Re: The Lucky Finds bragging thread
Danth, which cards are you referring to as "the good ones?" Personally, I have a soft spot for all of them.danth wrote:How does one tell the difference between them? I saw some DBZ cards at my dollar store and thought of this thread, but I don't know which are the good ones.
The easiest way to tell what you are buying is to see if there is a year listed anywhere on the pack or box. The newer cards say "2014 Dragonball Z Trading Card Game" very prominently, though I'm not sure if there's any indication of the year on the older card packs.

The ones I was collecting were the Funimation re-releases of the actual Japanese cards, which have the original Japanese look of the packs, with Japanese writing on them. I think they had series 1-3, 4 in some rare cases. They also had packs that show the actual cards, prepacked into see through bags (6 per pack or something). I thought all the non-Japanese ones were junk.danth wrote:How does one tell the difference between them?

Oh gosh! I remember that. There was a BGC one, too. Those were for Windows 3.1, right? Or for Windows 95?

I think it's 3.1! I always wanted one and the BGC one back in the day, but they were so expensive! I'm tempted to open it and see if I can get it to load on a DOS prompt or something.

It's been a few years, but I believe I was able to get the Ranma 1/2 screennsaver to load in Windows XP; not sure if it will work in later versions.usamimi wrote:I think it's 3.1!

Re: The Lucky Finds bragging thread
Okay, so I realize that only a few of you on here are into models, however this should be of interest to everyone. I recently scored a plastic model kit set of Leda: Fantastic Adventure of Yohko off YAJ. What is so cool about this kit set is that it's made to look like a VHS box set, and each model is contained in a box made to look like a VHS cassette.
Check out the Tumblr page I made for more pics of this cool packaging. What's extra cool is that it only cost me 2000 yen!

Re: The Lucky Finds bragging thread
Oh cool. So basically one "VHS" is a package of materials for Yohko standing and the other is her riding the vehicle?
