>>11924662Is that SomecallmeJohnny?
>>11924662Paint that Vegetas face brown and put him in a tanning booth
got god gokuhe really needs an upgrade kit for faces, half of these look like super saiyan faces with the god eyes slapped on
>>11924764
>>11924659I might cap super buu
Why a general now? Show something new.
slow
>>11925156funny how glorp mind raped you enough to finally pay attention to that. God damn you faggots are so insufferable
>>11925175we knew this shit since the first waves of vietnam figure, no need to have your schizo shit here
>>11925199sure thing faggot and thats why you kept shilling that slop
>>11925175you talking in third person now lil gup?
>>11925243you sound like you'd suck glorps dick
apparently theres some QC paint issue sdbh vegito blue kaioken being sold for 30$, seems like a good deal if you need parts
>>11925255you think a lot about that kinda thing huh, lil gup
>>11925395What is wrong with you? Why do you attack everyone on this board?
>>11925210the db line is so shit these days I stopped getting any new shf
I havent got anything new for a while. I skipped Bardock and still in the fence about 13. It's mostly because I'm out of space and don't see the point in buying stuff I can't display.I did just recently get a ZL Broly though and the MP Vegettos.Do you guys recommend getting the other brolys? The earings are such a pain in the ass.
Time to ex communicado 2 more 2.0 figures. MP vegetto is great. Who else is doing him and do we think they'll be one better?
Still bugs me how tall vitoforge made goku black. I see they are doing a re-release with single jointed knees which looks shorter. What other options are there (other than the dimensiona, which i also dont like)?
>>11925670Where's the best place to order the ZL Brolys? I don't do much 3rd party stuff but these look great
>>11925739Ali
>>11925739Yeah. Same, Ali. That's where I got mine from. Will probably grab the purple and battle damage ones as well along with the blue head.
>>11925748Is that where I'm gonna have to end up getting this >>11921204
>>11925781post a good seller for the bardock if u find one. I need him
>>11925781https://www.gyztoys.com/ there's a site ripping off 5K who has it
>>11925785woof they're expenisve
>>11925792Yeah but this is kinda comparable to other sites. It matches Ali, and this https://m.kowkistoy.com/products/pre-sale-sai-spirit-workshop-sw02-burdock-uncle-dock site doesn't have free shipping
>>11925793I may wait because they say q4 of 2027 .
>>11925796Yeah isn't that strange, the other site says Q4 2026Are you just gonna do Ali?
>>11925800maybe, I'll look later today. Gundamnits listing doesn't show up for me on my phone or computer and 5k hasn't had any new preorders in a bit so eh. I guess I'll have to.
>>11925802Well let me know, they got NS Studio X Dimensionia Demonic Blue Mechanism Doll too and for some reason they got this really pitiful stacking discount but it still makes it comparable to other sites
>>11925802>Gundamnits listing doesn't show up for me on my phone or computerYou probably didnt buy enough on their site. iuts retarded, i know. It shows up fine on my end.
One day.
>>11925842just 200 bucks. I always preferred 5k for their point system. I get lots of my best figures for half off.
>>11925842It really feels like we shouldn't support Gundamnits at all There's gotta be something else
>>11925802>>11925842>>11925853Gundammit doesn't have a listing for ZL Broly. They might have at one point but I really don't recall it showing up there and it's my primary site.I got mine on Omnime, but I did have to get the blue head on ANOTHER 5k knockoff site called Lanesra that actually did ship it pretty damn fast, only took like a week for me to see it in the mail (before they announced the reissues that i also ordered on omnime, just incase)
>>11925856we're talking about bardock
>>11925858oh. yeah I ordered my Bardock from Gundammit and they do still have him
>>11925861yeah we know, follow the thread next time
>>11925856>>Gundammit doesn't have a listing for ZL Broly.
just stop posting gundamnit, no one should use them anyway
>>11925868I've been using them for my transformers for years but maybe I don't get it since I don't buy 3P Dragonball.
>>11925868This is true for all new customers. The "we won't show you everything unless you give us enough money" is evil and shouldn't be supported at all. I don't see how anyone can defend it cause other sites don't have this issue and everything they sell can be found on other sites.But if you're like this >>11925871 then you can see everything so it doesn't matter.
>>11925868>>11925872This. They have pretty shitty practices but theyre chinese so eh. Like if you intend to buy a LOT sure but to access the figures you want and having to jump through loops is retarded
>>11925843Monkey paw will curl and we'll get those outfits or their looks from Superhero instead of Buu Saga.
>>11925872>The "we won't show you everything unless you give us enough money" is evilCan you expand on this? Only shady thing they do that I can think of is sometimes not show the final price of figures.
>>11925866Why is the ssj ver in stock anyway comapred to the rest? I grew up watching the second movie only so i may get that as i dont remember the base form showing in it.>>11925887You have to spend a good amount of money or buy like 150 worth of points for their inventory to show. During the summer, i was the guneia pig in the thread and bought that many points to test it out for everyone if you can see the past threads since an anon couldnt see the blueguy in stock from the ginyu force.
>>11925890Waaait, really? Is this just for these DB figures? I don't think I've spent that much there but I'm pretty sure I see all these DB figures cosplaying Monkey King and what not when they show up. Didn't realize that was a thing.
>>11925887>Can you explain why it's shitty that you have to spend money to actually see if they have something you want, and if they don't you just spent money for nothing See >>11925890
>>11925863no, i'm going to shit it up even more with glorp level shit. i'm the joker now.
>>11925866every other Broly you can find by searching Broly.>might get a second coming figure since they have him
>>11925890the others are getting reissues, second coming ssj isn't for some odd reason
>>11925897Is second coming broly just not popular? I bought it since i grew up on that movie while the other broly forms he never fought in.
>>11925784Asked 5K if they would get him, didn't really get the response I was looking forAt the very least that anon who keeps saying they've publicly said they're going to stop selling DB3P is a liar, cause if that was announced they would have just said so
>>11926023>At the very least that anon who keeps saying they've publicly said they're going to stop selling DB3P is a liarthey're not, it was on the ZT ssj4 broly post explaining why it was only up for a weekend and if you haven't noticed they didn't put up the new HM gohans when every little corner shop did at a very similar time
>>11925748>>11925753Anything in particular to look out for on there to avoid getting scammed, or is it pretty straight forward?
