S.H.FiguArts Dragonball Z figures!!!

I didn't intend to do this today, it just sort of happened.

I made a more accurate version of Frieza's death ball from the anime. The one that got swallowed by the spirit bomb.

Any chance you can do this ?

^ Any effect even coming close to Cell and Gohan's beam clash would be freakin epic.

That's something I would buy in a instant.

I have an idea of how to make this, I need to grab cell and gohan first. Gohan's price is pretty prohibitive.

I'd need to get the sizing/positioning right.

Would be insane to have.

Oh yeah, but the scale would have to be reduced. As pictured there, in scale with the figures, you'd need a table just to display it.

Plus the price lol.

Plus the price lol.

A full scale one would take an absurd amount of time to make. I can't even begin to guess.

 

[krec9]

You could just make a top half of it the other half is in the ground.

I don't care much about Bills, but this is going to be a good deal if it is in scale with Figuarts.

Not much of a Vegeta fan as I am a Goku fan, but that Vegeta looks insanely well done!

Well vegeta is the second to come into the line(has yet to be released), and Goku was the first who has already been released. Here's a pic:

Here's a few pics of my SH DBZ collection so far plan on picking up Trunks next month and my SSJ Vegeta should be here towards the end of this month. Being imported from Hong Kong.

Here's the FIX for Friezas Leg gap.

Now it is simple enough but I need to stress a few points of this mod if you're going to do it yourself. Always use a fresh blade an xatco blade since there the best IMO. tweezers are something you will need. The pictures show everything you'll need except two things. 1 cup boiling hot water and 1 cup ice cold water.

you want to start out by removing his leg from the ball joint.
then taking the blade and very gently shaving off small layers of the inner thy where the ball joint rests. If you look inside his thy where the ball joint fits you will see that the slit area is more narrow then the other legs, this is a common QC issue.

Now just take your time and remove small shavings test fitting the leg back onto the ball joint to make sure it fixed or not.

after several shaves and tests it finally fit into the more narrow (now less narrow) area removing that unsightly gap. However I did notice that when posing my freiza his leg was a little loose. SO this brings us to the tweezers and hot n cold water.

boil(microwave 1 cup water for 1 min 30sec.) and have 1 cup ice cold water on standby.

now take the newly trimmed leg and dunk the ball joint area into the hot water hold there for at least 45-60 sec. then remove, take the tweezers and wiggle it into the area between the fitted area where the ball joint rests and squeeze the ball joint space tightly and hold dunk into ice water and hold for 60 sec. bring out of water remove tweezers and dry off. Now pop on that nice tight joint and presto no more gap with a nice tight joint.

First two pics are before the end 3 are after hope this helps out.

Not at all. I appreciate what your doing, but I can only sorta follow you. Can you take an additional picture, preferably not so blurry, of the leg, off off the joint, so we can better see what you cut away?

Generally speaking, no articulation, no care... But...

Some friends of mine brought that goku back from dragon on for me as a gift. He is awesome, but he is huge. Like play arts Kai huge.

Not a problem but I will have to post them tomorrow. Ill PM you directly to let you know when I've posted them up.
Also I don't know if anyone's done it before or has said anything about it before but how do the older Hybrid figures stack up size wise to these new SH figures?? cause I was thinking of just picking up a freekin ssj trunks and regular trunks hybrid. cause im not paying amazon or ebay prices for a SH Trunks.

The hybrids are a completely different scale, 3 3/4" I think, and the figuarts are closer to 5-6"; I wouldnt recommend hybrids anyway, they are brittle, the joints are awkward and they literally fall apart, not worth the money! (I have both Trunks and Adult Gohan and ALL of them have a defect!)

This is insane.
