Now Toma and Young Vegeta are playable too?
Jeez, this game makes me more and more sad when I hear more good news and none of it comes to America.

Vegeta childhood! Nice.
Don't sad dude, don't forget this is barely a game. You just press a button and waggle your card. The coolest thing in my opinion are the cards themselves.
So I think now they've covered all the characters related to Freeza, with the exception of Zarbon in monster form and Kyabira, so far.

GM6 card list is up on the official site.

Confirmed new characters this set:
Vegeta (Childhood)
Nappa (Adolescent)
Kyui
Zarbon - Transformed
Toma
Selypa
Totepo
Panbukin
King Vegeta - Oozaru

Oddly enough, they seem to be holding out on Gohan (Future) - Base, SS and Trunks (Future) - Base, SS until after Ultimate Mission actually releases, despite having them already be playable via a GM5 mission.

Also, the new animated trailer (the animation is broken up, will look for the seemless version later) depicts Freeza, Goku and Nappa watching Birusu descend from a Dimensional Transfer thingy, so he'll probably be the SEC, meaning no actual new transformations this set.

Look at those delicious looking cards! I love Vegeta: Childhood and Nappa: Adolescence looks awesome. Finally Zarbon... wait, is he Transformed or Hidden Force? Kyui has a white armour in his first card by the way. Toma and Selypa look as badass as usual and wow look at Totepo go! He looks quite vicious for such a quiet type. Nice giant transformation cards. It's a monkey mayhem :3
Huh, just noticed that Paragus is oddly absent from the Saiyan get-together. At this point I wouldn't mind seeing is younger self in the game as well.

Hm, the Great Apes appear to sit outside of the playing field.
I wonder if that means you can only have one at a time.

Maybe we'll see Kid Broly as a playable character along with Young Paragus.

If at all, not until next set since the card list is already out. Really wouldn't want them anyway unless it leads to us finally getting Broli's base form for his regular cards too...

Anyway, as promised people, full version of the GM6 animated trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCJsShkFCBo I thought we might see Bardock's crew in it, but it ended up not really being all that special.

I can't unsee TFS's Bardock's "FREEZA! FREEZA!" when I watch this; it's a chain of "DBH creates new Bardock-special-related animation reminding me of EoB reminding me of TFS's abridgement of EoB and thus Bardock shouting "FREEZA!"." and causing me to grin when I otherwise wouldn't be all that entertained by this DBH clip. Thank you TFS. You and the "violent savior". X3

Also, I thought Trunks pretty much indirectly barred Goku from being allowed to time-travel; so it's fun to see him actually doing it. XD
Thank you for sharing the link!

Erm... So I guess these guys are okay with altering history? Time Patrol Trunks would be very angry with these assholes.

By the way, we never got full animated shorts for Set 6, Set 8, Galaxy Mission 2 and Galaxy Mission 4, or have we? I've got videos for 6, 8 and GM2 but they're the ones interlaced with gameplay and stuff. Haven't got one for GM4, must have missed it. Help?

Awesome quality for a DBH video, anyone knows where find the trailer of Turles in that quality?

It's normally translated to "adolescence" but "young" is much better.

Probably. Nappa is the only one that makes the naming scheme sound odd, as before he was introduced, it was only used on Gohan, Trunks and Uub. Here are the various terms if you want to give me something to work with for future characters:
幼年期
少年期
青年期

For the GT versions of Vegeta, Gohan, Goten, and Trunks, we haven't gotten any other form other than base, Super Saiyan, and Baby possessed forms (and SS3 for Trunks), right? Like Super Saiyan 2?

I wonder if Gohan & Vegeta will get Super Saiyan 2 in DBH, or even Ultimate Gohan. If they don't, then none of them turned into SS2 in GT for me. We know via Perfect Files that they didn't turn SS2 in Baby arc, but maybe they did against Super #17 & Super Yi Xing Long. Heck, even Gohan has a small chance to have powered-up into his Ultimate form against Rild. Infinite World had GT Vegeta only in base, SS, and SS4, but not SS2.

The Perfect Files are wrong. Goku used SS2 against Rild.

If it's their own books explaining their own show, how are they wrong?

I don't really care one way or the other, but wanted to at least play devil's advocate on it...

(Insert ye' olden "Nappa had electricity and wasn't SSJ2" statement here.)

Because it contradicts what actually happened in the show?
