Not exactly Dragon Ball, but I got a new book case today that will be my collection's new home. :D

I might post some pictures in the other thread later on.

Dragon Ball - Tournament Saga
Dragon Ball - General Blue Saga
Dragon Ball - Commander Red Saga
Dragon Ball - Fortune Teller Saga

Just received the General Blue Saga set in the mail today, still waiting on the other three. I doubt I'll be able to collect the entire set because the Piccolo Jr. and King Piccolo Saga box sets are pretty tough to find for a reasonable price, but it's nice to have these sets in my collection anyway.
It's been done countless times before, but...

I was at Half Price Books last night, browsing around, not really intending on buying anything. Then I came across their Manga section and found this beauty at the very bottom shelf...standing there all by itself (no other DragonBall related stuff near it). I paid $7.99 for it. 8)

You want it? I'll sell it to you for roughly what I paid for it once I get it in the mail next week. Shipping to Namek might be a little expensive, though.

Also, I just purchased this for $10 from someone on eBay from New York, with the surname LaBrie. :shock:

I was mistaken, I need the Red Ribbon Army Saga [number 3 on the spine] not the Tournament saga. Do you have that one?

Just spent a pretty penny for If Labs Special Edition Cooler w/ silver armor. I don't care what people say about the If Labs lines, both Coolers' couldn't look any better! He looks AMAZING in person, better than I remember considering I used to own the normal version about 10 years ago when originally released. My phone's camera does not do it justice.

Yeah, he looks very life-like and I keep going to pick him up to gaze in awe every 20 minutes. Just simply amazed.

Now I can't wait for my Banpresto figures to get here!

Good job on picking up the IF Labs Cooler's! Esepcially the Final Form Cooler which practically looks as lifelike as you can get with transferring from 2D Animation into Action Figure.

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!"

Not really purchased, but my girlfriend just gave me DBZ Kai Part 5 for my birthday (I had received 1-4 and 6 for Christmas).

I got the Broly triple feature on Blu-ray in the mail yesterday. and I was pleased with it :) Defiantly going to buy the rest on Blu-ray. sure I'd prefer the Dragon-box but I'm fine for now :)
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
