Updated checklist?
dead line
Remember when people thought King Cold would be the same height as Frieza 2?
Looks really good
>>11215598Yeah, it's cool that he's a big dude.I do think he's pretty mediocre as a whole, though. Overpriced, fairly cheap looking. Reuses all the parts that made 2nd form Frieza great and then undercuts them with worse engineering and sculpting where they can't mooch off 2nd form Frieza. So it's basically just a bigger and worse version with an outrageous price tag.Still, it's cool to have a figure of a character that I really never expected to get one, and I kinda want him to have the trio of tall smug lizards to pose together.
>>11215614It's cool, he doesn't have to do anything but stand around and die anticlimactically.
>>11215598I was one of those people, forgive me for doubting you, Bandai-sama.Anyways, it fucking sucks, everyone left and right gets their figs but shops I ordered from are sleeping or smth. No figs for me I guess, but I'm new to this. I heard Europe gets their stuff rather late. I still haven't recieved Frieza.>>11215605Hope baby Trunks head can fit his adult body.
>>11215631That's kinda true, lol.
>>11215598Doe she have 3rd form Freeza shoulder pads?
>>11215715I think he has like the old saiyan shoulderpads we're used to. But don't quote me on that.
>>11215723God I love Final Form Cooler so much.
>>11215724His daddy is proud
>>11215723is wondering why his family are a bunch of jobbers
>>11215723I hope I can pick King Cold up later. I don't really have the opportunity right now, but I got 2nd form Frieza and Final Form Cooler and it would be a shame if I didn't get daddy dearest.
Didn't realize Goku and Gohan ended on the 23rd. Does the NY store still have them or will I have to rely on BBTS?
>>11215755
>>11215508
>>11215772Frost?
>>11215772cool display chris-chan
>>11215776
>>11215787Not my pic, looks like a custom with final form Frieza as the base.
>>11215723I was going to make a pic like that once I get him >>11215763Same, good luck with that anon
>>11215605>metallic ss hairMan, there's always a catch with these things.
>>11215772whats the frieza with the cyborg components added to him called? on the bottom right
>>11215837Mecha Frieza?
Does Super Buu still hold up 5 years later? Do you still consider him one of the best figures in the line?
>rumor has it tonsen is making GotenksOne step closer. I will accept a Tonsen attempt of the iconic fan favorite dynamic duo.
>>11215972I like him so much I bought a 2nd one last year because I saw it loose for $40
>>11215972I would say he got surpassed by others, but he still easily holds his own. He's no 1.0 Final Form Frieza or Perfect Cell. Amazing figure at the time, great now.Also the black magic they did with his head range will always be satisfying.
What is the consensus on this guy? I like the esthetics but articulation seems to be mid.
>>11216008Most people think his legs are too short and small compared to the rest.I think he's also mostly a completionist acquisition. Not something that would be somebody's grail.
>>11216008Have regular zarbon and even if his legs were fixed I still wouldnt buy him. Make frieza 2.0 wtf are you doing bandai
>>11216018>Make frieza 2.0Hell ya.
>>11216008Don't need Zarbon represented twice in a Frieza force display. Everyone besides Frieza's forms is there once and having 2 Zarbons kinda throws it off to me personally.
>>11216008I like Zarbon so of course I want this form too, I'll wait to get him to see if the articulation is good
>>11216008pretty unnecessary figure. i wish they’d stop milking namek and move on to buu saga or at least more cell saga / GT / movie villains.
>>11216156I mean after King Cold, what else is there to do for Cell Saga other than Semi-Perfect Cell, and Perfect Cell?
>>11215776Thank you, checklist-sama
>>11216184new androidsKING KAI please
>>11216018>>11216020Can someone explain this to me like I'm blind (because apparently I am)I see a huge amount of posts saying final form Frieza is extremely outdated and begging for a 2.0, but I just don't see the issue with it. Sure, it doesn't look as good as any of the newer released forms, but I still think it's a perfectly passable figure, unlike Perfect Cell which I don't even think looked all that good back when it was released, let alone now.
>>11216200I don't get the point of this post.You acknowledge it's outdated compared to its other counterparts, but you just don't agree that it's outdated enough. That's not a lack of understanding, it's just a fundamental disagreement in opinion.Fact of the matter is that a 12+ year or so figure being the only option of the most iconic form of one of the most iconic DB villains is silly when we're cranking out shit like Monster Zarbon and probably soon Nail. Especially when every other form of Frieza has a modern figure.Both Perfect Cell and Final Form Frieza need an update.
>>11216184USSJ Trunks. Armour Gohan/Goku. Jacket Goku. If you're including Trunks/Android saga as part of Cell saga, then Yardrat Goku, Badman Vegeta, Driving school Goku/Piccolo, Future Gohan, Young Future Trunks, new 17/18. Throw in fluffy hair Bulma too.
>>11216200All 1.0 have aged, even Frieza. He's the best of the old bunch, but he's still old and Bandai can do better nowadays in terms of engineering and likeness. You just need to look at Full Power and Mecha Frieza for that. None of the existing Final Form Friezas have the same finish as the other forms either. When do you think we need a new Final Form Frieza, then? When will you consider him a deprecated enough release to warrant a renewal? I remember when people said Piccolo didn't really need a 2.0 that much because he still held up well for a 1.0.
>>11216184Semi Perfect CellCell JrSuper Saiyan Grade 3 TrunksSaiyan Armor GokuYardrat GokuSaiyan Armor GohanFuture GohanTeen Trunks2.0s of 16, 17, 18, and Perfect CellBadman Vegeta and Driving Clothes Goku/Piccolo for the memes
>>11216214>but you just don't agree that it's outdated enough>>11216228>When do you think we need a new Final Form Frieza, then? When will you consider him a deprecated enough release to warrant a renewal?It's not that I don't think he needs a 2.0 at all, it's just that this figure in particular seems to be requested far more often than figures that have held up worse, such as the androids, Ultimate Gohan, Vegito, Beerus, and Whis. I just feel like the vocal demand for it is much louder than these other figures despite it still holding up quite well relatively. Just curious if there are some major flaws that I'm overlooking or something.
>>11216233they could get away with a Super Vegeta that was buffer and a white boots SSJ Vegeta
>>11216239>it's just that this figure in particular seems to be requested far more often than figures that have held up worse, such as the androids, Ultimate Gohan, Vegito, Beerus, and Whis.I want all of those. Well, maybe not the Androids. I just don't care for them that much, personally.>I just feel like the vocal demand for it is much louder than these other figures One of the main three Z villains in his main form. Just as desired as Kid Buu and Perfect Cell 2.0 are.>despite it still holding up quite well relatively.This just doesn't mean a lot when relatively still puts it far below all 2.0s except outright duds.>Just curious if there are some major flaws that I'm overlooking or something.It's outdated. The engineering is old, the likeness is considerably lower than basically all post-2020 DB figuarts, it doesn't feel all that good or fun to handle despite the fact that, as a small skinny dude, he should be perfect for fucking around with.But ultimately it boils down to: he is old. He's from 2012 and it shows. We have a new Cui, so obviously people would clamor for a new rendition of Final Form Frieza."He is passable for his age" is not enough for Perfect Cell, and it isn't good enough for Final Form Frieza. Those are two characters that should have the best figures, if anything.
Getting back into the hobby after a few years and missed the boat on Tonsen Trunks. Is the DF version going to be a total shitshow or can they make a decent bootleg of a third-party.
>>11216228It's funny you mention Piccolo because I think Piccolo could still be done better too, but there's a lot of things I'd prioritise over another one.
I wish DF would release their 3.0 UI Goku, because I doubt Bandai will make a new UI Goku anytime soon if ever.
>>11216200picture the mecha frieza without the robot parts and compare it to the regular frieza we've got. night and day
>>11216256Also Full Power Frieza's articulation scheme and sculpt detail (just not as buff)
>>11216008I like Zarbon but his bottom half looks so weird, not so sure about this one yet. >>11216184Can they milk Namek a bit more by reissuing the Ginyu Force. I wouldn't be mad at base Cooler and Salza either
>>11216261to be fair, base cooler isn't namek but movie stuffand yeah i want a base cooler too
>>11216256The regular final form Frieza isn't supposed to be as buff as mecha Frieza anyway. The better chest sculpt on mecha Frieza is really the only directly comparable part.
>>11216268For me, it's the purple parts. It feels weird that of all Frieza and Frieza adjacent figures, final form is the only one with metalic paint in the purple instead of them just being shiny
>>11216256god anyone can look at that and see the final form frieza needs an update
>>11216261One of these years the Ginyu Force will be our EEs and they'll be covered in this disgusting shiny metallic paint they put on all their recolors.
>>11215605Is the jacket a cast-off piece?Also, head compatible with recent 2.0 Trunks?
>>11216246I like df. The heads may not be as good as tonsens, but I also missed out so will be getting this
>>11216296We can go further.>Candy skin
>>11216246DF nowadays is usually just copying tamashii/3rd party with hit or miss QC, this is pretty much just tamashii's trunks without a jacket so if you want a tonsen trunks look for the Bojack movie variant that will release soon.
Late to the party but this is such an upgrade from the Premium Colour Trunks I still have, the sheath strap is a bitch though
>>11216477It's a great figure. Just wish he had more face plates.
>>11216200Besides updated facial expressions, the entire lower half of the figure looks off. The 1.0 diapers was one of the biggest complaints of those figures, though Frieza is not the worst example of those.Also they've come along way as far as muscle definition goes. The detail on 1.0's is much softer.I was content with the FF Frieza reissue but I've been waiting for a new sculpt so I can finally have a Golden Frieza.
>>11216479Yep, especially for his base head.Probably my biggest gripe is how they don't equally share faces when they do multiple heads.>>11216008>What is the consensus on this guy? I like the esthetics but articulation seems to be mid.He seems to have all the articulation he needs but his footprint is pretty small so idk how well he'll balance. guess he can lean on his cape if need be.Great expressions too
>>11216256Nice Anime Heroes Frieza you got there on the right.
>backorder came through after agesYeah, fuck that aftermarket price!
>>11216289Freeza could be posed better. His long tail helps alot with dynamic posing. I actually have alot of fun with him. Just gotta be careful not to get problems paint on his abs from his jewel thing.
Cheelai…
>>11216487>the entire lower half of the figure looks off. The 1.0 diapers was one of the biggest complaints of those figuresYou're not wrong, but it's still something Bandai hit or miss with. The hips/thighs on that very Trunks easily look worse than that Frieza's, though I don't think it's a dealbreaker in either case.
>>11216647I still want her
>>11216008FUCKING LAME, nobodies were fun here and there but god damn the line has really just been Goku Vegeta and every single Namek nobody. They could've given us yet another complete set of Namek balls.
>>11215766Anyone?
>Hobby Genki e-mail>told me King Cold was bigger than they thought>have to change my shipping from DHL to FedEx>they'll cover half and I have to pay the rest>like 3000 yenI paid it, but I wish I could have told them that I don't want to use FedEx? Of all the couriers, FedEx is usually the worst for me.
>>11216008Why do they give us so many expensive version of one-off characters before a good 3.0 vegeta?
>>11216729What's it like being 5'6 irl, anon?
>>112167325’8, thank you
>>11216722BBTS doesn't have it and I *think* the NY store may only have the recent Vegito SSB. eBay/aftermarket may be your best (read: only) option at this point.
>>11216567I've got their space pod as well, but never built the figs they come with.Time Machine's shipping rape though, so just keeping an eye on that locally.
not sure if it's a me issue but chiming in on the final form frieza 1.0 discussion a bit: the heads on mine are weird. they feel like they never quite connect fully and are tenuously held on there, able to slip off at the slightest movement. it doesn't feel nearly as secure as most current figuarts. almost like it's a kitbashed figure
>>11216764
>>11216520
>>11216852I am confused. I don't see anything worth uohing about in that post.
>>11216882
Can they just announce the rest of the Daima, GT and Namek crap already? I would like to know when to start paying attention to this line again.
>>11216921Nail may be coming
>>11216938wow i'm soooo stokedwooooow no this is what i really wanted for yearsalmost as much as gomah
>>11216946Who do you want? personally i really want Yakon. He isn't a popular character but i think he would make for a very fun toy
>>11216976World Tournament Announcer. Old or young version doesnt matter to me
>>11216706My Beerus wants a wife lol
>>11216981Since his only accessory would be the mic, might as well do DB ver + DBZ heads. He'd be PBandai anyways.
>>11216976Just waiting for 2.0 perfect cell tbdesu
>>11217006Based Wife of Destruction enjoyer.
>>11216938I don't really care too much about Nail, but if they give him fun faces and cool stuff maybe I'll get him because I need someone to bully and to make company to King Piccolo and my future lord Slug
>>11217101yeet the baby
>>11216899I would get this fig if it wasn't so out of scale.
>>11217101Why the FUCK would he ruin this with metallic hair?
>>11217124??
>>11216938I want Nail, price depending.
>>11217165$85 P-Bandai exclusive with removable cape and replaceable severed arm accessory
>>11217186>capeor whatever this is. robe/jacket w/e
>>11217187T-shirt
>>11217124>>11217140I'd say it is the only kid figure before GT Goku that was to scale. You should get it
>>11217140>post with other characters out of scale what did he mean with that
kinda want that limited vegeto and i don't even like the character that much it's hard to choose especially when you're new i want em all
>>11217423Literally me I only started collecting at the beginning of the month and I'm trying not to bankrupt myself. I'd say definitely focus on P Bandai releases especially the more niche ones. I'm already priced out of 2nd form Frieza and Final Form Cooler so next month I'm gonna try and snag Mecha Freiza, Metal Cooler and Turles before they just keep going up
Does the EE Vegito have translucent hair or metallic? I've seen people claiming both.
>>11217375I'm sorry you think she's out of scale with your underscaled toys.
>>11215972>>11215996I bought a 2nd one too. (only figure I've done that for other than the $35 dollar SS Vegeta that came out last year). If not the best figure in the line, he is in everyones top 5. looking at Figuarts recent releases I dont see them outdoing that Super Buu either with how their recent figures are going.>>11216200I'm pretty sure it's because they are doing literally every Frieza form, and when you have them all lined up, its a bit silly for his most "standard" appearence to be the most outdated. I'm right there with you though. I'll get the updated one when they come out with it, but theres literally 50 things I'd rather have them do. Perfect Cells 1.0 looking like COMPLETE shit and not having a modern figure is way more homo. when i look at my collection of like 50+ figures(pretty much 90% Z) and there's not a fucking Cell in there its just like wtf is going on. >>11216239>It's not that I don't think he needs a 2.0 at all, it's just that this figure in particular seems to be requested far more often than figures that have held up worse, such as the androids, Ultimate Gohan, Vegito, Beerus, and Whis. Beerus, and Whis are IMO the crowns of the 1.0s. Beerus especially is awesome, and Whis does what you want him for. I'd probably put Frieza behind them. I think Z Broly is a figure that I see people say "holds up fine", but when I look at it, it just looks like complete shit compared to Full Power Broly for example. And apparantly its a loose mess too. Thats another figure that needs a fucking update way more than Frieza.
kong Goku
>>11217423I'm also new but have the opposite problem. The majority of characters I want either have bad figures, and I'm not interested in buying a subpar figure just to tick a character box, or no figure at all. So I'd like to buy more, but I just have to sit here waiting for characters I like to get a figure that actually does them justice.
And Square K's SSJ3 Gotenks kit.
LOL. Someone trying to sell this off as "Tonsen Arttoy Shf Dragon Ball Future Trunks Set B".
>>11217620Those hips do not lie
>>11217606This looks like shit, particularly the hair and chest.
Speaking of Trunks, I'm hoping we get some version of this in toy form. Gohan too.
>>11217705Oh god, sideburns
>>11217375She obviously has to scale with nappa or else is trash.
>>11217595yeah cell getting snubbed for so long is kinda bizarre. a standard release for perfect form and 2nd form P bandai is definitely happening but it's just a matter of when? OG 17/18 being event exclusive was beyond retarded too idk why they're handling the sagas from that era this way
>>11217291Hkw many sleeveless, open, knee-length T-shirts do you know? Shit's a vest or a cardigan.
>>11217606>oily looking hair>base face is a different color from body>absolute trash tier SS hair and faceWhy does this thing even exist? It makes some of Bandai's worst releases look passable.
>>11217773people are desperate for 3.0 goku stuff and that's basically why
>>11217619Good kit, I'm tempted but that Gotenks body is so shit. Hope someone makes a new Gotenks.
>>11216357In case anyone wondering; yes, the jacket is fully cast-off.>https://www.instagram.com/tonsenarttoys/p/DBvM0RiT3pP/?img_index=1
>>11217423I'm getting it because I joined these threads the very day the original P-Bandai Bluegito closed pre-orders. Took forever to finally find a Base Zamasu at a reasonable price, and now I don't need to go to scalpers for this.
I just can't bring myself to order a metallic Bluegito.I'll just wait for a 3.0 Vegito someday never. It's too late to pay out the ass for 2.0s. Especially ones with a weird finish that can be found nowhere else in my collection.
>>11218060>someday neverOCToys is doing a bunch of 3.0 Vegito figures soon so you wont have to wait very long
>>11216184yardrat gokusuper vegetasuper trunkscell jrvest android 18
How do you Anons have Goku and FpF posed? Post some pics so I can steal your ideas.Current setup, but takes too much space.