>>11926141as long as they get me the fucking MP Vegitos I've had with them forever
alright it's Vegeta day I guessI already have 3 from Blackhole and it looks like these guys aren't doing a darker clothed one. What are you getting anons?
>>11926187Recently bought and reviews for me. Most Chinese close shop and don't last long before they reopen with a new name so and sort of longevity is what I look for.
Now that Bandai has made all the parts required how long till we get a new ee Vegito on a 4.0 body? I could see it being next year.
>>11926187>avoid getting scammedUnless the seller is sending you a box of rocks, it is almost impossible to get scammed on Ali. Worst thing that has ever happened to me is the seller will just sit on the preorder and not send out the item, but whenever that happens you can just cancel, get a refund, and then buy from another store. In some cases, like the Buu Saga Gohan, this actually works to your advantage as you can cancel unshipped orders and then re-order from a different seller if you find another store that has the item cheaper. (Was able to save about 30 dollars on the two pack with coupons and a cheaper seller, so cancelled my initial order from the first seller.)
>>11926266>Can't even see them on gundamitIncredibly stupid sales tactic. Regardless, I'm fine with my Black Hole Toys Vegeta.
>>11926276probably not until they redo goku black arc for dbs
>>11926266getting the two battle damaged ones so I can switch the arms and legs so one is super battle damaged and one is slightly damaged, makes them both different from my two BHTs
>>11926284shitty crop job but this is the idea
>>11926284link where you buy from
>>11926322gundamit just like >>11926266gyz isn't too bad on this one though, maybe $5 more on the individual ones and $10 on the bundlescan probably find it on ali for around the same if you coupon max
>>11926141Post the post
>>11926388they deleted it, another anon posted what they said a month or two ago and since that post they've not dropped any dragon ball 3rd party pre-orders, if they still were the HM gohans would've been on there last week, probably would have also opened up preorders for NS ssj3s since they said they'd think about stocking it if NS saiyan saga goku was decent enough, the only dragon ball post on there is for the Air shirt kit
>>11926402>they deleted itOf course they did
>>11926402It is pretty strange that guy asked them and they didnt give a response but you're going full "trust me bro" over it insisting they did
>>11926425>>11926427why would someone lie about what they posted? I buy stuff from 5k, other than gundamit they're usually my second go to, I remember the post, and since that they've been avoiding DB outside of fulfilling ordersit would be nice if they kept doing them but they've been strangely inactive since that post when it comes to db, the only other thing I could see happening is they're doing what they were doing with DF and are "reselling" the figures once they come outlike you can check their Instagram, its pretty wiped out (kong black's in-stock was also up i just didn't notice it at first), not even the anime mythos/beast deities/bloodfang posts stayed up and they still have omega and broly ssj4's second wave pre orders up
>>11926425nigga 5k deletes all their dragon ball 3p posts
>>11926440yeah its pretty obvious 5k is feeling the bandai/toei heat and wants to drop out of DB stuff entirely after releasing toys that actually have official license approval lol, one thing I cant wrap my head around is who exactly Jason ko is, he owns 5ktoys and also works at kong/bd but anything more than that is a mystery.
>>11926447I do wonder if it has to do with customs, I heard recently the KOs for jjk toji were getting sent back if you didn't pick AliExpress's official shipping or something? would explain why omnime has been shipping directly from china recently
>>11926459omnime usually gives you an option between shipping from china or the usa warehouse
Finally got my NS Gokus in and they are some fucking bullshit. The good: >Looks great and love the faces>the 'blank' or 'low res' head is sort of charming and cooler than the mono-color animal heads that other 3P use>the upper half of the figure has no issues but...The bad: >the bottom half of the figure is absolute dog shit>left leg was super tight and required some shock oil to get it moving>right leg is somehow even MORE bullshit and the thigh 'connector' was either not glued or or the plastic is bad...because any movement causes it to 'break' >the silver lining is that I was able to (sort of) fix it...but basically any movement will cause it to re-break...so I guess my glossy kaioken is just going to be stuck in the same pose foreverJoint/QC issues are super dissapointing because the figure DOES look fantastic, but they do make this figure feel like one of the cheaper 3P releases I have gotten in a minute.
>>11926781Thanks for sharing. Mine are due any day now. The QC is why im on the fence with these new majin vegetas. They may suck as well.
>>11926781>The bad:>>the bottom half of the figure is absolute dog shit>>left leg was super tight and required some shock oil to get it moving>>right leg is somehow even MORE bullshit and the thigh 'connector' was either not glued or or the plastic is bad...because any movement causes it to 'break'>>the silver lining is that I was able to (sort of) fix it...but basically any movement will cause it to re-break...so I guess my glossy kaioken is just going to be stuck in the same pose foreverthis seems really common, maybe I'll cancel mine then...
>>11926277>>11926268Alright. Got the triple set with the bonus head ordered. Thanks for the advice!
>>11926781I'm convinced my future gohan's right leg will snap off at some point in the future, it's just bad design on the 4.0 legs. I had a games begin come in that broke in that way too.
>>11925670dude how did you get the halo to float like that? Magnets? Also I recommend getting the ss broly body. the heads for it are angle merchants, but the body is really good and makes for a good battle damaged base z broly if you swap the heads. Also are you the guy who painted their ZT broly's heads to be greener?
>>11926878Is it too tight? you can just oil it.
>>11926890no it's super wobbly but not particularly loose, which is how that games begin goku was acting before it just fell apart
>>11926898No sense thickening up pegs then eh?
>>11926878I had thought I saw someone post similar in the previous thread and looks like I was correct: >>11920015Exact same leg, exact same issue. I'll probably snag some super glue in the next couple of days to see if that fixes the figure.
are these really +-$50 in japan atm?
