Are there more people with anime island problems? I've ordered for the first time with them, do NOT want issues...

If you try to cancel, they'll keep the shipment fee... on a pre-order. Complete rip off. That was my first and last time ever dealing with them.

Anime island is the only place i use and have never had issues. At least they let you cancel Snake, all the japanese sites take a fit when you do. Really shouldnt be cancelling anyway, if you buy something stick with it imo.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I can do what I want. You shouldn't owe these retailers a dime if you want to cancel.

Everyone bitches about BBTS, but I can cancel at anytime with no fuss. **** happens and you may need to cancel, so you shouldn't be penalized for it.

Sooooo.....this just appeared on Aliexpress. Doesnt look like Datong, but I have bought one to review anyway. If its decent it at least gives people a way to get the missing stuff from the PC Trunks

IN STOCK: NEW Trunks Dragon Ball Z Super Saiyan Vegeta Action Figure Chinese Version-in Action & Toy Figures from Toys & Hobbies on Aliexpress.com | Alibaba Group

The pictures look promising in the description, but yeah definitely not datong. Even if the body is a mess, at least they'll have a fodder body as well haha, looking forward to your review Deano as usual

Also the link doesnt work for some reason but still found it with a quick search. Was gonna post pictures from the description but realized i could not save them directly from the site for some reason.

On the topic of Anime-Island, i have also ordered from them for awhile, theyre a little slower than other places but i have not really had issues with them other then that. But if you have huge pre-orders (like i do ) then they wont ship until the last thing is in stock. I have a few huge orders with them due to their free shipping sales so i wont get my hauls for a few more months which includes some stuff that's already out atm. The wait is gonna stink but when the hauls come in...oh boy

I used to not have problems with them but lately I won't be preordering from them anymore. I waited a good 3 months after some figures I ordered were released to get them. Still waiting on two more orders of mine that came out a few months ago. Also when I send them emails they take forever to respond.
Unfortunately I too pre ordered a bunch of stuff during their 4th of July sale and I can't cancel cuz of the 20% fee. Even though they have the cheapest prices, I won't be pre ordering from them ever again. Too much hassle for a couple bucks saved

That link just takes me to the aliexpress homepage. Did you pick up another Vegeta with a Trunks head?

 

[Big Deano]

Huh, thats weird. No its an actual proper Trunks bootleg. The link I used is fine, but when I paste it the link breaks :/

Hm, odd. I tried searching aliexpress but couldn't turn up anything. I'll be interested to see what it looks like. Do you think it's the mysterious third-party bootlegger?

You guys should try ordering from Alex Bla--nevermind

It looks like a new company, different logos. Definitely not the no name company at least.

I searched "sh figuarts trunks chinese version" then clicked one of the results that would be the pony tail trunks head and looked in the related item list to find it, not sure what company it is though, but they do have some sort of logo so i do not think it's the mystery bootlegger this time.

Try using this link, im putting it in quotes so sideshow doesnt change it to a link by default:

Here's a screen shot of it.

Whoa! Finally a bootleg Trunks! The one in that image looks way too good to be the actual bootleg though. Anyone order one yet? I think I'll get a couple on payday. Then I can finally try making a jacketless Trunks custom.

 

[crisis]

i recall seeing photos of a bootleg Freezer a lil while back too (just like the tail & torso tho). I wonder whatever came of that?

 

[blogness]

I think that the Freeza (Freezer? Frieza?) was from Da Tong. Haven't seen any new pics of it though.

I owe my entire collection to ebay. Despite it being a somewhat "high risk, high reward" website, ebay will always have the best deals over any other site. And even some of the websites you guys mention also have ebay accounts of their own!



I don't know any site but to make like a wilderness diorama, try hitting up your local pet stores and look for decorations people use for terrariums (ya know, for lizards n stuff). they sell liners that mimic miniature canyons and rocky terrain, which I've experimented with. It takes some creativity but if you're dedicated then you will accomplish something amazing.

Thanks crisis and okayhoang, that did the trick!

I really hope the faces are decent...

 

[FSLAR]

So stupid... every single Saiyan should come with a normal head.

They should...SSJ2 Gohan was an exception because he had both SSJ and SSJ2 heads, and never was in base form in the undamaged gi.

And every Vegeta figure should come with crossed arms

Truth.

I saw the bootleg Trunks, it'd be great for people without the original so they can use the extra faces, and hands.
