You mean that one?

He is a Super Saiyan in that one. The description has the Super Saiyan icon.

And how do you know that the one you & I posted is the Super Saiyan 2 card?

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.

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.

So I take it you've already checked all the other ones to make sure there aren't any previously unreported Super Saiyan 2's. Right?

All the other SS Gohan cards have "Super Saiyan" written on them.

They have pretty much everything but the new Jinzoningen Avatars up for viewing, but it doesn't look like there is anything we missed...

I'll take that as confirmation that Gohan only used Super Saiyan during the Baby arc, and Vegeta used Super Saiyan in his fight with Gohan & Goten, but used Super Saiyan 2 when he powered-up & blew away Gohan & Goten (only for Baby to possess him).

As for what they are in the Super #17 & Evil Dragons arcs, it remains to be seen...

I find it funny that all they'd have to do to make a SSJ2 Gohan & Vegeta card is just say they're SSJ2 and if they're in the mood, add an extra spike or two.

Or they could do the same thing they did with the Saiyan Avatars and not change a thing. :/

God damned moon speak. Some cards state their form on the top and some don't, this is really confusing.

So...um...the Jinzoningen avatars have different outfits implemented from the beginning, even though they were added in after the GM switch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipNnOGJG5s0

Mini Super #17 and that Cell Hero look very awesome after the switch!

He looks like the "black" one on here:

No one cares about character names, but maybe you might care about this? :P '

Potential new Heroes news courtesy of pekindaq's twitter. I don't understand the chicken-scratch, obviously, and various translators are only moderately helpful here, but it seems the next issue of V-Jump will be giving us a new, stronger version of a popular character. Be warned though, as much as some of us were wanting this, the actual art doesn't make much sense compared to every other one we've seen throughout the franchise...

"「Vジャンプ10月特大号(8月21日発売)ドラゴンボールヒーローズ応募者全員大サービス!!のカードで出現!! あのDBの大人気キャラがパワーアップ!?」という気になる穴が…
このキャラは・・・!誰がどう見てもアレ・・・ですよね!ブーツや手袋のデザインが変わってる所を見ると、原作の最終話近辺ではなくてGT版の悟天+トランクスという事なのか!?"