>>11926930I'm still waiting on 2 I ordered. If they aren't worth anything aftermarket now I was planning on just keeping one in box anyway and displaying the other.
>>11926930Yeah. The hype has well and truly died for me on this. Not even interested anymore. It wouldn't fit in my anime display anyway. I just customized a copy of the original. Easy pass.
>>11926889>dude how did you get the halo to float like that? Magnets?The blue just hides the stick. I have just ordered the ssj broly so thanks for the heads up. I havent repainted the zt so must be another anon. Unless it was a headswap you saw me do.
>>11926930ya know sometimes I forget if Japan collect 3P or not but if his price dipped THAT much it's either because he's brown or they're also buying 3P making him a bit redundant
Oh Champa, my beloved, when will you get figure justice?
>>11927002I doubt they're buying 3P given the way they shit themselves over piracy and modding
>>11926936is that where the SF5 line was made? that's the last figsharts i ever bought (almost a decade ago)
>>11926930Fighter of rage stole all interest I had of this figure so I'm not surprised to see this
Fighter of rage 3p copy when?
>>11927144DBtoys is supposedly, they're the ones who did full power frieza
>Vegeta going on clearancecould this affect future Vegeta figs
It begins
>>11927301selling & scalping the chance ticket, it begins?
>>11927278>shit vietnamslop even the shill didn't buy flopsoh noooo
>>11927278i wish i could find SHFs at my local walmart.
>>11927586you 100% can
>>11927627any time ive gone in the last like 3 months i havent seen any.
>>11927629They don't put them with the rest of the toys, they're usually in with the video games. You should see like 10 copies of Saiyan Raised on Earth and a handful of Vegeta's, Games Begin and Kind Hearted probably sold out.
>>11927636No i've not seen any. I know the section you're talking about. They have a spot for SHFs, but its always empty. Not even SROE or 2.0 Vegetas.
>>11927674oh, interesting. I wonder if anyones ever seen them at Ross/Ollies
At laaast
>>11927788I hope his QC is good.
>>11927811Its incredible
>>11927788waow that's early
>>11927818I wonder if this guy will be easier to get next year?
>>11927278I kinda think at this point Clearance doesn't mean anything. Marvel Legend Endgame figures, that aren't even meant to be out yet, are being clearanced at some Wal-Marts or whatever.
>>11927918*DoomsdayI don't follow capeshit sorry
Looking for the full power Frieza cut in half 3rd party add on set. What company name/product number do I need to search to find that?
>>11927818Nice. Mine is about to ship from Hobby Genki, I was on the fence, but he actually looks nice and isnt just another repaint.>>11928086Search HM Frieza on aliexpress. Its still available.
Freezer!
>>11928118>FreezerI know wich country you hail fromAlso isnt Mecha Frieza too big ?
>>11927818It's way better than I expected!
>>11928118I'm excited for the eventual new golden Freeza. I kinda hope they do a metallic ee version eventually too, same with mecha freeza. I dont mind the flat metal look but I'd kill for a metallic version.
>>11928118>FREEEEZEEEEER!>W-wha-
>>11928118I kind of want a new 1st form frieza with a smaller head. I don't like his super proportions
>>11928118so glad to finally have a complete lineup.funny that mecha has such a fat noggin. 1st form, too, but at least that's actually a different form.
>>11928118>3rd form frieza mui dodging all criticism because 1st and mecha frieza have big headsLmao
>>119281182, 4 and FP are the best here1, 2 and mecha kinda suck.
>>11928234>2>the best here>2>kinda suckHuh?Just kidding, I imagine you meant 1,3 and mecha kinda suck.I do think 3 is fine, though. Not as good as 2 and FP, and I get people don't like the scale, but I do think it's overhated.Mecha kinda does nothing for me.4 I don't know yet.I always loved 1 for coming with the pod. But it's sad they ruined the faces for them from WIP to final product because of Toriyama's input
>>11928118Mecha being larger is even weirder when you consider he's supposed to go with King Cold. Simply making him smaller (or even just the head smaller) would've sold the size difference more.
>>11928118I really want a smaller head for first form now. Don't care about mecha. Shit form.
ZZT SSj4 came in today, slightly ahead of my battle damaged burst limit versionI know I owe someone a picture of 13 doing some dick punching here too I'll get around to it this weekend, probably tonight. I think Captain Planet needs to be knocked around a bit.
>>11928308>I know I owe someone a picture of 13 doing some dick punching here tooYes im still waiting for it.
>>11928310tried it, can't do it without stands that I don't feel like getting out and fucking with for an hour. Rip.
>>11928316If my Zarbon can grip Cui neck I'm sure 13 can hold Goku leg. It's all in the balance
>>11928332Zarbon apparently has tighter joints than 13, his arm droops when he's holding someone else
other than blue and the new journey goku, I've had the rest of the 4.0 gokus and god is the fucking worst, who ever made those shoulders should be fired, journey goku also looks jank as fuck because the skirt causing gaps and the neck "peg" being the same as daima piccolo so he's probably second worst especially for the pricekind hearted is the best one simple for being the most accurate and least jank, only one I've thought I'd want more faces because I like him not because I have a desire to fix the shit bandai decided to put on their heads
>>11928332Actually just got a monster Zarbon. Fucking love the faces and range even has the good shoulder pads Dogly has. Happy i dudnt bother with the base form version.
>>11928338Journey goku is fun
>>11928350Yeah, he's great. Normal Zarbon is still good, for some reason the shoulder pads aren't as annoying as they're with Cui or Dodoria>>11928334He lack the maximum power
>>11928118unfortunately, they have to redo 1st form frieza. And Mech Afrieza should use better proportions
>>11928359this figure would be a 10/10 if it weren’t for the legs looking kinda stubby. i love everything else about the sculpt.
