Mike's Upcoming JPNS Toy Releases Thread

I found this on the Henshin Justice forms. Beware of the S.H Figuarts bootlegs!

Wow, those are atrocious!

Just when I thought bootleggers were starting to put in a tad bit more effort these days...

this Master Stars piece vegeta looks like a cheap chinese fake to me until i see more official looking press images.

Those are legit images. Final product might look slightly worst.

Banplanet does the official photos for prize items from Banpresto
The funny thing is, the final product won't even look as good as these photos...

[Kingdom Heartless]

I know it's not a perfect looking figure, but I don't actually have any really large Dragon Ball figures, so I pre-ordered this yesterday:

Oh yeah I totally agree with you, I`m just saying the final quality won`t be as good as the photos we see right now, it MIGHT be, MSP Goku actually was pretty good minus the dark skin tone, so I remain super optimistic for Vegeta

So, I'm slightly disappointed by something in regards to the Kuririn figure (not that I was planning to get it ASAP though, but still) - it was actually listed on RightStuf, which would make ordering it a lot easier, but already it's listed as 'no longer available for purchase'. Bah! BAH I say. Guess I will have to venture outside of my usual ordering comfort zones to order it later after all.

Nothin' wrong with Amazon!

Or Big Bad Toy Store!

[Metalwario64]

Amazon has better prices and free shipping for orders $35 and over. Unless they don't carry something, they're my first resort.

The Kamehameha effect piece looks great so far. I guess it's the D-Arts Mewtwo Shadow Ball, but remolded.



I'm hoping we more figuarts next year since it's the 30th anniversary. Given that Bandai Tamashii Nations stated that the DBZ Figuarts are pretty made for the US market then I guess Broli and SSj4 Goku won't be that far off.

[Metalwario64]

I guess it's the D-Arts Mewtwo Shadow Ball, but remolded.

The original Goku was sculpted way before the D-Arts Mewtwo, and the Kamehameha is round with straight beams, whereas Mewtwo's energy ball is flatter and has electricity waves around it.

[Hellspawn28]

Oh thanks for the info, my bad. I'm still waiting for Nappa, #17 and #18 to get release. With 2014 being the 30th anniversary, they should give us more stuff. Maybe a Coola S.H FIguart for once would be good too.

[Brad Redfield]

Man, each time I see new pics of Figuarts Goku I want him more and more. Why can't it be March already?!

[Chuquita]

These are only semi-related, but they're too fantastic for me not to want to share. A plushie and ornaments(?) of the Dr. Slump poop.

[Hellspawn28]

I'm still hoping we will get early DB characters for S.H Figuarts. I can see Kid Goku and Roshi working for figures. Nappa, #17 and #18 need to get release first though.

MSP Base Gokou

I really like this figure. The face is more reminiscent of Early Z era than later on.

[Chuquita]

More BOG (and movies 5 and 6, oddly enough) figures: http://ameblo.jp/yoyocom69/entry-11733655301.html#cbox
I still want to purchase one of these high quality ssjg Goku figures so bad! T_T I really hope listings eventually pop up in the usual places.

[Li'l Lemmy]

They're re-releasing the HG EX gashapon? That would be sweet, because Coola's henchmen are probably the rarest of all DragonBall gashapon.
