Ugh, that is some REAL sloppy paint on Nappa. I can forgive some overlap here-and-there (like on Vegeta 2.0's gloves) due to the production process...but there is NO excuse for that shoddy Hasbro Marvel Legend-ish paint slop on a $70+ figure.

Welp, Nappa came in today. I still don't have my Scouter Vegeta 2.0 so here he is with the OG Scouter Vegeta:

I got shoddy paint in some spots:

This pic doesn't show it too well, but there is some paint shading on the head:

The heads are all pretty shiny too. Like cheap datong shiny.
I guess shoddy paint Nappa is better than no Nappa...

Their quailty with each release gets worse.
 
The paint is pretty sloppy in a lot of places. That left fist is terrible but the glossiness of the heads is my biggest complaint. The rest of the skin has a matte finish. I just don't understand why they would do that. Maybe the one I get from Toyz will be better.
 
I saw some Japanese reviews of Nappa on youtube a few days ago and Nappa's head is really glossy... I wonder why they did it like that. Oh well, I just hope I receive mine already, but Amazon says his release date is September 25.
 
Good episode tonight. Despite Goku and Vegeta's horrible battle plan, Tien shined really well. ...So freaking weird having to see them run.

Edited: Who else among us would like to see all members be released for Universe 7?

Goku and Vegeta will work for this and/or Future Trunks story arc. The only new design I imagine will be Goku's new transformation.

Piccolo 2.0 is happening so it could be used for this as well.

Gohan would be a simple new head mold on Goku's new body.

Krillin, Tien, and Master Roshi will be new but could also work for Resurrection F. Krillin would work for Saiyan Saga too.

Android 17, 18, and Frieza would strictly be for this story arc. Androids have new attire and Frieza has a halo.
"Shut the hell up!" :rotfl I love that DBS let's characters do this.

And yeah going for the Tournament line-up is precisely what I want now, it's the equivalent of JL/Avengers team line-ups, they are the Z-fighters. I just don't care for the DBS-correct clothing though, so with upcoming Tien that makes 9 already technically, but I don't like the twins RR-outfits. And Krillin's aint job not matching Goku's gi is still annoying, would rather have his saiyan/namek saga/DBS outfit.
Piccolo 2.0 isn't confirmed is it? Don't think we'll see that anytime soon.
Yet everything sells out lol.
Well certainly not due to me. Also, isn't Android 16 still available? (Exlc. rereleases that are also still available.) Armored Trunks isn't doing well either from what I can tell.
 
Yeah! It's crazy hearing characters say stuff like that. Especially the Funimation dub.

I agree about the Justice League/Avengers line up equivalency for the characters. The questionable part with that is whether Tamashii Nations actually finishes the team. (Still waiting for my Vision and Bucky, dang it.) I'm digging the Androids' attire in this Tournament. It's casual. They've moved on from their Red Ribbon Army personalities and made lives for themselves.

Oh whoops, my mistake. He hasn't been announced.

Tamashii Nations already has the money from Android 16, Vegito, Ultimate Gohan, and Premium Color Super Saiyan Vegeta sales. It's the retailers that are stuck with them.

Scratch Vegetto from that list, Angelo...he's actually slowly starting to sell out at retail and his price is creeping up. I see him for around $50-$60 (his MSRP was $40) though I'm sure you can luck out and nab him from under-retail.

You want to know who quietly sold out and his price has JUMPED? SSGSS Goku! They're already doing bootleg versions! I see the original already jumped to close to $100!

I'm debating doing one of my crazy predictions here:

-The next Goku 2.0 figure (using the new body) might likely be a DBS Goku with SSJ and SSGSS hair. This is NOT counting Goku Black.
-SDCC 2018 Exclusive could be a "cel-shaded" Goku based off of Dragon Ball Fighter Z...I think this game caught Bandai by surprise with how much attention and popularity it has been getting (it helps that Capcom has disappointed with MvC: Infinite). Don't be disappointed if Bandai uses the old Goku mold again because they know it will sell-out regardless!

FighterZ is also another testament to the "resurgence" of popularity that Dragon Ball has been experiencing. Arc Systems is perhaps the BEST 2D fighter developer out there so for Bandai to lay down some cash and hire them to do FighterZ as a cross-platform title is a big deal (though Arc Systems did some portable Dragon Ball games). This is also possibly a move by Bandai to get a Dragon Ball fighter in the pro-fighting community.
 
That's true but they aren't sold out you can still get those below retail.

While they may not "sell out," or don't have the best of quality, Tamashii Nations continues to produce more product because consumers continue to purchase them. Which, while I may be mistaken, is what I believe Hydeous was getting at with his post.

Yeah, I've noticed that as well. When I went to the Tamashii Nations World Tour in New York City, I noticed that Bluefin was selling Vegito and had quite a few of them. I kept going back to the event and they were completely sold out by the end of the weekend. I'm not sure if it was due to him coming back for a brief moment in Dragon Ball Super or that event introduced the line to new consumers, or quite possibly both, but it was very surprising to see him sell so well.

A friend in San Diego also said that Beerus, Whis, and Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Vegeta were selling well during San Diego Comic Con. Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Goku surprised me when I saw how much he was going for lately. It could be due to Dragon Ball Super's popularity. It seems like more than a coincidence that the older releases that are selling well happen to all be part of Dragon Ball Super (or Buu Saga since that's airing also.)
 
Do you guys think Vegeta will get the Limit Breaker form? I'm assuming that he will since it seems to be the culmination of god ki in either a very emotional state or some type of perfected state. I just can't see how they can't eventually give him that form as well.

Not sure, to be honest. Need to find out how Goku achieves the transformation to make any speculation on whether or not Vegeta will achieve it also.

Anyone expecting a review of SSJ3 Goku from Out Da Box or whatever it's called.
I've been expecting one but they only have 10 days to post it. Unless they do a review of the final product which I think would be cool.
