Was anyone ever a fan of the DBZ model kits?

Man, I had a Gogeta and Gotenks one, but I lost them., these were my favorite toys of all time.

Dude...do they still make these? I'd love to get some and put them together!

I had only 1: Tenshinhan.

Don't remember when I bought it, I lost all the pieces and he fell apart really quickly.

I don't remember when I saw him, but when I did, he had most of his body intact, just with no head, arms, or hands.

They used to sell those at dollar tree...I remember buying all of them, but I don't remember where they went.

They were cool!

I have three: Vegeta, Goku, and SSJ Goku. All of them unopened. Tried selling them in a yard sale for $10 each and cheapskate people wouldn't buy them. Then some kid tried to open the SSJ Goku one and ended up damaging the bit of the box. Also have some sticker residue on them because it was hot the day I was trying to sell them. So yeah, I still have them.

Me and my friend always used to build them together! They were sold at the dollar store. Putting the clothes on was hell.

Oh man, the memories! I imported some of those in the late 90's. I had Gohan and the Trunks and Goten pack. My cousin later on picked up Gogeta and Super Saiyan 3 Goku from an import store. Once these sets were released in America, my brother bought Future Trunks. I loved these figures. My most memorable moment was how damn difficult it was to put on the pants!

I (or one of my brothers, at least) had the Goku one... really hard to put together though. And it kept falling apart, lol. Wow, that was a while ago actually. I think we still have it around somewhere, though I wouldn't know where to look.

I had Cell Saga SSJ Gohan at one point. It was pretty awesome building it (Like others said the clothes are annoying to put on) and having it on display in a nice pose.

Then my dog annihilated it.

I've seen a few of these at a (somewhat) local Comics and collectibles shop. Thought about picking them up.

I have a SSj Goku & Piccolo model on my bookshelf. Unfortunately, I never got a Vegeta model.

I never cared about models of any kind, so just ignored them when I saw them. Now I'm wishing I'd gotten some with saiyan armor so Freeza Henchmen would be easy to create.

Though, I didn't realize there were so many...

These were ok. I really don't like the way they were packaged in those twist out plastic cage things, it always left stupid off colored knobs on everything which just looks sloppy.

SuperSaiyan3Goku · Post by **SuperSaiyan3Goku** » Wed Jan 09, 2008 6:13 pm

My Tenshinhan figure has a few broken ribs, I'm sure. You can feel his broken bones moving in his shirt.

I wonder if I can find that...

That's the same with most models though -- you've just gotta bust out the x-acto knife.

But yeah, I had one of these that I wasn't super impressed with. Now the Gundam models were something else.

Yeah, I have a few of them. There was a local comic book store that had a bunch of them, so I bought all the ones they had and put them together. Digging through the "Show off you Dragonball crap" thread, I managed to find the picture I took of them a long time ago:

Agreeance with the people above who said the pants are a bitch to put on