>>11928133>inb4 new first form Frieza announced without his armor
>>11928474sure, i love the colors of the movie
>>11928631That was honestly my favorite part of the movie.I would love seeing saiyan just doing their thing and conquering planets
>>11928433>this figure would be a 10/10 if it weren’t for the legsAgreed, if he could raise his leg more to do an axe kick he would be perfect
>>11928662Honestly seeing skinny saiyans and saiyans with sniper rifles was fucking stupid. I want saiyans to remain as brutes with big muscles who likes to fight
>>11928665>Not only is it a wasted slop but looks like shit too.Who hurt you, bro?
>>11928665>use at least the faces on the regular gokunah it has its own peg system
>>11928118FINALLY secured mine after release in HG, seems everything is pretty obtainable if I wait, unless we are talking crazy exclusives.
Someone at Amazon really thought "yeah, this is okay to ship to somebody". Either they got too many old ladies working at the local warehouse or somebody down there is stealing Figuarts.
>>11928732It's a regular release. It's not like it'll be difficult to get in a month when it hits stateside. That's why I don't bother importing regular releases anymore. It makes zero fucking sense to pay an extra $30 for shipping when, if I just wait a month or two, I can buy the damn thing on Amazon for zero shipping. It's just not worth it.
>>11928751amazon workers do not inspect anything they ship, they have insane quotas and dont give a fuck so long as the barcode is the works
>>11928765Im hoping this is true for all might and shibuya yuji. Missed PO's for both and they havent gone back up yet.
>>11928631I'd get that frieza too, desu. I kinda like the look.
>>11928787Reminds me of his default model in Budokai 1
>>11928773The box was fucking open too! Didn't have any issues until they built a warehouse in my time.
>>11928751did one of his faces explode in box
>>11928751Why would they also throw in base daima Bejita faces? Seems like they are losing money on this. Just get a new one though I'm assuming this is just fake. >It's on the broly Bejita dark grey armor bodyLmao
>>11928751funnily got more worth for your money off that because the body
>>11928819Yeah I did a return and they're sending me a replacement.>>11928806>>11928828It was literally missing parts. I think someone was stealing parts, tried to mod the figure, then tried to sell it to Amazon. And to be clear, I did order it brand new directly from Amazon, no sellers.
>>11928819if you look close they actually put the Daima shoes in there too. I think they just wanted a cheaper all in one dream vegeta or somehing
>>11928751Happened to me too. Used an old body and kept the new heads in there. I only wanted a cheap second one for the new body so it was the complete opposite of what I needed lol. And one was a cheap SS Goku and it came as a Funko Pop one. Two warehouse deal Figuarts in a row within a week stopped me from getting more Vegetas or Gokus on there.
>>11928751Anon, the random black guy/3rd world migrant/mentally challenged individual that packs these things isn't going to be A.) paying close enough attention to notice something like this, and B.) wouldn't even be aware of what the issue was even if he did notice it. You give these people way too much credit.
>>11928854>the random black guy/3rd world migrant/mentally challenged individualKek
>>11928751Knowing Amazon they'll give you a full refund and let you keep the thing. Win win
>>11928751>Dumb fuck actually lost money on this because of the Broly bodyThats actually so fucking funny.
>>11928925Our hero
>>11928925No Nuts November
>>11928837It's just like why not sell the Vegeta body for 40 and get the figure without stealing it from work which is a crime that could land you in jail. Like he should have at the very least gone to a Walmart or Target and done it there instead. Would have been way less of an issue if he was caught. Like they could easily trace who did this using cameras and using the shipping timeline and press charges. Just way to risky.
>>11928765I don't live in US, it's still cheaper for me to get all my import shit into a private warehouse and then ship at some point than use local means, it has gotten more expense though. I think I will sometimes use Amazon if I have no other way, and it ALMOST evens outs with the free shipping.
>>11928925I thought I had seen something somewhere during the promos
>>11929068Tamashii made a stop motion but I'm pretty sure they skipped over the punch.
>>11929093>they skipped over the punch.Yes. I complained about it soon after the stop motion went up.
>>11928925holy face gap
>>11929099double dicked
>>11929099bothers me that neither of the effects are purple.
So how do i ensure i get one of the reissue Games beginkus? I want to see if the QC is better on this batch.
dont respond to bait.
>>11928927>$110I got lucky and found one with the tonsenarts god head and faces for $75 a while ago
>>11929262>posting someone ham handing the legs and not the shoulders that untab if you move then even an inch or the fact the arm can't even swivel because of the shirt piece on the shoulderthis is how I know you don't own these because there are legitimate issues especially with that figure but because you're a drone you've likely not seen these issues because for some reason everyone is pretending this was the best one
>>11929267Just saying the body alone could probably sell for 45 or 50. Just sell it and buy the 35$ ssj Bejita instead of stealing it from your factory job. Just seems so fucking stupid and risky.
>>11929190https://enchroma.com/pages/test
>>11929262Why buy something to break it? is this what rich people do?
>>11929284Look at that keyboard and the shit smear on the leg. This is not a rich person.
>>11928308Fuck you. I want that captain planet and can't find it for sale anywhere!
>>119292883P has been awful lately. You also have way more issues than Bandai with 0 customer support. You could easily get new legs from Bandai to replace the broken GodKu's once the cheap plastic 80+ dollar bootleg breaks youre just fucked.
>>11929262>that fucking spring pin crackCan Bandai either get rid of them or use some higher quality plastic instead?This shit is absolutely rampant on Robot Damashiis and Soul of Chogokin figs.
>>11929288Tf were you doing with that leg? Why force it inward so much?
>>11929283That's more of a pinkish red, though. A magenta. The Super version has an outright red-red and the original has a faded pink.
fight Fight FIGHT!
>>11929398Ah, the old elbow lock. Classic.
>>11928118>>11929099Anyone got comparison pics of this one vs the original? I'm almost rooting for this thing to have Vietnam issues because I'm happy with the ones I have, the improvement is hardly noticable just from looking at pics and thus I won't be tempted to buy it. Lol.
>>11929446Besides the better aesthetics the old tail really sucked so that part alone is prob worth.
>>11929446It's like a 35-38 dollar figure.Has a way better sculpt and no asymmetrically sculpted torso, way better faces, and the gems are in line with the other Frieza forms.
