S.H.FiguArts Dragonball Z figures!!!

Just finished watching it. Cant believe how hopeful they were by having a scene hinting at a sequel during the closing credits

Ive been reading the multiverse manga since the start; it makes a great alternative to the abomination that is GT. For the most part it also makes sense, as it also has special stories that tell what happens if certain events happened differerently, like if Cell had beaten Gohan, or if Bardock had successfuly warned everyone of Friezas plot. I'd recommend it, a really good fan manga.

I guess that scene can be interpreted as the entire movie was just Piccolo's bad dream! lol

Ya i found it a few days ago and powered through every page till the end, now im left here waitin for the next update lol, i personally like the whole part with krillin actually killing vegeta and being like," did u say somethin goku?" N goku was all like meh nvm lol how often do they release chapters for the dbm?

 

[Big Deano]

Usually every monday wednesday and sunday, sometimes more. I like how they edited the Broly mangas to make them work in canon; makes you wonder why those slight changes werent in the movies to begin with.

@bane Haven't finished watching dragonball yet so I'll get back to you on it.

As it stood so far I'm inclined to agree as I've always seen Krillin as a main character and yamcha and tien as side characters.
Granted krillin is the outer edge of it. Because if you wanna define main characters more compactly I'd say goku, gohan, piccolo and vegeta are THE four main characters of dbz (and piccolo, though least significant in terms of fighting, is constitutional for the very thing the show is named after) . But if anyone gets added first to that I'd say krillin. I think Trunks is a side character with a spotlight role in one period. And I see no other characters possible as main chars in dbz. I don't count villains because they're all strictly period based.

And that has nothing to do with favoritism, but everything with screentime + story significance. So yeah, overall I think goku, gohan, vegeta, piccolo and krillin are the (combined or just dbz) series' main characters. Everyone else is a side character in varying degrees to me.

Where can I download it?

On another note, I just finish watching battle of Gods. Quite entertaining, I must say. I really enjoyed the part where Vegeta was singing the bingo song.

 

[Big Deano]

It isnt a download, its a web page:

www.dragonball-multiverse.com

 

[Silrian]

Any idea on when Battle of the Gods will get a Funi(Kai) or Ocean dub?

 

[MrStayPuft]

I'm about to attempt the superglue trick on my Scouter Vegeta, just hoping someone could clarify something before I attempt.

So if I understand the responses I got earlier, the best method is to apply the superglue/nail polish to the ball joint, let it dry, and then put the joint in the socket once dry, correct?

 

[Silrian]

Yeah the idea is simple: make the ball larger/socket smaller and less smooth so it fits tighter...

I havent tried it yet.

 

[Big Deano]

Yup, like Silrian said, you want more friction between the ball and socket so making the ball bigger is the easiest way to do it. I can emphasize enough though that you need very thin coats, preferrably testing once dry with each coat to make sure you dont overdo it, that can be as bad as being too loose.

The trick is patience; it takes as long as it takes. Rushing it will lead to disaster.

 

[Baneofdemon22]

I guess I'm going to try it with my Gohan's arm. I'll go the Super glue route.

 

[Big Deano]

Gohans arm was the only joint I couldnt get to work, I dont think its anything to do with the friction of the two joints, I just think the socket isnt molded correctly, so the ball doesnt pop into place like the original does.

Siliran, please avert your precious eyes. This post contains content regarding bootleg SHF figures. Ohh my!

Guess who just received a pair of brand spanking new Saiyens! I have to say, these new Chinese bootleg Vegetas are far better than I had ever anticipated. That said they are clearly no match for the genuine article, but that is to be expected. The really good news is that all the genuine SHF accessories are perfectly interchangeable with theses bootlegs, and that is when the fun really starts! Once you replace the slightly odd looking head sculpt with a genuine Tamashii product, the figures miraculously transform. These figures are simply awesome! Yes, the crossed arms accessory included with the genuine SHF Vegeta fits these figures perfectly. When partnered with the additional head provided with the same figure, the bootleg Vegeta looks EPIC!!! Who would have thought a bootleg would ever be described as being epic, certainly not Siliran...

If you are a die-hard fan of the Z or serious collector but just can't justify the hefty price-tag a genuine SHF SS Vegeta commands, buy this figure! I have absolutely no reservations in recommending this figure to all collectors and fans alike. Do yourself a favour and buy one guys.

 

[mrcateater]

Supernatural that is awesome! I am still waiting on mine to arrive, but I am honestly kind of worried about the head sculpt they look really plastic and the hair looks odd too. Is that just in the pictures or is it not that much better in person?

 

[crisis]

Nice collection! I'm considering purchasing that Vegeta bootleg myself, as a placeholder until I can afford the real one, lol. Have you considered customizing Trunks' hair to make it longer?

 

[FSLAR]

Same as crisis, while also using it for hyperbolic time chamber Trunks or a normal non-Saiyan Saga armor Vegeta. And that extra crossed arms piece is real neat.

Isn't it just! I am so pleased with the fact the heads are interchangeable with the genuine SHF parts. I've got to say that my new regular Vegeta figure is now my favourite SH Figuarts figure and it's not even a legitimate SHF, lol!

 

[Big Deano]

So is it just a complete rip of the original or does it come with folded arms like the pics showed? I know I seen a pic of the folded arms, kamehameha hands and the two finger hand that were supposedly being packed with him, did that happen?
