So we can't make kid characters like Son Goten? What a shame..
We've seen character art of a kid character, just no gameplay.
There will obviously be different body types as shown by the trailer and character art. So far it seems like we have at least 4, maybe 5: Kid (Goten), Short (Vegeta), Normal (Goku), Tall (Broli), and maybe larger bodies like "LSS" Broli. We're just limited to making Saiyans, rather they have a tail or not.
I don't think they've shown all those bodytypes. There might be a shorter adult built, considering the one guy with red skin and Saiyan armor, but I'm not even sure if he was really shorter. If he was though, that still just makes it three body types confirmed so far: Kid, Short Adult and Adult.
BTW, it seems it will be impossible to create most of the characters, since we've pretty much had leaked confirmation of only being able to create Saiyans.
As long as the tail can be removed, there'll still be quite a few options. Really, most Saiyans in the show didn't even have tails most of the time. Making it obligatory will be just stupid...

I wonder if we'll be able to change the hair color of the SSJ form of a character.

It seems that Gohan Figure that comes with the Limited Edition isn't exclusive to the game.

Concept art shows the kid size, the trailer shows the character in Vegeta's battle jacket who is around Vegeta/17's size, the main "hero" is Goku's size, and some of the images of the characters in the Broli/Berserker outfit show 'em looking bigger than the other characters....the last one may not actually be bigger than the other characters, but he looks like it. The "LSS" Broli size was just an assumption to make use of most of the body sizes.

Nah, it would be ridiculous. It's like adding wings to Oozarus and a nose to Kuririn...

James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Why don't you just post the links to huge pictures like that?
Not trying to backseat mod or anything, but scrolling through big pics can be annoying.

One thing I just thought of about fighting with the new Avatars for the game......there is [so far] no way to guage how strong your opponent is.

For example, If you pick SS Goku and they pick Kid Buu, you know who has the "advantage" so to speak but if you have two randomly created avatars fighting, youwon't really know what you're up against until you are in the battle learning their moves/strength as you go along.

I hope the entire SSJ form is customizable like a different character! :D Although I probably will be disappointed. :cry:

But, really, it could allow for some rather nice additions, like a character transforming into a fusion, rather than a Super Saiyan (They've shown the Fusion outfit already), a character turning into different Super Saiyan forms, or even to make characters that aren't Saiyans, if we're allowed to remove the tail.

Also, I've been thinking about it, and, even with all restrictions shown so far, and even assuming we can't remove tails, at the very least, this editor can be easily used to add Kid Goku into the game.

I believe they might be holding out the goodies for DLC

If the character creator is as limited as it seems then I certainly hope they do release some DLC.

Let's hope it's not like Raging Blast 2 was, a fucking pre-order bonus.

They don't look that bad in motion during gameplay, so no big deal to me.

TBH, they look like turds. They could've put some fur dynamics on them like with Great Ape Baby.

I skipped RB2, but was excited to hear that we have a CaC. But upon taking the time to to examine these limitations, my excitement has dampened a bit. (As I knew it inevitably would, but hey, I rarely get excited about games.)

Of course, there may be a few more surprises up this game's sleeve, so I'm not off-board yet.

Even if I did want to make an evil Namekian in Saiyan armor!
