S.H.FiguArts Dragonball Z figures!!!

This is off-topic, but felt was okay because there's not really much going on in the thread right now:

This guy (EnigmaTNG) makes remixes of DBZ music and because it came up in this thread when discussing the anime I felt some may be interested because Enigma just put up an entire albums worth of remixes for free! Felt least I could do was give 'm a shout out. He's helped out by composers who actually worked on the Faulconer score.
He both remixes existing themes (mostly Faulconer ones) but also somewhat invents new ones that are cool as well. It's somewhat dubstep/synthrock influenced. Here's an example:

And here's the video with a link to the free download (which has the best ones in it he didn't upload to YT like his Ginyu transformation, Buu theme, Cell theme, Hyperbolic Time chamber etc. Dunno why he didn't upload those to YT, but they're great.)

So yeah if anyone's interested, there ya go.

 

[Silrian]

Oh he actually did upload more like the Cell Theme, my bad. His download album still has a few new ones too though.

Really liking that ssj3 vegeta theme.

Really liking that ssj3 vegeta theme.

Yeah he's got an interesting mix of new renditions close to the original and inspired-by type of stuff. I personally like his SSJ3 Trunks theme. The Ginyu Transformation theme (or what's kinda known as the death theme) is so killer. Found that in his free download album. There's more stuff there then on YT I do recommend downloading that. Plus you'll have all his remixes then anyway. Pretty sick he just through it out for free.

My DBZ collection so far. Really hoping they make a Brolly figure.

Btw, I've been trying to post larger pictures. It never seems to work. It always says waiting for a mods approval and then nothing happens -.-

[Silrian]

^ Nice AzimK!

I've decided to give everyone in my main display an action pose. Tried to perfect it as much as I could but I swear these figures feel like Rubik's cubes to me sometimes haha.

Off topic. And i know i'm quite late receiving my sh figuarts freeza. But out of the package my freeza's right pelvic joint is loose and has a gap. Any advices? For a little figure although i like the figure. I've noticed QC issues for it. Quite disappointed for it to be on a 50-60$ range figure.

 

[Silrian]

^ I haven't bought Frieza myself but I see the leg joint gap on a LOT of pictures, easily the majority.

Other then that only thing of use I can do is direct you to this:

[c2close]

Thanks for thr info. Appreciate it sir

 

[Silrian]

^ NP, hope you can resolve the issue or accept its existence.

Frieza still has a low priority on my overall to-buy-list.

 

[Black_Dragon003]

Aww c'mon man Broly was the BOMB for real. He was the OG Super Saiyan and hes a beefy beef cake a rocking power house of EPIC size and strength. I mean for christ sakes it took alll the super saiyans and super Picolo's power transfred to Goku to defeat him.

He may have only been in the movie line but never the less he was a bad arce mofo. I for one hope they make him along with Vegeto or gogeta or gotanks. hell all of them lol Ill buy them all.

Hope they actually make a Dragonzord as well to go with my MMPR 20th anni line.

I accepet the flaws though. But seeing it in hand and knowing what i paid for its just not a perfect figure that i haven't expected. Still love the figure nonetheless. And its just not me having the qc issues. I wish with the future releases they will be more less qc issues.

 

[Silrian]

@Black_dragon003 A guy who can only say "****rot" and basically does nothing except "Saiyan Smash" is not my idea of a proverbial "bad arce mofo". There's just too little there for me to feel any relatability to him at all. In fact, I find him quite a dumb character. He's brainless as hell and his only motivation is being an annoyed baby, literally. s far as I'm concerned the OG SSJ is Goku. And as far as Broly's looks go... Trunks sports the hairstyle way better. ("Oh no he diii'nt!")

Don't get me wrong, I have no problems with you liking Broly (why would I?), but you won't get far in trying to get me to do the same. Nor do I have a problem with him getting a Figuarts IF he serves the line's success as a whole.

Also: welcome to the board/thread!

 

[Silrian]

@c2close, yeah I don't think SHF can afford Play Arts Kai level QC issues. Hell, PAK shouldn't be able to afford PAK qc issues.

The Androids and Krillin look really solid to me though and Goku's obviously a mold we already know so I don't expect significant qc issues with the next releases.

Granted Krillin himself is a massive qc issue. *OwnedCount: +1*

I agree completely. It's the same reason why I hate hearing how one superhero is better than another because they're stronger or more powerful, because it just reinforces people's notions of comics being for kids and making them stupid. Same with the arguments on who can beat who. It's a disservice to both characters. Another reason why I think all those power level statistics for DBZ characters are silly. At least it's not as bad as the back of Marvel Legends, where they put a number between 1-10 to represent intelligence. Imagine if there were statistics for compassion, bravery, or loyalty levels?

 

[Black_Dragon003]

All arguments aside. My likes and your dislikes of Broly I just want a damn figure of him. I was never able to get a decent figure and the hybrid one is crazy over priced. I don't argue that broly is a sub character but never the less Id just like a damn figure of him lol.

And you're not alone! There's a lot of more obscure characters people want, but they will do very little to attract more people to the line. I, personally, think characters like Saiyan Saga Goku, Majin Vegeta, and Broly would be the biggest attractors for new people to the line.

Like you said, they're just figures, and figures don't have character development. They're more about aesthetics, possibility, and representing something we love. I absolutely love the character of Frank Serpico, from the movie Serpico, but come on, it would just be a figure of some guy with a beard. All he'd do is sit on a shelf. Broly has way more things aesthetically going on and would work in so many different scenarios and make for some awesome displays. I bought the Movie Masters Dark Knight Rises Alfred, and although I think he's an awesome character, it doesn't mean he's a cool figure.

 

[KPman]

I'd be down for a Majin Vegeta, but wouldn't pick up a Broly - think he's terrible.

 

[Black_Dragon003]

I got my Frieza and Goku today. I LOVE Frieza I mean dude he's just down right bad arce perfect in everyway IMO.

Kind of don't dig the yelling face's eyes looking up but meh its a minor nitpick. If I happen to score another one and I probably will I will be making a mecha Frieza or possibly even two more.

So that I can I KNOW I KNOW don't hate me Chop it up to display with trunks in an all out classic real life diorama from the season 4 show. But yeah at almost $50 a pop I doubt that lol, but a mecha version I will def do.
