So my first 5 DBZ Kai Blu-Rays that I bought fromy Krcek7o2 came in the mail today. I was super exited and sort of sped home from school to get them, but that's besides the point. They were packaged very well, and they are in very good condition. Anyway, the reason I am even posting this is about something else. Although I don't think it was mentioned in the listing, these did come with 3 special bonus DVD's! At first I thought that these were just DVD versions of the Kai Blu-Rays, but when I popped them into the DVD player, I was pleasantly surprised to find that they were something else entirely! I won't say what they are, since I guess it's supposed to be a little secret, but I will say that, just like Pokewhiz7, I am extremely satisfied with these DVD's (and the Blu-Ray's also)! Here's a pic! And thanks again to Krcek7o2!

Yeah, I also collect arcade PCBs (I too own the 1992 Macross PCB you mentioned - a much better Banpresto game). The DragonBall Z game doesn't seem that exciting from what little I have played of it. The graphics are decent enough, though.

I'd really like to buy some of the other DragonBall Z arcade games, but with their somewhat high prices and the terrible Yen/Dollar exchange rate, they will probably have to wait. :(

I bought some steel books off him. It's a pretty cool secret.
I have a Dragon Ball collection of sorts which can be seen here.

I'm just going to say that it has been hilarious reading the comments on the identity of the "Secret" DVDs. I'll probably have another sale this weekend. I need to get rid of some DVD R1 & R2 singles. Of course, these "Secret" DVDs will be offered again.

I'm assuming its something unrelated to the main parts of the show (Episodes, Movies, TV Specials), but I suppose I'll never find out. I own the whole series a couple of times over by now, no reason to buy the same stuff for the 20th time. lol Even my stupidity has limits...

I don't know how many are interested in the original Singles. But, I'll give it a shot.

That's the reason why I've been selling most of my DVD collection. I've been buying and re-buying things throughout the years. In the end, I just want to keep my R2 Dragon Boxes, the American Dragon Box Z (and movies), Kai and possibly the Blu-ray remasters. I've been seeing my collection dwindle in the last couple of weeks. But the space that has been opening up is a welcome treat. And of course the extra cash! :lol:

That, right there is worth quite a hefty sum.

Just got the rest of the DBZ vizbig volumes in the mail today from amazon! Whew! Now I don't have to worry about any more volumes going out of print. And yay! I can now read the whole series all the way through! Now the next goal is Rurouni Kenshin VIZBIG.

- I prefer Saffron Henderson's Kid Gohan and Kid Goku over Stephanie Nadolny's.
- I still hope for a redub of Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z with FUNimation's current cast.
- I prefer to watch Dragon Ball Z with the Faulconer Score, however I do not mind the original Japanese score.

Good for you. The Rurouni Kenshin VIZBIG are awesome and nearly flawless. And they look good next to Dragon Ball:

Reading this makes me even more excited to start collecting it and I agree, it does look nice next to Dragon Ball!
