To anyone who has the Tonsen Trunks; is the head/neck swap compatible with the recent Trunks 2.0? I'm thinking on skipping pic and go straight to Tonsen's Bojack (A) version. This way, I could use the 2.0 head if I want that BTTF look, and at the same time utilize the Bojack saiyan head on Armored Trunks, hitting three birds with one stone, or something. I got too many Trunks.

If you call SHF stuff slop for those issues, the same applies to 3P.
>>
>>11150089
I saw some people have this issue but havent noticed it on mine.
>>
>>11150115
I buy both, so I don't really consider either slop. I've gotten official releases that have the QC of a poorly made bootleg and I have also gotten bootlegs that have the QC of a properly made official release, but that doesn't mean I am going to universally dismiss one line because a single release had some minor issues.

My point was more people give Bandai a pass on the same shit that they hyper focus on for third party releases; neither are perfect and both have their good and bad moments.
>>
>>11150131
>I buy both, so I don't really consider either slop
No problem with that?
>My point was more people give Bandai a pass on the same shit that they hyper focus on for third party releases
Well, I made the comment because I saw the opposite. In a vacuum, idc if third party releases have QC issues (unless they're so pervasive they basically ruin the figure), but if you're gonna dog on Bandai for issues, then praising 3P is lame. Same as people dogging on Bandai for "revoltech shoulders" while praising revoltech.

FP Frieza isn’t as good as it could have been. It feels flimsy and the neck gap is hideous. Almost as bad as Namek Vegeta. It really only works as a figure with Buffku. It should have been at least Buffku quality for that price. Maybe bootleg fags are right.
>>
>>11150755
>It feels flimsy
It sounds like Bandai just fucked you over in that part, mine feels fine.
Though the neck does irritate me because it always wants to pop back to place when I try using a more dynamic range.
>>
>>11150755
My FP Frieza feels fine. But the shoulder and neck look hideous. You have to hide the weird gaps. It’s dooable but it’s not good when a lot of neutral poses look bad.

Can we please get 2nd form, and perfect cell (updated). Oh and buu saga is really missing. I’ll be happy with shin, kid buu, and Dabura. Babidi as a pack in accessory is fine.

Got my Tonsenarttoys Buus in, I have to say while I can really appreciate the craftmanship, especially in regards to the headsculpts which are truly on another level beyond what Bandai has put out in recent memory, overall I think these are pretty skippable regardless. They feel like they haven't had the playtesting or durability testing a major company is likely to do with their toys, the arms and legs both fall off on both copies for me. I see that is a common issue, and I suppose is somewhat more forgivable considering the scale of Tonsen than if Bandai put it out, but still, the inevitable Kid Buu from Bandai will probably blow this out of the water in my opinion. The plastic quality is fine but i'd rather have a much more sturdy and higher tolerance toy than this, which looks great, but is very frustrating to handle. Also the pants are cut up in a pretty retarded way, I guess it works fine functionally but doesn't look good

TLDR; i'd give the Tonsen Buu's a 6/10 rating myself, much to left to be desired in the quality department but very pretty toys that will at least look great once you manage a decent pose.

Very solid

>>11150755
I agree to an extent. He's is the best looking Frieza next to his 2nd form but I'm not the biggest fan of how he feels. The neck gap and tramp stamp is unacceptable and his legs feel a little loose. That being said he's really fun to pose with Buffku.

Buffku. Shorter than I would like, wide hips that makes him look boxy if he’s not in a dynamic pose, screaming face is amazing from the front but looks like he has a underbite from the side. Still think it’s an amazing figure.
>>
>>11150911
How tall is he?
>>
>>11150928
He’s about the same height as the rest of the Goku’s. His face sits lower on his neck than the other Goku’s so it makes him look slightly shorter. But he looks larger at the same time because of how buff he is.

