Prolly be me, as I've been buying mine direct from China since Krillin.

Looks like 17 will be shipping tomorrow from Amazon!

I know, I'm excited! I think my Datong Scouter Vegeta should be coming this week, too.

Not me! I can't be on the internet when others get him. My jealousy will get the better of me.

3? Holy crap lol He does look amazing. I can't wait for him to be released. I would like to get 17 and Piccolo before he's released but after that I probably won't get any others till after I get Broly. I got in normal Goku recently and thanks to Crisis a body for normal Vegeta. Still waiting on my Datong Saiyan Saga Vegeta.

Yeah. I'm devoting an entire shelf to Broly. Or at least the majority of it. One against Vegeta, one against Goku, and then one powering up. I figure I would have to use the whole shelf because of how gigantic he is. Which Piccolo? SDCC or Manga? Yeah, I just bought another Datong Super Saiyan Vegeta just to use the body for a normal Vegeta. I should have bought two since the prices went up about $10.

...Yeah, that would definitely put you up there.

I'm going with the rerelease. The SDCC one is pretty high. I just want a piccolo for the collection. Not really picky. And there's a seller on ebay selling 17 and Piccolo together. Not much more than if I bought them separately but this way I'd get them both at the same time

I feel the same way about not being picky. Since I plan on buying Super Saiyan Gohan when he's re-released, it'll be nice to display him and Piccolo together in the similar attire. That's a pretty good deal. It's nice to get a couple at a time. That's why I'm hoping Android 17 and Datong Scouter Vegeta come on the same day.

I wish there was a way for them to release a giant ki blast, but I don't think it's feasable. It would have to be extremely lightweight & thin, but enough detail where it still resembles a powerful death ball. The ones we got thus far are pretty tiny. They're good, but personally I'd love to recreate something like this somehow



maybe not as massive as these, but something bigger than the ones we have & what Broly's gonna come with; something really intimidating, like almost the size of the figure itself

Seriously, how awesome would a display like this look coupled with the Tamashii impact & explosion effects?

 

[Angelo2113]

It would look amazing. I definitely think there are some that need to be made. A good Kamehameha would be the best way to start followed by a Spirit Bomb.

Tien should absolutely come with an energy effect to display this...

I've thought about that recently too as I thought about making a spirit bomb. I've been looking at foam balls and just painting it. Using like a wire or something to keep it suspended in the air. Could use the same thing for Friezas huge death ball just a different color. The kamehameha I haven't worked out yet.

 

[Angelo2113]

Android 17 is shipping for Amazon. I'm excited! Damn...I need more stands.

I remember taking an art class or something when I was younger about using foam. There was this material that would create a plastic like cover to the foam ball. I can't remember what exactly is was but it looked amazing and might be something you want to look into to really get that effect look.

Awesome bud and yeah I had to buy some too before getting anymore figures lol

I'll definitely look into that. May be the only solution as I don't see tamashi making them any bigger. And I would like to have something bigger for Broly if I decide to recreate the final scene from Second Coming. And ya know, wait for them to make Goten and Adult Gohan lol

 

[CFFJR]

Say, anybody know if a head from the Hybrid Action line would fit on a figuarts body?

I'm assuming it wouldn't, at the very least because there's a scale difference (the hybrids are 4" right?) but I figure it doesn't hurt to ask. I'm curious.

 

[blood]

i have no knowledge of that =(

but who here has the piccolo zero?

Of course. It's great having displays that need characters to it. It feels like a puzzle where everything comes in place.

Here's the final image of that custom Yamcha I posted pictures earlier on...

It really does. Do you have a thread or picture of your setup?

 

[FSLAR]

Wow I forgot that was out. I need to find the time for the other Zero releases especially since I just got Vegeta and need Sailor Mercury. Final product looks ok though.

I got my Datong Scouter Vegeta figures yesterday. Already converted one to Namek Vegeta. Pics later and maybe a review/comparison with the legit one.

 

[nickshaw2814]

Got my Datong Scouter Vegeta today. Pretty good figure but the package is huge and it wasn't very secure inside the box. I had parts floating around and one of the spikes on the attached face was bent but easily fixed. Just kinda dissapointed seeing how well they boxed SS Vegeta. Overall though I'm impressed with the figure. Didn't have much time to mess with it before work sadly so I can't wait to get home tonight.

Yamcha is awesome dude !!
