S.H.FiguArts Dragonball Z figures!!!

[MatchaJelly]

I just got my Trunks and Regular Vegeta! Yays I had to pick one of them up from the post office after work. Sorry for the bad pics, it's getting dark over here.

My Manga Piccolo's cape has green marks on it

My SS vegeta has white marks on his shoulders anyway to get them off.

There are a couple of different methods you could use:

1. Use the back of an exacto blade and gently scrape.

2. Use really fine grade sand paper (talking 700 or more grit) and carefully rub the areas where you're wanting to remove the paint.

Do either method slowly.

*[Edit]* I would try the back of an exacto blade first.

You'll get yours soon sir. I can't have mine until i shipped my loot. Still waiting for some preorders.

Hope so. Last piece i'm waiting for before i hit that ship button on my big pile of loot.

Just received my Freeza and I must say, I'm not that excited about him now that I have him in hand. Packaging looks great. Two trays, one with freeza and his heads, hands, and feet. The second tray has his two tails, rock base, and wffect parts, while his clear stand is taped behind the second tray.

When I first pulled him out of the package his left arm fell out of the peg from his elbow. I guess mine is loose, cause it fell off afew times while I assembled him to my liking. The paint apps are awesome, except for the white joint in the middle of his purple shoulder.

I decided to go with him standing on the rock with his death ball above him look... I don't know if its his arm falling off, or the long wait that has left me wishing for more. But I'm just not 100% satisfied with Freeza. He is my second favorite villian next to Vegeta.. Maybe I will fiddle around with the display options some more, but to me so far, Normal Vegeta has been my favorite figure released so far. I am now looking forward to getting SDCC Piccolo and Krillian.... I wish we could get one a month. I think I just want my Nappa

Yeah I haven't ordered my frieza either. Seems like pretty expensive for a little all white character with flaws like the white shoulder joints in the middle of the purple on those shoulders . I know they could have done a better job on the shoulders . They could of had the same shoulders that trunks had but with a bicep swivel or cells shoulders too they don't have that joint exposed like that with a swivel ... Frieza has the same joint I see on marvel legends for the shoulder ...

Regardless of his "faults" (I put it in brackets as things like the shoulder joint cant be helped as paint would scrape off if painted and a pad wouldnt look right), it is still the best poseable Frieza we have ever had, and he comes with a crap load of stuff; I for one am happy with him.

Nice, another collection starting to grow, I love seeing that! The pics arent bad, not much you can do with them still in the box.

The thing keeping me from buying Frieza at this point is the lack of a more timid but annoyed/angry face and the fact there's no one to accurately display him with. I'm not gonna display him in that krillin killing pose and the massive wtf scream face is also only good for a few things. So that leaves me with just his smiling face which I like less then his "god damnit" or "wait, wut?" expressions he has in the show in this form... We also have no one in accurate uniform to display him except maybe Piccolo (I really don't like cell saga ssj Goku paired wiith him, just doesn't look right).

This is exactly why I'm annoyed they're venturing into multiple time periods simultaneously. The latter of these releases don't fit with the rest at all. If they release Early Goku (for either Vegeta or Fin Frieza) , Nappa and Armoured Trunks then we're getting somewhere again. I guess the Androids are good, because they interact with Ssj vegeta, fa trunks, piccolo and krillin. But Frieza has no accurate release in sight that pairs with him in his final form, that's the main reason I don't feel like getting him, because he lacks appeal to me for solo displays and there's also no one to accurately display him with.

To be honest, I don't get why we've got a Frieza release now. I'm happy for those who wanted him badly, but I'm annoyed at this type of inconsistency.

 

[Big Deano]

I do agree with you, but the thing is that the dbz line of figuarts is getting more mainstream; more customers means more figures, and unfortunately that also means less consistency in terms of where a figure is based on in the anime. This is most notable with saiyan Vegeta being shown with Frieza despite not being correct, they are making the figures more generic in when they are from, but are still expected to work with other figures.

 

[Cloud Strife]

Lack of paint on the shoulder joints aside, Frieza is an awesome figure. Happy to add him to my collection.

Yeah, I'm not sure how happy I am about that. BUT, thankfully we are getting the Androids, both of 'm. If they'd just release Nappa, early Goku and Armoured Trunks, they'd tie everything together within a few releases. Easily the best move imo.

It'd be awesome if they gave reg Goku two torso's. I mean, apart from energy effects, how much does he need really? One kamehameha effect, two torsos, I guess about 3-4 faces, 3-4 sets of hands and an extra sash. Doesn't seem like much more then what someone like Cell got, and they've already got most of Goku's mold anyway. He'd sell like crazy, most would probably buy two of him.

They didn't have to paint the jointd on the shoulder , it could of been a cap on the shoulder fully painted purple like cell has a fully painted black shoulder. And cells arms still have great articulation ....

Yeah I guess your right but you can pose him with piccolo . And black hair Goku is coming early next year . Also scouter Vegeta sorta works too.

Don't forget we need Kid Buu too

 

[Rrashidp]

Don't forget we need Kid Buu too

And Raditz!! Dont forget about Raditz! Lol

 

[krec9]

Don't forget we need Kid Buu too

Agreed only major baddie we dont have.

 

[playboy409]

Buu was the worst villain in the whole DBZ universe.

 

[Jayrod88]

And Raditz!! Dont forget about Raditz! Lol

Yes! And Nappa

After messing around with Freeza and re watching a few episodes, he has won me over 100%. Great figure! I'm still wanting a first form Freeza, but I am definatly happy now with Final Form. Also ready for Krillin to display him throwing his Destructo Disc at Freeza's tail. For anyone who hasn't pulled the trigger on Freeza, JUST DO IT!

 

[fart jokes]

If we ever do get a first form Frieza, I hope he comes with his hover chair.

 

[Jayrod88]

There's no way to release him without it! If Kamen Rider gets a bike, then small *** First Form Freeza should get a hover chair.

 

[Silrian]

If we ever do get a first form Frieza, I hope he comes with his hover chair.

Think chances are pretty big. He doesn't need anything else except hands and faces. He doesn't even take his scouter off until he almost immediately transforms so, doesn't need two heads either.

Hell he just needs the friggin chair.XD I def want him and Zarbon. That'd be so Zarbon.