I'm mindfucked by Bandai and the bootleggers super switching saiyan hair between matte and metallic. Do most collectors just mix them all together? Is there a lore reason we can create?
>>11218237I think they should all be matte and only con exclusives should be metallic/translucent personally.
>>11218240Fully agreed.
>>11218204Frieza is cutting a pizza with his kienzan while Goku is waiting with a serious face
>>11218237All regular SS forms should be matte with shading. God and Blue should be metallic.
I've never used Aliexpress before but I absolutely need this new Tonsen Bojack Trunks. Does anyone have any tips/recommendations for using it?
>>11218282For aliexpress some shops are hit and miss but the ones I regularly use are "figure model store store" "figures collector store" and "modle hobby store", just trust your gut instinct and youll be fine because the scams are really obvious, think something like vegito blue figure for 20$
>>11218237>Is there a lore reason we can create?Metalic is just Ki charging/aura power up
>>11218282Use paypal
>>11218282check review first, most of the sellers pick stuff from others, the best time to buy usually is when the site do sales
>>11218304Power up (left) looks more banana yellow than metallic.
>>11217985Judging from those pics, his SS hair looks more pearl finish like the recent Infinite Latent Armor Trunks.
>>11218304I think metallic is for ssj2 and fluffy is ssj1
>We will continue to explore thisfascinating character!Demoniacal Fit - The coming one -Top Gun- will include three different types interchangeable hair, two sets of interchangeable faces, 7 pairs of interchangeable hands, and aura effect, etc.And more importantly, our product will continue to be sold at a more reasonable and affordable price, as always.
>>11218396Demonical Fit is shameless
>>11218260Kek, that's a good one. I just settled on this, some tweaks needed here and there, but it's compact. I would love a pair of hands cast together like this, but it suffices as is I suppose.
>>11218403I have a bunch of figures posed together like this with fingers interlocked and staring into each other's eyes, but they're all girls who are either canon lesbians or who I headcanon as lesbians. Just saiyan.
>>11218405Just as Goku and Frieza like to do.
>>11216252I think Super Hero Piccolo is pretty good overall, but a more classic looking Piccolo with less annoying shoulders and better ankles would be nice. Preferably four-fingered with manga colors, but I know we'll never get manga accurate hands. The issue is that it's harder for Bandai to bullshit reasons for new Piccolos and drum up demand. We might get another Piccolo out of Daima, but I know that wouldn't be ideal for most people.
>>11218304Pale yellow is the best SSJ color and should be the standard for all first releases. Give us uniformity.
>>11218435>Give us uniformityThis is my main gripe. I wish one of the 3rd party companies would just sell repaints of the existing heads with different finishes so autismos such as myself can choose which style they like best and make them all match.
>>11218396>>11218396DemonicalFit are fucking trash, before they do something completely different they copy Tonsen and put out a worse version of it. They could be finishing their 3.0 SS Goku or making any other character, but no gotta steal from other 3rd parties.
>>11218431We need a younger piccolo. Sharper shoulder pads, rounded neck line, God tier faces like the Goku sdcc exclusives.
To anyone who has the Tonsen Trunks Variant B; what is the difference/purpose between the two SS front bangs?
>>11218489Just to add variety as Trunks' hair changes a lot.
>>11218489>>11218496
>>11218634god that hair paint looks bad
>>11218638Probably a lightning issue on my part, i personally find it OK in person
DF really going to make everything that isnt future gohan
>>11218659>>11218396shit you guys already found it, my bad
>>11218659future gohan is shit
>>11218634So... left is post-Cell BttF style, while right is Android arc style dynamic hair from the official SHF Trunks 2.0? Weird that they included the right one.
>>11218396>And more importantly, our product will continue to be sold at a more reasonable and affordable price, as always.This is funny he's just saying we''re gonna sell cheaper than the other guys so buy from us. And to be fair his stuff is more widely available.
>>11217454Metallic. A video review i saw said he was disappointed that it wasnt transparent.
what led to the recent explosion in Trunks figuarts
>>11218786Everyone stealing from eachother.
>>11218786Chink manufacturers saw tonsens trunks and wanted to ride the hypewave, they do the same thing with unreleased SH Figuarts stuff, notice how everyone was making Vegito headsculpts before we knew tamashii would do a new Bluegito rerelease? sure hes popular but 3 of them doing headkits at the same time randomly is ridiculous.
>>11218786>Trunks looks ridícuously aesthetic and has tons of looks to choose from>Tonsen figures ended up really good>Tonsen is a cool dude and promotes other things that pair up with his trunks body like the cloth jackets or long hair kits (notice how most accesories manufacters use bandai, tonsen or Kong figures as base but not DF)>trunks shit can fit not just the tonsen body but the 2.0s and BFTF Trunks>DF being the niggers they are copied all the tonsen figures and accesoriesWhen tonsen does the gogetas expect tons of kits to enhance it by other groups
https://www.instagram.com/p/DByebwfpaNV/chink Bojack Trunks Review
>>11218863He's out already?
>>11218874asian regions get the third party stuff early since they're closer to China
>>11218854>DF being the niggers they are copied all the tonsen figures and accesoriesthey have yet to even release anything lmao
>>11218854DF already copies official bandai stuff. None of these third parties have the license so its anything goes. If people missed out on Tonsen stuff and DF copies it, makes it cheaper and better quality I don't see the problem.
>>11218889Who, Tonsen or DF? Because Tonsen already dropped Kid Buu and normal Trunks and they're dropping the Bojack Trunks and Broly Trunks figs by tge end of November. DF are the retards who only make knockoffs and 2.0shit.
Question:First time using GunDamit, I had stuff on preorder with 1 usd deposit. Now that price of the fig is finally known, current deposit is 20 usd. Is my 1 usd pre-order still valid or I need to... preorder it again? I haven't got any emails telling me so.>>11218854I find Tonsen the best sculptor when it comes for faces. His Trunks and Boo are so on fucking point, Bandai is not even close. Hope the guy makes Piccolo someday. But in my eyes, his trunks has a massive flaw with his giant chest. That shirt should be painted on. Making it as a separate piece thickened the torso giving Trunks massive milkers.
where the fuck this trucks from?
>>11219084from when trunks got raped by broly offscreen

Was browsing old threads and found the guy bio cleaner anon snagged a few figures from in the previous thread.
>>11219094Shit, I remember this. But I think the bio cleaner guy said the person had no family and this post seems to imply he did because of the instructions part.
>>11219094I've thought about something like this before. My answer is I would sell them first. Now I'm curious about how much my SHF is worth altogether.
>>11218659this is actually pissing me off. I've been waiting so fucking long for a Future Gohan. Didn't DF announce theirs like 2 fucking years ago? god DAMN i hate those motherfuckers.
>>11219129That's why I never get hyped over renders.
>>11219129The thing is you probably won't see this Trunks for 2 years either. They roughly go in order of what they show off which is why they put out various 2.0 stuff when its outdated. They're just slow as fuck.
Thinking of trying to pursue the con exclusive Beerus and Whis.How fucked am I?
>>11219142we already have physical prototypes for one of their trunks figures, they really just dont give a shit.
>>11219108I was surprised at how much some of these sold for. There are retards buying Gotenks for $100+. Such a horrible figure.
>>11219167My only latetax SHF are OG Tien, OG Yamcha and EE 16.Extra sour with 16, because of bad QC.
>>11219179My only latetax on that whole list is Namek Bulma. Thinking about getting a metal cooler since his price is lower now than what it was on p-bandai
Am I a racist lads?
>>11219284how can there be two Goku's in the same place? and why is one Goku standing in front of King Piccolo's throne, smiling. King Piccolo is his hated enemy. And what happened to Jackie Chun's hair?
>>11219287I have 10 Gokus on the same shelf
>>11219287They are toys
>>11219300Which one is the Canon Goku (CanonKu (CanKu))?
>>112192871. youre autistic or a disingenous fag2. watch the anime/read the manga, Roshi looks like this when he fights Piccolo Daimao
>all these trunkseses>still waiting for gigatrunks
>blackholetoys is bootlegging world tour goku
>>11219300I assume one of them is the real Goku and the others are afterimages, right
>>11219306nta, but heres mine.
>>11219317Blackhole toys is doing that one
>>11219306I do not engage in that degree of autism. Just collecting anime figures alone is enough.
Ordered Trunks. Hopefully I don't miss out/get scammed.
>>11219163Do we have a physical proto for their Trunks? All of the ones I've seen are Tonsen. Anyways fuck DF. After their Sdcc 2024 Goku I'm done with them. >>11219179Tien, Yamcha & chiaotzu should have been evergreen. With the amount of marketing they dedicate to remaking the opening groupshot its weird to not reissue them.>>11219319Does anyone want this? Where's all of this other shit Blackhole?
