S.H.FiguArts Dragonball Z figures!!!

[zackg__]

Just got home and got it on the figure. Slightly off smell that I didn't notice yesterday for the quick pic but I buy a lot of stuff like this from ali express and I've had MUCH worst smell. Fits on quite nicely however you'll need the broly stand included to hold the hair up in the back as it's quite heavy.

For some reason 2/3 heads are matte and one is glossy. It's a very easy fix but it struck me as odd. The faces are also about 1/5 smaller than the regular ones. It's not that bad on the figure but compared left to right it's noticeable. Skin tone is slightly off compared to my first release broly, but again in the cabinet light it's not too bad. Very happy! Will try and get a pic here shortly!

That's interesting that the faces are smaller. Thanks for the descriptive post!

What other stuff do you buy from AliExpress?

Yeah let me grab a quick shot.

Usually I get random odds and ends model stuffs for a game called warhammer 40k or anime stuff like this. Here's a comparison of the heads and a shot in the cabinet!

He looks cool! I really like the hair sculpt. Any sort of striations in the hair always pleases me. I see what you mean about the skin tone. Interesting that the faces are smaller. You would expect them to be the same size with the brow mold. Still looks good though. I like the other transformations for Broly that Dragon Ball Heroes has been showing. I remember somebody on here customized a Super Saiyan 4 Broly.

I'm sure Ali Express is a lot cheaper than ordering them from Gamers Workshop, eh?

I would have got that head to review but its too damn expensive for me to justify it (Almost the price of a figure), especially since I sold my OG Broly for the SDCC one, so would never display that head anyway. Looks great though!

Yeah I have no problem buying most gw stuff lol,Spent about 2.5 grand on models over the past 6 years but I can't justify their forge world prices. $80 shipped for two 30mm dudes that come out with casting errors is garbage.

Also, for those curious, the original heads will not work on the ss3 head without modification

And yeah Angelo, it's pricy. Most were about $70+$15 to shipped from china. Found a decent deal from a us seller and got it 3 days after ordering!

So... Universe 9 lost and was erased in the blink of an eye. Literally nothing left, except for Sidra's guardian


After watching that I definitely am suspicious of the Grand Priest. The Zenoh twins have the omnipotent power, but the Grand Priest definitely calls the shots & dictates everything

He might want to usurp the Zenohs and take their power for himself, and eliminate every God of Destruction, leaving only him and his offspring (Whis, Vados, etc.) left to rule. Makes sense when you take that teaser poster of shirtless Goku into consideration when it says "the age of the Gods ends now" or something like that. That's my theory, you heard it here first

 

[Angelo2113]

Universe 9's erasure certainly laid out the consequences for the remaining participants. I'm hoping Goku and Vegeta will take it more seriously. Them working together was nice to see. Still not entirely convinced that it's the end of Universe 9 though unless Zen-Oh's powers exceed Super Shenron's powers.

It would be interesting if the Angels are in on that plan. Universe 9's Angel's smirk after the erasure seemed to hint at that. I'm curious if Whis is in on the plan as well.

That is a very good speculation behind the "Age of the Gods Ends Now" teaser!

Let's not forget, this is all still Goku's fault. His nonstop desire for battle was what triggered this tournament, otherwise Zeno would've completely forgotten about it like he was supposed to do. That's the moment when the Grand Priest thought "now's my chance"

The more opponents he defeats, he's essentially signing the death warrant for trillions of lives.. gotta love it

Yeah I think Whis has to know what's truly going on. He's been nonchalant since this started, but he just can't tell Beerus or anyone beneath him, for obv reasons
I don't think he has evil intent by withholding information, he's just going with the flow

 

[Angelo2113]

I'm not sure that's entirely true. Zen-Oh, according to Grand Priest, believed there were too many Universes and planned on destroying the weakest ones. Goku's Tournament of Power is giving the weaker Universes a fighting chance.

oh yeah, i saw that awhile back, the skin tone might actually match the SDCC broly more

I forgot about that. Either way, I can't see how any fighter including Goku can possibly beat Zenoh if it came down to that. No fighting skill can match, no ultra powerful new transformation, nothing, when he can erase all universes in an instant and just start over. He can even erase the AFTERLIFE

Out of all the god-like beings we've seen throughout everything Dragon Ball, Zenoh is just it, the "one above all" so to speak

Yeah, I don't think Goku will fight Zen-Oh. He is very childlike so as long as the Grand Priest and the Angels keep him happy and entertained, he shouldn't pose a threat. As I was thinking about the tagline from the teaser, I'm coming to the realization that the majority of Angels, the Grand Priest especially, don't seem very fond with the Gods of Destruction though. Beerus sleeps the majority of the time and treats Whis kind of like **** from time-to-time. Champa seems to be the same with Vados, too. The Grand Priest and the Angels may feel the Gods of Destruction are useless and need to be eradicated.

But wait a minute. Wasn't it previously said that the Gods of Destruction and their Angels are spiritually linked? Sidra is gone so by that logic his angel should be in a dormant state. Same with all the other angels once their protégés are erased. Unless the writers forgot their own canon again.

Sure we can say that the Grand Priest or the Zenohs changed the rules for that spiritual link for this tournament, but to my knowledge this was never said in the show* so until they confirm this or another reason, then the writers *****ed up again and leaves us with yet another plot hole in Dragon Ball

*all that was said was that the defeated universes will have everyone and thing erased, the angels excluded. But the God of Destruction/Angel linkage was never mentioned by anyone. That's kind of a huge plot point to just casually ignore.

 

[Angelo2113]

That's what Whis said, I believe. Universe 9's Angel only smirked after the erasure of the God of Destruction though. Didn't say anything so it's still possible that he went into a dormant state. Or maybe that's why he smiled. He realized that connection either didn't exist or it's been changed. Got to wait to find out.

The skin tone on the SS3 Broly head matches the SDCC Broly near perfectly.

 

[shadow3fade]

Has there been an official confirmation on 2017 SDCC? I have yet to see any promo images for it.

 

[blogness]

I remember reading the SDCC Exclusive was confirmed to be Kaioken Goku.

Yeah, Kaio-ken Goku.
