Probably one of the first SSJ3 Goku figures/models I have seen that relatively got the hair right in terms of length and dimension. A shame its always in the same reused pose (yes I know its what he did when SSJ3 was revealed but shake it up abit people). I may get that simply for its relative accuracy but that 18 is looking even better.

What line of figures is this? I want it.


This one looks really cool too:

Does anyone know when they'll be released or if a pre-order is up anywhere? I need this in my life.

I picked up my SSGSS Goku and Golden Freeza from the post office today. Much to my dismay, Golden Freeza is actually smaller than his previously released form, and by a good margin too. They aren't even trying anymore. :cry:

I'm putting my foot down now. There are only 6 Figuarts (Beerus, Champa, SSG Goku, SS4 Goku, Jaco and Pure Buu) I'll purchase from here on out, and only because I want the characters themselves with high articulation (if I had an alternative line to pick from, I'd go with them). After that, I'm done. I can't support the line any more. Not with how they treat Dragon Ball in comparison to all the other franchises they cover...

I prefer articulation (and a wide selection of characters). It's not often, maybe once or twice a year, but I tend to get bored of them and feel a need to change things up.

Scale will still be an issue as well. So picking and choosing between other releases without them being in hand will be annoying too. If I have to make the switch though, I will...eventually.

Well more often than not the Banpresto's wont punch your wallet as hard (unless you are me and burned 160 bucks for Beerus and Whis when they were low stock on Amazon...) but for example, both SSGSS Goku and SSJ4 Goku are less than 30 bucks.

There is actually two SSJ3 Goku figures being released, and one is of him in a different pose. There's also another SSJ2 Goku and #18. So 6 figures all told.

Check out the DXF/The Figure Collection lines, both are great quality and in SHF scale.

If something is truly perfect, that's IT! The bottom line becomes there is no room for imagination! No space for intelligence or ability or improvement! Do you understand? To men of science like us, perfection is a dead end, a condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you but not perfect! Scientist's agonize over the attempt to achieve perfection! That's the kind of creatures we are! We take joy in trying to exceed our grasp, in trying to reach for something that in the end, we have to admit may in fact be unreachable!"

Am I the only one that thinks there NEEDS to be a nice SS Blue Goku figure with his End of Z outfit?

Totally goes with the SSB hair.

I dont quite think so. Why do you think in Fukkatsu no F, Vegeta got a black suit and Goku ditched the blue undershirt of his gi? It was so there wouldnt be a blue overload from SSGSS's color scheme. Having a SSGSS Goku in his EOZ outfit would simply be too much blue.

Also, that SSJ4 figure....must have.

Likely Toriyama's intention, but if that were truly a worry of theirs, Toei wouldn't have made Vegeta's SSGSS aura (while active) turn his jumpsuit blue anyway.

With all that said however, I would enjoy a EOZ Goku. Take the FnF Goku, remove the Whis logo, repaint the top and pants, throw in the usual Goku boots and change the belt and you basically have EOZ.

Blue and Gray just look amazing together honestly. So Vegeta in gray with blue looks great. Goku's pants also look gray too so I like his overall color scheme as well. All Goku's Orange just clashes with the form's specific shade of Blue Hair honestly.

Yeah I'm going to buy this and just ask some one to repaint the clothes:

Come to think of it... Is that legit? Why is Goku so much bigger than the box?

Big Bad Toy Store have a Gigantic Series Vegetto for pre-order, and it looks really cool. Unfortunately, living in Australia, BBTS isn't a viable option.... is it likely to become available elsewhere, like on Hlj?
