S.H.FiguArts Dragonball Z figures!!!

[Angelo2113]

lol trust me, the real Stage Act 4's are nothing like the ones that come with the Datong. Buy the real deal & you'll notice the difference immediately.

I have 1 of my DBZ figures in a specific pose using the Stage Act 4, it's raised over 10 inches above the base & is perfectly steady. I can't reveal what scene it is exactly yet, tho.....

So close!

 

[Angelo2113]

Is it just me or is that phony Tamashii stand that comes with DATONG scouter a complete POS? The base is wobbly, the claw arms pop off all the time and so does the anchor for the claws...

please, please, please tell me ACT 4 is the real deal because if they are anything like the counterfeits then i'll be hugely disappointed.

For me, one stand is wobbly, two of them are flat. Although, the hole is a little too big for a regular Tamashii arm. The claws work fine for me though. Tamashii should have put six sets in a regular Act 4 package rather than just three. It's smart for them because then they make you buy more but it aggravates me.

Amazon has Frieza for a decent price if anybody is looking.

Not bad although for a Canadian like me that price is in line with most other places. Honestly Frieza isn't too bad....it's SS Vegeta that makes my wallet quiver.

I haven't been able to find a decent price for Frieza similar to that so I figured I would pull the trigger. 2015 is going to be a very low budget year for me after getting into this line so I'm spending as much as my bank account will allow until January 1st.

Yeah, Super Saiyan Vegeta keeps getting higher and higher. I like the figure but I made a promise to myself that I wouldn't spend over $120 for it. Which will never happen but I really have no problem with that. I would rather spend money on figures that have more within the packaging.

...How have I not seen that pose for the Androids before? Those heads look like they were specifically made for that pose. It's fantastic.

There was a frieza at mandarake for about $60 yesterday but it sold super quick.

What's this mandarake? I keep hearing about it.

Edited: That was almost close to retail, right?

Did you get tickets to go back to SDCC for 2015?

 

[SurlyJ]

This is mandarake MANDARAKE Online World Shop

Japanese site that specializes in used stuff. They have several stores all over japan. Most of their stuff is listed as used and some form of damage, but their standards are REALLY high so usually whatever damage they mention is just normal package wear and tear. Many times their used figures are event brand new.

I didn't get an sdcc badge through prereg this year. But I did apply for a professional badge. I meet the requirements for one so I'm hoping they grant me one. If not I'll just have to bother my work again and hope they can hook me up.

Have you ordered from them before? It's a pretty cool site. I noticed that Super Saiyan Goku saying it has a damaged box. It really is just regular wear and tear.

How did you get one through work? If you don't mind* me asking.

I work on a tv show that often has some sort of a panel or presence at sdcc.

I have ordered a few times through mandarake. Haven't had any issues. The only bummer is you don't get shipping quotes before you choose your method, so just be careful going with EMS as it can get expensive. They have cheaper options though. When you order something they may or may not actually have it because the stuff comes from retail shops, so sometimes you place an order an a day later get an email saying it isn't available. But most of my orders have gone through. There's nothing shady about it tho, perfectly legit site to order from. They update their listings every day too. Can get addicting searching lol. Some great deals pop up there but go fast. It can also be a pain searching since you generally need to search in mandarin to get the most effective results.

...Any hint on what the television show is? I'm just kidding. That's really cool!

Gotcha. Yeah, I noticed the pain in searching. I didn't even think of searching in Mandarin but I'll definitely try it now. Thanks for posting the link to the website. I've been hearing about it for quite awhile and had no idea what the heck people were talking about.

Haha, ooh I just use the word troll casually for everyone who purposefully cons someone with an opposite unrealistic opinion than they actually have (different from sarcasm, as that's meant to actually come across as fake). Internet is full of trolls, but that was a funny gag and you caught me off guard, I can appreciate casual messing like that.

Yeah then we're certainly cool mate.: I didn't apologise for nothing, I was kinda bummed out seeing that message of you taking it that hard, but I should've known better . Thanks for coming out about it though, a real troller would never do that and keep the facade going. Those people are just pathetic and annoying.

Uh Blood, am I missing something here (again)? Cause that theme was Frieza's ringtone in TFS...

well instead of having the title being "resurrection of frieza" its "resurrection of F". he got inspired to do that cause of the song "F" made by Maximum the hormone which is about frieza. the fanbase decided to make that frieza's theme song and yes it was used in tfs. im just hoping he's gonna use that song in the movie though

 

[Silrian]

*random example, kinda like sometimes you see in viral videos of a bad rainstorm & the street is obviously flooded with a giant puddle of mud in the middle. You see cars trying to drive through it with no success & get stuck, but there's always that 1 douche that believes he could make it through if he just floors the gas pedal, instead of just going another way. Yet he ends up like the others. Poor example I know but it just popped in my head

Wouldn't that analogy apply to cold NOT being stronger and maxing out immediately against Trunks?
"let's go drive cars again." "B1tch1n'!"

Anime all the way.

And what Timone said.

well instead of having the title being "resurrection of frieza" its "resurrection of F". he got inspired to do that cause of the song Maximum the hormone made a song about frieza called F. the fanbase decided to make that frieza's theme song and yes it was used in tfs. im just hoping he's gonna use that song in the movie though

That'd be hilarious. That TFS joke is so ****ing brilliant. God I love TFS Frieza.

 

[Silrian]

Haha I here ya, I dislike people like that also. I honestly hate the most people who talk outta their ass about things they know nothing about.

It's a tough one but I think I hate trolls more because they usually don't stop until they're forcibly removed. That's rarely the case with people who just don't know any better,

 

[ManikDX]

Well a bit off topic (maybe not) but, Would you guys buy a End of Z Goku Figuarts with a SSj2 head? Or Would you like a SH Kid Goku with removable tail? I still wish Tamashii would announce Buu Saga Vegeta with Majin Vegeta head and removable Halo included.

 

[Big Deano]

Tbh I think a ssj2 Goku isnt different enough to merit its own release but hey, this is tamashii, theyve already used that mould 5 times

If done correctly, majin vegeta could come with a ssj2 Goku head, since he only needs one head and just some hair pieces with and without the symbol, much like 18 with Krillins parts.

A ssj2 Goku head with smirk face that also uses the ssj faces would work perfect imo.

 

[HavokBR]

Greetings friends

Sorry Silrian, all I found were the pictures because the source does not mention the original source

Question 2, Which Ultimate Son Gohan looks better?


See you later

I just want a body that matches normal Goku's gi.

 

[Big Deano]

I just want a body that matches normal Goku's gi.

With Gohan im pretty sure thats what we will get anyway tbh, it was obviously that body they showed off the head with and they will still have the materials from normal Gokus release.

 

[Orbital Frame]

Thank you very much for your answers, this time won the Anime version

TBlake: thanks, the manga version does not look bad, but I only buy it in the unlikely event that includes a head version of Super Saiyan.

timone317: of course I saw your post, it was very helpful to repaint the figure, thanks.

In my opinion Bandai should only make figures with colors of Anime, by Havok mentioned something about the figures that come out should be well together with those we already have, which I think is very important in a collection.

News about the 2015's film:

Spoiler

Apparently, this new film will have a new transformation for Frieza and is revived in a different way than it was when he was alive. Also, after finishing with the Saiyans, he plans to end Bills, as the text says.
