If your asking for "03, 05/06, 07, 09, 10, 13" there's this one eBay seller who was selling most of these (The only one I didn't recall him selling was Karin)
I'll edit this post if I can find his ebay account. One thing I do remember though is that he had titled his Goku figures as Gohan by accident figures by accident.

I got all the Z ones and maybe I'll buy some of these too, because they are in scale.
You can find them pretty easily on ebay.

Well, the names of items are always messed up, as they are listing lot of things not under the original series name.
Try find them under names Dragon Ball sofubi, Dragon Ball vinyl and such. They are sold by Hong Kong sellers usually.

He has:
No.3, No.4, No.7, No.8, No.11, No.12, No.13 & No.14.

He definitely had Chaozu at one point too.

Many thanks, ET93.

But the packaging looks rather weird compared to the one I bought from the store:

Now those on eBay have different type of packaging:

They definitely look legit though being from "Hong Kong" makes me worried if they're bootlegs or truly genuine.

I am so tempted to buy Emperor Pilaf 15.5cm, Son Goku 21.5cm and Kuririn 18cm. :P

Thanks in advance for response.

Yeah, I'd be apprehensive about buying from there... their prices are a little too "reasonable."

I'd be up to buy one of those figures from him, but without knowing for sure I won't, still, anyone know if he's a legit seller?

Found #3 Goku here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dragon-Ball-Z ... 3cbae45bed cheaper than the other guy (shipping's free).

Just looking around on eBay for DBZ mini figures and found this:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dragon-Ball-Z ... a2e11#shId

01. Mr. Satan
02. Burdock
03. Oob
04. Super 17
05. Ultimate Gohan
06. Son Goku SSJ
07. Vegeta SSJ
08. Super Vegetto
09. Trunks SSJ
10. Gogeta SSJ
11. Piccolo
12. Gogeta SSJ4
13. Vegeta SSJ4
14. Goku SSJ4
15. Coola (Final Form)
16. Omega Shenron
17. Nuova Shenron
18. Broli SSJ
19. Pan
20. Bebi Vegeta

20 mini figures in total seems like a pretty good deal but the shipping is too pricey and the quality of the figures doesn't look too impressive.

Btw,

Gohan, Kuririn and Cell look so retarded. :lol:

I can't really confirm if he's legit, I've never brought from him personally (resisted the temptation). However he does provide a lot of pictures and he also has a youtube channel where he has uploaded some videos of his figures.

Here's his channel:

I'm 99% sure that the figures are legit. My reasoning is in the packaging.

This is the link for a Banpresto Goku that is on Yahoo Japan (so you can be sure it is legit)
http://page16.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/u23399376
If you scroll down and click on the far right image you will notice some logos in the top right corner of the figure.

They are the same to what is on some of those figures on ebay. Others such as Emperor Pilaf have different packaging (they are in a box) but the Banpresto logo is still present. Whenever I buy Banpresto Dragonball figures from Hong Kong (or in fact anywhere) I always look for the companies logo as this tells me they are legit.

I dont think bootlegs would put a companies logo on their products as that could result in legal trouble if they were ever caught. I think you'd be safe to buy these if you decide :)

Just make sure you get the package with it, if the seller was a dishonest one they could easily show the legit package but send you a figure that isnt (without the package you wouldnt know)
