Mexican DVD releases of the franchise?

Post by dragonfist » Sun Feb 13, 2011 3:35 pm

Does anyone know where to find, if there are any, legal releases of the original Dragon Ball & Z with the Mexican dub included besides FUNimation's UUE discs? Would be interested in importing them since this was the original dub of the show that I heard and because I am a native speaker of Spanish. Preferable it be on the internet from a respectable store since I live in Puerto Rico, the only DVD releases one gets here are American-produced releases from companies like FUNimation. Thanks in advance.

I remember a while ago I saw single DVDs being released with the Mexican Dub, but If I remember correctly in one of the podcasts here they said they had halted their production [dunno why].

I was in the same spot, the only place I know where I could buy stuff from Latin America was an ebay like place called "mercado libre" but that's not even 100% trustworthy T^T. So what I ended up doing was getting the American release of all three parts [DB, DBZ, DBGT] for the original Japanese audio and downloading the Latin dub. I'm pretty sure you're like me and want it mostly for 'sentimental value' so I think this is the only option until something better us released.

I have all of the Mexican DVD's. They have horrible picture quality but they have the Mexican title cards. It's got some charm to it regardless of picture quality.

Hi, a Boxset with 5 DVD's was released on Mexico, including 52 episodes.

The quaility is really bad but includes the original mexican title cards. The master used for these DVD's is the same used for TV on Latin America.