>>11929500he looks better but yeah its not as drastic an upgrade as some of the other updates
>>11929487>>11929500How's the ab crunch. That's probably the thing that has me most curious about it.
>>11928118I really hope to god I can grab 2nd and 3rd some day. Holy fuck what was I thinking in not getting them
>>11929506Underwhelming from what I can tell.And like literally all other Frieza figs, it has the gem smudging possibility.
>>11929487>>11929500Thanks. Yeah man I mean it looks better, but honestly to me it is like nothing. It's like when I see Digital Foundry videos where they are jizzing about the most minute settings to run a game. And yeah the tail is probably the main thing, that low one does suck.>It's like a 35-38 dollar figure.I've told myself this many times in the past and almost every time I end up downsizing my collection or packing some up to create display space the $35 dollar figures are the ones I end up getting rid of/liking the least. The ones I have left are the Super Hero Piccolo (because he only has two figures and this one works to display one without the turban), the old budget Frieza, and that Lowest Born Saiyan Goku that was a US target/walmart exclusive(IMO the best Base Goku there is). If I ever see this thing when I'm at target or whatever I'm sure I kind of know I'll end up getting it, but it's just not doing that much for me. Not going to go out of my way for it.
>>11929535The difference is pretty obvious tbqh.
>>11928234>>11928254Frieza by far has the best figures of any character in the line. With the exception of the Gold one that is too puny they are absolute bangers. The fact that the 1.0 Final Form still holds up kind of attests to this as well. Other than Beerus and the Androids theres no other 1.0 that still holds up.I would have loved 3 to actually be the proper size, but even at a retarded scale it's still fun as hell to play with and look at on the shelf.
>>11929535If the old one was anything to go by this new one will be around for a long, long time getting reisussed a ton. You'll have plenty of chances to get it on sale for less than the 38 from somewhere like Amazon or something. Something the old one could do is be crossarmed and have the halo on for ToP. Having 2 of these Frieza is less bad than having like 2 of the budget SS Vegeta where the old one really serves no purpose if you have dangerous peide.
>>11929556I'd say you can definitely notice that 1.0 aged quite severely. It's been obvious since we got the other forms, really. And it got even more painfully obvious when we got Mecha and Full Power.I get your point, though. It held up for fairly long. Can't say the same for Golden.
>>11929567There were actually pretty big differences from release to release of the OG Final Form Friezas. The first one also had the rock platform and plenty of other extra stuff. Pretty sure he had stands, and the beam effect and maybe two tails and stuff.Second one had the halo and some other stuff, third one was the stripped down welfare release, but it still wasn't a "bad" figure. I think the early one still might be more accurate to his look from the actual fight in the Namek arc, whereas the newest remake is a bit more of the "modern" look they give him. The very first release also probably had the most unique sort of metallic purple with an almost glittery-look for his purple parts. All the newer Frieza forms have a more dull purple, but they're all at least uniform, I guess.>>11929568Second form is still probably like a top 5 figure in the whole line. Third form's only real problem is that I wish he (and actually, monster Zarbon too) had bigger, beefier legs.
>>11929568Anyone holding on to the old one is gona have it permanently like this.
general, no funny faces
>>11929596Really sad to see no funny faces.He looks stellar, but come on - it's Beerus.>they give him an effect, but it's for Goku>it's another Kamehameha charging effectOh, fuck off.
>>11929596No goofy faces is consistent with his vibe in the new TV series I guess. The knees look good in that pic.
>>11929601>beeru's hand turns into michael jackson when he hakaisWhat did they mean by this?
>>11929601cant they just do soft plastic like jada for the belllegit i fucking hate having to pull a figure in half just to chance it
>>11929601>No goofy faces is consistent with his vibe in the new TV series I guess.Kinda but not really. He's already been plenty goofy in DBS Beerus. Just not in such a way that it immediately kills his ominous nature.I hope we get a Whis that gives him one or two extra faces that are more fun. Even a cocky one like picrel would be fun. Something outside of the norm.
>>11929601I'm just disappointed there's no yawning face, because it doubled over as an eating face which was pretty useful.
>>11929601This is probably going to be a skip for me. I just don't feel like this is worth upgrading over my EE version.
>>11929500his legs are too buff, sure he fits super but in Z he's pretty smoothed out and his torso's just too cut up to match his elegant shapehe's not awful but he's very clearly a pretool for golden
>>11929595The no crossed arms is big.It's a cool accessory, but I swear that shit degrades the figures over time if your switching it in and out. I've had a Vegeta thats arms became dangly as fuck and I saw some nigger on youtube point this out as well that he hates it. and My Piccolos normal arms never want to fully click in either. I normally decide right from the beginning if I want to display someone crossed or not. Switch as infrequently as possible.
>>11929637I honestly never use crossed arms. I've only heard it cause problems for people - plus it just kinda looks your character's arms into a singular pose - which is duh, but the point is it isn't all that thrilling once you get past the novelty.With the exception of maybe like a Vegeta or Vegito who will cross their arms and then use their legs to attack.Jiren also taught me to not trust crossed arms, lol.
>>11929601>>11929612as much as I said the Frieza improvements weren't that big a deal, with Beerus it's an even smaller difference. Beerus is pretty much the only thing I really liked about Super and his design is really cool so I don't mind having a 2nd one of him though. One to do an action pose or fight someone. and one to chill with Whis. I would much rather have an SS3 Goku to pair with him though than the red hair shit.
>>11929637Was thinking when the new base Vegeta comes out I'm gona have one permanently cross armed since its the same body as the SS one. Can just switch the heads depending on which you want doing what. I don't really like switching the boots either so just switched to the yellow tip when I got it and kept it like that.
>>11929601i’m really looking forward to this. never bought the OG beerus or the EE because i knew they’d make an updated version one day.
>>11929637I tried to fit the crossed arms on the new Vegeta once and then decided never ever again.
>>11929645I got the OG, and I was planning to get rid of it for this one, but while I'm excited for this new one, I might keep it because it has more goofy faces.At least until I see whether they'll add more Beerus faces some other way.
