S.H.FiguArts Dragonball Z figures!!!

[crisis]

Awesome; although the sculpt itself for the SSj2 hair is great, not really feeling the candy corn-esque color scheme.

Lmao
Hahahhahahahha
But to be honest, it's worth a shot at $25 a pop.

They're really tempting. If I had extra shelf space, I would definitely consider buying them.

Thanks Seph for checking exactly the right 3 DC characters!

I feel like that survey might mean they've planned ahead with DBZ quite far along, in which case a survey would be useless.

Hm, that's an interesting idea, Silrian. I never thought of that. ...We need somebody to release that plan!

Should be getting in Krillin, 18, and Frieza by the end of the week, cant wait to get my hands on 17, 16, and of course the big guy broly!!!!

Awesome statues, Namkia! I really dig the Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta. I didn't even notice that the Figuarts Zero weren't Figuarts until I saw the electricity effect.

O I know depending on what pose I put him in, he could take up an entire shelf just by himself but I'm strangely ok with that

It's strange. I love the Z-Fighters but I can't wait to get Broly so I can have him completely destroy them.

Only thing I did to the face was obviously paint the portion of hair but also put yellow on the eyebrows. On my Vegeta it was almost flesh tone and that bugged the crap out of me lol and colored the pupils white on the one face also.

I'm thinking about coloring the boot tips though. Just need to find the right color and figure out a good way to do it

You did all of that on the Datong Super Saiyan Vegeta, right?

Went to NYCC this weekend. Being my first con, I was pretty impressed and inspired to do an Isaac Clarke Dead Space 1 Engineering suit cosplay

It took a couple days but they also sold Android 17 there, they were expecting it the first day but there were some delays at JFK airport.. but he was worth the wait ;p

I really want to do a Trunks vs Androids display but without Future Gohan, it lacks really hard... :[ I'll come up with something though!
Broly is massively huge, and the Vegito figure is looking good; the earrings look well placed as well. Also saw the MegaMan Zero figuart there, he's all set to go. To be honest he looks pretty fragile but that's just me.

Glad to hear you had a good con! I really enjoy them a lot. I don't cosplay or anything, I just happen to empty my bank account as fast as possible.

I'm planning on having a Trunks and Androids display, too. I have two out of the three and I need more stages. So when I eventually get everything, it will be one of the few displays that I'm eager to put together.

I got my Saint Seiya dragon about a week ago. Most painful toy I've ever assembled but worth it:


I need to get a better pic....

That is totally awesome!

I have to put my order in soon on eBay.

That Kaioken Goku is very impressive. I would actually like to see something quite similar to it when Tamashii hopefully schedules Kaioken Goku on the business calendar.

Awesome; although the sculpt itself for the SSj2 hair is great, not really feeling the candy corn-esque color scheme.

Yeah, I agree. The design and sculpt is amazingly accurate but the color scheme almost downgrades it. It was something different, though.

Yeah, I don't think it was remotely like that in the anime. The rest of those customs look great, especially SSJ Goku.

 

[Angelo2113]

I'd love to know how *he was able to sculpt the Super Saiyan 2 Goku head. It'll be interesting if that's similar to what Datong's rumored version will look like.

 

[Bardoon]

That's a solid SSJ2 sculpt. Could use some tweaks but still quite well done. Yeah! What's up with the candy corn hair paints on that too?

The Kaio-ken Goku looks awesome as well. I'm sure he'd go great with the Tamashii Red Flame effect. That's pretty much how I picture the SDCC Exclusive version looking if they did one.

What tweaks were you thinking of?

He put the Super Saiyan God Goku with the flame effect on the website. I don't care for the Super Saiyan God design but I can't deny this looks pretty sweet...

Edited: Nevermind, that's a Kaioken Goku but with his new gi.

 

[HavokBR]

Hmmm...I would never buy a repaint like this...

 

[Angelo2113]

Speaking of Super Saiyan God Goku, did Tadayoshi Yamamuro ever release his original concept?

 

[Angelo2113]

Hmmm...I would never buy a repaint like this...

I would undoubtedly buy a repaint if they were able to subtly capture it like this...



Before Silrian yells at me again; First, we need Saiyan/Frieza Saga Goku to be released though.

 

[crisis]

The spikes in the hair are thinner & more detailed... make it happen already Datong!

 

[Angelo2113]

I think it depends on the picture though because when I saw the custom I was immediately reminded of this photo...

 

[nickshaw2814]

You did all of that on the Datong Super Saiyan Vegeta, right?

Right. All done on the Datong Vegeta.

New updates also. Redid the boot tips and colored the armor to match so it's all uniform. Though it's hard to tell from the lighting

 

[Angelo2113]

...You'll be expecting my Datong Super Saiyan Vegeta in the mailbox to be customized.

Amazing job well done, nickshaw. The figure looks truly outstanding.

P.S., love the Batman cowl in the back

You can see from some the manga and anime differences. Mainly the SSJ2 hair is spikier, the little "swoop" in front falls more over his face and not off to the side. And the two sweeps of hair that come down are a little too far away as well. Coupled with the candy corn paint that looks odd.

Don't get me wrong, still very well done!

Good points, Bardoon. Yeah, I definitely got the sharper points after looking at the picture crisis posted. The front part of the hair seems to be from Super Saiyan 2 Gohan, too.

Oh no, I didn't mean to ask that question in the sense of "Why tweak it?! It's perfect!" I was asking more in the sense of what would you do to change it and I got that answer so I'm glad.

Super Saiyan 2 Goku better be released somewhere near Majin Vegeta is released.

Lol thanks bud. Can't wait to start on normal Vegeta, Trunks and the SS3 Goku head from Jacksdo.

 

[crisis]

Great job nickshaw! is that metallic gold paint you used for the boot tips?
