This was uploaded for a friend of mine who wanted to see how my collection has grown.
[I plan to re-paint and polish most of these figures]
This is my collection of Dragonball toys, which has grown over the years, beginning back in 1997 sometime. Most of the figurines from the ’90s (Bandai’s original SUPER BATTLE collection_, have disappeared, been given away, thrown away, destroyed, etc. I have only a few remaining from that series; [Buu Era]: Krillin, Kid Trunks, Goten, Vegeta[3in], Trunks(w/ sword).
I suppose I’m allowing the collection to still grow, however I’m not avid about it anymore, nore do I have the money to invest in it.
This all began in 1997, when I first got interested in Dragonball Z. I learned of it from friends, and Cartoon Network’s original airing (Ocean dub), which was airing The Saiyan Saga at the time. Since I did not want to wait for the entire series to be dubbed, I got my hands on many Japanese VHS tapes and VCDs, via eBay. I don’t believe I still have all of the VHS tapes an VCDS, however I do recall most that I bought to be not even C- quality, when they were ‘A’ “guaranteed” by the seller. The VHS tapes were the worst of the two- they were larger in size and amount[291 eps, 30+ tapes maybe], and the quality was usually horrid. At least with the VCDs you could run the episodes on your PC, and often they would come with several Dragonball Z music videos, set to tracks from massively popular bands all over the United States during the ’90s. I managed to finish the series, including the original Dragonball, all films, and Dragonball GT, not to say in any sort of good quality. Eventually I waited for Cartoon Network to run it all, and to my surprise, it turned out splendid.
In this collection, you will find:
