My only complaint is that his neck is very pink. It looks like he has sunburn on his chest lol. I havn't opened up Goku yet, but I'm not really excited about him. These are definitly unique figures.
Yeah apart from the skin tone colouring everything else looks good on them right?

Yea. I mean so far I've only opened Vegeta. He's sitting on my work station right now :P. He looks great. And this guy is packing! That suit is SKIN tight! Looks like he's wearing a cup.

Yeah they emphasized his "parts" quite a lot, lol. But I mean come on he's one of the last tow pure blooded survivors of his race, he needs to have some girth so he can impregnate many women and bring back the Saiyans, lol well he settled down with Slutma... I mean Bulma, but still... lol.

That King Vegeta figure looks so awesome.

I guess my most recent purchase is pre-ordering Dragon Box 6.

If they had King Vegeta in a better pose I'd consider getting it, I'm 15 hours from buying my standby items on Ebay.

eBay. I'll probably double up on the set when it's on Angolz.

Well, I finally ordered DBox 5. First one I was not able to pre-order.

Congrats on finishing off Los Chibi! iI'm dismantling that display when I get it anyway I'm so hyped for the new figures coming out that LoS doesn't appeal to me that much. (The Tenkaichi figures make LoS look tame, so prepare for a new display!)

Yeah I have to figure out how I'm going to fit those new figures in my self. If I ever got more shelving space it would be an easy fit, but that plan has kind of fallen through at the moment.

Just thought I'd share with you all, Dragon Box 6 (piccolo) is only $30.99 USD pre-order on amazon.com so if you're in the UK it's below the Tax level :) comes to $37 after shipping which is between £20-£25.
Oh and Wild Style DX figures, both of them together are £12 from Auc-toysanta on Rakuten.
Next to get; Leged of Saiyan figures and Freeza's force

If anyone sees
Any of the Legend of Saiyan line going cheapish
Or any other Banpresto DBZ figure :)

If anyone has a cooler steelbook dvd that wants to sell it (prefer new but used is fine) when/if the dragon box movies comes out contact me :)

How much is the tax level in the UK?

I pre-ordered Dragonball Z Kai Part 5 Blu-ray myself, its only $18.99 on amazon.

Wow guys, it has been FOREVER since I've been on the forums. I just got so busy with the end of the school year...
Anyway since I was last on I bought Dragon Box 4 (when it was $25 at Best Buy), 5 more GT DVD singles (only five more to go!) and best of all my Wild Style Vegeta arrived from HLJ a few weeks ago. While I see that the reception to these figures here has been pretty lukewarm, I absolutely love him. I think he is perfect. He is definitely the centerpiece of my Vegeta figure collection.

After a bit of a stall period, I just placed my order for this little gem... which is kind of on one hand a waste of money (I'm not a huge watcher of GT, I have both the singles and "Season Sets" for it), but on the other, I feel is a necessary part of my collection:

I'm only interested in the Tenkaichi Figure of Super Saiyan Goku Battle Damaged, I would be jumping off the walls about the SS3 Goku Figure in the Series but its colors are a joke to me.

The picture is from Ebay (couldn't find one on Image Google or Yahoo), but I bought it from a contact that I made when buying the Dragon Ball Dragon Box who has the rest of them up for sale that I'm going to be buying. I haven't gotten the GT Dragon Box yet, so had to put up an Ebay picture.

£18, if you use a fast shipping method you'll get done, if you use something from Japan like SAL, you can get away with much higher prices, good thing about amazon is they mark the package with the value but not the shipping cost so if it's under $40 you shouldn't get taxed, I can't wait, still need box 5 though I'm waiting for it to be under $35, even though it's got my favourite part of the series (Gohan Vs Cell) :)
