It's about damn time! My Blu-Ray finally showed up! Looking forward to watching it tonight.

I had originally ordered the standard edition, but once the Jump special was announced as a special feature I had to spend the extra money. I wasn't ever lucky enough to get the previous limited DVD release of the special so when I had a chance to finally own it I just had to go for it. I now officially own every single episode, film and special!

It all looks pretty damn impressive all lined up!

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

It was framed by a local shopkeeper who's been in the business for over 30 years; he's the only person I go to.

Well, I got my BoG blu-ray pre-order that I'll refrain from posting so as not to add to the ever growing pile of photos for the same product.
Aside from that though, I picked up another cel to add to my collection. This time we have a non-SSJ Vegeta from the Buu arc:-
It's certainly not that colourful in person but yes, it's very nice.

Bought from an eBay auction and fingers crossed it has the Yamamoto score or it's going back.
I'll also pick up Burst Limit which has Yamamoto's music, as for RB1 I might but not anytime soon because I'm just focused on Yamamoto's soundtrack current-gen games.
Edit: The copy I bought has the BBFC logo instead, maybe I'll be lucky.
FUNimation 2015 Releases I want:
- Kai 2.0 on Blu-ray

So difficult to find a poster for Dragon Ball that isn't terrible so I was very pleased to find this:
Supposedly something early from Japan including a very badly translated passage from the start of Vol. 17.

I agree - they all look like something a twelve yer old yo would have scotch taped to the wall. I keep looking for one that are similar to the new Battlestar Galactica 'we want you' posters. I think yours comes pretty close!

That's pretty awesome. Want to do a similar thing with mine, but can't decide on whether to cut off the advertising at the bottom. Ultimately, I think I'll end up leaving the poster as is, instead of potentially wrecking it. The thing actually looks amazing in person. The photo of it on
CDJapan really doesn't do it justice.
