Gogeta Base Design?

Post by Gyt Kaliba » Mon Feb 04, 2013 9:12 pm

I always forget until I start to think about movie 12 that Gogeta shows up automatically in Super Saiyan form. As far as I know, we've never really seen an appearance of him in his base form in any game or anything, only ever Super Saiyan and Super Saiyan 4 (well, SS3 too, for Heroes I guess). But was there ever a design in a guidebook or something of him in his base form?

I'd imagine it looks more or less like Veku only...not fat and short...but I'm curious as to whether any official artwork of him as such exists.

I have a theory that his hair would be like Gotenk's twizzler blend, minus the purple.

To be perfectly honest, I couldn't care less about the fans a re-issue might alienate because if all they're concerned about is being able to scalp the people who were either unaware of the Dragon Boxes or couldn't afford them at the time, they're just leeches and deserve to have their greed backfire on them.

I stand corrected, huh. I completely forgot about that, that does count kinda. Beyond that though...I don't think they gave him a base form in Heroes along with his SS3 form, did they? I know they never gave it to him in the Tenkaichi games anyway.

Just imagine his SSJ form, except with black hair and no yellow aura surrounding him.

If something is truly perfect, that's IT! The bottom line becomes there is no room for imagination! No space for intelligence or ability or improvement! Do you understand? To men of science like us, perfection is a dead end, a condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you but not perfect! Scientist's agonize over the attempt to achieve perfection! That's the kind of creatures we are! We take joy in trying to exceed our grasp, in trying to reach for something that in the end, we have to admit may in fact be unreachable!"

Well does fat Gogeta count? That was a base Gogeta :lol: .

Gogeta Jr. drew what was to be his base perfect form:

I’ve always through there was marketing potential from the video games offering normal base Gogeta as one of those "Characters who has NEVER EVER appeared in Dragon Ball Video Games EVER before”

It's safe to say that base Gogeta's hairstyle would be the same as fat Gogeta's (Veku's).
Also I believe that Gogeta's widow's peak is not as "big" as Vegeta's. It's more like between Goku and Vegeta's.

I agree. Especially since the various weight classes of Gotenks had identical hair.
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

I completely forgot that the hair didn't change with the failed Gotenks fusions. Well, that synches it for me then - he would have the same hair as 'Veku'.

Still, that does make me wonder why he's never really appeared in such a form in some playable form in a game. It's fine to give random new Super Saiyan 3 transformations, but not a base form that we know exists? :roll:

Yep, as others said, he would logically have Veku's hairstyle, meaning his Super Saiyan form but with black hair and black eyes.
I edited the "Character Project" renders to give you an idea of what base Gogeta is like:

I think his hair will likely look similar to Vegito's hair. I personally think Gogeta's base form should have hair similar to Goku's hair in his base form.

I really love those drawings, especially what DragonBallKaiHD posted where he still has his green SSJ eyes. Illogical but kinda cool.
