I like that Piccolo Daimao figure quite a bit. I'm rewatching the old Dragonball DVDs and it's great to see something that I have been watching. I wonder if they have plans for the Dragonball last Tenka'ichi Budoukai and the Piccolo Junior saga. I hope not, mainly because part of the charm of Dragonball is the semi-old look. Anything to ruin that and make it look like the more modern anime ruins the essential charm that makes Dragonball what it is. I'm an old fan, so I am willing to admit that I can be wrong in my views.