If they make him, I wonder if they'll do an Omega Shenron as well. It's funny, because I'm super split on him. On the one hand, he'd be a cool bad guy to have, I guess. On the other hand, he's kinda also lame in his own way.
>>
>>11151458
He's lame? He just spends his screen time beating the shit out of everyone. He also has a solid motivatio. That ties into Dragon Ball as a whole. Him being defeated by some kind of ascended Goku was perfection. I even really like the little movie with his great great great grandson.
>>
>>11151471
nta but he's just the lamest looking out of the main GT antagonists, but idk he IS kind of cool? I can see him working as a figure with the big spines and some sick translucent dragon balls on his chest.
>>
>>11151458
>>11151471
>>11151476
Omega looked kind of plain, but I never really thought he looked bad. The spikes and stuff were kinda cool. Considering Bandai usually does pretty good on the bigger figures in the DB line, I think he'd turn out pretty good, too.
>>
>>11151309
SSJ4 Gogeta in DBS artstyle looks wrong, dude needs a bigger chin

Is there a reason Bandai hasn't revealed much of anything about the Dragon Ball series?
>>
>>11151663
dead line
>>
>>11151663
My guess is they have more daima stuff planned, but the popular theory is bandai is trying to push more of their other shonen stuff since the legal issues between shueisha and CC tokyo began over dragon ball's IP rights
>>
>>11151663
enjoy your daima garbage lmao
>>
>>11151663
Daima figures and CC drama is still happening so they arnt pushing the brand as hard.
>>
>>11151786
Wouldn't it make sense for CC to just sign a deal with Bandai to continue making DB figures? Free money for CC and DB, aside from bugmen, has to be one of Figuarts most profitable lines...so I really can't see Bandai just losing it. I get CC hates Shueisha (or maybe the other way around), but I'm not sure why CC would actively turn down free money from Bandai to keep the license going. (Nor do I think Bandai would just walk out without some form of fight as DBZ is a pretty popular IP.)

Granted, I have almost no understanding of contracts and licensing agreements when an IP changes owners...but Hasbro still kept Star Wars even after the Disney buy out, so I just assume Bandai would do the same with DBZ.

is he worth the 60€ on amazon?
>>
>>11151887
He's great, so yeah.
Has one issue with the neck thing, but otherwise is a primo figure.
>>
>>11151892
What's the neck thing?
>>
>>11151900
His neck's natural position is a bit forward, but it can be pushed back. A lot of the time it will kinda just spring back? But you can move it past that point or in a way where it doesn't spring back. I don't quite get it myself. It's not a major thing, though. His natural neck position isn't really bad, and moving it all the way back creates a bit of a gap anyway.
>>
>>11151798
From what I understand the upper management of CC hates Bandai. TOEI, etc. If they get the rights don't be surpised to see something like Figma Goku.
>>
>>11151913
R-Revoltech Goku, at least?

>>11151913
I think you mean PLAMATEA Goku
>>
>>11151920
>>11151922

>>
DB and Bandai are so intertwined it would be crazy if they split. Not just figuarts but Bandai puts out everything DB related. Prize figures, adverge, grandista, figuarts zero, model kits, banpresto and more. You'd need people to do all of this stuff to hit the same numbers you had with Bandai. Then there's also BoA that fills shelves with their own lines like dragon stars and limit breakers over here. Everything involving the card games is also Bandai.

There are some neat things about it for sure, but the grey plastic makes him look cheap, like a model kit or something.

>>11153439
I always like these kinds of posts because like 90% of third party figures are heavily based on Bandai's work. If not 1:1 the sculpt, then absolutely the engineering.
>>
>>11153753
This. And it's not like Tonsen makes cheaper stuff, it's usually just that they make a character before Bandai does. Though, to be fair, they make solid face sculpts.
>>
>>11153812
Not shitting on them tbf. They fill a niche Bandai fails to or isn't yet filling, and so do pretty well. I still think I prefer Bandai's newer face sculpts when they try (Full Power Frieza, Legendary Super Saiyan Goku, Super Saiyan 4 Goku, etc.), but a lot of third party face sculpts do admittedly heavily mog the 2.0s and 1.0s.
Third party's cool. At worst, they give people something Bandai won't give. At best, they put a boot up Bandai's ass to get something out rather than resting on their laurels (still waiting on that 3.0 Goku tho...).
But it's just funny to see the "OMG BANDAI OWNED THEY'RE PUT TO SHAME!!!" posts for figures that are basically SHF retools rather than 100% custom figs.

True, the accessories ARE sweet. Might grab Bojack Trunks. How's the QC and plastic quality?

I really enjoy Tonsen for making characters/versions we don't have. I don't point at them like they're the gold standard, but I'm getting sick of seeing third parties continuously making mostly gokus and vegetas. I respect kong for making something slightly different, but I'm just not interested in Heroes/Fan Fiction stuff. Demoniacal Fit I mainly buy their stuff for repainting and fodder, they don't release the stuff I genuinely want from them like Kid Trunks, Gotenks Base/SS3 Head set, Buutenks Set, Bandit Yamcha, and Future Gohan.
I really want Third parties to make characters bandai won't make, but people can't get enough goku and vegeta

afaik it's just the long sleeves, longer belt and undershirt on Goten but it's a LOT different if you compare him with say OG DB Goku, and even Daimaku seems to have slightly bigger eyes.

