Not so much. I've looked at about half the discs, and they are the trailers/commercials for the movies, a still-screen with the original poster, etc. DBZ Movie 3 has creditless OP/ED, though, which is nice!

The GT box shows a progression of Goku from child to SSJ4. I'll take pics if you want.

No need to. The scans for the GT Dragon Box stuff can all be found here: http://www.dbnet-fr.com/8xg16d/?page=.. ... oxgt.htm:P

Btw, it does sound like the audio has been upped abit to sound like it's stereo. Considering my DVD player shows that the audio is in surround sound. Although I'm pretty sure it's still mono, it still sounds a lot better than the FUNi DVDs.

Also, might I add, that MajinVejitaXV has made me extremely jealous by showing off his Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z Dragon Boxes. :(

It is you. I present to you, the Gogeta scene.

Woah, that's a difference :!:

You could've just kept the black bars on the top and bottom for the Dragon Box version just to see the difference (if any) in size.
10-30 minutes have most likely passed between my clicking to comment and actually posting. Curse my habit of thinking how to word my posts for too long!

There weren't any. :P It's just plain cropped. The bars are only visible through fullscreening the video. Actually, it was the Dragon Box screenshot that was difficult to adjust, rather than the other. Especially since the DVD program snaps the screenshots at completely different sizes. Plus it's easier just adjusting one to the same as the other and keeping them both the same size. :P

Your little section on the Dragonbox made me go to CDJapan and get this set...then I went a little bit crazy and also got the first 6 DVD's of the series... :oops:

You think they would ever release DB or DBGT in single disc sets?

Well, for me its easier to order from a English based site. I think I got ripped off though they charged like 4 somthing for the box alone.

Amazon works in Half english though and allows you to change the language of the page displayed. anything in Japanese works similar to it;'s US counterpart.

But whatever :)

According to Kanzentai.com, there'll be DVD singles for Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball GT, though no date has been set up or which would come first.

£87. £97 including P&P. And its coming in the original cardboard box with everything else apparently, because the guy ordered 2 by mistake.

I too hope this isn't a scam. Why the guy would take a 50% loss nearly instead of returning it to the retailer for full credit is beyond me. Maybe he got shipped two by mistake while only being charged for one (Amazon did that once for me on a cheap DVD) and is just unloading the 2nd copy *shrug*

It's basicly a rundown of the movies, and other things; it has a page about Hironobu Kageyama, but since I do not read Japanese in any efficient sense, I can't really tell you much more.
Although, the pages about the films have each films poster listed between text.
