Oh, a new form for Vegetto? Whatever it is I can't wait to see what it is soon!
That's Xeno Vegetto from Heroes. i think.
Thanks for the 411. Never played Heroes so I didn't recognize the artwork.

None of us have. It's just all knowledge of the leaks from the Heroes thread.

That drawing of Vegetto is pretty bad

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Gohan is going to be fine, Piccolo on the other hand seems more like a minor character and most likely be used as tool hype for U9.

When was the last time Piccolo won a fight?

Outside of FT, when was the last time anyone outside of Goku and Vegeta from the main original cast won a fight? You can say that for anyone.

Gohan beat Watagash Barry on Episode 74.

Krillin beat his inner demons last week, saved Goku from fake Zarama, and he also gained a powerup in the process.

Yamcha won the baseball game, but that was a gag episode(and funny one).

I'm talking the big fish or a major villain's henchman. Not a blonde actor who gets possessed by aliens, or Krillin putting on his big boy pants to beat mere illusions.

Gohan won against Tagoma/Ginyu (ROF Super) and Shisami (ROF Movie). Both were Freeza's strongest henchmen.

Yeah true. But he got one punched by First form Freeza and that caused a riot lol.

I think the uni 9 match people are referring to as a warm-up has much more possibility of being a qualifier. If only half of the teams made it to the tourney it'd be a lot easier on the staff. All the gods are at the tourney which would be a little odd but I think half of them will be spectators.

If it was a serious promotional picture it would not have the kids in it or the other fighters in ranger gear.

I think the characters who have done nothing in the last few episodes will be the big players in the tournament. Vegeta, Piccolo, Buu and Tien.

And a well deserved one. Freeza final form should be the one to do it and then Goku would take it from there.

Gohan was in base form though, in DBS Frieza caught him offguard and lasered the hell out of him.

17 should be a fairly good treatment, otherwise why bother to bring him back?

17 would definitely play a decently good role that's true. It would be cool to see him and Piccolo tag team in a fight in the tournament as they did have a great fight back in Z.

why you automaticly assume it will be in that episode?
But the preview says Goku is recruiting for 2 allies, if he had 8 people recruited already he would use 2 of them, logically speaking.
That's assuming the battle will be 3 vs 3. The preview description might just mean that Goku already had a 8 man team and only is missing two to complete it, which is why he needs to recruit two allies.

Piccolo can't be used as a hype tool. He is an underdog. You can't be both.

There should be various different team battles based on that magazine section. 17 and Piccolo would seem very likely. I also want to see Piccolo and Vegeta team up since they both take no shit and would probably annihilate whoever they face.

It is Vegeta's job to show the audience how strong someone else is. Piccolo usually has a good chance of beating someone when he fights.

My thoughts exactly. Gohan pushing Freeza to use his Final Form until Goku arrives would be something that would improve that crap F movie

About Fem Broly I wonder what will she do in the show.

I think she is Cabbas sister because he got triggered when Vegeta told him he was going to kill his family(when he was provoking him so he could turn SSJ). Toriyama might make her shipping material and who knows maybe she will end up with Frost? It cant be any weirder than Mai and Trunks right?