If Bandai loses the license because they're "so trash", what molds and engineering are third parties going to steal to make their figures? :^)

Question for people who got Metal Cooler: how has he held up? Any scratching? Other quality issues? Paint getting screwed by elements or any minuscule amount of dirt?
I've got mine in a box and I'm shit scared of removing it out of fear that the paint job gets ruined with the slightest mistake or even just the passage of time.
>>
>>11154641
He's doing fine for me. If you want to take him out of the box I suggest you wash your hands or wear gloves if you don't want finger prints. For dusting, I use pressured air
>>
>>11154645
How much have you posed him so far?
And I'm thinking of trying to find a way to get as little dust on him as possible.
>>
>>11154651
I pose him like 1-3 times a month since release. If you want minimal dust, I suggest putting him in a glass case/shelf with a door.
>>
>>11154661
I do have a detolf for my figures, but even there, dust accumulates. I guess I'll just have to be dilligent in maintaining it, at least for him.
Thanks for the info. Maybe I don't have to be as much of a scaredy cat.

>>11154641
his legs are super flimsy and there are paint issues. I don't pose him much these days since he's kinda meh to begin with

>This retard doesn't realize 3rd parties use Bandai figures as a blueprint.

>>11154763
It's so funny when people shit on Bandai because 3rd party made "le 3.0 Goku" and then that Goku is basically 90% Super Hero Gohan.
>>
>>11154767
You have it all wrong. SHF lost the technology required to repaint Super Hero Gohan and add a (better than anything that's come before) Goku Head.

They NEEDED a Third Party to redefine the bar by which we judge all future Goku releases because they can't do it themselves.
>>
>>11154835
Based third parties showing Bandai the way...
Putting the mockery aside, I AM actually grateful to them for making stuff like 3.0 Goku (even if I think Bandai could make a way better base Goku head now than them, and honestly, with the improvements made to the "3.0 body", better engineering and articulation too). I had hoped that the Kong and DF versions would push Bandai to hurry it up and give us an official 3.0 Goku release, but sadly no dice so far. Gone are the days where Bandai would hurriedly sweep DF's legs out from under them with the Ginyu Force. Pity.
But yeah, this narrative that 3p is "BTFOING" Bandai because they can't make toys is super funny. There's a reason 3p DBZ figures are basically emulating SHFiguarts, and aren't their own full 100% custom-made thing.
>>
>>11154839
I really, really, really want a 3.0 Goku who has a compatible neck peg for the Legendary Super Saiyan Goku.
Another part of me fears having to collect another generation of newer, more accurate face and hair sculpts for every form. And them not being made available for years, if ever.
:D
>>
>>11154853
I wish Bandai used a compatible neckjoint for fucking everything, but they keep changing the size of it.
>>
>>11154856
Yeah, it's pretty bad. But even if they made 2.0 heads compatible with 3.0 bodies, my autism would still demand to get 3.0 updated versions of every form.
And since we just now, after over a decade, got a SS2, and it was an exclusive, that doesn't bode well.

>Third party

Right, bootlegs
>>
>>11154863
Hard to call them bootlegs since they don't BOOTLEG existing figures. A bootleg would have to be a 1:1 non-licensed version of, say, SROE Goku.
Third parties skirt the line by quite clearly checking Bandai's homework, but not literally yoinking the molds.
A good way to establish if it's a bootleg or a third party figure is this:
What Bandai figure is the Tonsen Kid Buu bootlegging?
>>
>>11154867
Cool, bootlegs
>>
>>11154874
Bootlegs of?
>>
Speaking of bootlegs I know they're gatekeeping their 3d figure scan models to their chinese group chats, hoping one day someone releases them publicly
>>
>>11154863
>>11154867
you gonna cry?
>>
>>11154867
Are you kidding? At minimum, like 3/4 the figures are just repaints of Gokus, Vegetas, and Trunks. Kid Buu is just the top half of Super Buu scaled down. Which is why the top half looks really good, but the bottom half/legs--the parts that are newly sculpted--look like shit.
>>
Anyone have both the demoniacal fit and official rehash super saiyan vegeta? Which one do you prefer?

