Is that going to become available on other sites soon for cheaper? Or have it passed already?

I never wanted a figure so much before in my life! Please tell that it hasn't been released yet and I didn't miss my chance to snatch this up?

No, it hasn't been released yet... it's from the 2nd set of the Dragonball SCulture series

Glad i'm not the only one who didn't know. when does it release and will it be the same price as the others have been? i see preorder prices but they are 47$ compared to the other ones that were cheaper than that?

They're probably going to be around the same price as the Z Scultures.. So about $20 a piece + w/e it costs to ship it.
I have a Dragon Ball collection of sorts which can be seen here.

That's easily one of the best Goku figures I've ever seen.

I must not let myself miss this lot... there are some fantastic figures coming.

They have been out for a while and the first picture is a set that you put with the other ones with Turles and the two short purple guys(never bothered to learn their names). The Cooler one is good imo but I just thought his face looked a bit odd from some shots so didn't end up getting him. The Vegeta is pretty nice too except the way it was painted the white parts are sometimes in just odd looking spots(like his crotch). The way they are painted(at least for a few of them like Vegeta) isn't always consistent either depending on who you buy it from.

Edit: On a side note does this forum turn the funimation names into the original names O.o Turles Turle s ......IT DOES O.o

Not sure where to toss this, and I'm hoping they are originally Japanese molds so it's relevant...

But could someone identify which specific figures these are? I'd like to update with a link to them, but I guess I would need to know what they are :).

Looks like a rerelease of the Bandai Master Grade Figurerise Goku and SS Goku model kits, though colored a little differently. Maybe a "Z" release as apposed to the bight "Kai" release? Dunno... Here are the originals:

Tell me something guys, the Bandai Digital Grade Series has been discontinued, right? It's a pity, I was collecting those, I've got tons from the previous series too. Have they made a new similar series though?

I'm pretty sad too. I believe it has been, because there hasn't been any updates on that?

I really wanted to see a Perfect Cell, and Androids 16-18 from them too :(, could have made those 4 and like an instant transmission stance Goku or something.
Otaku at heart.

Yeah I was looking forward for those and 14 too. And possibly Trunks and Broli in Super Saiyan 3.

Banpresto should make super detailed 8'' Boo(Gotenks absorbed) and Janemba sculptures. That would be my dream!
Gohan: At least he doesn't have his sword out anymore.
Kuririn: Yeah, and your dad put his finger away too.
