purchased from a local EBX for $20. I actually bought it because I thought the episode that had (what later came to be known as) "Vegeta Fights Freeza," the dub battle song, on it. I was disappointed to find out that it didn't, so the next month when the next DVD came out, I picked that one up. It kind of snowballed from there. I now own every single and box set except for some of the re-releases of the already-released movies (not the new ones, things like the Broly Thinpack and whatnot). And yes, I did buy almost all of them at the $20 price point as they released. Funimation loves me.

Hmm, I can't really remember the first one I bought. I kind of went crazy and bought up most of the series at the same time on ebay/half.com.

DB_Fan · Post by **DB_Fan** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 12:21 pm

It was the 10th Anniversary Special. Before that, I only had most movies on VHS.

Adamant · Post by **Adamant** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 12:43 pm

Pioneer's "The Saiyans" and "Snake Way". 60$ a pop at a shabby import store, and no one told me it was some crappy censored dub I had no real interest in watching.

But it was Dragonball, so yay!

I had VHS' before I had DVDs of DBZ, so I have two answers, my first VHS's were (bought the same time in 1998):

and

My first DVD was:

which I bought at the tale end of 2000 as one of my first DVDs ever, since I got my first DVD player that christmas (Incidentally the other two were the first volumes of Rurouni Kenshin and Gundam Wing).

Post by **VegettoEX** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 12:59 pm

I'll jump in on the full answers.

First Fansub VHS: DBZ episodes 95-106 (two tapes), 1996(?)
First Commercial VHS: Arrival (FUNimation), 1997(?)
First Commercial DVD: Captain Ginyu: Assault (FUNimation), 2000
First Commercial Blu-ray: No DBZ stuff yet, though it'll probably end up being DBZ movie 1...

My first ever DVD was... hmm...

Dragon Ball: The Path to Power

Then a couple of months later I got:

Dragon Ball GT: The Lost Episodes 1

After that, it was the Perfect Cell Saga boxset and the Kid Buu boxset. Then it all just kept coming one after the other.

Kanzenshuu
