Looks like a custom to me. The paint on the chest looks pretty rough.

Looks like a bootleg.

Well, while it certainly looks like fake, let's remember Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan was first seen through a toy too back in the day.
We help! ... Hmm. Always get Autobots out of messes they get into.

My question is where did that hair sculpt originate. I don't know of one with wavy hair spikes.

In the other hand, his chest is painted an entirely different shade than his arms.

Also, why Gokû Black color scheme?

Jesus Christ, I don't like ALR, but come the fuck on. Halon's Razor or something? You act like he's murdering puppies.

A customized or custom-built figure. There's a pretty big scene for that kind of thing. Like this Kale:

EOZ CONFIRMED!!

Seriously though I see Vegetto's legs in there. However if Goku's supposed new form was just his base hair but standing up more I'd be extremely happy.

I know DBZ was very popular in Latin America, but I don't know who these guys think they are that they go attack writers and think they own the franchise. Do all these spanish fans act like this?
The Spanish fanbase (especially the Latin American one) is one of the most volatile fandoms of Dragon Ball, and some of them think they're superior to other fanbases. Obviously not all of us are like that, but is sadly the reality of the situation.
I never understood why the spanish fanbase is like this. I mean...who do they even think they are? You're talking about an anime made primarily for Japanese people, not a bunch of spanish people upset that certain things aren't happening in the show.

Piccolo is the most popular non saiyan as far as i know, 18 might be more popular than 17 but rarely anyone talks about her or cares no offense but the only time i see people caring about 18 is when they see a slutty fanart or cosplay she also gained a lot by marrying a main character who is Goku's best friend. 17 has the charisma, he didn't have as much screen time as the rest of the characters involved but i see a portion of people who consider him as their favorites, this was even before he came back.
From the Dragon Ball Forever Poll in in 2004:

Best Characters
1.Son Goku: 6,235 points
2.Vegeta: 2,527 points
3.Son Gohan: 2,131 points
4.Trunks: 1,487 points
5.Piccolo: 1,176 points
6.Son Goten: 798 points
7.Kuririn: 736 points
8.Majin Buu: 421 points
9.Freeza: 324 points
10.Android No.18: 204 points
11.Mister Satan: 201 points
12.Karin-sama: 185
13.Kame-sennin: 172 points
14.Cell: 170 points
15.Yamcha: 163 points
16.Tenshinhan: 125
17.Bulma: 112 points
18.Android No.17: 98 points
19.Yajirobe: 93 points
20.Videl: 86 points

An old poll, but it shows that 18 was in the top ten, while 17 was barely in the top 20 and barely beat Yajirobe. And since this is 2004, this is after GT with Super 17.

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.

Agreed..

Anime Live Reactions is one of the most unscrupulous DB youtubers around. Apart from all the click bait and stuff like that, he uploads videos "playing" music with his pc keyboard and claiming that hes actually playing and/or producing this music live, when everyone knows he's not the one producing it and he doesn't give credit to the person who really is.

When he was confronted and asked what DAW or software he uses to create "his music", he completely avoids the question and victimizes himself saying that people are just hating, envious and trying to drag him down.. This guy is pathetic!!!

I'm surprised Goten is so high on this poll. I mean above Krillin and Freeza?

If this is the case Toei really dropped the ball not doing anything with Trunks/Goten in Super.

That is Toriyama's fault, not Toei's. As a matter of fact we see them a lot in filler.

Fake as f..k imo

There's no reason to do it, or way to do it without looking terribly ridiculous

I liked Goku facing himself in Black arc, but having it as a God for himself is too much, even if it's Zamasu :lol:

And I see no reasons for Goku to be in Beerus' place at the end of the arc neither

99.9% fake or, if true, some what if deluxe action figure

Gojitaaf removed it, so it was a fake as I thought
