Official On-Going DBZ 2013 Movie Thread: "Battle of Gods"

[tinlunlau]

Yeah, that's the one I saw at Fan Expo!
But I only saw the Super Saiyan God figurine on sale. Others were nowhere to be found. They were selling this for 6 bucks.
Even the vendors had no idea what it was or why Goku's hair is red. Had to tell 'em about "Battle of Gods".

So when will we see a SSGod model kit? I know there is a Super Saiyan Vegeta MASTERPIECE coming next year but that's about it.

6 bucks??? Man feels ripped at buying them for £20 (roughly 32.1US$)
By the look of the ebay listings the new figure's are probably going to be released mid Feb.

I feel just as ripped when I found out that "THE Son Goku" Master Stars Piece was being sold for cheaper online. I bought that one for about $70 Canadian dollars

My 1st post in New Year I saw movie yesterday, and actually really like it, it`s what DB should be, a fun story, that doesn`t take itself seriously, i like art style, and even Vegeta didn`t sound as old as he did in Kai, i might be wrong, but, doesn`t movie kinda completely ignore GT, by making Pilaf and co. children? (They were old in GT)

I really want a nice ssjg Gokû and Beers.
Chibis would be nice, but I know the ones that do exist are crane game only.
Nendoroids or cupoche would be awesome, but I doubt they'd get picked. (Though one of them recently picked Luigi from smb, so... not impossible.)

[Hellspawn28]

S.H Figuarts of SSjG Goku and Beerus would be amazing. I'm surprise they didn't make those two yet to cash in on BOG.

I would so buy those if they made them.

It feels like there just isn't that much BOG merchandise in general. I was (and still am) so ready to buy some BOG stuff, but there hasn't been much out (yet).

They wished for youth, they can wish to become older by accident in the years between BoG and EoZ/GT, becoming too old. Shenron can grant them this wish, since it's not the same thing as becoming young.

[Hellspawn28]

We don't know what happens between BOG - GT, so anything is possible. Maybe in the next movie, they make themselves old again. In the movie, Gohan can go mystic similar how he can in the Budokai games but yet he can't transform into mystic in GT. We can't say that he lost it since there's no proof that he lost it and no proof that he can lose the transformation over time.

The problems between BoG & GT are these:

• Pilaf Gang is old instead of young.
• Gohan can't use Ultimate.
• Goku can't use Super Saiyan God or it's power.

• Gohan can't use Ultimate.
• Goku can't use Super Saiyan God or it's power.

Word it better and you'll see ther's no problems:

• Pilaf Gang is young in BoG and old in GT, which follows a normal growth processus.
• Gohan don't use Ultimate, which doesn't mean he can't.
• Goku doesn't turn into the Super Saiyan God form, but his power was restrained due to being turned into a kid again and yet, he's still increadibly strong even in his base form (which implies a use of the SSG power).

[DBZGTKOSDH]

I only mentioned the problems, not the possible explanations.

• Pilaf Gang is young in BoG and old in GT, which follows a normal growth processus.

Not really. GT is five years after the 28th Budokai, which in turn is ten years after the defeat of Buu, and possibly seven-eight years after BoG. So the gap between BoG and GT is around thirteen years. That's plenty of time for them to gather the Dragon Balls and wish to return to their original ages, but it's not as neat and tidy as "they'll grow up naturally."

I haven't seen the money, but every shot of the Pilaf Gang has them very young...

[Hellspawn28]

If he can use mystic form in BOG then there's no reason for him not to use it in GT? He never use it against Rildo, Super 17 or Super Xi Ying Long.

Does anyone know if there is any other BoG merchandise like this one:

I couldn't entirely enjoy this movie TBH, way too many plotholes and inconsistancies. Then theres the 70% of it just being unfunny hijinks,childish humour... and poor CGI

Goku oddly out of character near the end and Gohan just being so useless as always.

Why would he revert to SSJ? According to the scene though he was still in Mystic form and went SSJ ontop of it....what?

Then there's Vegeta allegedly a SSJ2 who looked entirely SSJ1 but surpassed a Mastered SSJ3?...What?

Then there's Gotenks NOT going straight SSJ3 for no reason...

Well this is the thread pertaining to any discussion on that movie..

[SingleFringe&Sparks]

I don't want a Battle of Gods sequel, I'd prefer another original story rather than seing Bills again and the other Gods of Destruction.

I wish they could have used the movies to flesh out the backstories of the villains who seriously lacked it like Broly and Buu. Granted Broly is non canon but he has the widest fanbase among the movie villains: but 2 other movies past his debut and stil nothing... I hate the mindless lunatic he just is... I want to at least know WHY he hates Goku so much or how his childhood was.... him hating Goku just because of his crying is stupid..... and Buu just being a random monster is.... uragh.... I had hoped BoG would at least do that... tie Beers in some way to Buu/Babidi or Bibidi in a prologue rather than Freeza who should be long irrelevant... the whole SSJGod appearing on Planet Vegeta just sounds so lazy... Its a shame not much thought at all besides Akira's contribution of Beers and Whis were put into this movie.

I decided to go back and re-watch battle of gods again and it got me thinking. Do you guys think we'll ever find out who the original Super Saiyan God was on planet Vegeta? not that it really needs to be shown but just curious...

We did learn who the original Super Saiyan was. It was Bardock.

I wish people would stop treating that special as canon because it won't work. Bardock cant be the direct legend or it will just create a new plothole and paradox. Its already established that time travel cant undo events that already happened and considering how weak bardock was to even achieve the form is just.... uragh....
