No, it tastes like booty sweat. Only funny part in Tropic Thunder :lol:

Sorry for answering a bit late Scarz. I havn't gotten a chance to drink it yet, but I will soon. I got them from a site called Bigbagtoystore.com. It was my first time ordering anything from them and it was a great experience. The prices were good and the shipping was fast! I recommend them.

I actually haven't bought anything Dragon Ball related since a user here sold me a couple of her Hybrid Goku & Trunks figures. They're cool, but damn fragile. There's no moving their joints around without them falling off. But they look nice and came with little display stands.

That was a while ago. Most recently I realized I'd forgotten about Dragon Ball Z Kai and hopped to buying Part 4 & pre-ordering Part 5. Even if it ends at Cell, I already started collecting the series and I like it, so I might as well "finish" it.

Oh wow! You did it! I thought it was going to take you some time to collect all of the Freeza's Force figures. But here you got them all in one go. That must have been expensive, but congratulations! I still can't stop drooling at Freeza's space ship.

Nice catch on the Freeza's force, can't say I'm envious since I'm very blah about Freeza. But it's very impressive you got the whole set.
Otaku at heart.

I bought the figures from Archonia. Total cost for the figures + shipping was around $180. I decided to buy them after I bought the spaceship.

Archonia is the only place besides Ebay that I know of that has all of the Freeza's Force figures. The prices on Archonia are in Euros and appear to be more expensive if you're not signed into an account on their site. Pictures included below to show this.

Prices with an account.

Prices without an account.

It's odd to, because you can't buy anything from Archonia without an account.

How did you manage to get those reduced prices to show? I've logged in and it's still exactly the same as the bottom picture.
Next to get; Leged of Saiyan figures and Freeza's force

If anyone sees
Any of the Legend of Saiyan line going cheapish
Or any other Banpresto DBZ figure :)

If anyone has a cooler steelbook dvd that wants to sell it (prefer new but used is fine) when/if the dragon box movies comes out contact me :)

Yes, that is Hard Gay. Why is he in this doujinshi? I have no idea. But it's hilarious. He's only on that single page, though.

I think I have an answer to that. You live in the UK. I'm guessing the reduced prices only apply to certain countries.

To test this:

I created a another random US account: The reduced prices showed.
I also created a random UK account: The reduced prices didn't show.

Thanks, I just tried it, that sucks soo bad, I was going to get all of Freeza's Force then for £100 which is a pretty good deal :), oh well I've sent them an e-mail asking, just in case, it never hurts to chance it :)
Thanks

I got my hands on the manga version of the Jump Special! It looks nice, but it was mostly the exact same thing as the anime special. If anything, the manga made me want to watch the anime version. But I got it for $10 on ebay, so it's a nice thing to add to my collection.

Image

On the same day, I also got in a Ginyu DX figure and the Videl Pichi Pichi Gal figure. Ginyu is a freakin monster in size compared to my other figures. He's also a bit heavier. I like it though. I want to get Freeza and Zarbon of the same line so that it doesn't look like I have a random enemy in the mix. I've wanted that Videl for a long time. I never liked Videl's haircut in the series, so when I realized there was a figure of her before her haircut, I had to have it lol.

Image

Image

My figures collection is growing :mrgreen:.

Now I wait for my figures from Angolz to arrive. It's going to feel like an eternity!

Hey man, how much did you pay for Ginyu and Videl? Were they from ebay?

I got them from ToysLogic.com. I got the last Videl they had for $22.00, so it's not up there anymore, but there's one more Ginyu I think. And he's only $12.99. I've seen Ginyu around other online stores for about the same price, so he shouldn't be too hard to find.

I searched ebay and couldn't find the manga version of the special. What key words did you put in in order to find it?

It was hard to find. It was under, "dragonball manga japan rare". I got lucky in finding it. I was the only bidder for that auction.
