He appears to have more color in this one, I am not disappointed I will give this movie a shot and support it. Only for the sole reason of seeing their re-imagined Vegeta in the sequel then if that sucks I will complain. :)
The Saiyans are very much like the Klingons and Jem'Hadar.

Wow, he looks more like a character out of Stargate then Dragonball. :shock:

Like I said, it doesn't change a thing for me. It just looks like another example of a lot of the other things I've seen about this movie. No shock, surprise, horror, or anger here.

So he disguises himself to be more human-looking.. wasn't that mentioned in some rumor a while back?

Not totally surprising, since this will parallel Goku's facade.

Yeah he looks like one of the Ori Priors from the original Stargate series.

I wish I could've been one of the fans to feel relieved at the sight of Goku on the bike. I d'no what it was about that picture that still disappointed me; Whether it was the bike, or the distinctly non-"City of the Future" parking lot.. Maybe what Chatku was wearing or the fact that Chatwin just doesn't resemble Goku to me...
But now that I've had time to process it, the fact that he's holding a drumstick in that picture is like a cherry on top of a shit sundae to me.

Now we have a nice, clear picture of Piccolo. No one's been able to clarify for me whether or not this is "Old" Piccolo before he gets his wish (thus prolonging the hope that a green Piccolo will still show up in the movie), or similarly whether or not the armor-clad Piccolo fighting Chatku in what seemed to me like the climactic battle of the movie was the "young" version.

I'm not saying this is the end, oh the sky is falling. I'm just saying I'll maintain my disappointment until I see green Piccolo.
As far as Piccolo is considered, anyway.

Romulan in Prior clothing? Interesting.

I still think he looks like Saddler from Resident Evil 4 with that hood on.

Yes, very. Especially considering that the Romulans want to sabotage the summit where Piccolo Daimao is negotiating for rights to the Ori clothing line.

Decent photo of Piccolo...he looks kinda old.
The series doesn't start with the arrival of Raditz. Stop being lazy and watch Dragonball.

More pics up. HQ of Piccolo.

I'm liking the cheekbones, but that's about it.

Still looks like he had a run-in with a bad brand of tanning lotion.
Or ate a lot of corn.


I hope he turns greener by the end of the film.
On hiatus.

I'm all for the movie but I do wish that Piccolo was more... well, Piccolo.

Oh god, after that Clone Wars crap I do not want to see another new Star Wars movie. DB works totally fine for me.

Wow, Piccolo looks like...someone with mild cirrhosis of the liver. In an elaborate robe. ;p