>>11219179what are your problem with 16?
>>11219514yeah this one is recent, also that gohan, future gohan, and goku figure were redone entirely so expect it to take a bit longer.
>>11219537A ymmv-issue, mine's got some nasty looking nubmarks and spotty paint in some areas.Just disappointing after scalperprice, y'know?
>>11219167>Clone Gokek is going for 85You guys are sucker's lmoa
>>11218060the 3.0 will be way better, probably be SS(superior to blue). Personally I think the SSB Vegitos face/neck make him look like a rat. Never liked the figure at all. even without the lame metallic.>>11219167Lol, interesting chart When I got into this line Gotenks and Great Saiyaman were regularly getting sold for $30-$40 dollars. Gotenks was one of those figures I always so getting listed. PC 1.0 Vegeta was another figure literally everyone wanted to get rid of around this time from what I remember.
>>11219657>the 3.0 will be way betterif we ever get himI know a lot of people don't give a shit about 2.0 or 3.0 or think 2.0 is outright betterI just like the face sculpting and printing as well as the hair sculpting on "3.0"s and prefer the body layout more as well. so rather than going all in on 2.0s at this point, I'd rather wait for 3.0s. Vegito is basically an inverted Goku outfit character, so even if I'm a little cynical now, surely he'll eventually be made?I do hope we get all 3 forms, but I doubt it. SS and maybe Base if we're lucky.But a third party could do SSB repaints and I'll just try to pick that up.
I wish they would put up a poll for which saga they will do figures of next.
I want a regular Oozaru with no armor
>>11219284Yes, hope when they robot you they see this and execute you and your beautiful children.
Finally got him and I love him, seems frieza has a pretty good track record, yes final form is outdated by now, but it was great when it came out.
>>112199223rd form was dogshit
how many fucking goku and trunks figures do we need? why don’t third parties make characters like baby or janemba
>>11219937Can't reuse their molds
is there a website that has accurate values for each figure based on ebay listings?
>>11219942I trust mandarake sales more than ebay desu
not restocking p-bandai figures is fucking retarded. the ginyu force members are impossible to get now without paying $200+ for each of them.
>>11219949I missed Burter because I'm a retard and he's like a 300 figure now. I agree they need to restock
>>11219949Just say limited release figures are fucking retarded.
>>11219937Many, many more.But yeah I do agree, it'd be cool if third party gave us Janemba, Perfect Cell 2.0 , Final Form Frieza 2.0, etc.
>>11219956idr which chink 3rd party did it but years ago one of them had a janemba that looked really good but nothing came of it
>>11219959Wasn't that also DF? They did a LOT of renders.
>>11219965It was a render photo. I can't find it on DF's insta or anywhere for that matter which is weird. All I could find is pic related from a month ago on reddit made by some random guy and not a company.
>>11219949When Sailor Moon reissued their season 1 figuarts of the scouts they called the new one "animation" version or something and iirc the colours on their outfits were just a bit more bright. Would be an easy way for them to get around the exclusivity bullshit. The original scouts weren't limited so I'm coping rn but like, Good Buu getting a standard re-release gives me some hope
>>11219986those are for 1/16 scale figures, but tonsen is doing a gogeta and gotenks
>>11220009Yea basically if they recolor it or slightly change something it gets around that unspoken reissue rule. Like the original Goku Black was pbandai and then they made the Rose budget version which was the same figure minus a lot of the parts. Or a better more recent example budget godku. The tough part with the Ginyu is that they're a group of 3 figures compared to doing something like godku or Black.
>>11220033Honestly, Ginyu Force only chance is as EEs.Different shade or matte armor, removed accessories like frog, scouter trunk, and the dragon balls of course.
>>11219937Tonsen will do Gotenks, Gogeta and Perfect CellKong will do Z Broly and both AF and heroes slop, if lucky armorless 3.0 bejitaBlack Hole is doing super Bejita, Buffku time chamber, Buff Trunks, Future Gohan and Z ultimate GohanDF will do the same shit the first two do but cheaper, outdated, and six months lateThe reason we dont get things like Gogeta or Baby is becuase chinks expect Bandai will do it in the next two years. Tonsen will probably end up doing Janemba tho
>>11220075One of these mfers needs to give me a Frieza FF 2.0 and/or 4th form Cooler
>>11219937>>11220075Here's Tonsens upcoming figures: Gogeta, Goku, Gotenks and a teased Gohan. He has some headsculpts as well but who knows whats happening with those
When are they doing the sixrh member of the Ginyu force?
>>11219929Wrong
>>11220121I really want Jeice, he's my favorite member... Honestly I want them all except Guldo, sorry
>>11220191it was a garbage release
>>11220200Lol no, I have him and he's fun to pose, faces are great too
>>11220214he's like 3 times smaller than he should be
>>11220200how
>>11220219skipped leg dayugly hollow head garbage tiny af
>>11220214Agreed. He's honestly a really underrated release because of people caterwauling about his size and because 2nd form Frieza came out in the same year and people preferred that.
>>11220222>hollow headWhat, you want him to need a stand to keep his head up? SS3 Goku neck?
>>11220230God, we could really use a new SS3 Goku.
>>11220235We could use so many better things before a new SS3.
>>11220237Yeah, no, fair. It just made me think of it.
>>11220235We need a THIRD SSJ3 Goku? Here's your $40 slop you fucking twat
>>11220217>he's like 3 times smaller than he should beNot really
>>11220241Why wouldn't we need a 3.0 SS3 Goku?
>>11220243My little alien...
>>11220243I get that some people prefer the hulking 3rd form, and I kind of would be interested in it too. See how it would look as a figure with that size.But I am kinda fine with the 3rd form we got. More visual variety. 1st and Final Form are small, 2nd is Xbox hueg, 3rd is regular height/a bit above average. Also, he's a beam spammer, so I don't feel like he needs the 2nd form physique per se.
>>11220121>>>/mlp/
>>11220214scale aside the stubby legs make the figure look bad. monster zarbon is looking to have the same problem. they can’t figure out how to do top heavy characters without giving them baby legs.
>>11220258>scale aside the stubby legs make the figure look bad.Yeah, because he has stubby legs in the anime see >>11220243
>>11220265Only in Super. Which is not canon
>>11220288Superchads won.
>>11220288The only canon piece of media is Dragon Ball Z: Cooler's Revenge
>>11220302CoolerGODs, is this true?
>>11220288Toys aren't canon so it fits
>they still haven't announced the other daima slop yet
>>11220321It has been cancelled
>>11220321It's in the calendar, at least.But yeah it'll probably make up the bulk of the Tamashii Nation DB announcements.Prease look forward to it.
>>11219740Me too. Cuz hot.

>>11219084>>11219091wrong nipplewrong tears
>>11220265the ichiban kuji has more accurate proportions
>>11221188cool statue retard
>>11220245I wish he came with two blast effects. Would've been so inexpensive for them to do too.
Ordered this on a whim because it was cheap. What am I in for? And will they make other colors?
>>11221318A shit head.An ok face (by FPSS standards, which are low)A good heavy-duty standA kinda cheap looking base that is made to emulate rocks but the finish on it makes it pretty muddyA nice aura with two modes (ground and flight)A good Kamehameha blast effect after years of only getting charging effects. But you will be a little annoyed/disappointed that there's only the tail option where it feels like a big regular ki blast or the big Kamehameha beam bulb BUT it has Goku hands molded into it, so you its usage as a beam is a slightly limited (to figures with Goku-like hands, like Gohan)Chances of reuses and recolors are... questionable. I definitely wouldn't mind seeing this in different colors, but Bandai already has their official aura effects, and this one looks like it's part of a specific SS Goku Kamehameha Effects set. I wouldn't say it's impossible, but I personally imagine they'll just make different sets for different characters' special attacks, like Galick Gun/Final Flash or Special Beam Cannon, and then tie the right aura colors into those. Time will tell, I guess.
>>11219284>Am I a racist lads?Yes, but I don't mind. Were'd, you get the throne? Ichiban Kuiji?
>>11221386third party made 2 colors for a while.wish I got it back then

Full Power Frieza is great
How would you rank all of the Frieza figures now that we have all of his forms?
>>11221530>6'0 vs 5'11
All the King Cold figure is missing is a wine glass accessory
>>11221530That's what I look like on the toilet.
>>11221337I don't even own the FPSS anymore, I got the set to go with the Namek Goku, so the head is useless to me. You are correct with your points. I would just like the energy aura in purple to go with Frieza.My gripe is the holes in the stand do not fit regular tamashii arms so I'm stuck having one stick out in front.
>>11221561I was so relieved when I found out that the hands for the Kamehameha blast fit LSS Goku.Imagine if it only fit 2.0 Gokus.
