^ Man, I haven't seen DBZ like that since I was like 12

I'm a huge fan of Bruce Faulconer music and the toonami days, but that takes me back to when my older cousin used to take us to the comic shop and rent the OG DBZ tapes on the summer weekends.

In context, the OG music > Bruces.

But Bruces tracks legit can play in the crib

What's the difference?

Dragon Box dvd - The yellow ones are the best remastered quality and the show is in it's original 4:3 ratio with no cropping of the image. I don't think it has Bruce Faulconer music but i'm not 100 on that. The prices on those are wild, complete sets run +$1000. For the super hardcore nerd.

Orange Brick dvd - Quality is cool, the image is cropped to 16:9. It has 3 options for audio, Eng dub with Bruce F., Eng dub with Japanese music, and OG Japanese dub.

Blu Ray season sets - Better quality than Orange Bricks, image is also cropped to 16:9 but it's better than on the Orange Bricks, less heads and mouths being chopped off. All 3 dub and music options like the O bricks.

All 3 are uncut.

Feel nerdy af knowing/typing all this 

 but I did mad research before copping the blu rays a couple of months back.

Late but my favorite DBZ moment

To me Trunks coming from the future was one of my favorite moments

It was so unexpected to me

He kills Freeza/King Cold, was a SSJ, and knew Goku

Who was this guy?

Then when he told Goku his story was bonkers to me

Bought to cop them Blu-rays and give the dvd's to my brother or best friend. Which Blu-Ray's did you get?

 

[drewsone]

Yeah sounds like I might do Blu rays lol.

And Trunks' first appearance was pretty dope.

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/dragonball-z-season-eight-4-discs-blu-ray/8447269.p?skuId=8447269

I got these. I posted a pic a couple pages back and how to cop for the low. If you already have the Orange Bricks idk if it's really worth the upgrade. Not a HUGE difference. Might want to check comparison vids on youtube.

I only bought the blu rays cause my brother lost his Orange Bricks and I couldn't find Bruce Faulconer episodes online 

The music was worth it 

 

 

[jays25]

Man, all this talk has me itching to purchase the box sets for Dragon Ball

View media item 2316832Buy them one at a time. Its only 5 seasons.

This is what I was planning on doing, though, during a brief search, I did see a few bundles options as well. A number of them, however, were more expensive than it'd be to just buy all seasons separately.
