S.H.FiguArts Dragonball Z figures!!!

[prodigy1367]

the phrase "i hope they make majin vegeta" has been uttered on this board over 9000 times by now

people are really worried Tamashii isn't gonna make it, that's hilarious

He's getting a release people! We just gotta be patient! They're not gonna release the most demanded figure just yet. They want to toy with us a little longer (pun very much intended) before letting him loose.

Oh man, this is gonna be extremely polarizing I can see the ******** coming. People are either gonna love or hate this, for many different reasons. As for me, I'm really looking forward to it! Hopefully they expand upon the 12 universes/12 Gods of Destruction bit that was introduced in BoG

The universe thing is finally (hopefully) gonna come to fruition. I'm super excited for this. What kind of name is Dragonball Super though...

I've read reports that the series takes place between Buu Saga and Battle of Gods. Anybody else read that?

So GT is still a possibility? I know people don't like GT but I'm happy if there's a glimmer of hope for SSJ4 to actually be a thing.

Honestly, to me, GT is no different than Future Trunks' future. It happened. It could just easily be explained that it's the timeline where Beerus the Destroyer never woke up. That's my stance on Dragon Ball GT. It was never canon to begin with, similar to Broly, but that doesn't take anything away from the popularity of them.

The best thing for me is that GT is now truly canned.

should we be worried about him?

Despite Silrian's passionate hate for Dragon Ball GT, Super Saiyan 4 Goku is still happening.

Yeah that's the way I see it as well. That's how I see most of the movies. Simply alternate timelines. What we consider canon is simply the all of current universe's event we're watching unfold. The movies and GT are simply segments of alternate timelines.

 

[prodigy1367]

SSJ4 is happening and so if SSJ4 Vegeta (eventually). Too bad GT haters mwahaha

Exactly and I'm glad Tamashii is listening to the Western demand for non-canon characters. Even though Goku and Vegeta weren't on the list, Broly being the winner of the fan poll speaks volumes.

it might be Americanized as "Super Dragon Ball Z"... not to be confused with this throwback

as of right now, there's still nothing that directly contradicts or retcons GT. Everything that has happened in these new films takes place BEFORE the 28th World Martial Arts Tournament AKA the Buu Saga epilogue. For all we know, this new series can also take place before this tournament. So sorry, GT haters, still gotta wait for more info before you start celebrating

 

[prodigy1367]

The only non-canon movie characters I truly NEED to be made is Super Janemba, either form of Cooler (both would be AMAZING), and Turles. Super Android 13 would be sick too but not required. Everyone else is just a bonus if they made em. We already got Broly so what's stopping em? I place my bets on Cooler to be the next movie character.

Playing devil's advocate, GT could be retconned by SSGSS since whenever Goku or Vegeta go Super Saiyan in GT, there hair is still yellow. According to the new movie, the yellow hair is forever gone and replaced by the blue. For that simple reason alone, GT haters can't argue it's officially not official.

Alas, Gohan wasn't supposed to be able to go Super Saiyan anymore either, after his power-up. Yet we see him do that in both BoG & RoF

 

[Angelo2113]

"Super Dragon Ball Z" sounds about right. I can't imagine they wouldn't have the "Z" in the title for us.

I'm full Pokemon on this line. I need to catch them all.

I would really like regular Super Saiyan Gogeta at some point. Here's a picture checklist for movie villains...



Edited: Everybody but **** Broly.

I thought about that too! I was watching end of Season 1 and saw Gohan go Super Saiyan and I was thinking to myself "It's all coming together..."

I just blame Toriyama for that one. Nice catch, though. GT +1, your move GT haters.

Completely forgot about Gogeta. Though if we get Janemba, we're bound to get Gogeta to go with him or vice versa. I'd love Broly's SSJ Form and Normal forms as well. Hell I want them all! In scale Hirudegarn!

That's true. Gogeta was a ****ing badass. Granted it was a movie but it was one of the very few transformations where the hero didn't hold back and completely destroyed the villain.

I'd definitely dig a super 13. Also, this guy:



We have gold frieza, so we know bandai isn't against using obnoxious metallic paint. And Cooler is probably the most popular movie villain aside from Broly.

 

[Angelo2113]

The best thing, at the moment, about this line is that Tamashii KNOWS what direction they're taking it for the foreseeable future. All we have to do is sit back and enjoy the ride...

The one thing I'm worried about for Golden Frieza is whether or not they put a sealer over that metallic paint. I know people have commented on Broly's metallic paint rubbing off quite easily.

The lightning effect from the Super Saiyan Goku Figuarts Zero on Vegito looks really cool...

Spoiler

Found this on Saint Seiya by Titus from William Besse

Does a sealer cost extra money? If so, they won't use it

For real though, 4th form Cooler would be awesome. All they'd have to do is repaint him Metallic Silver and there's an SDCC. I like the Movie Collection Final Form Cooler but a Figuarts would be AMAZING. I know they're not against big figures anymore so they can definitely make it happen
