The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

Its part of the Unifive Museum Collection.. It's quite hard to find for a good price. On eBay, you're probably looking at around $70+ a piece...
I have a Dragon Ball collection of sorts which can be seen here.

I bought a Krillin badge... It's a pain in the ass to go out and find things to buy in New Zealand.

Have it and it's awesome! Really like the 2nd and 3rd version of Chala Head Chala, I'm missing playing with Trunks in story mode and can't get Freeza's spaceship. Also, Legend of Mr. Satan is awesome!!

$40 even, from Amazon. Shipped early too. I love him, but it was definitely painted to fit with the SDCC Goku, not the original 3 from Japan. Make me wonder if the Japanese version will have the same paint job, or be done manga style like the previous releases there. I don't like this split scheme thing they have going on, its making me not want to collect Gohan, since he doesn't fit in. Piccolo isn't a Super Saiyan though, so his color scheme could work I guess...its not like he'll be missing orange in his hair.

I wouldn't worry about the 7th box, it doesn't contain the majority of peoples favorite episodes but this is just my opinion. I'm waiting til after christmas.

But my last purchase was Level 1.2, I very much prefer the level sets to the Dbox for watching dragon ball. I do not care for NEPs as they're useless on home format imo.. they're best kept for tv airings.

Well, I had the extra money and that was all I really wanted at the time. :wink:
I think NEPs should remain on the disc. I usually skip them for other shows that I don't know what's going to happen, but even if I never watch them, I still want to have them. With Dragon Ball, I already know what'll happen, so I just watch them. Kinda funny.

This one I got off of ebay but I am sure you cold find them somewhere else. These figures I am looking for are from the museum collection. There is a lot of artwork that was in the first Daizenshuu that these figures are based off of. I only need 2 maybe 3 more of them but I don't like paying more than 30$ for them so I patiently wait :lol:

Dragon Ball Z Kai Part 4

Dragon Ball Z Double Feature: Super Android 13 and Bojack Unbound
Dragon Ball Z Double Feature: History of Trunks and Bardock - The Father of Goku
Dragon Ball Z Double Feature: Fusion Reborn and Wrath of The Dragon

All I need is the Broly Triple Feature and I'll have completed my collection of the Z movies! Still need to get DBZ Kai parts 1, 2, 3, 6, 7 and 8 and possible Season 1 and 2.

That's precisely why ordinary men pursue the concept of perfection, it's infatuation. But ultimately I have to ask myself "What is the true meaning of being perfect?" and the answer I came up with was nothing. Not one thing. The truth of the matter is I despise perfection! If something is truly perfect, that's IT! The bottom line becomes there is no room for imagination! No space for intelligence or ability or improvement! Do you understand? To men of science like us, perfection is a dead end, a condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you but not perfect! Scientist's agonize over the attempt to achieve perfection! That's the kind of creatures we are! We take joy in trying to exceed our grasp, in trying to reach for something that in the end, we have to admit may in fact be unreachable!"

Just wondering, were the double features on BD or DVD? If it was DVD, how much was Bojack?