Anyone got the bootleg Tamashii Effects (different colors, hard to get exclusive colors) from like ebay or aliexpress?If so, how are they? I know they won't be on par with the official product, but is there anything weird about them? Do they smell? Do they affect figures you put them with? Do they play their role well enough?
>King Kai silhouette dropped from OPThey're still just developing a basketball sized King Kai Planet to go with him right bros?
i want an EoZ goku, fully articulated.

>extra gunpla piece with a 5mm port>slashy slashy, snip snipAhh, my tism about the extra stand needed has been cured>>11221563I was prepared to make them fit if they didn't, but it was nice they fit.
>>11221561Put GInyu-Goku head on it or something.>>11221566Same when this was asked last time; they do smell and can be quite sticky.
kong's vegeta figures just dropped in asia
>>11221877nice thighs lol
>>11221877Looks pretty fucking good.
at what point do we admit that 3rd parties have surpassed Bandai
>>11221971When they make something I'm actually interested in.
>>11221971when they do an updated final form frieza mold and perfect cell
>>11221989BASEDandBASEDPILLED
>>11221971When trying to get them isn't a "you pre-order 5 years in advance and if you didn't get your pre-order in, you either pay 500 dollars for one head sculpt or never have the chance to get it again".
>>11221877wow black looks great. will this eventually pop up on alixpress?
>>11221971Anthony's started reviewing them, so they've gone mainstream now.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOu62oUyJV0
DF stuff is comparable to like bandai general releases where they're cheaper, you don't have to pre-order them and there's a bunch of them available when they actually release. All the other 3p are like p-bandai with really limited numbers and you get fucked if you don't preorder. DF can be shitty with their render spam but the way they actually price and supply their shit is what it should be for non licensed stuff.
>>11222061Nah, other 3p stuff makes p-bandai looks like child's play.And I agree. DF is shit about putting stuff out, but at least it's available.I can't justify getting into 3p when all the stuff I want is "you were there or you weren't and if not, enjoy being shit out of luck, bitch."
Thinking of buying Buffku from BBTS.This SHOULD be the re-issue with the fixed chest color right?
>>11222068Yeah. I've only got that Beast Deities Broly on PO through Ali, and am still very antsy about it.
>>11222080The only one that interests me right now is Kid Buu, but I missed the window on that and have so much on PO that I can't fit it in. I'll just wait for the Bandai ver 500 years from now.There's also a bunch of heads that look interesting, but like I said: I just can't bring myself to hop down the rabbit hole. It's just no fun.
>>11222075The chest color between the two is hardly different from what I've seen.
>>11219075>First time using GunDamit>Is my 1 usd pre-order still validYes. I asked them the same question once. Even more I asked them which version of figure I have in order when ordinary and deluxe version were annouced (they said I'll get deluxe one).
>>11222085Well I remember around re-release people were saying that it was fixed.I don't care if the original color mis-match doesn't stand-out in person, it does stands out in photos and that's what matters to me.
>>11221971They already did, Tonsen at leastIf you guys had the tonsen trunks shock oiled he poses great, has a fuck ton of accesories and is aesthetically pleasing while being a 100% original sculpt with its own set of improvementsI don't think i ever liked a db figure to the point of not being able to put the tray of accesories back in the box
>>11222054Yeah, but they cost more compared to 5ktoys
>>11222102Stop juggling your balls in your pockets princess Trunks.
>>112215372 > Full Power > Mecha > 1 > 3I like all of them but one has to be the worst
>>11221537(Omitting Mecha since I don't have it and no plans to get it)Objectively it's probably like2>Full Power>1>3Personally, it's 1>2=3>Full PowerJust can't beat the first form's design in terms of nostalgia. And I like both 2 and 3 in their own way, but I like Final Form Cooler more than I like 2nd form Frieza. Now if we got a good 2.0 Final Form Frieza, he'd probably be above 1.
>>11216233Make the Cell Jrs a set. Throw in a new SSJ2 Gohan, Yajirobe, Bulma and Chi Chi and we can move to the Boo arc.
>>11221537I don't own 2nd or 3rd, so I guess take my ranking with a grain of salt.Also I have recently bias with full power.2>fullpower>1>mecha>3 >final>goldI have very few emotional attachment to gold so that probably doesn't help him, but I still don't like it at all trying to look at it objectively.
Haven't bought a 3'rd party figure before but I'm really interested in Adolescence Malevolence. ebay has some for around 90-100, is there a better place to get him from?
>>11222311Aliexpress
>>11222313>AliexpressThank you! Saved me some cash.
>>11222313>>11222320Not all heroes wear capes. Glad people aren't always at the throat in this thread.
>>11221998How is that different to SHF?
>>11222574Contrary to your belief, PB releases are quite easy to get outside the US and Japan.
>>112215371 - 8/10 An all around solid release comes with bonus hover chair.2 - 9/10 A near perfect release, massive size really makes him stand out.3 - 8/10 Undersized legs, (fuck the retcon) but is a great figure non the less.4 - 9/10 when it came out, 7/10 by today's standards.FP - 9/10 Buffza is amazing.Cyborg - 9/10 Another great release with fantastic detail for all the little mechanical parts.All high ratings but they really did Freeza justice in the Figuarts line.
>>11222579Get me an EE Nappa please.
>>11222574Tracking down old P-Bandai figures is child's play compared to an old third party product.
3.0 BD Bejita vs 2.0 Bandai Bejita, both with Tonsen headsculpts
>>11222612even copied the huge ass thighs that stick out from bandai
for anyone getting the xeno vegeta figures, dont put them in hot water.
>>11222699>vegeta>has scuffed kneesThe jokes write themselves.
>>11222612only thing left does better is chest width and neck thickness
>>11222075I just got mine not to long ago from there, I don't notice much of a difference. I used to own the first release and it was much worse.
Guys I'm a big dum idiot and I want to get into DBZ but it seems so overwhelming, I feel like for starting I should just get a regular ass Goku but then I look and see there are like 80 of them out there and I don't know what is good and what isn't, what is compatable with what and so on, I'm not opposed to 3rd parties either but that just adds to the pile of gokus with parts that may or may not fit with other things, so I haven't even pulled the trigger on anything yetLike what even is a difference between a 2.0 and a 3.0 I have watched videos and can't ever seem to find a straight answerIs 3 better than 2? It seems like a lotAm I overthinking everything
>>11222767The only Gokus worth buying are Super Saiyan 4 Goku and Legendary Super Saiyan Goku. The rest are shit. That's all you really need to know.
>>11222775You can't just fucking say that in the Goku 2.0 general. Think of all the sunk cost they went through buying Goku but with a different shade of orange. Have some respect for their feelings.
>>11222612Just what Vegeta was missing... being the same height as Goku.
>>11222767>Like what even is a difference between a 2.0 and a 3.0I will answer this, probably incorrectly, based on my limited knowledge and context clues from having been in the hobby for about 4 months nowThe difference between 2.0 and 3.0 is just how the figure is engineered and if that engineering is standardized for other releases of the same character. So, as an example, there's 3 different versions of 4th form Frieza in the SHFA line. They have slightly different painting, slightly different accessories, but they're all, functionally, the same figure otherwise. So they're all 1.0s. If they released a new 4th form Frieza, made a new mold for him that adopted the engineering techniques of, say, the Mecha Frieza or Meta Cooler figures, who are built to a more modern standard, that would make him a 2.0.
V jump Kid Goku is looking good scale wise.
>>11222767I don't think Bandai has ever used the term officially so the whole thing has always been kind of grey. Initially, we started using the term 2.0 to refer to figures that had the newer hips that we first got on Awakening Goku. This also coincided with a new design on the boxes themselves. Pretty much every figure that came after him aside from a few had the 2.0 hips. Then with (if I remember right) SSJ4 Goku, we got the new 3.0 hips but no new box designs or anything like that.Now that we have 3.0 hips, that doesn't mean every new figure is a 3.0. Even after SSJ4, Bandai released Kefla with 1.0 hips. Also keep in mind that a figure can be a 2.0 or 3.0 without having a 1.0 version of it. It's referring to the style of articulation in the hips or according to some people the design of the box at least for 1.0 and 2.0. Using >>11222809's example, Mecha Frieza is a 3.0. He's correct that all the 4th form Friezas they've done are 1.0s, but if they made a new one now using the same articulation as Mecha Frieza, it'd be a 3.0, not a 2.0.All that being said, a figure being a 3.0 doesn't necessarily make it better than a 2.0, but I don't think there's anyone here who would argue a 1.0 is better than a 2.0 or 3.0. You can see an example of a 3.0 and 2.0 hips here >>11222612. 1.0s just have a ball and peg between the crotch and the thigh with nothing in between. For the mostly basic poses I put my figures in, I'd rather have the better looking 2.0 hips than the I guess slightly better articulation of the 3.0 hips but everyone has their own preferences.
