Problem 4: Anyone who asks for the amount of money involved in something like this, I would call a scammer, and I would say no one should give that person a dime. Unlike a Star Wars type scenario where everyone watches it, everyone picks it up, etc., anime has an entrenched problem of piracy do a pirate release like this, and the companies involved would try to shut you down hard. And knowing Toei and Funimation, they definitely would. Problem 3: Officials could crack down on you at any moment. Remember, there were only a handful of TV prints sent out by Toei, and that's what you get when you buy an episode of Dragon Ball on film (assuming you don't get a dupe), so these are pretty much one-of-a-kind items. Problem 2: You would have to track down and purchase 16mm film prints of every episode, which by itself would probably cost several million at least, and you'd almost certainly run into the problem of missing some episodes, or one getting damaged or lost in transit. We're talking 444 episodes of TV here (GT never had film distributed around, so the full 508-long run wouldn't be possible), plus two double-length specials. Problem 1: It would cost more in the millions than the hundred thousands to remaster and scan it all.