>>11929652Probably put one with Whis if they eventually redo him.
>>11929659That's what I'm currently banking on. That they'll make a new Whis and pair at least one new head, maybe two for Beerus with him. I'd really like a flicking hand too, though.But until I see such a Whis (maybe at Tamashii Nations in November?) I'm going to keep my 1.0 Beerus alongside the new Beerus. Just have the old Beerus be the goofy chill one. With the right pose, I don't need to see his knees, anyway.
Where are you supposed to put the speech bubble on the stand for Genkidamatsuri Goku?
>>11929685>You retardThe HA gohan should be coming out soon right? My fucking ali order from Golden Idea Toy Store redirects to an error so I hope my order has no issue.
>>11929685>>11929686its close but his mouth isn't open, haz is close too but his eyes are wrong
>>11929608This
>>11929685>3.0 contential plate kneesEasy skip atleast the heads are sold separately.
>>11929596>>11929601I like the windswept sash. Its more of a combat Beerus than a dicking around one. Doesnt even come with the little poking finger hand.
>>119297393.0 is just as bad. My Trunks had stupid loose knees. The gapping in the 3.0 is also terrible. 3p should really move away from that ugly shit so people actually buy their 80 figures.
>>11929601I've sold off all my Super shit, but this Beerus is tempting.
There, that's better.
>>11929601wish I had gotten the old one now, oh well
>>11929817you gonna nag at everyone who buys a product this thread is about?
>>11929740It should've came with that considering he taps the opening screen to make his name appear in the title. They were probably told to make a Beerus without knowing too much of the specifics of what they did on the show, but even then that hand was on the old one.
>>11929831No flicking hand either.I really hope we get a Whis that gives us more Beerus stuff, or something.This new Beerus technically comes with more than the original, but it feels so.. default. And Beerus isn't a default character.
>>11929601I hate it
Who else enjoyed watching the 'My Bulma' again for the 5th 6th time :)?Also got NS Gokus in. They are great. Minor gripe about the sleeves, they are more annoying than on the official. Otherwise a solid release. Just don't know why they all have to be saiyan saga.Guess they will have 3 Namek ones coming next. Exactly the same just all with Go Kanji.
>>11929844Still remember getting this DF kaioken nearly 10 years ago and it falling apart in my YT reviews. Good times. Crazy its taken so long to get an upgrade.
>>11929769Trunks has 3.0 legs and they suck. 4.0 is the future.
>>11929738Can someone explain to me why you guys skipped straight to 3.0 and 4.0? 1.0 is obvious, 2.0 starts with warrior awakening, figures like Cooler and King Piccolo are more like 2.5 and what we have now with soft goods is 3.0, or am I getting something wrong? There wasn't any leap to jump straight into 4.0 but that being said, I'm not actively researching this stuff. I want to know why this became the accepted term.
>>11929844The shirts on these look terrible Bandai flops again.
>>119298693.0 started around Jiren if I remember right.
>>11929871So 3.0 is basically just 2.0 with the hip flaps removed? I seriously do not understand the naming convention here.
>>11929872There isn't any actual consistency. It varies from person to person. I consider the most recent Goku releases to be 3.0s. Those figures introduced a good amount of new articulation from the hips, to the knees, to the neck, to the shoulders. But again, it varies from anon to anon.
>>11929875Okay, so I'm not the only one. I mean, I get that figures like Jiren had double ball pegs, better butterfly joints that went both ways, hinges in the ankles and such but I don't see them as much different from 2.0, on the surface 2.0 and 3.0 look about the same. To me 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 are the major style leaps.
>>11929875most people say Martialist is a 3.0 and Games Begin is a 4.0Let's kick ourselves while we're down and say MP Vegito is a 4.5
>>11929879MP Vegetto is more like 2.5 because of the double ball peg and double-jointed knees, numbers up don't mean an upgrade. Though you could argue it's 3.5 if you count 2.5s as 3.0
>>119298793rd party doesn't count.
>>11929869Reality is TGB body is 3.0.The Super Hero Gohan engineering never made it to wide enough distribution for the entire line to be considered a generation unto its own. Meanwhile, the TGB body is already being used for every Goku, Krillin is already adapted to it, and so is Tien. And to a lesser extent Beerus.
>>11929896>Super Hero Gohan engineering never made it to wide enough distribution for the entire line to be considered a generation unto its ownThe only Goku that is between warrior awakening and games begin is probably just ssj4 one.
>>11929870That's the neat thing.They're 3p.Now you can switch it up and pretend you always liked them.
but how many of you are gonna waste cash for a cone figure with zero movement, i don't see bandai coming with soft goods to fix his problem, and they are really not inclined to try soft plastic to create a skirt
>>11929935idk desu. we'll see when it happens.ideally he'd have soft goods or at least softer swap-out dress pieces that are wider and swindswept
>>11929844looks awesome. Are the heads the same as goku + gohan set or lowest born? They seem familiar.>>11929935they'll either give it splits like Zoro, or we'll get mismatched plastic top with soft goods bottom like shf jotaro.
>>119298691.0 was old box, 2.0 was warrior awakening and new box. The whole dynamic movable shoulder thing being stamped on the box with GB Goku is about as clear of a division from the people making the figures themselves. To get to that point there were various things along the way they tried out which included, different hips, knees, shoulders, soft torso, ankles etc. Even between Super Hero Gohan and Beast they had different torsos. Then Orange Piccolo had the newer style pants flaps. If you had to number them 3.0 started with GB Goku when they settled in on it.
>>11929935Whis is not a character I'd ever shell out money for.
>>11929979*clanks bottles*hear ye hear ye here's your 5005th Goku, Vegeta and Vegito from Tamashii and/or third parties.
>>11929896if you look at strongest man Krillin he is the exact same body as Martialist
>>11929935I already did
>>11930012I was talking the newest Krillin.
>>11930017my point stands, Strongest Krillin and Martialist are exactly the same. It's just sized up.