>>11222699That's why you use shock oil.
>>11222907Bandai made a clear distinction between the 1.0 and 2.0 eras, though. They didn't outright call it that, but they made a big deal about upgrading the engineering, the sculpt, detail, etc, which started with Awakening Goku. Most of the figures that came out in the 1.0 era adhered to pretty much the same articulation setup from figure to figure with little deviation.It wasn't just the hips that was updated, it was also the knees, the torsos on a lot of figures, and some other stuff, along with way better sculpting and face tampo, along with the box changes. They also indicated that was indeed two separate "eras" in the 15th anni book that came with the Toytoaro MUI Goku, but having all of the 1.0s in one image, and everything after in another image.The problem now is that they deviate away from the supposed "normal" articulation setup they established at the beginning of the 2.0 era. Its more that they just tend to try a whole bunch of shit, probably depending on the actual design of the character, and what they think will work. They can't even be consistent when they actually discover something that works really well, which is why we have like, 4 different setups for the armor for figures like Freiza's minions, Broly, etc. Even the supposed "3.0 hips" have several different designs and variations, some of which work better than others.Ironically, most of the time it looks uglier than the "2.0" design, and in EVERY case, it doesn't work as well, since the legs have virtually no backward movement.
>>11222934>Ironically, most of the time it looks uglier than the "2.0" design, and in EVERY case, it doesn't work as well, since the legs have virtually no backward movement.Now tell us about the outward movement of the 2.0 hips and the cameltoe crotch hoops.
>>11222934LSS Goku looks better than any Goku before.
>>11222806Other pics show that the Kong Vegeta is actually SHORTER than the Bamdai Vegeta.
>>11222822>all this practiceOur boy will come out perfect.
Why do 2.0fags have such sunk cost.
>>11222934>They also indicated that was indeed two separate "eras" in the 15th anni book that came with the Toytoaro MUI Goku, but having all of the 1.0s in one image, and everything after in another image.And that's part of what makes it grey in my opinion. As far as box styles and "era" go, they call Beerus a 2.0, but you can not seriously sit here and tell me that figure is a 2.0.
>>11223044>As far as box styles and "era" go, they call Beerus a 2.0, but you can not seriously sit here and tell me that figure is a 2.0.He sure has clear 1.0 knees and hips.Fuck, updated Beerus when?
>>11222822
>>11222767Just began collecting at the start of the month after weeks of agonizing so I feel you. I'd suggest starting off by just making a list of figures you do want, and then researching them one at a time. Nothing too crazy just a couple of different youtube/reddit reviews or this thread. Youtube especially since you can actually see the figure, paint job, how it moves etc.That'll let you know if there are any major QOL concerns to look out for, or if a figure is just completely messed up like the OG Trunks Boy from the Future one (it's been fixed). If a figure you do want was Premium Bandai exclusive I'd try and make those a bigger focus.
>>11223014Can you list the number of 3.0s theyve made so far
More of a statue, but I gave the lad a cape.
>>11223443oof
>>11222699this is the main reason i dont fuck with these third party figures. sure they can look cool in pictures, but its like 9/10 its either going to be too loose in places, need silicone oil in others, fall apart or some fucking bullshit. And these things cost pretty much the same as offical shit. every one of these figures i bought (it was Demonacal fit) made FP Goku feel like high quality and that was the shittiest official figure I bought out of like 50+.
My camera sucks and I need more space but I'm having fun setting up mashup scenario's of Dragon Ball with my Sailor Moon figuarts.
>>11223565>but its like 9/10 its either going to be too loose in places, need silicone oil in others, fall apart or some fucking bullshitI mean, that's just like the official stuff.
>>11222102Does anyone know why Tonsen B is more available than Tonsen A? I heard two theories that 95A sold out faster, but others saying that shipping has been really delayed on 05A
>>11223703I would say there's a 99% chance more people want the anime(ish) colour version than the manga(ish) one so it sold out quicker.
>>11223565they're right at home then since tamashii quality control is about the same for me
It's crazy that Tonsen knocked it out of the park with Future Trunks. And that Future Trunks has been getting so much attention around here. The last time I've seen everyone jumping on a figure is either Awakening Goku or Buffku. Awakening Goku was crazy popular when it came out.
>>11223737Eh, Trunks is my favourite character and I skipped the first Tonsen Trunks because of my issues with the colours. I've ordered the Bojack Trunks though (although the choice of metallic hair for that also annoys me). It might be minor things to some people and I would understand why they would just enjoy the strong points of the figure, but to me it's extra frustrating when they get so close to perfect but then stumble on something dumb.
>>11223589what's the background?
Sparking Zero has pulled me back in. I've been opening up my stack of backlogged preorders.How you guys enjoying the game btw?Cui's pretty nice, a basic body but a fun figure carried by it's expressions.
The ear/scouter swap is pretty annoying, especially needing 2 scouters for different faces.I wish they had a better way to pull that off.
>>11223703Other than color preference, A has the better exclusive parts like the dynamic wind-swept purple hair (pic).All you get with B is the slightly different bang which most people would already have if they also own the official Trunks 2.0 >>11218634
Dirty fireworks hand really shoulda been packed in with Vegeta, its one hand, but packing it in with Cui is the next best option I guess. He's got no other iconic pose.
Atleast it matches Cui's gloves too
>>11223913Same. I just got Figuarts First Form Frieza in the mail today and I'm expecting to get Super Buu and Z Broly Figuarts tomorrow with Hit coming by Friday. I also have the Dragon Stars Janemba and Omega Shenron coming. They were only like $20 each and they seem to be the best figure options for the characters. I hope they make a Figuarts Janemba sometime. I got Figuarts Final Form Cooler a few weeks ago and already had Perfect Cell and Final Form Frieza from a long time ago when they first came out, probably 10 years ago. Playing Sparking Zero and talking about DBZ with my workmates has pulled me in too.
>>11223946Nice, so far I've opened up 2nd Form, 3rd Form Frieza and Turles along with Metal Cooler and Future Trunks, they've all been fantastic so far. Would've taken pics of the first three but I forgot to charge my camera battery.>I just got Figuarts First Form Frieza in the mail today and I'm expecting to get Super Buu and Z Broly Figuarts tomorrow with Hit coming by FridayHit and 1st Form Frieza unfortunately were put away unopened, but Super Buu is one of the best figures of the line (or he was at the time of release). Mine had an extremely stiff shoulder joint that even with lubricant remained stiff so I might track down the reissue.Even though I tried hard to get my hands on a Z Broly I never did manage to get one. I hope he gets a 2.0 eventually seeing as he's still popular even with the existence of Super Broly. Though I'm curious how solid or hollow he'd be if they did.> I also have the Dragon Stars Janemba and Omega Shenron coming. They were only like $20 each and they seem to be the best figure options for the characters. I hope they make a Figuarts Janemba sometime.Janemba and Omega Shenron would be awesome, I feel Janemba is guaranteed to happen eventually but I would've doubted Omega Shenron being made until I saw that they announced Super 17.I'm really stoked for Super 17, he would've been an instant PO if I was paying attention to his announcement.I'm surprised he's the first of the GT villains seeing as he's the least popular, but that can only mean good things for Baby and O.Shenron>Playing Sparking Zero and talking about DBZ with my workmates has pulled me in too.It's just great to have a complete game again, I know I'll get a ton of fun out of the custom battles. Someone already said it's like how we saw us playing with our action figures as kids which is exactly what I wanted from it.Won't stop me from buying the action figures though
>>11223913>How you guys enjoying the game btw?Don't have it, but I watch some clips here and there.Looks like they gave the U6 saiyans downs syndrome.
>>11224013yeah some of the super style characters didnt translate well
>>11221971when they deviate from only making goku vegeta and trunks variants
>>11222767the best goku figures are legendary ssj and ssj4. the other ones are only worth buying if you really like that particular look for goku.
>>11222767just a heads up if you want to start collecting the villain characters. some older p-bandai releases are pretty fucking expensive now. raditz, the ginyu force members and final form cooler in particular. some from last year like turles, second form frieza and metal cooler are starting to get up there in price too. the rest you can find for close to what they originally retailed for.
>>11223864Some cardboard slip that came with my Chun-Li SH Figuarts. It's supposed to be the Chinese stage from Street Fighter 6.
>>112241262nd form Frieza is catching up to Final Form Cooler it's crazy. Want them both but I'd rather get more for my $ by focusing on newer P Bandai's I also like.
>>11222767unless bandai wakes up, the best goku its the 3P one with 3.0 articulationsif you rather wait get the LSSJ one and SSJ4, Honorable mentions, Kid goku (GT) its amazing
Can Chi Chi sit on King Cold's lap?
