lol why would you do that, at most 70$ if not cheaper, 100$ from where?
The one hundred was on amazon lol it was the cheapest I could find checking all of the ebay sellers and other stores I knew. If you know a place that has him for cheaper enlighten me please.
Um all I did was type in :"figuarts gohan" in ebay:

Aha. I always searched "sh gohan" but it seems they'll all listed as "S.H." nevertheless that US seller who has one for auction looks pretty good. Thanks for the help.

Wow...The hair looks a bit off, actually. But I suppose the SSJ looked a bit curvy before I got it too and it ends up being accurate in its own way.

That doesn't look too bad. Does anyone know where they sell those stands that they use in those pictures to hold him up?

It'd be really cool if they made a villain Figuarts for once... I almost feel like that they could've just included the normal Goku head in the SSJ Goku Figuarts...
I have a Dragon Ball collection of sorts which can be seen here.

The colours would be off with a super saiyan light orange outfit and normal head.

I'm sure Bandai has a good reason for not including it...

It looks like a
Stage ACT.4 Tamashii Stand from Bandai. They are available in plenty of other colors and types(for different types of posing like static or something more dynamic).
If you're not here soon... GET ON!

Yes! I LOVE the hair, and really like the general look of him (he looks especially cool when I put him in the pose from the Cell Games when he's about to Instant Transmission and is waving goodbye). He doesn't have the versatility of Piccolo, with only two heads/faces and no folded arms or cape piece, but something about him (probably the brighter colours) just stands out more, and he looks great on the desk.

Now that the SCultures are out/about to come out, has anyone seen somewhere to get them? I've checked HLJ and Angolz, but they don't turn up any results; they're all over eBay, but I don't like that most of the sellers are from Hong Kong.
On another note, the base Goku Figuart looks nice, but I wish they'd do more than Gohan, Piccolo, Vegeta and 4 different Goku's.

Seriously, what is the current news on the "sculture" figures? It's so damn difficult to find info on these. When is Vegeta coming out?

November.
(Apparently, they're some sort of prize)

Goku and Gohan should be popping up on sites at the end of this week to next week, Keep in mind Banpresto has a huge ban on prize figures being sold outside of Japan on online shops becuase apparently too much revenue was going to international online sales and not enough to arcade/game center sales, so now proxies/shops, win / buy up the lots and then resell the figures. Banpresto items are becoming a little bit harder to find, but rest assured they'll pop up. I already know a few sites that have them up for preorder, so don't fret too much.

i buy has closed pre orders until the release date though but they usually have it for cheap
that's all for now, I expect Angolz and Hobby Link Japan will have them soon enough and maybe other places like play asia, otacute, and amiami (possibly), and also Mandarake