I'm tempted to pick up the DF, as the grey armor instead of white on the official is really starting to bug me. I also know that the DF has better articulation and scale because they used the smaller majin vegeta legs for him. But not many sellers have him in stock anymore, so he's become kind of pricey which makes me think twice.
>>
>>11154923
>are just repaints of Gokus, Vegetas, and Trunks.
what official releases are they bootlegging?
there needs to be an official release for something to be a bootleg
>>
>>11154863
Why are you quoting me? I'm talking about official.
>>
>>11154923
The only companies still pumping out kockoff Bandai sculpt Goku and Vegeta repaints are Demoniacal Fit and Black Hole toys. Tonsen's shit is entirely uniquely sculpted, he didn't even lift superficial shit like Trunk's hair sculpt or boots, and Kid Buu's torso isn't even close to Super Buu's upper torso, it uses 3.0 style engineering while Bandai's Super Buu uses the same joint setup as Piccolo, or 2nd Form Frieza, for example. Beast Deities is doing their own shit too, they even BEAT bandai to getting a 3.0 Vegeta out on the market.

Like, it came in the proper packaging and everything, ordered it off of Amazon under a listing for the proper figure from the tamashi page

That arm popped off while I was trying to pose one of the legs. How does that even happen?
The leg popped off because I was trying to make it do a spread
The other leg won't spread unless I kick it forward first, because it gets caught on the waist plastic otherwise
That fucking waistband piece is blocking his ab crunch
The painting on the feet, the fucking unclipped plastic
What the fuck man

That's me. If the Bardock isn't real, I wouldn't mind nearly as much as with this Goku. I think it's just my camera quality and lighting setup for these pictures. I'm working off of... Fuck, what model was it? An iPhone 12 for my pictures? It doesn't look Oily in person. Also, unlike what I replied to below, his packaging is ACTUALLY accurate to the real thing with all the proper branding on it.
>>11155059
Yeah, after double-checking what the real packaging looked like I was definitely bootlegged.
Funny enough, whoever made the bootleg clearly changed the background color, which is oddly hilarious to me.
Honestly I feel strangely unbothered, just mildly annoyed about it.
It sucks, but at least I got something I can just put into one pose, sit in my collection, and never touch again.
Still a beginner to the hobby and everything, so maybe it's just naïveté and low standards.

Wow, when you look at this picture closely you can see where the pieces were cut from their sprue or whatever especially on the legs, and the paint job on the boots looks horrible. Plus not the joint in his foot is orange when the boot is blue. Not blaming you for getting tricked but that's a pretty bad knockoff.

God i wish they did the dragon ball tails the same way they do them in the godzilla figures
>>
>>11155172
Said the same thing when I got my Frieza.
I can understand that it wouldn't look perfect for some figures due to the segmentation looking weird, but first, second, and third form Frieza's tails are already naturally segmented. Same for Meta Cooler.
Maybe having that many ball-joints on figures at this scale has some problems that the Godzilla figures don't have. I'd imagine they'd be a lot more fragile, since Godzilla figures have those giant, meaty tails while most DB characters with tails aren't.
>>
>>11155172
>>11155186
I feel like if they did another 4th form Frieza, they'd do a wire tail.
>>
>>11155172
Absolutely not. Godzilla is way more heavily textured so the segments are hidden better. Characters with tails in DB sre way to clean simple to make it work. Static tails are out best bet.
>>
>>11155397
It sure would be better than the shit we get. The tails in this line looks fucking terrible

Iirc, you are correct. He releases next month, so we should start seeing some release pictures of him within the next few weeks though.

I hope we get some new reveals soon; aside from Pan, Older Style battle clothes Vegeta, and the restoration chamber, 2025 is already starting to look lighter than the past few years have been for P-Bandai releases.

Only real issue I have with him is this right wing. It pops off if you breathe on it wrong. Is there any innate problems that would be caused by just gluing that piece in? Because it's not like that peg does anything but hold it in place. It doesn't seem to be a problem with the other wing at all.
I also had a slight problem with how stiff the left leg's hip joint was when I tried to get him into a sitting position, leg popped out when I tried to stand him back up, but otherwise, figure seems plenty fine. Love that engineering on the shoulders.

Well, Cold will still be a bit small, but it's nice to see that they overcame the "Broly limit" they seemed to be working with for so long. King Cold should be as tall as Broly's hair to the top of his head. Still a little bit small but it should be close enough.

