I would be fine if they made Nappa without armor and did an effect parts kind of thing with Nappa's armor and some effect pieces. Not to mention just regular effect part sets and Saiyan Pods. And also, I would love a Raditz figure too
 
Seriously. All the materials are already there (SSj3 Goku's hair, Saiyan Saga Vegeta's body armor and receding hair line, scouter, etc.) It wouldn't take much effort to create him at all. At this point it just boils down to popularity. Plus he was DBZ's very first villain, it'd be a crime to just ignore him.
 
The ssj3 hair is not accurate to Raditz... He's also a litle taller than Goku.

Honestly, I think he'd need just about any effort as most abarage characters. Maybe they can use gokus hands and vegetas scouter, but other than that? Gotta be a new mould.

I hope they include the farmer.:lol
 
Sure SS3 Goku's hair isn't 100% accurate, but it's close enough. Most people wouldn't know better anyway. But the point is, Raditz is still more feasable than Nappa, and they managed to create him no problem. In one of the displays they even recreated the scene with armless Piccolo performing his Special Beam Cannon and Goku doing the Kamehameha. Where the hell was Raditz?! Lol.
 
I'm a hardcore supporter of Nappa and Raditz. I will fight for them to the end. Still need Tien, Yamcha, and Chiaotzu too. It's a shame that as a "web exclusive" line, they still have to make only the most popular characters. Sometimes I think I should just quit, since I figure the line will likely never finish out the Z warriors, let alone some of my favorite villains. It seems like it's nearly run it's course if you consider how Bluefin talks about character sales and choices. ****ing sucks.
 
Hopefully they make separate polls for SDCC next year. Being that people who voted in the figuarts poll who don't care for Dragonball were forced to vote in it, I wouldn't be surprised if Broly and Gogeta are the top voted, being that their videos have the most views on YouTube. SSJ4 Gogeta is even more popular! As soon as SSJ God mode was announced, there was so many message boards about how much better SSJ4 God Goku will be or SSj4 God Gogeta vs SSJ4 God Broly. Those are the kind of things I heard before watching the series, and why I had no interest in it before, so when I started watching I was so worried the show was just about power levels, because of the scouter thing. I saw a bunch of posts asking for Tamashii to make SSJ3 Vegeta. I was so happy all those images of him were fake in all those Battle of Gods promotions.

Then again, people who weren't interested might see all the characters and decide to get into the line, so I don't know what's best. They might have seen Raditz on the list and it brought back a bunch of memories and caused them to get back in the series.

We have second hand word from a lead product designer that this is one of their best selling lines...

Character selection displeasure is your own bag, but this line ain't sucking in terms of sales, if anything it seems to be thriving.

And the fact that we get 18 is only more boosting in terms of chance of dide characters. They just gotta shift focus of dbz era. And bound to happen, almost out of important android characters. At best 17,16, trunks left, cant see 'm doing anyone else anymore. Thei fansurvey was packed with non android stuff.

I agree! This line has never been more alive, and it's all thanks to those who have been supporting it, both from day one and on. As you mention there aren't many main characters left from the android saga and with the high demand for more of the main Z fighters I think we aren't too far from those demands being met. We just have to keep supporting the line all the while letting our demands as consumers and fans be heard, I'm excited for what this line has in store for the future years:)

Well...i dont wanna be the one to say it but..i do wanna see dr gero android 19 ,16 and at least 1st form cell and might aswell throw in 2nd form cell aswell and then i'll consider android saga done lol
 
But you said it ANYWAYS! HOW DARE YOU! I'm just kidding! I really like all those characters! Apparently, a lot of people hate Cell's second form, and while his first form is my favorite, I think it's great. I love how his voice sounded like a microphone when he was yelling for 18. I had to turn down my TV volume, but it was awesome. A lot of people hate. Not that the other designs weren't great, but Dr. Gero is such a cool design! I had the Irwin figure and it was pretty cool that you could see his brain if you took off his hat. I wonder why he designed them all to have earrings. Maybe, he was trying to recapture his youth or maybe it balanced the electronic currents and he was fancy about it.
 
All I really want now after Android 18 is Kid Buu, Majin Vegeta with a regular non-Majin face, and Billis.
 
There's also Future Gohan, and if they wanna take it a step further, Androids 13 14 and 15, but they're unlikely lol. But I'd still rather see them get announced before beefcake Saiyan armor Trunks. Bring some character variety to the line.

What if they surprised everybody by including Chiaotzu with Nappa? O__O

I keep forgetting about Birusu! I want him too. I hope we get Majin Vegeta soon! If this line had to end with one figure after 18, that would be my pick. I will buy multiples.
 
Hypothetically, what reason would they have to end the line if the sales are so good (at least in the US)?

Only thing I can think of is if they only stick with variants and repaints of the same characters (*coughsaiyanscough*) over n over.. then I could see the sales start to lag because we're tired of the lack of variety of characters, and they'll deem the line "no longer profitable." I hope to God that doesn't happen. DBZ has such a rich colorful cast of heroes/villains and it'll baffle me why they'll only stick with a small group of characters, only because they're "safe picks." Bluefin, Tamashii, if you ever read our opinions on this forum, give us Nappa after 17. High risk, high reward.