>>11224495the lss and ss4 goku are still better than this demoniacal fit one, and yeah gt kid goku is pretty goodthe demoniacal fit is only good if you REALLY want a 3.0 base goku in his classic outfiti bet when bandai releases theirs (between now and the next 15 yrs), the articulation will be changed a little. the crotch will at least be softer plastic to accommodate a backwards kick like the lss
>>11224519I don't see why not
>>11224495>everytime i see this 3p goku
>>11224598because demonica fit are retarded but they want people to use the heads from goku 2.0tonsent probably can deliver the goku we are waiting with the same ball join
>>11224598Broad buff pecs and biceps absolutely make me think Cell/Buu Z. Not quite manboobs level like that Tonsen Trunks, but definitely a bit of that.The faces (which are, I think, the only thing DF did custom) are pretty eh though.
>>11224598A combination of the weird face and off silhouette body shape makes the whole thing look off when you look at him. His face is just Super Hero Gohan rather than an accurate late Z Goku.
>>11224648I thought it was snatched from Turles.
>>11224653Actually yea it could be that, which also doesn't look right as late Goku.
>>11224665Yeah, it's definitely the weakest part about DF's Baseku 3.0.
Raditz is such a good looking figure but his articulation is complete dogshit
Now I'm waiting for the release of Gogeta, Gotenks and Z Broly.
>>11224157That's what I thought it was.
>>11224495this goku looks like shit.
new pic of DF's xeno goku
>>11224495Goku's never had these retarded proportions.
>>11224009>Super Buu is one of the best figures of the line (or he was at the time of release).I got home from work and opened up Super Buu and yeah, I can definitely see why I've seen so many people praise him. Mine seems great. It's a big figure who's sturdy and really fun to pose. I was never a huge Buu fan but I've really warmed up to Super Buu and the figure is awesome. Z Broly is fucking huge too. I swear his arm is the size of Frieza's entire body. I'm just waiting on my Janemba to come in now. Not a Figuarts but I've really enjoyed playing him in Sparking Zero so I'm excited to have him in hand.
kong head on a buffku body.
>>11224696That's a lie but he does have other problems that makes him annoying to me
>>11223913Nice pictures! It's for people to learn about Cui greatness!>>11223915Yeah, it's really annoying. Does yours also fall off easily too?
>>11224915*it's time
>>11224873you think sroe goku is better?
>>11224495But Bandai already made the best Goku.
>>11224968>2.0nah
>>11224972>take a body that was designed specifically for Gohan's Superhero proportions>slap a half assed, low effort Goku head on it>BeST GoKU EveRRR2.0 could be improved for sure, but >>11224495 looks awful. Bandai probably has 5+ Gokus that look better than this does.
>>11224988But we're not arguing if the DF is good.You said that figure was the best Goku, and it isn't. Never has been, and never will be.
>>11224968Other than the shoulders (and ankles) I've never minded that Goku body. I still find myself fiddling around with SROE Goku.
>>11224968I'm still surprised no third party has jumped on the kid Gohan accessories and shit.
>>11225001shoulders, ankles, outward leg range, sculpt definition
>>11224988>take a body that was designed specifically for Gohanbecause gohan and goku are nothing alike
>>11224918Better than what 3P cooked up, definitely. The bootleg looks off-model as fuck.
stupid buff goku is z-core
>>11224120Beast Deities/Kong made a BrolyTonsen Art Toys made Kid BuuDemoniacal fit has promised a billion fuckin characters (which haven't manifested yet)
>>11225152SS4 Gogeta where? Janemba where? 4th form Cooler where? Perfect Cell 2.0 where? Final Form Frieza 2.0 where?
>>11225157>SS4 GogetaReal fuckin early Tonsen renders>The restI know man I need them too.
>>11225048SROE Goku is off-model as fuck so I guess they're even.
>>11225000>You said that figure was the best Goku, and it isn't.My bad, it is the best base Goku we have gotten to date. Or at least it is my personal pick for best due to how well they did the faceplates. Buffku is probably my pick for overall best Goku.
>>11225266I guess by process of elimination, it is.I still don't think it's good, but that's also subjective. The faces are accurate, but they're not the kinds of face sculpts I like for SHF. Buffku's faces, with that increased sharpness and angularity, are what I would like to have for all versions of Goku going forward. Though they could obviously make alts the way they did for the 2.0 body.
Next exclusive is Gogeta with translucent gold super saiyan hair. Spread the word.
>>11225343Post-covid I don't give a damn about EEs anymore.
>>11225343I assume when next we get a Gogeta, it'll be a 3.0 Fusion Reborn release.
>>11225343>>11225352I figured we'd have a Fusion Reborn repaint of this Gogeta as an EE by now, but I also figured we'd have the same for base form Gotenks as well.
>>11225343I know this is bullshit but ill bite anyway, Super colors or DBZ movie colors?
>>11225343with the quality face they give now its gonna be a easy good addition to the line
>>11224895I like the details but not on that body
The fact that not even scalpers are taking advantage of this guy being rare means most of his stock hasn't shipped out yet.
>>11225392If true its gotta be the dbs one it just makes too much sense. A complete reuse of the figure which would be accurate to what its portraying and they love doing translucent hair. When I read that anon's post I thought "yea that's something they'd do".
>>11225410He's like 1.5-2x the price he started at and always more expensive than the B variant. How is that not taking advantage?
>>11225429There's like 3 or 4 of them out there total
>>11225392Gonna be DBS colors then possibly DBZ colors later. This way they can milk the mold and get people to buy 3 releases instead of 2.
>>11225227It's not even close to as bad as the 3P abomination. Fucking look at it. The feet look fucked, the head looks nothing like Goku. The silhouette of the 3P is never how Goku has looked.
>>11225460SROE head also looks nothing like Goku and has fucked up arms. I think you're blinded to just how ugly SROE and the 2.0 body is, mate.
>>11225477Nobody cares about your bootleg trash, mate. I hope it gives you lead paint poisoning.
>>11225343>translucent haircool, easy skip then
>>11225460and yet everyone likes it more than sroe...hmh..
Battle armor Krillin and 2nd form Frieza don't really have the right optional parts to recreate this do they?
This Vegeta seems to have some fairly noticeable gaps with his chest and neck, also his neck likes to get stuck in place quite a bit.Slightly annoying issues when trying to pose him but pretty minor, overall he's alright.
>>11225596Yeah sometimes I look at listings and get tempted to buy one because his head looks good and from certain angles the fig can look good. But then I remember all the huge gaps and the awful armour and I come to my senses. Maybe if he was 1/3 the price.
>>11224915Thanks anon, though idk about Cui's greatness.Seriously though he did grow on me a lil more when posing him with Vegeta. Despite his outdated shoulder pad hinges he's a really solid figure, my copy has great joints so he poses incredibly well.>Yeah, it's really annoying. Does yours also fall off easily too?I could not get the ear off his base smiling head when I first opened him up, thought I was gonna scratch up the plastic. Once I did get it out it became a lot easier.It's a bit concerning just how tiny that ear piece is.
2nd Form Frieza is a phenomenal figure.I know they have a good track record with large figures but he is a lot of fun.>>11225606Yeah I did find the pointed section of his armour got in the way when doing any poses with Vegeta's arms stretched in front of him, also with Cui. I know it's that way so the shoulder pads sit flush when they're down but I would've preferred it curved in a little more as to not hinder movement, or possibly have the shoulder pads carry a bit more plastic so they can move out of the way. I don't recall if he was an exclusive or not but if he's readily available now he might have a reasonable discount come Black Friday.He's by no means a bad figure so if you can find him for a price you like it wouldn't be the worst choice.The other thing to consider I guess is that if you want him "complete", you have to think about getting Cui too.
It's great that it can get into poses like this.
>>11225622Not the greatest picture of the pose honestly, but his hand is actually able to touch the ground and his legs compress real well underneath him.
Last set of pics is this SSBKK Goku.Don't have too many of these completely pearlescent figures. Does the paint hold up on these?I don't want to scratch him up posing it if the paint/sheen is going to wear off easily.
>>11225621>>11225622Yeah, there's a reason he was considered one of the top figures of last year.One gripe I have with him is that his shoulders should've been attached to his arms. It's funny, because technically the shoulder tech they used for him IS good, and they should use it on figures with, say, saiyan armor.But it just isn't right for him. In that form, his shouldercaps follow his arms. They're not qutie actual shoulderpads yet like 3rd form.You can see an example of what I mean on this pic. The shoulders follow the arm, rather than lifting up to make way for the arm (like they do on the figure when you put his arms forward). Now, on that pic, they're also still attached to the chest armor, which you couldn't do on a figure, but that's just a sacrifice you got to make.
Imagine Bandai going with softrubber armor after their great success with IW.