After looking at the face piece directly, I realized that the reason I didn't see the seam was the angle.
It's only really visible from a low angle, from dead-on or slightly above it's almost unnoticeable unless you're actively looking for it. In fact, you can't see it in the picture but the seam actually eventually goes at a 90 degree angle downward at his cheek
Honestly, I don't have so much problem with the feet as with the toes specifically. They're just kind of... There. They barely touch the ground, they just stick straight out. That, and the mild inconvenience that is that the nails are only colored from the top but not the bottom where they stick out
The tail does frustrate me though. I've likewise been spoiled, but mainly because my first exposure to Bandai's figures were SHMA Godzillas, and regardless of the infamous QC issues with those, their tails are pretty universally immaculate.

>>11157087
Next to all of these old figures first form Cell doesn't really stand out as something that was made in more recent years.

>>11157104
Buffku is a fucking great figure and no amount of autistic screeching about his miscolored chest plate will convince me otherwise.
>>
>>11156261
holy look at those tits
>>
>>11157242
He is. The chest thing isn't even an issue besides on camera. And if you're such a big shot photography chad, you should be able to fix that in photoshop in .2 sec.
You're only screwed if you do stop motion, lol.

That's truth. Cope would be me saying Kefla is a great release.
>>
>>11157274
Yeah you are coping. Like unironically. Look up the definition if you got doubts.
>>
>>11157274
Don't you fucking remind me of Kefla. I still loathe how heavy they fucked that up.
>>11157283
Nah, not really. He's right. Legendary SS Goku is peak.
>>
>>11157284
Whatever helps you cope bro. I dob't buy toys with obvious fault so I don't have to cope about it.
>>
>>11157285
Well, I enjoy good toys, so there's no reason for me to cope with anything to begin with. :)
>>
>>11157316
Personally, I'd prefer my gokus to not have a discolored chest but thats just my opinion.

Imagine spending dozens of thousands dollars for molds for this crap. Does SHF know good female figs attract coomers? Those guys have a lot of cash in their sticky hands.

>>11157391
thats not bad but shf is just not made for coom due to how uninterchangable and uncustomizable the whole line is. It will always look shit no matter how hard you try and then the seamlines and paint issues...it's as if they try making it as unsexxy as possible. Like there are modelkits that look better and have less seamlines...
>>
>>11157377
Idk what they were thinking with Keffy. Her entire lower body situation was whack. Weird sculpt that gave her lumbar issues, 1.0 hips without the drop down so it was the worst of all worlds.
So fascinating.
>>
>>11157358
Doesn't cause any troubles for me because I don't see it.

Their mistake with Kefla was actually that they made the wrong form. They made a pretty accurate to model SS1 Kefla but what people usually think of is the buff SS2. The figuarts is specifically called "Super Saiyan Kefla" while FIghterZ just calls her Kefla. Now the weird part on top that adds even more confusion, they gave her the effect part she does while she's in SS2 at the end. So in theory there can be a second figure that's actually SS2 one day.
>>
>>11157450
yeah nah the lower body was also complete trash
>>
>>11157450
>>11157459
In my opinion the head sculpt was utter wank and the main problem, it was ugly and flat as shit. Even the best body, fucking v.4 marvel of engineering wouln't save a figure with such a face. Who the fuck they hire to 3D model? This is kid learning how to Blender level of craft.

I feel the opposite, the head I didn't mind but the body needed to be better. The face was basically a one to one of this shot and you could tell they put in the effort to match up the hair spikes to the model sheet. The head was big but if the body was bigger it could've evened out.
>>
>>11157534
the head was a bit big but it wasn't really bad
the upper body wasn't great but passable
everything below that? Just end it.
>>
>>11157450
>Now the weird part on top that adds even more confusion, they gave her the effect part she does while she's in SS2 at the end
She was only included because she was a FighterZ rep, so it makes sense they would throw in the effect parts for her special move in that game.

My tin foil hat theory is they knew she wouldn't be a hot seller, so they phoned her in and rushed her out to hopefully coast off Super and FighterZ hype. (Janemba, Kid Buu, and SS4 Gogeta are the only characters we are currently missing from that game, but they can release those any time and they will print money.)

