S.H.FiguArts Dragonball Z figures!!!

[NickElMichoacano]

Got SSB Vegeta. Plenty of ****ing paint problems...

Sorry to hear that snake, where exactly are the paint problems?

MHToyshop has SSJ Vegeta at a much more reasonable $41.99 price point. I suggest going with them if you're looking for a cheap rate from an excellent vendor! I'm not only singing their praises because of the price point, but because they are really damn good. Also, more pre-orders for them will encourage them to keep their prices low.

Nice pics TJ. I really notice that lower leg issue when Trunks is standing straight up. Ugh it's fugly.

Also, on a recent past comment...not that I'm trying to defend the PCE Frieza choice but keep in mind with the recent Resurrection'F movie and his appearance in Dragon Ball Super in the exact same storyline, Frieza has renewed popularity and still is the most popular villain from Dragon Ball....even in Japan. Tamashii might be looking to capitalize on that right now with a PCE release which I guarantee will probably NOT include all the accessories he had before.

You know I think I may consider them from now on, I just checked and you're actually able to preorder more than 1, how's the shipping price though? Also is there any differences in the package than the ones released here?

Edit: Great review TJ!

you need an sdcc goku? I have one, painted some parts though, to match all the blues, dont know if that interests you or not

Can you post some photos?

Hey Frieza check my new boot

 

[Ssj3_Vegeta]

Is SSB Vegeta as gappy in person as he is in photographs? I've got one on the way and I'm feeling a little weary.

Just asking how many versions of SSJ Vegeta are there?

right now i'm looking at a premium color version (wtf is that?) and another SSJ Vegeta which looks more muscular & better overall, and the head sculpt is byfar the best i've seen on any Vegeta product.

Well, I finally scratched SSB Vegeta off the wanted list. Finally ordered one for myself. Now all I'm missing is 3. Unbelievable how SDCC SS Goku is still considered the "holy grail" of the line, after all these years. It's gonna suck whenever I decide to give into the sellers' asking price.

But new display coming soon. I decided to go for a more simple, streamlined layout, as opposed to the dynamic poses & landscapes I previously had. But it won't be all the Figuarts standing there with their arms at their side looking straight, I can assure you lol

I really don't understand it. I had a SDCC Super Saiyan Goku and a Super Warrior Awakening Goku head on a Normal Goku body next to one another. Is it considered the "holy grail" because of its rarity rather than its actual quality?

Hey Frieza check my new boot

Great photo, Havok!

I feel they capitalized on it with Golden Frieza. While it may not be the most "iconic" design, it's his most powerful. I could see high selling potential in a Final Form Frieza Premium Color though. I'm open either way. I'm looking forward to the Figure-Rise Standard release quite a lot to compare.

Thank you guys for checking it out; I really appreciate it... I've had a few people talk to me about Calf problems on these... would one of you mind filling me in? Out of the loop and can't find any info on it.

Edit: I just got filled in... it's really crappy that they molded the joint holes differently for each side.

 

[Adeno]

Thank goodness the Vege-goo filler is over! Next week's episode looks like the beginning of what Dragonball Super should've been in the first place!

Glad to reform you to MHToyshop! They're awesome! Great customer service and they bubble-wrap all the items as well as throw tons of styrofoam peanuts in.

They ship out of California and offer free US standard shipping on orders over $140. Otherwise, their domestic shipping rates are fairly reasonable. I don't know about International.

By 'here' I assume you mean the United States. They get the standard US Bluefin-distributed Tamashii packaging.

Rumor is that Tamashii limits the initial orders on Regular releases to Japanese online retailers like amiami and Nippon-Yasan which is why they only allow limited quantity orders. The belief is that Tamashii wants to push for the products more in the standard brick-and-mortar stores and give them the advantage since they get more exposure that way and cater to larger markets...so more product is allocated to them. Once the figure has been out for a few weeks then the online stores are allowed to order much more. Same thing happened with SWA Goku.

But since in the US and other markets all we have is the distributors, we're allowed to initially order much more since it's our primary venue for getting their products.

Wait, Premium Color Frieza?

Premium Color Frieza (not Goku SS3) and Cell, yes.

From the same source, they talked too about "a big size figure" they are working for 2017 and a "new kid goku".

[KumaStyle]

Thank you, Ian.

And Bardoon, I'm going to check out MyHobby today and see if I can get on their solicitation list to help promote. Competition, especially with low prices and great service, is always best for the community.

Preview for ep 47! Unfortunately Trunks hair hasnt been fixed, its still blue. Incredibly stupid since kid Trunks is still purple but at least it seems to have that dbz seriousness about it!

That blue hair is going to bother me endlessly. His eyebrows and hair being the same color as his eyes looks off imo. Did they do this so they wouldn't have to show him going SSB? I know how much they hate the idea of having more than two SSB's, that is the main reason they destroyed Gohan after all. In my head-cannon this Trunks is from a slightly different timeline as the first future Trunks.
