Please remember that you are expected to type properly on this forum. You may want to re-read the forum rules.

I could be wrong, but from what I remember, only the first printing/releases of the volumes had the little pamphlets in them. If you're only just getting them, I doubt they're from the first run.

I got a bunch of first printing Kanzenban at used bookstores in Japan. But, seeing as how they're used, of course they didn't have the Dragonball Children things. I wonder if it's still possible to track them down?

There's your answer, right there!

The Dragonball Children inserts were only available with the first edition printings.

But they're used, meaning the inserts are missing. Boo hoo.

I recently picked up some more (used) kanzenban at Book-Off in NYC, and they still had their inserts :P. It's not out of the question... but it's certainly not likely.

Interesting. I got mine at a Book Off in Japan! I wish they had those damn inserts, though, since they didn't reprint them all. :x
