This movie was Toriyama. So it'vs very likely it was his idea.

And keep in mind, when Toriyama see a Toei creation he likes a lot, he's more than willing to take that concept and provide his own spin on it or integrate it into Dragon Ball's main story.

This is why I'm not going to freak out cause I fully believe that he saw something in Broly worth revisiting. The producers said he had final say in everything so if he's confident enough in this then we should at least give him the benefit of the doubt.

I'm willing to bet we will get a movie Broly merchandise in late 2019 further debunking that "He is only there for merchandise".

I guess this retroactively justifies all those figures he had under the Super brand? :eh:

I get the feeling people are going to try to scapegoat Toriyama's editor as the villain for suggesting the idea, but don't forget that he rejected other movie pitches before this one.

So how well are the “Ultra Instinct” Goku figures selling so far? Is that known?

As per Toriyama's comment this is his own spin on Broly. He's reworked the character and added to him, so he could be essentially a brand new character that is just based on Broly. At the very least his backstory will probably be different since it doesn't really fit with Minus.

I dig New Broly's design so far, and he has at least two outfits (the shirtless one on the poster and the armored version in the teaser) so hopefully we get figures of both.

Predictions for December's figures:
Ultimate Soldiers I- SSGSS (or UI if in film) Goku
Ultimate Soldiers II- SSGSS/E Vegeta
Ultimate Soldiers III- SS Broly.
Obvious now, hopefully the line continues into Jan onward.

WCF Set and ratio:
.Goku (already revealed) 14
.Vegeta 12
.Broly 12
.Beerus 8
.Whis 6
.A New Character 4

Winter clothes Goku and Vegeta, different forms Goku and Vegeta should be enough for them to lead a few WCF sets, hopefully we get about 5 when all said and done.

We're getting movie merch immediately in December and a lot of it 4 regular prize figures are scheduled as well as a WCF set and an Ichiban Kuji (which is typically about 5-6 figures). And then whatever Bandai have planned (find out end of next month).

It is similar to the last One Piece movie during the month it came out they got 4 regular figures and 2 WCFs I believe. In contrast BoG only got one WCF in 2013, with three more and 4 regular figures in 2014. ResF got on regular figure and UDM set during it's opening month with each subsequent month having one figure and one WCF (WCF's stopped after 3 volumes and the figures stopped after 5). So this movie is already a massive improvement when it comes to merch! The fact that OP got a big roll out shows this isn't for Broly and DB really should have had similar and now we do.

Very well. Every month is an increase in orders from gamestations, example April's UI figure only got 156 case orders from Sega and this July's one got about 183 from them! After market is as expected slowly increasing in price too now, April's UI figure's market value is now over 2000yen.

I hope they pull a Goku Black and make this trite idea into something great.

You can't get much worse than original Broly.

Wow that’s great to know! Thanks Baggie_Saiyan! I wish all the best for UI Goku. And considering it is selling so well, there’s an even bigger chance now that we’ll see it in the upcoming movie too! Considering the sales, people in japan (and all over the globe) must definitely love UI, (as do I).

The form being in or not would've been decided when the script was written last year.

DBS FES!! SPECIAL (re-release/re-colours) pics finally, out this Thursday:
[spoiler]Image

Image[/spoiler]

SS4 was just released in May but probably included because they couldn't include anything else (since Kid Goku repaint is coming in the main volume this month and the SS gold repaint in Sept), colouring wise Black is the most obvious has a pink tint on the clothes to reflect aura, other than that the others looks more clean I guess as the original volumes had these darker areas of paint to presumably reflect getting dirty in battle.

FES line didn't need a re-release the DXF line did, it was in desperate need of a new paint job as the sculpts themselves weren't too bad but let down by final production values. Oh well.

Speaking of, interestingly Sega only ordered 85 cases as expected, and about 170 of the main FES later this month... that was all fine and expected but the interesting thing is is Namco did the opposite...

Dragon Ball Minus was a bonus chapter, not a full fledge story. Not sure why fans can't understand that.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

Dragon Ball Minus was still an unnecessary revision of a character (Bardock), as well as Goku origins.

It was necessary since the Bardock Special never made much sense if you put some thought into it.
