Android.... 21???!!!???


Funny thing as I was walking out of a mall today, I overheard these kids talking about Android 21. He was trying to say that she was in a movie. I wanted to butt in and say negative ghost rider. She's a new character specific to the story of the game.
 
wait does the D in Damazing standing for Darius? Lol if it does i never knew!

I wanna say this body mold comes in second behind SWA for me, and i say body mold since some people may not like ssj3 transformation haha But not doubt it's a superb body. I think SWA still takes the cake for me though due to all the detail in it and shading etc Although you can attribute it to the fact it's design lends itself to that more.

@cobra22 i thought you were the one who mentioned putting manga goku's head on the SWA body??? If it wasnt you then that's really weird to get an SWA with no shading, all the ones ive seen are shaded or even over shaded, stopped my brother from buying an overshaded one since he didnt notice. Looks like candy corn when it's over shaded.

Also, i discovered something intersting, i have a blue LED and when i shined it in the dark on vegeta, gohan 2.0, SWA goku, broly, and the datong SSJ3 head, all their hairs glowed! Must be because the yellow paint they used has a bit of fluoresence to it. The green spiral wind effect also glows! Armored trunks ssj hair also glows, could make for some good display ideas with lights in the future.

So i finished my vegeta from the DX set, he looks really good actually! i thought i wouldnt like him based of pictures and videos but he's pretty well done. His face scupts are top notch! I got the DX Trunks and vegeta set, so vegeta was paler and his suit was really blue. Shaded hair, face with orange, mouth and ears with brown, armor and gloves/boots with a blue-gray, and the yellow armor parts lined with brown. His suit i used red for shading to darken it and give it subtle purple hue for SSJ. Also the body armor at first i made the mistake of using pure blue to shade, and it looked kind off, so after awhile of trying to fix it with a combintation of the blue-gray marker, it ended up with how it looks now, which was better than i had imagined imo, i guess it was a happy accident.

Also, to make his torso look a bit better i pulled the mid torso up a little higher to pose better, as it's connected by a longer ball peg (both at the mid joint and the hip joint) it has a similar function to the OG SHF vegetas where you can pull the hips up to pose more.

"The sleeper has awakened! I am the prince of saiyans once again!"

also i think i overdid the lining around his eyes a bit, so he ended up looking Majin to me lol I did a better job on the alt face since i lined the white parts with black and the inner rim of the eyes with brown instead. also really like the hair sculpt on this vegeta, i feel like tamashii should definitely do a hair sculpt like this for vegeta in SHF. I think i would consider buying a non dx figurise vegeta to paint the hair for SSB, but i have no doubt theyll make one anyways.

I don't know if it stands for Darius but that's his name. He works at Image Anime in NYC.

Super Warrior Awakening Goku revolutionized this line to what it is today and it still holds up well among all the newest releases.

Very cool to see the Figure-Rise Standard Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Goku and Super Saiyan Vegeta. How difficult were the kanji symbols?

Edited: Glad to see him show hair and torso articulation in that video review.
 
I have no idea what slight changes they made to his display since yesterday but holy crap...I can't wait for this release...

@angelo actually the kanji on the front and back come with the SSB kit come as decals, man i definitely could not do that by hand lol probably wouldve had to ask my bro to help me print those decals out haha

also man goku black looks awesome, i really hope he has the SSR head, but i would understand if they decided to milk it as two separate releases. Espeically if it allows for SSR to have more energy accessories.

Oh no wonder, i had no idea Darius worked at image anime in NYC, that explains alot!

As far as figurise is considered, i think im gonna build trunks next, but he's gonna take a bit more paint work as i dont want to use decals for his buckles and his sword and silver parts of his sheath are all white.
 
My apologies, I meant how were they putting them on the figure? The decals drive me crazy. That's where my patience wears very thin. :lol

The more I think about it, the more I want to see Goku Black pushed for 2 releases. I think there's so many great faces that Goku Black could come with before even thinking about the Super Saiyan Rose faces. Other than the usual grunting and shouting faces, I'd love to get a normal face looking down when he first appeared, a bat**** crazy face, a grin with teeth showing face, and the 1st promotional teaser expression. (The last 2 would actually be the same mold but with the eyes in different positions.)

ohhh that's what you meant, wasnt too difficult for me as they were kind of big, but ive also been building model kits for many many years lol what i do is i put the on the tip of the decal on an exacto knife and then apply the decal from bottom to top to make sure it stick on all services, afterwards you can kind of rub it down with a cotton tip to secure it better if you want. Was a little more cautious with the symbols since it had to go over wrinkle surfaces, if it was water slide decals it would be easier, maybe you would have an easier time with those? Water slides have no problem bending to uneven surfaces and you can adjust and readjust as long as it's still wet (although you have to be careful not to rip them).

Goku black does make alot of cool expressions haha, im more interested in SSR though, so i'd probably pass on regular form for him.
 
Awesome, I'll keep that in mind with the knife and cotton swab. Placing the decals on is a lot more difficult than it should be and I normally forget about it and decide to paint it later but the kanji symbols are a different story.

As much as I love Super Saiyan Rose Goku Black, the regular Goku Black has a slight edge above for me. He has more of a "back history" in his normal form than he does when Super Saiyan Rose so that may be why I'm more interested in his faces. I'm not sure how many Super Saiyan Rose Goku Black faces should be made other than the smirk, grinning, and shouting. All I know is that for Super Saiyan Rose, I can't wait to see a more detailed photo of the hair mold.

I never knew he works there, I've probably seen him a few times and not even known wow!

AWESOME episode tonight!

- Loved seeing the breakdown on all of the remaining competitors.
- Jiren finally showing his strength.
- Very glad to see the focus on Frost.
- Great moment between Master Roshi and Vegeta.

I went there for the first time in April. It's visually beautiful when you walk in. With all the product and the displays, it's fantastic.

Is it just me being picky or the way the figure was posed, but the torso doesn't seem to flow well with the lower area?

Other than that, pretty happy with the face and the rest.
 
I think the way it's displayed. It's the same sculpt as the one from WTE NYC and SDCC which didn't have such a noticeable separation. It will be a situation that we'll have to deal with when displaying him though.

I just want some official confirmation with pics so we can finally settle the age old question:

How many faces will Majin Vegeta come with?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
 
Super (Saiyan) Vegeta faces with the "M" on the forehead and, as shown this weekend, with the veins and different placement of the eyes. Not sure what other faces though.

Edited: Tamashii Nations did an amazing job with Super Saiyan Gohan's face when he snapped so we may be able to see a similar face for Majin Vegeta.
 
A few years ago we had this:



So for Goku Black, four faces for each form would be quite enough, and we'd have some extras too, like the energy sword. I'd buy two sets in a hurry to pose normal and SSR. Splitted in two releases could be a bit cheaper but we'd have to wait between them, and if the first doesn't sell well, we can say bye to the second.
 
I don't see us getting that level of accessories ever again Cooler I'm afraid; they seem to be using up the budgets of the new figures on the articulation. Armored Trunks is a good indicator of what we would get with two heads now.

I just bought DBZ on blu-ray for the first time (not kai) and i'm knee deep in the freeza saga and I decided I may try to make my own custom head of powering up kaiohken goku with the upright hair (when he power's up for Ginyu) to use with the kaiohken goku that I have. To me it makes the kaiohken that much more intimidating and it's the one detail that would have made this figure perfect (besides having a blue kamehameha ball instead of red)

Anyone have any recommendations on which figures hair sculpt would be the best to use?
