They are region Free

Play quite happily on my Pal PS3

It's the movie collections that for some reason are locked to Region A

Picked up Part 7 the other week as well...



They do look pretty good in HD & the new intro is especially lush...the songs on the other hand for opening & closing suck balls & are just plain horrible

Do they have the original opening & closings at all? I'm such a nerd, if not its still ok. Where did you orders yours from Soundwave?

If you want original openings/endings you'll want the dragon box's.

Still the best way to watch DBZ.

I won't bother posting up photos but for my birthday I got the Alien Anthology and Super 8
They join my measly collection consisting of Tron Legacy, Thor and Scott Pilgrim.

Great collection however small it may be.

I'm not sure actually
I'll have a look when I'm home at lunch time & let you know.

I get mine from a few different Ebay sellers...

Red Tag Market...

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Red-Tag-Market?_rdc=1

I just tend to go with whichever seller is the cheapest at the time & just lately the new releases (pt 6 & 7) can be had for about ?12 + delivery

The early parts are becoming a bit scarce on Blu-Ray now for good prices though.

Those sellers are really good for other Blu's & DVD's as well & I find myself browsing for hours looking at older films I should really buy as well...lots of hard to find Exploitation & 70's Schlock on there

Childhood memories come flooding back with this.

Added bonus that my daughter enjoys watching it with me too.

I recently re-watched this and really enjoyed it. I thought the story is still engaging, even years later. I was chatting to Redstar_Dan about it and he loved the 80s mecha design of Dai-X.

The version I have is in a card sleeve and has several extras like postcards and a poster. Does this version have them too?

I trust the discs still have all the extras like the interview with Gerry Anderson (he didn't make it, but Terrahawks came out at a similar time and he talks about the two shows) and the Making-Of documentaries been retained? I'm guessing it's just a plastic box with the paper extras removed.

Don't watch the Making-Of extras before the end as they give away who dies!

Hand-on-heart, I got quite emotional when I saw the opening credits again!

They were all set to do a second series as it was popular worldwide, but a fire destroyed all the sets and models. Gutted. Surely there's a Dai-X suit that survived somewhere?!

Remember fella you can get them in proper season sets now, the season "part" sets are 13 episodes from what i remember.

Here are the bigger season sets:

and

Compared to the "part" sets:

So if your buying from scratch you might prefer each box containing a whole season, and better value.