>>11930024https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DYTCXYLH
>>11929996>5005th Goku, Vegeta and Vegito from Tamashii and/or third parties.I would buy literally every Goku in a silly niche outfit from one single promotional piece of artwork before I would ever consider buying one of that queer.
>>11930027sweet, I'm going to get like 6 lol
>>11930029i got 5 myself. I have too much stuff for them and am still trimming down
>>11930019Yeah, but that's what?1 Super Hero Gohan1 Trunks1 Krillin1 Orange Piccolo?vs 5 Goku, 1 Tien, 1 Krillin, 1 Kid Gohan. If we count Daima, there's also all the two Diama adult Gokus and Piccolo. The new Z Piccolo will probably also use them.
>>11930052I count Daima and i hope to god Z Piccolo will be good
>>11930053I hope so too. Wasn't a big fan of Daima Piccolo. Felt too.. plated. But I'm definitely all in for a new Z Piccolo.
>>11930047Do you have Pan and Chi Chi?
>>11929678bump
>>11930061no to both
>>11930062You should be able to plug the speech bubble into a stand arm which (I think?) plugs into the stand arm that supports the Goku. Not my pic, but pic related.
Any chance of Journey to the West Goku getting a U.S. release or should I just get one second hand?
>>11930337the book ones usually do don't they? if its cheaper than the $120 amazon Japan wanted it for maybe I'll get it but if not I'm just going to wait for DF
>>11929398Budokai 3 opening
>>11929686Huh it shipped last night. Itll be my first figure with the one joint leg so im curious of how itll hold up.
my GM goku black set is almost here, I'm curious if its LSSJ style since it looked like it was, which means being able to use the head on tons of pegs and can still use the new base form faces and not needing to deal with the cancer hinge(shf) or one specific peg(haz)
the fight between NS and BSM starts next week with NS dropping their ssj3 gokusBSM has been silent for about a month...what do we think?personally I'm getting the yellow version of both but I'm not sure which to get for an orange one
>>11931044oh yea ignore the heads on BSM those aren't theirs, they're instead doing a base form headalso noticed NS didn't add battle damage to his wrist bands
>>11930015When tf did z broly go ssj4
>>11931044BSM is a better body if you are extremely autistic about accuracy, i think the gi tears are pretty much 1:1 with the tapion and janemba movies while NS is inspired or kinda but not really following the designNS did a great job with the saiyan saga gokus and the ss3 hair looks great tho
>>11931057https://youtu.be/1CKqLQnVXAc
Is this figure worth getting or does it have major QC issues? I've seen mostly positive things about it, but when someone gets bad QC with it it's REALLY bad.
>>11931155games begin and blueku are the ones with most qc issues, base goku should be fine
>>11931155I wouldn't say major, but it has some QC roulette involved. Kindhearted Saiyan is one of the safer ones, though.In a vacuum, however? Without acknowledging the QC issues, he's definitely worth it.
>>11931155Idk, but I like the SROE hair sculpt more.
>>11931155mine was really solid, better than games begin and made the god I got feel like a bootleg
Am I the only one who got a perfect Godku? mine has no qc issues and poses very well
Someone spoonfeed me what the best Android/Cell saga Gohan is, I'm too lazy to do my own research.
>>11931237SDCC one, buy it now and send it to me.
>>11931237>kid gohan with long hairthe sh 4.0 one that will come out like next month>ssjsh 3.0 the warrior that surpassed goku>ssj2the previous gohan with hm ssj2 heads and custom battle damage piecesyou are going to get price raped if you try to buy the hm sets today but those are indeed the best pieces for a ssj2 gohan
>>11931155I have him, blue and games begin. The base and blue had no issues. The GB one I had to use some force to get the faceplates into the windy hair but not a big deal.
>>11931155Mine had fucked up paint scratches on the legs and shit all over it. I don't know how widespread that is, but all the official figs I've gotten so far this year have had awful QC and it pissed me off so I just left it in the box.
>>11931237This is a very nice doujin and should be canon. Imagine how strong their kid would be
>>11931237
>>11931155Kind hearted saiyan doesn't really have QC issues from what ive seen. I have him and its fine. Games begin and Goku Blue were the ones that went to shit.
anyone know how to do this kitbash? Or is it just the torso sitting on the waist without actually being slotted in?
>>11931422of course i forgot it.
>>11931423No idea if it works with games begin but it can work with df's 3.0 goku mold
>>11931046>>11931044can't tell if its the lighting or angle but the face seems a little worse than beforealso they pulled a DF and are suddenly speaking now that NS is coming out
ns studio
>>11931044I want to get a SS3 Goku, but the hair on these look a little excessive.
>>11931044NS won even over bandai simply for having better knees, back of the knee is gi colored so they even did it properly
>>11931793
more hints they'll do the whole Z fighters
>>11931803I am crossing my fingers they make Piccolo taller. The new Krillin will be interesting because the last one was really good.
>>11931803Someone casual walking by this will be like "hey the Piccolo is over there on the right". And why didn't they put the Tien up we already know what it looks like.
>>11931794Why does he have a cum stain on his sleeve?
>>11931803I can't wait for Krillin (Namek (Potential Unleashed))
>>11931811It'll be interesting if they actually update Krillin into the newer style with the single knees and torso. If they do he'll be the only one in the Z fighters line up going from that Super Hero Gohan/Future Trunks style body. Everyone else was being upgraded from 2.0s. The Trunks without the jacket is basically the the boy from the future rather than being completely redone. Maybe for Krillin they'll have something like picrel where it's basically head dlc.
>chiaotzu is $60 and has no base unlike gohanbandai....
>>11931942>>11931953
>>11931953>>11931954>no effect parts
>>11931956Sorry, bandai can't afford a translucent piece of plastic in this economy.
So the last base is definitely coming with Piccolo, right?
>>11931953>>119319548250 and 6600 yen after tax respectively, general release and in May. Along with Beerus they're spamming 3 figures in a month. The pace is really picking up now that the show is back.
>>11931970They do need to pick up the pace. They could release a new figure every single month and it would still take them years to get through all the character forms people want.
