My Husband got me this Piccolo for Valentine's day. It's from Banpresto SCultures Tenkaichi Figure Colloseum. It goes great with my Goku from the same line. :D

The specs are 6" from the base to the shoulder (highest point). Solid PVC, and it comes in 3 parts: Base, legs, upper body.

I wipe it off the tile, the light is brighter this time, everything is 3D blasphemy.
My eyes are red and gold, the hair is standing straight up, this is not the way I picture me.
I can't control my shakes, how the hell did I get here? Something about this, so very wrong.
I have to laugh out loud, I wish I didn't like this. Is it a dream or a memory?

I just got in my One Piece Zoro crossover Piccolo. He looks like one bad Namekian. I also threw in an Ichiban Kuji Saiyans rocks glass.

Now just imagine Piccolo using Santoryu.

Snagged this for $7 at my local game store. I saw the kana in the spines of all the American PS1 games. I was surprised to see Final Bout! Now I have the "The best" JPN one and the North American 2004 re release.

Too bad it sucks! :lol:

I just got wind that the first Chozenshuu had arrived today, but sadly it wouldn't fit in my mailbox (obviously). So, I have to wait till the 19th to pick it up. Stupid holidays.

The IF Labs variants of these are way better (and quite a bit more expensive). I want the IF Labs "Movie Collection" Battle Damaged SSj Vegeta. I believe it was a K-Mart exclusive back when it originally came out. But it's like 65 bucks. A tad out of my price range... :|

I rebought Attack of the Saiyans since I lost my copy. I also bought an extra copy of Dragon Box Z 7 since my original copy had a few small dents in it that were bugging the crap out of me.

Yeah, the IF Labs versions of the Movie Collection figures are way better.

However, the wave that this Trunks figure was in when Jakks Pacific took up the mantle of the Dragon Ball toy license, so there isn't an IF Labs version to compare to.

As for the IFlabs Battle Damaged Vegeta, I can point you to a cheap auction.

Won an auction for Dragon Ball Z Kai: Part 4 on Blu-ray for $41. Honestly, super glad I beat the guy who was winning. It was weird since I would put down $35.00 and then he would put the exact same amount down and be "outbidding" me. SAme with when I put down $40. So I stayed up until like 1:30 AM and put down $41. I guess the guy was sleeping since no one bid again for the rest of the auction. So, at 2:19 AM EST, I won Part 4!

Congrats, you did overpay but what's the condition of it, Used - Like New?

I remember paying $30.99 for mine, via Amazon themselves, even I feel it was a bit too much because it's just a few episodes, but due to the music, cinematic-ism, episodes, quality and all, it's sort of worth it.

Is that a Chinese rip-off from Burst Limit?

For Sonic, there's Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 officially, and then Sonic Adventure 7. So many adventures skipped. :lol:

If it's the same auction that I was watching (not bidding) as well, Brand New.

Yep! Brand New! By seller ejt69. Only posting the seller's name to see if it really is the same as Gonstead was thinking of. But yep! It's getting shipped to me Brand New! I'm really happy I finally got it!
