So it is SSJ3 Gohan, Cool! It seems he's rocking the SSJ3 Vegetto hair style.

He jumped from Super Saiyan 2 to Ultimate within the series, so what real point does him getting SS3 have? Unless this is supposed to be him training again after he "thinks he can still go SS"... xD

Of course Heroes never really gives explanations for these new forms, so we'll probably never know why he's back in the Piccolo outfit with this transformation.
Maybe this is supposed to be a "what-if Gohan trained during the 7 years".

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.

Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. 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.

Well that leaves us SSJ3 Xeno Trunks and SSJ Saiyan Saga Vegeta/SSJ Tarble.

I'd be moderately surprised if they were advertising SS Tarble, considering his normal form still isn't in the game.

Well we know the other is SSJ3 Xeno Trunks. The guy in the middle obviously has the Freeza armor not to mention he seems rather small. Pair that with the spiky hair and it has to be either SSJ Saiyan Arc Vegeta (which isn't new per say, he was a what id in Budokai 1) or SSJ Tarble as the hair does not match up with his base.

Eh. It's not an exact match, but not all the Heroes artwork is perfectly on model either.

Then again, with them tossing Gohan back into the Piccolo outfit, who knows. I still think it's just regular Tarble though.

I love how SSJ3 Adult Gohan looks from the snippet. Combine that with the namekian clothing and he looks fantastic.

That Gohan looks great. If he kept training that's pretty much how I'd see his appearance. Besides the extra bang. But I still like the bangs because they give a more Mirai Gohan look to it.

I think giving him two bangs is to differentiate him from SSJ3 Goku. Don't see why they couldn't have given him the blue gi he used as a teen, but I guess this is cool, if a bit random.

Xenoverse already did the bold one in a Parallel Quest. Also you forgot to say SSJ Pan. Hell let's throw in SSJ Bra because it's Heroes.

Wasn't Namek arc Vegeta that got SS in XenoVerse? Saiyan arc Vegeta gets it in Budokai 1, and he can also transform with that outfit in Burst Limit.

There was no reason to. He's only talking about the 3 Jump Carnival 2015 silhouettes from a page or two back.

Bra has more potential to become a Super Saiyan than Pan does honestly seeing as Bra is still half Saiyan like Goten and Trunks while Pan is only a third. Though I guess you could say thats offset by the fact all we ever saw Bra do was shop and be a brat while Pan was out fighting with Trunks and her grandpa.

Potential my foot. It was never stated that heritage amount determined whether you could go SSJ or not. DBO even showed Humans who were decedents of Goku/Vegeta could achieve the form via wishing (although whether that is simply a gameplay mechanic or actual lore is debatable). The guidebook even says they could unlock their latent Saiyan potential and bring back that immeasurable power.

I mean, you're pretty open about looking at cartoon porn. Why would you do that? It's fiction. The proportions of these women are not possible to reach in reality.

Goku Jr. could transform as easily as Goten & Trunks could, and he is 1/64th Saiyan, not to menton the Saiyan decendants from DBO who can also turns SS, and they are from 100 years after Goku Jr's generation. Pan being 1/4th Saiyan shouldn't mean anything.

Because that means giving Gohan something worthwhile and meaningful.
