Blood that setup looks, pun intended, bloody awesome! If it's even a little lighter url, that's right up my alley, looks mysterious, stylish and almost cinematic.:clap

There are three defining moments in dbz for me; Goku going ssj, Gohan going ssj2 and Goku going ssj3. All three coupled with Bruce Falconers music give me goosebumps everytime I watch them.

:goodpost:

For me though, I couldn't get it to 3 overall, but I could 3 per 3 major periods:
Saiyan/Namek: Goku winning the beam attack struggle with Vegeta, Goku's first use of the spirit bomb against Frieza and Goku going SSJ (obviously).
Android/Cell: Vegeta's ssj, Vegeta's Final Flash and of course Gohan's SSj2 (kinda including him destroying Cell) (Honestly, too much to choose here.:lol)
Buu: Vegeta's Sacrifice, Goku's ssj3 and Goku's final spirit bomb

My only pain here is that I haven't mentioned Piccolo anywhere, cause he constantly loses out to saiyans.:lol So an honourable mention with Piccolo's 3 defining moments for me: Sacrificing himself for Gohan, Arriving to protect Namek against Frieza and his re-fusion with Kami against Cell 1st Form.

:clap:clap All great moments. If i had to just go with my top 3:
1)Gohan going SSJ2 and his whole fight with Cell
2)Vegeta going Majin(his meanlingless speech) and sacrificing himself against Buu
3)Goku going SSJ the first time

Honorable Mention: The Nameless Namek, Vegeta's First Final Flash, Birth of Vegito, Piccolo holding his own against Freeza, and Trunks going Super Trunks
 
alright, testing some light :D

march, im getting ready for you!
Love your display blood!


No problem, and I agree on them fitting with dbz; the blue punch effect, if it clips on in place of a hand, would be good for ssj3 Gokus dragon fist.
Exactly what I was thinking

Yes, I'm going to do another group shot soon with Krillin included. Unfortunatelly I don't have SDCC Goku and SDCC Piccolo.

Like Big Deano said, this effect part is from Terry Bogard (D-arts).
Can't wait, always love your pics man!

What about the Garlic Jr. Saga?!?! Haha totally kidding the only thing memorable from that was the fact that it's the only time you really see Chi-Chi fight in DBZ which honestly never needed to happen.
I think you gotta add the first (accurate) use of the special beam cannon for piccolo when he puts a whole in Raditz and Goku to be honest you never really see that happen with any other attack other than the discs frieza hits himself with.
 
Although it's not a defining moment, one of my favorites is when the civilians take advantage of Boo's destruction and snipe the elderly couple. I think it's such a great scene and another reason why the Boo Saga is my favorite.
 
He's probably referring to the snipers who kill Bee, blow up Buu's first house and later kill Hercule. They're Super Buu's first victims.

My favorite moments are the previously stated ones...besides the sniper thing.
 
From fwoosh commenter:
"Sucks that bootleg DBZ Figuarts suck so much considering how expensive some of them are now. If Piccolo and Trunks didn't cost so much I wouldn't be so hesitant about starting collecting this line but if I can't get my favorites without spending $80+ each I don't think I'm interested."

And this is why re-releases of main chars are important. Exactly for those who want lesser characters the line needs to continue momentum, and that's kept up by new people buying into the line. You need to have the main chars fairly available consistently.

So yeah, a rerelease of a major character once per year seems very smart to me for the vigor of the line and ergo it's ability to enlarge the roster of characters, eventually serving every one.
 
Yeah I was looking on the Fwoosh board and have been seeing a lot of people that want to get into the line, but don't want to because they can't get there favorite character because they're to expensive, thus not caring to invest in others to compliment them.

I would like 6 figures(4 new and 1 re-release and 1 repaint, 2 re-releases, or 2 repaints), 1 two-pack or creature or vehicle(i.e. Trunks and Goten or Shenron or a Saiyan Pod), and 1-2 accessory pack(s) a year.

This way you get main and minor characters and more display options
 
You're a beast 12eape12!:lol Looks great. I think he's a tiny bit out of scale, I'd say, but hell, some official releases are too. Considering we probably will never see that Krillin officially, I think that's the best custom I've seen thusfar.

Gotta be hard for Vegeta to accept Krillin has the same muscle volume. :lol

Honestly this is what almost kept me out of this line. I am a huge Gohan and Piccolo fan. And the prices for both are kind of ridiculous. But when a buddy of mine got the Saiyan Saga Vegeta and I saw the quality, I knew I needed to just do it. So I got Vegeta while prices are still good. I found the SDCC Piccolo at toyarena.com for under $80 shipped. I do not regret either purchase. Now I am on a mission to find Gohan. But I am already accepting that he will probably cost me more than any other figure. I'm holding out on SSJ Vegeta, in hopes they release the Buu Saga version.
 
For those that aren't on the dragonballfigures website here is my finished custom. Saiyan armor krillin


Looks great! The only thing that could use some touching up IMO iare the areas where the paint transitions below the hips (from shorts to skin and skin to boots). The transitions look a bit fuzzy. Otherwise, awesome job!

He is actually the same height as the regular krillin.lol he is not vegetal height. I got a pic on dbf with frieze and vegetables and regular krill in on there if you want to post it here or take a look at it. I'm at work
