Tamashii needs to show something new to get some of these kids back on track.

After a while it turns to Lord of the Flies here.

You say that as if its everyone at fault. We cant help who posts here, we can only disagree with them. Disagreements and arguments are two different things.

Disagreement is your forte. Do you disagree?

 

[Big Deano]

I love how everytime I try to talk to you, you decide to reply with a snarky comment as if i've done something to upset you. I really dont understand you sometimes man. The whole point in a forum is to discuss things, be that agreeing or disagreeing.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Nahh, you go out of your way to have a dissenting opinion most of the time with me.

 

[Bardoon]

And here we go again...

Trying to get back on topic here...when's the next event that we might likely see something new from Tamashii?

 

[Big Deano]

Ok, what? Is this seriously because of my GT comments? Because off the top of my head thats the only time I have disagreed with you, but thats fine, if you have beef with me I will ignore you from now on, but know that the feeling isnt mutual. I always seen you as a good guy Snake, no matter the differences.

 

[FSLAR]

To be fair to Pliss, Deano, you did disagree with him over a silly thing and it didn't make much sense he was more or less just calling out rkenshin for being himself.

I've received my PCE Trunks today (Ended up ordering 1 unit last week ), and to be honest, once with the figure on my hands, I have to say that i like the colors of this PCE Trunks..
nevertheless, I found some "minor" but unacceptable quality issues:


-The chest line of his black shirt, it's poorly delineated (I could paint it far better ).The worst part is that I found a couple of annoying little black painting spots on the skin (One in the neck and the other is in the chest Itself)

-The left boot isn't properly aligned with his left shin..

-The peg on the blue strap of the scabbard doesn't fit propperly (It's pop out contantly ).. I have been comparing with the original blue strap, and I noticed that the PCE blue strap it's a bit shorter. there is not too much difference, but enough to fit barely.. Besides, I just found another mess of metallic paint in the blue strap

That settles it, the PCE line is a complete bust. Vegeta got the weird paint defects where the gloves rest on the forearm, and on mine specifically there's paint that wasn't dried properly and a big dollop of it is on his hair.

The misalignment shin stuff is pretty much an ongoing thing with almost every figure I've bought from the line.

 

[FSLAR]

I can live with PC Vegeta's issues, though I forgot to mention that mine had loose feet, specifically the boot tips. Mine has worse balance than he should. But Trunks...he shouldn't have that since we already got less for our buck. The paint is the worst thing, because that's what this PC line is all about!

 

[Big Deano]

I love the hair on the PCE line, but i will admit, the more I look the more niggling things pop out at me. One of my Vegetas head pegs come out with the head for goodness sake! I guess im lucky I dont have as many problems as some of you (the scabbard, paint blotches etc).

 

[Snake Plissken]

I'll need to take a pic of my Vegeta head tonight. It's like a blob of crystallized honey. I actually ordered another Vegeta from Amazon to replace it.

 

[FSLAR]

I thought amazon took down Figuarts orders?

I should take another look at mine as well, all I have is that pic from a few pages ago

 

[Snake Plissken]

They're still selling figuarts. They have just about the whole DB line as well as Sailor Moon.

 

[crisis]

Sometimes I wonder if the hair would've looked better had they used the same gold paint as this

Yeah, you're right.

Have been checking all my DB figuarts, and yes, all of them have basically the same misalignment shin issue, however, this issue it's most noticiable on my Trunks PCE. And the painting issue with PCE Vegeta's gloves and forearms, it's the same i have with my PCE Trunks .. but translated to his chest and shirt

I think platinum is the one way to go that I'd think everyone would be happy. They can't get the yellow gold right, but the hair outside of the Frieza and early Android saga isn't always consistent.

This line is too old for it to have these rookie mistakes.

Where to find baby vegeta oozaru ?

 

[Big Deano]

Well, I majorly messed it up, but heres a look at my custom ssj head [emoji14]

I got a bootleg ssjblue Goku, and after I reviewed it (coming tomorrow) I tried painting it.

Makes me think of the Super Battle Collections line. I found this online one day and became committed to having this done some day...



Mostly for nostalgia because I have that Super Battle Collections figure. Not sure how I would like it on all the other Super Saiyan figures.

I think if it were professionally painted, it would look great for the newest art style. Not to knock your painting, it did give me the idea on how it would look and I like it quite a lot.

The more I look at this poster, the more I'm waiting for a Battle of Gods Super Saiyan Goku to be released using the Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Goku head mold. I mean THAT IS the exact same mold...

Spoiler

Which makes me think this was used for Tamashii's inspiration.

that's exactly what I had in mind too! but like Snake said, I dunno if Tamashii can achieve that same style of paint, I think they tried & PCE Vegeta is the result
