I wipe it off the tile, the light is brighter this time, everything is 3D blasphemy.

I can't control my shakes, how the hell did I get here? Something about this, so very wrong.
I have to laugh out loud, I wish I didn't like this. Is it a dream or a memory?

Dammit! Now I can't unsee that!

My recent purchase is a Movie Collection Broly Action Figure.

I don't know why that version of Goku appears on this set at all, let alone the 2 nd one. It's weird that if you look at the back and side of the box and the front of the Dragon Book, you can't even tell it's GT because it has kid Goku (from Dragon Ball) through Z Goku on it.

Really?? I noticed that about a year ago when I stumbled across a scan of the pic. :lol:

So you did buy it then? Were you the one talking about the ridiculous price on it a few weeks ago? Sorry, I can't remember if it was you or not. :lol:

I've been gunning for the Banpresto SCultures Piccolo figure. I might do it when I get my taxes back. Hopefully that's not ridiculously priced. There's some on Amazon that are about 100 bucks, but a few that are about 40.

Soppa Saiyjins from Dorgou Ballru Zetto is my favorite transformation everah, especially when Trounksoru did it in front of Seru and when Bejita did it when he faced Jingonigen-hachigo. But for real, I use the FUNi pronunciation. - Soppa Saia People

You do know those are available for free in movie theater lobbies, right? (Though I suppose $10 is about right if they shipped it via EMS…)

Yeah, I get these for the annual Detective Conan films, so I didn't want to pass up a chance to get the DBZ ones. The $10 was almost entirely for shipping quickly to America. I only paid $1.00 for each pamphlet.

A tad cheaper than flying to Japan and fetching them from a movie theater. ^_^;

Nice! I got those too and even if you can't read in Japanese, it's still awesome to have.

I was thinking of scanning mine in and translating them based off of Viz, but might be too.much unnecessary work