>>11931969So they did two of the bases with the first 2 then the next few didn't have one. At this point I'm guessing the last piece is with the final figure to bookend the set. Who it will be could be any of the remaining ones honestly. They could even put it with Yamcha and have him be the final figure.
>>11931970>they're spamming 3 figures in a month. The pace is really picking up now that the show is back.not just the anime, 3P has shown collectors have a bit more to spend than what they had to supply, they're very aware there's a bigger market out there than they had previously, also helps they're doing "collections" like the Z fighters and gokus
>>11931953IHATEEVERYTHING ABOUT YOU
I love collecting this line so fucking much.
>>11931953Has any 3P made an awesome edit Tien?
>>11931988We basically took 2025 off. It felt like nothing was coming out, just a monthly Daima figure. Tamashii's event is in 2 weeks and I wonder how many more figs they're gona show now that Beerus, Tien and Chaozu have all gone up.
>>11931953>>11931954Nice, im pretty excited for the new Yamcha. The 2.0 sucked
>>11931954i’m very surprised chiaotzu is a general release. he’s not a popular character at all.
>>11932052I don't know why they're not just a bundle as anyone buying one is gonna buy the other. Are they expecting people to army build him or something?
>>11932099Has it been confirmed as a two pack yet or are they gonna try and sell Chiaotzu on his own?
>>11932103>Has it been confirmed as a two pack yet or are they gonna try and sell Chiaotzu on his own?They are advertising them as seperate figures. https://www.instagram.com/instamashii/
>https://tamashiiweb.com/item/16081/>no tired face after cumming on Cell 88 timesWhy? That shit was iconic.
>>11932101>>11932102I am very tempted by these but fuck the prices are a little crazy imo. Really gotta think on it.
>>11932054Their logic is probably that he's a "real" figure now with multiple faces and articulation that matched full figures. The old one being accessory territory still. He's basically about the same as mini Shin who they sold on his own.
>>11931953>>11931954>>11932052no fucking way these guys are regular releases with them, especially Chaiotzu. I'm expecting them to revise that saying they fucked up. hopefully they are though.
>>11932274>no fucking way these guys are regular releases with themWhy wouldn't they be? Gohan, Vegeta, and Trunks were all General releases that are essentially sold at a P-Bandai price...so might as well keep that going with Tien and Chiaotzu. Chiaotzu likely will not sell well, but Tien is popular enough based on the current aftermarket prices of his previous figure to (finally) have a version they can re-release and make it so people give Bandai their money rather than people giving it to some random reseller on eBay.
>>11932274In the past they shot themselves in the foot by making certain characters like Tien pbandai where they couldn't reissue them. This Z fighters line up is gona be the foundation of the line so they're gona keep reissuing them and have them available. The exclusivity gimmick is now the base to help sell the first run and I'm almost certain now Yamcha is gona have the last one.
anyone else preorder this? would have preferred a blast effect to a coomer face but it is what it is
>>11932331the eyes looked weirdly printed on. Is that how it will look like? They lack color. Other than that it looks literally perfect
>>11932331Yep. Though I'm worried about what coomer face we actually get. Twitter fags made them change it and almost cancel it outright.
Look at what I found.
>>11932402I think I had the ssj3 one
>>11932331Nah. But ill buy it on release from ali when it drops and get a free refund like I did with zl brolys and ns goku.
>>11932190Is this not what Shin always looks like?
>>11932300Saiyan saga Yamcha onegai... I don't want the loser Yamcha with short hair
>>11932402How much are these worth? Had them since the 90s, thinking of getting rid of them. Have Vol.2 thru Vol.10 (minus SS Gohan).
>>11932597Not much. I'm trying to sell mine for 80 because they still have the clothes and armor. Ebay has them for like 10ish a pop.
>>11932473always the headkit you can get to pop it on the cell one once it comes out, I got mine on NS goku atm
5k put up bloodfang 18I assume then that kong/red bolt/anime mythos/beast deities/new moon/blood fang stuff will probably always go up on there, still haven't seen anything else dragon ball though
>>11932615I ordered both, will sell whatever one I don't like.
>>11932615btw
>>11932628I'm still waiting on my replacement SSRose head from the one that released like a month or so ago. They forgot to put it in the box lol
>>11931448I tried that but the connection is super shallow.
Crossover
>>11932628>both bandai and 3p have moved to using shittier factoriesfucking GRIM
>>11932628It was fun while it lasted
>>11932628well, glad i was able to get all the forms of my favorite character, Z Broly that i wanted. Knew that 3p bubble was bursting soon. We had a good run didn't we? Shoulda known shit was over when 3p figures became as expensive if not more than Bandai figs.
>>11932778>Shoulda known shit was over when 3p figures became as expensive if not more than Bandai figsmean its kind of always been like that, DB toys full power frieza is an extreme outlier
I know its a shitpost addition for buying both NS ssj3 but it looks really nice, maybe one day I'll color the second set of face's side burns to match it
What stores other then aliexpress will stock the reworked November batch of ZL/Base Broly figures?Have they gone up for preorder yet
>>11932805>will stock the reworked November batch of ZL/Base Broly figures?gyz, omnime, gundamit, maybe 5K since they're taking 50 years and usually request the unfucked versions like they supposedly did for ygmw vegito/ZT broly and >>11932628
>>11932805>reworked November batch of ZL/Base Broly figures?What is being reworked anyway? Some people say shading and posted pics on leddit but it turned out they were just reposting pics of a custom/
>>11932628What's the fix suppose to be? The arms not falling off?
>>11932784Link. I neeeeed it
>>11932778I just wish they had put up the SSj3 Bardock and Vegita
>>11932628Wouldn't this be resolved, somewhat, couldn't fix the recall issue, but couldn't they just slap a "no refunds, be wary of quality" warning on the DB figures
>>11932863wait a week or two and you'll probably find it on ali on its own, otherwise you gotta buy both NS ssj3s
>>11932994Man found both for 135 total then these nigs want 36 for shipping. I miss cheap shipping.
>>11932784I hope I can sell this thing for a bunch
>>11932628shadenfreude intensifies