Regardless of the above, she is easily in my top five of worst releases this line has ever seen and like 90% of that list is the earliest 1.0s...so it is impressive how underwhelming and bad she ended up being.
>>
>>11157555
I thought she won a contest?
>>
>>11157555
>She was only included because she was a FighterZ rep, so it makes sense they would throw in the effect parts for her special move in that game
With that in mind they definitely should've just did a buff SS2 from the go to at least be accurate to the special move then.
>>
>>11157564
Figuarts rigged that shit. You might be able to convince me she was more popular than Janemba at the time, but trying to tell me she won organically over SS4 Gogeta and Kid Buu are both very hard sells.
>>
>>11157593
then they rigged it
... only to deliver a subpar figure
>>
>>11157593
I doubt they rigged it. Like the anniversary vote for a rerelease where the Blue Vegeta won, whoever wins gets it. But here's a real theory, Kid Buu and SS4 Gogeta were 2nd and 3rd and they said they were going to reveal later. But hey ended up going "fuck it we'll make these way later, hopefully they forgot about the vote."
>>
>>11157593
>>11157607
People might've voted for Kefla because they figured SS4 Gogeta and Kid Buu would end up happening anyway.
I mean... they're pretty obvious choices.
>>
>>11157616
I voted Kefla for that reason and I thought they'd give her a better butt sculpt.
>>
>>11157616
Yea exactly like a now or never situation. Few threads ago someone asked what 5 figures you'd want before the line dies and spending it on a Goku or Vegeta would be a "waste" cause 3p will keep making them. Similar logic.
>>
>>11157627
Yeah, I was also let down by her.
>>11157630
I voted Kefla for that reason, and.. well, aren't I the fool. Still no Kid Buu or SS4 Gogeta.
>>
>>11157607
>hopefully they forgot about the vote
Just like the figma poll...
They eventually made everyone in the top 10 except Kotomine.
They made the entire cast of Love Live, who were honorable mentions, over him. Fuck's sake.

android 16 needs a 2.0 figure badly. he’s WAY too small.
>>
>>11157667
17 and 18 look pretty good atleast. They could probably use a reissue.
>>
>>11157667
Many of the big guys are too small in this line
>>
>>11157767
They need some new heads if they're gonna use the bodies again. They both have that old figuarts face look even on the EE versions. 18's head is also bigger.
>>
>>11157838
Guess that depends on how they do them. Could see a new release with the EE colors and less accessories like Goku Black. They'd have new faces but probably wouldn't have the extra hair piece.
>>
>>11149731
I'm still disappointed they fucked King Cold by packaging him with a big hunk of plastic to slam the price up by $50. He was the only fig I'd been looking forward to and now I'm not bothering.
>>
>>11157906
I make to much money to care about such things. Include as much plastic as possible i say.
>>
>>11157616
Lol all these years and still no kid Buu/SSJ4 Gogeta.

They said they were going to reveal the runner ups like 2 March's ago.

I just have good taste. Kefla looks like a stickman, she even have a oversize head.
DB has lots of good female designs and she isn't one of them

>>11158354
>almost like people discussed the problems with her
Yeah, the problem is that she's ugly in the show so the figure looks ugly too. Unless you tell me she has other problem like legs that pop off or some shit like that
>>
So since some anons have had Kid Buu for a few days now, is he worth $60 shipped? He's one of my top 5 biggest wants from this line and who knows when/if Bandai will get back to the Buu Saga, but the QC issues I've been hearing about put me off a bit. Have never used shock oil and have heard it mentioned several times in reviews for this figure.
>>
>>11158386
>Yeah, the problem is
that the lower half was completely garbage, using a 1.0 setup without drop-down hips which meant they had all of the cons of 1.0 hips and none of the pros and moving the legs up meant scuffing the paint and causing it to grind up against each other
and also the lower body sculpt was just strange, like some amateur with no grasp on anatomy took over when they got to the waist and below
>>
>>11158387
>So since some anons have had Kid Buu for a few days now, is he worth $60 shipped?
I think so, but he for sure has his issues:
>Version A (gold detailing) has very tight shoulders, the arms pop off more than I would like, and the hands are an absolute bitch to swap
>Version B (yellow detailing) doesn't have any of the shoulder issues A has, but has much looser legs that make posing a bit harder
>aesthetically, both look fantastic and are on par with standard Figuarts release.
>jank factor is on par with some of the worst recent Figuarts releases (like the recent Trunks)
>that being said, both come with a solid amount of hands/heads/and extras, so if you can get past the weirdness it is a really fun and expressive figure

They changed the neck slightly on the reissue Buffku. Corrected the chest discoloration and made his facial features pop more with slightly darker colors.

Why do you guys continue to defend Bandai's beta releases?
>>
>>11159410
>Corrected the chest discoloration
Not really. The difference is minimal if at all there.
