Favorite DB Toy?
For the people who grew up playing with Dragon Ball toys as a kid, which one was your favorite. I loved the Super Battle Collection figures from Bandai as a kid. Unlike kids in the US, I was playing the Japanese bandai figures. I own most of them as a kid and the SSj4 Gogeta figure was my favorite as a kid. I never like the DBZ toys that they made in the 90's and early 2000's in the US as a kid since they never look show accurate as the Japanese toys.

Re: Favorite DB Toy?
By the time I found the show I was already wrapping up high school, so there wasn't much playing with action figures

That being said, my favorite figure will always be Kuririn packaged alongside the bazooka. 'Cuz Barry Watson lolz.

Re: Favorite DB Toy?
I remember seeing that at KBToys years ago. I also remember those large scale figures that they did in the US with the movie villains. I remember my friend had one for Metal Coola and I remember it looking pretty good.

Re: Favorite DB Toy?
My favorite figure I collected as a young'un would easily be my Super Battle Collection Vol.00 Son Goku:

I really wish I hadn't given it away to a friend as a gift... especially since he's no longer a DBZ fan.

Nothing matters (in a cosmic sense.) Have a good time.

I used to have a SSJ Goku toy figure wearing That Saiyajin armor he was wearing while training with Gohan in the Time Chamber. now it's gone missing, i don't know where it is anymore.
Re: Favorite DB Toy?
my favorite toy was Adult Gohan from the Jaaks Pacific line Ultimate Figure Series of 2004- that toy had incredible articulation
lost it a long time ago, though, during a move

Re: Favorite DB Toy?
I don't even have to think about that!

This was one of my first DB related bits of merchandise I bought besides fan-subbed VHS tapes. The store I got my tapes from had these figures, but they were $25.00 to $30.00 so it was a toss up between actual episodes I could watch or buying one of these figures. I always passed on the figures but wanted them so bad. Eventually I did buy one. Vegeta! My favorite character in all of the DB series. I mean, look how awesome this whole presentation is! The figure in a box with a nice image of the character right there and that sexy ass Japanese writing. This is why I loved the Super Battle Collection.

The Super Battle Collection figures are great. I almost bought the SSJ4 Gogeta figure the other day on Ebay for the nostalgia and someone out bid me

Re: Favorite DB Toy?
Hmm.. I liked the Irwin DBZ figures when I was a kid. My favorite from that line was easily SSJ Gohan...

I've only ever had one SBC figure, which was Freeza. It's the only figure that I still have from my childhood.

I have a Dragon Ball collection of sorts which can be seen here.

Re: Favorite DB Toy?
It sucks that they stop selling DBZ toys at local toy stores years ago. I do feel kinda bad for kids who watch Kai on CW or Nick-Toons since they can't find Kai toys at Toys R Us or Target. They have to ask their parents to use Amazon to buy the toys for them. Nothing beats the feel of going to the toy store as a kid and buying the new action figure you wanted so badly.
