Does anyone know where this image is from?

Post by Kabijin » Thu Feb 10, 2005 7:21 pm

I found this image awhile back, and I'm still confused on where it came from. It has to be from DBGT or at least the end of DBZ because of the outfits presented (ie. Goku's bluish outfit), but I don't remember this from any episode. Or maybe it's just me ... can anyone verify where and what episode/movie this image came from? It seems maybe like the beginning of DBGT, but I am still unsure because I don't recall Vegeta and Goku fighting. However, I could be wrong cause it's been so long since I have seen the beginning of DBGT (7 years ago). Thanks.

That's from a video game opening, and I'm fairly sure that game is Final Bout.

Except we've got an entire gallery of images from the Final Bout opening, and it's not there.

It's very close, but it's not from the actual game's opening. Perhaps some promotional artwork for it?

It look like it could be a 'cel edit'. Someone took a cel of Goku getting hit and one of Vegeta punching and overlaped them. Maybe... not sure.

The background is defintely Photoshopped. That I can tell you. I'd wager money someone took a frame from the Final Bout intro, cut out the background, and put in the red backdrop.

You can tell it's not from GT because Vegeta, well, looks like Vegeta. :wink:

That IS from the Final Bout intro, just with a red background. There are so many alterd DB pictures on the net, this is just one of the many.

Agreed. Look at the way the fist is connecting with Goku: it's not. Live-action characters take air hits and get stunned, not cartoon ones. And the red bg looks like an insane zoom-in on planet Vegeta from the Bardock special.

It can't be from the actual Final Bout opening. Vegeta only punches Goku in the face, not in the stomach.
