Re: Mike's Upcoming JPNS Toy Releases Thread

Does anyone know why the new Nappa figure is significantly more expensive than the vegeta? I would presume the Vegeta would have the higher demand. Maybe not going to produce as many Nappas? Nappa is a limited release, plus it's freakin' big. The larger Figuarts are typically priced to scale. Makes...

Re: This is probably why Toriyama "forgot" about Lunch...

I believe Toriyama was intending that final panel of 17 during the genki dama of the Boo arc to be Lunch. So I guess he didn't totally forget about her.

Re: Would the dragon ball series be more respected if Z didn't exist

^In America Pretty sure Dragon Ball was popular in Japan before Z happened Yeah I meant in America. But I heard that anime was not common in Japan, so I'm pretty sure most of Toriyama's money is coming from westerners. Anime is exponentially more popular in Japan than it is in the United States/Wes...

Same I originally wasn't going to cop, but the closer it gets to release the more I'm thinking I will.

Re: Help identifying a drawing.

That image appeared in Weekly Shonen Jump 1986 #05, street dated 20 December 1985, coinciding with chapter #055 . It was part of a series of images used for that year's Jump/Dragon Ball calendar. Awesome! Thank you, Friend. I was not aware of Yamcha ever wielding a Panzerschreck in Toriyama's art (...

Re: Is there anyone that's annoyed of the DragonBall Super Japanese Dub?

I am annoyed. Much annoyed. That the Japanese haven't dubbed the series in English. Prob still watch subs, but at least we wouldn't have the drastic change of tone and character.

Re: Has anyone purchased any banpresto figures/statutes?

are you looking at a particular line or figure? All in all banpresto makes really great products, but the quality and price point can range a little bit. For example the World collectible figures are fun and great, but arguably the worst value in terms of figure for price.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions

I think it would have been naive to think Shueisha was releasing exact replicas of the Weekly chapters (I was hopefully too, sure). Seemed to me the purpose was to have a volume the size of Weekly jump, and include lots of the little extras that go along with it. Having a volume in the dimensions of...

Despite not being 100% "as it was in jump" the Soshuhen version of the manga is great, and is my favorite version of the manga.
