Mike's Upcoming JPNS Toy Releases Thread

[SuperSaiyan3Goku]

That design is so hideously awful, I've always wanted a Figuart of it! <3

[Hellspawn28]

I always like the colors of that design. I will likely won't buy it since I don't have the money to get it.

[KentalSSJ6]

We get First Anime Appearance Vegeta, and yet still no SSJ4.

[Hellspawn28]

SSj4 will likely get made. From what I've been told, SSj4 got a good amount of votes on Bluefin's online polls. GT is more popular with the Western fandom, so SSj4 Goku will likely be good to go. I think SSjG Goku and Beerus will be next in line along with Broli.

[Metalwario64]

Looks like we indeed are getting Broli:

Looks fantastic, and I'll be picking him up. I'd like the hair to be more green, but everything else is fantastic. I love the gold on the wristguards and boots.

Also excited for miscolored Vegeta!

[Retan]

Holy crap look at the tits on him!!

[TheDevilsCorpse]

Not confirmed for release yet, but he's now being shown on the official website. So, I'm guessing he's being considered for the near future (after Broli and Buu?).

Kinda wish he was about an inch taller, but I won't complain...too much.

[Hellspawn28]

I guess if Broli sells well then Nappa has a chance on getting made and other non-DBZ characters like Doomsday can be made to. It won't surprise me if they do LSSj3 Broli as a San Diego Comic Con Exclusive next year.

[Metalwario64]

Oh man, they're really pumping these out now finally!

I don't expect them to make a new mold for an exclusive. Bandai/Tamashii Nations seems to always do recolors.

Thanks to someone who worked with them at A-kon, Nappa isn't really being considered.

The way you wrote that almost made it sound like Nappa was officially scheduled for release, and I want to make sure that doesn't end up as a rumor. Nappa without armor is definitely not being considered, and Nappa in armor is something that I had to really suggest with a lot of emphasis when I was working at A-kon, because I was told he isn't (necessarily) currently being considered either. Nappa isn't a definite figure at all. Which is unfortunate, because I'd like to be restricted from talking about him, like I am some other stuff mentioned to me, but that isn't the case as far as I know!

If you guys want Nappa, you're going to have to start telling Bluefin on Facebook and Twitter.

[KentalSSJ6]

Those arms..those pecks...those abs...he looks like he belongs in Street Fighter 4.

Won't LSSj3 Broli have the same body with a different head. They are doing a armor version of MMPR Black from the Zyu2 footage after all.

Because a mould with the dragon shield already exists via the Green and Red Ranger. They're not going to waste resources on simply creating a new head for a limited SDCC exclusive when it could be put towards a character who actually needs the figure and selling for mass retail for more profit.

[Hellspawn28]

LSSj Broli is almost 70 bucks. I think that's a bit much for me for a retail release in the US. I guess his huge size double price for the release.

Piccolo originally sold for like $80 so...

[Hellspawn28]

I see Piccolo go around $30 - $40, CStoys has him now at $35. I guess you're talking about the SDCC version.

[Retan]

Nope when he originally came out he was 80 to 100 dollars, I know I bought him on amazon to less.

When Piccolo originally came out, he was a Japanese import only. Prices get jacked up for those all the time.
