Raf...I just wanted to say thanks for shitting all over my post with yours. It's nice that you throw up your endless supply of Scrooge McDuck money to get what you want while the rest of us just struggle with what we get.....jerk...

lol....Im JOOOOOKINNNNNNNNG......dude...that is about the most serious HAUL I have seen on this site since I've been here....HOLY SHIT!!

.and what you said is the truth..if you worked hard...and the KEY...you are debt free...then you can do what you want to do with your money..
that right there..is AMAZING....!!!

I will say one thing though...
For ME..collecting...though we always wish we had this or that, or could finish up the collections....the hunt..and need, and desire to get the one's that are currently out of reach for WHATEVER reason...is a huge part of the collecting to me...

One time when i was actually able to get a whole line of what i wanted easily...it felt like it took some of the fun out of it..like it was too easy to achieve....but that's just collecting....

again.....FUGGIN AWESOME COLLECTION MAN....

Lol, thank you very much my friend! I agree with you about the hunt 100%...the problem tough, where do you find DBZ SH @ retail? Most of my stuff is displayed MOC on regular plastic shelves. Now, I'm having serious doubts about this toy line. My kids want to open them and I want to keep the MOC like the rest of my stuff. If they convince me, I have a glass display shelf that would be perfect for it.

True...Aside from what is current..I've only seen ONE store with any for sale.
..and speaking of glass shelf...here's that same store..to me these things NEED to be opened.

kylactus · 10-22-2015, 06:15 PM

Is DBZ a good show? I know I probably sound like a jackass to the die hard fans, But I was never able to get into it. I've seen three episodes,(not sure what season or version) and nothing happened. as I recall one guy was "charging up" to blast a bad guy while others were protecting him, for three episodes, and I got the impression he'd been doing it for a while, and when he finally let loose he missed... mind you this was at least 15 years ago, but the disappointment of that experience made me subconsciously avoid the whole thing. But now it seems a lot of people that are into the same things I like are all about DBZ.

jamesmruddy · 10-22-2015, 06:25 PM

Found this at Kmart tonight.

Lol, that is the one and only issue I have with the show... It takes several episodes to complete a fighting scene. But on their behave, who else does that? I liked it at the beginning but I love it now that both my boys are so into it that they got me to really love it. FYI...DBZ Kai is a shorter version of Z but a lot of fans say that they prefer the uncut version over Kai.

Yeah, I watched it when I was younger and I was so disappointed that one arc ended on like a three or so episode energy blast struggle, I think it was the end of the Cell story. They just spent a long ass time holding each others' blasts at bay and then eventually Cell just disintegrated. I stopped watching after the Buu stuff. I found Cooler to be way cooler (tee hee) than Frieza, Frieza took like an episode to make some big bomb thing and Cooler did it in like 5 seconds with his dinosaur-crest-head.

Yeah, and I'm going though that with my kids all over again so, Kai will do for now, lol. I think what people (or at least I) love about Frieza is his sarcasm and that making fun of you kinda laugh that just kills me man! He's one of those evil minds that get under your skin.

Obviously Frieza had more time than his older brother to be fleshed out, but Cooler looked a lot better and basically when the message was conveyed that "he's supposed to be better" I took their word for it.

I felt the same way when I first watched it. My brother told me start with the regular Dragoonball saga to get use to the characters. Then I was able to enjoy Dragonball Z but man "the previously on" and "next time on" literally took about 5/8 minutes of a 22 minute show...

Dragonball (not Z) is still on my to-do list... I've got every ep. saved on the hard drive...probably only watched about 5 of them..one of these days...

Kirathis · 10-22-2015, 09:01 PM

Awesome hauls everyone! Ah DBZ. That brings back memories of hours in my college dorm room watching Toonami.

Good god that's a nice haul Raf! I do not have any of the DBZ Figuarts but I do have a couple from Naruto and they are some quality figures. If you do end up opening them, you will not be disappointed with the pose options they offer. Some great stuff.

Thank you very much! Let me tell you, I saw that Naruto SH Figuarts and it looks amazing! I just watched 3 episodes on "adult swim" and it looks good so far. I am hooked on Akame Ga Kill though but it seem no figures are out yet.

The target...I've yet to see, I didn't know about her so thanks. Also, there's one figure who is a variant in gold and yellow for a jla toy line, the gold one is going to arrive this week so I didn't post her pic but the yellow version I did...and the new DCC superwoman from the syndicate of amerika just arrived yesterday after I took the photos.

Do you have the Koto Bish ones of her? I just grabbed the first version of her, non sealed though but eh, I liked that one better then the second version they did of her. Granted doesnt cause triple the amount :P But still prefer that pose.

Ah man she is nice! I read she's more in the 12' scale though...hoping to stay in the 6ish scale.