>>11225639Yeah, I see what you mean. It's not something immediately noticeable unless you're referring to pics of the characters while messing around with the figures, and the shoulders already do a good job so you wouldn't notice anything off about them just messing with the figure.Maybe as a result of his underarms being Frieza's pink skin and therefore the butterfly joint using the same pink plastic as his arms, they thought it would break up the illusion of his shouldecap being connected to his armour with the colour separation if you were to do any poses with his arms forward, had they gone that route to begin with. In that case they could've made the butterfly joint in white plastic but then it might look off doing any poses with his arms raised above him.Either way it's just a minor gripe as you mentioned, I'm still very satisfied with what we ended up with.
>>11225653It's a difficult situation. I just think raising the arms forward and the shoulders flipping up to make room for them looks a bit whack. Outward movement is fine, of course.But yes, regardless, I do think 2nd form Frieza is a great figure. Even if I personally prefer Final Form Cooler. (But that's just comparing good to good)
no idea who but someone is doing gogeta
>>11225789Looks like a repainted ssj4 (you can see the red bleeding through) with the a tonsenart buutenks shirt and 3p head. Nice custom kitbash though.
>>11225794The headsculpt is new
>>11225789looking more into it, seems its just a personal thing air studio did.
>>11215724I wish he'd get reissued but that's wishful thinking on my part.
saw this listed on aliexpress
>>11225849maybe as a event exclusive at some point
>>11225856Look at all those gang sign hands
>>11225596this line seem have lost the ability of doing necks frieza and king cold have the same problems, that vegeta is just dogshit, the only saving grace is the faces
>>11225862>event exclusiveSigh, better than nothing I guess.
>>11215724>>11225849>>11225862>>11225936They should make Cooler Platino
>>11226014actually fairly coolbut imagine fucking final form cooler with the finish of the metal cooler shfnightmare
>>11225596i don't like him.
>>11225856When did he go SSG rather than just SS Blue? And what's up with those gold hands?
>>11226077Why are you posting on 4chan Toriyama? You are dead.
>>11226133He never went god this is just a variant that third party companies are starting to make for whatever reason, there will be a blue dbh gi variant and regular ssj variant too.
>>11225608>Despite his outdated shoulder pad hingesHe would be a 10/10 for me if he has Turles or Raditz shoulder pads, I wonder how hard it would be to customize it>I could not get the ear off his base smiling head when I first opened him up, thought I was gonna scratch up the plasticOh yeah, it was hard the first time haha>It's a bit concerning just how tiny that ear piece isYeah, be careful with that
>>11225622Yeah, he and Turles are my top figures from the line. Enjoy him
>>11226167Turles is a really good looking fig but I just can't bring myself to buy him because he's not really a character.
Is there any point in keeping the brown shipper boxes the figuarts come in? I remember seeing a long time ago someone said people would sell them and I have a bunch and I'm looking to make space. I didn't plan on selling the actual figuarts either. I just can't imagine the empty boxes holding any value, but figured I'd ask around before just trashing them.
new 3.0 vegitos for anyone that missed Kong's
>>11226652Value is fig+boxAlone.,. Well, only desperate people. Like those selling empty gamecases.
>>11226669I only really understand getting the boxes with retro games desu.
>>11226659>base and ss are separate releasesnaw
>>11226669That's pretty much what I thought, thanks
>>11226659>Smartphone>Clownhands>Dishwashing glovesAnd no wavy hair for God! baka
>>11226659nigga got no neck
>>11226652I keep it all for the most value. If you ever do sell them you'll be glad to have all the boxes. If you really want to get rid of the shippers then sell them. Definitely don't trash them.
>>112249722.0 is a retarded fanmade word that means nothing
>>11227460Then why are you so upset about nothing?
>>11227460do you understand what I'm referring to?then it does its job
>>11227460Can you go be a faggot about fan made terms somewhere else? it gets the job done in letting us know which molds figures use.
>>112278203.0 is contentious because there are redesigns and adjustments to it. It's a work in progress.But we can tell it's not 1.0 and not 2.0, so it's its own thing, even if it's currently a bit malleable.Some elements tend to return, even if slightly modified. Like Boy from the Future Trunks and SS4 Goku's legs aren't that different. Thighs just has a larger thigh plate, but structurally they're still pretty similar. Not sure why they keep fucking with it, though. I think the SS4 pants are pretty pleasant other than the fact that they are lacking backward range (which LSS Goku does a good job at mending).
kong/bd's xeno vegetas
>>11227998nice
>>11227998why did they copy the ss4 vegeta thigh thing
>>11227998Okay, but Kong Galo Sengen when?
Can someone make Chi-Chi sit on King Cold's lap?
>>11228079you good?
>>11228099Yeah, why?
>>11227820i still love the hair on the 1.0never understood the obsession with having MORE hair spikes with MORE sculpted lines on each strand
>>11228170Not sharp enough. Looks like play-doh
>>11227998What was the name of this one?
>>11228170The sculpt of that hair was ok, but that orange color in the hair was a fucking stupid idea.
>>11221877God damn those are some sexy faces, bandai needs to take note.>>11218854Holy fuck that SSG head is unreal, now I need someone to make the full xeno trunks with the weird time sword bullshit.
>>11228079Are you going to ask the same stupid shit every fucking thread?
i dont even collect dragonball stuff, but damn the cell figuarts looks outdated
Please tell me that SSJ4 Goku's ankles are weak by design and that mine isn't fucked up
why does no one ever talk about ssj4 gohan?
>>11228440the 1st form cell?
>>11228458Because it only exists in some gacha games.Got King Cold today. He's very big, but hard to play with. Turles/Broly shoulders would have helped, but his tail is insanely heavy. Still cool, but 2nd Form feels better to move around. And 2nd Form feels tiny afterwards too. I still need Paragus and King Vegeta for a nice dad off.
xeno goku ssj4 from df preorders are up
>>11228582>I still need Paragus and King Vegeta for a nice dad offThis but the Z designs
>>11228582>Because it only exists in some gacha gamesWe've had several posts about Xeno Goku and Vegeta
>>11228458>>11228626And I care about none of them.
>>11227998look like the best vegeta ever done unironically this is so fuck up honestly
>>11228784The wig is amazing yea
I’m guessing the best Goku figure is the DF body + SDCC 2024 exclusive faces?
>>11228797Can't call that the best Goku figure when you're still swapping parts.
>>11228797Best Gokus are Ultra Instinct, SS2, SS4, and Legendary Super Saiyan
>>11228797Tf is the obsession with the df goku body? It really doesn't even look good.
>>11228803syphilis ship
>>11229168It does.
>>11227517it’s just pointless autism and it means nothing. recent releases still reuse “2.0” parts.
>>11229237if it means nothing, is ss4 goku a 2.0?
DF's broly resurfaced
another kong/bd vegeta variant
>>11229333Is it the same size as the SHF or is it bigger like the Kong release?
>>11229333Too late. Already on the kong train.
>>11229456It's a direct clone of the Bandai version.
>>11229430DBS broly and a metallic Cell Saga Super Saiyan version, fuckin' mint.
>>11229468Isn't he a little too big?
>>11229803
>>11229803>>11229807He is too big. Goku's hair is a bit under the nipple in the chart, the ultimate Gohan's hair is only a bit above the waist.
>>11229879Yeah Broly's size wasn't really an issue with the Z Release. He just looks like shit lol.
>>11229918You're just jealous.
>>11229936I don't know of what that could pertain to. The Kong one is too big, but he's sculpted a thousand times better. It's just a weird overcompensation to include for me.
>>11229468can't wait, got all 3 ordered.
>>11229468EW, he's got that same thing as Kid Buu where there are neck flaps
>>11229807Damn King Vegeta is a big guy, why his son is such a manlet?
>>11230621Queen Vegeta must've been a shortstack.
I got bored and did some research to see what the top 10 most valuable figures were:>1. SDCC 2011 Goku>2. SDCC 2016 Broly>3. SDCC 2014 Vegeta>4. SDCC 2018 Broly>5. Great Ape Vegeta>6. Original Release Broly>7. NYCC 2022 Broly>8. Burter & Guldo>9. Recoome>10. Porunga
>>11230965>Have all of the non event release ones + the Vegeta Feels good manI don't plan to sell them but it's cool to know. I'm actually moving all of my figures (from one closet in the house to another unfortunately) and I'm blown away by how many I have at this point. I have almost every release minus insignificant recolors and a few recent ones I've had to temporarily pass on.
>>11231004>and I'm blown away by how many I have at this pointSame. I only had the 1.0 SS Goku and Piccolo for years until I got back to collecting around SRoE. Now that 2 has turned into 104........

>>11232688You know, I don't remember the arc where Bulma became a tatted up back alley whore, but I wouldn't put it past Toriyama.
>>11232688Is this the fan fic Bulma Goku fucks?
There's a new poll from the Tamashii Nations DB display asking what figure people want to be rereleased next
