Very cool that the humans and saiyajin look as though they get multiple body-types!

I hope there's a color wheel (or at least a large number of colors) for haircolor choices.

Also hoping (tentatively optimistic) that even a bit of new DB15 info is in that VJump. :3

Reposting this on this page because I know the forum tends to act goofy with new posts at the end of a page, usually skipping to the newest page for no real reason.

Anyway, DongHyun sent me these. I know the Human South Kaioshin looking character is wearing one of the dogi from DBO, but so is the female:

Also, I'm sure we'll get Majin customization and probably Namekian too (this is the only one I'd be kinda worried about with some of them looking sooooo odd). Anyway he also sent me an image of the Namekian and Male Majn "hair" customization options from the DBO guides. So these are probably what we'll see for them, and maybe more.

The guy next to Trunks is wearing the dojo champion dogi from DBO. I never expected these elements of the game to resurface. I'm certain we will see Towa eventually and I can't wait.

I think it is worth noting that a few of these didn't even appear in DBO(you couldn't even have a standard Namekian head). There was also an Alien X-Peke hair style for Namekians.

Human South Kaioshin? To me he looks more like buff version of Oob. :P

I was talking about how it was kinda interesting to see concept art that didn't make it into the game, as well as noting that some were apparently dropped for other designs that we did see, with my fiance right after DongHyun sent me the pictures. I didn't get specific about the dogi because most people probably never player the game and wouldn't have known what I was talking about anyway. I do hope we get to see Towa and Miira though.

I was gonna say buff Uub, but he has that longer face design that's used on characters like Nappa, Reacoom, South Kaioshin, etc. Southy looks the most like Uub (with differet colors) other than the alternate face shape, so I ran with it. xD

This looks great and the variety in the human designs look great. We can make Uub like humans and that female on the right looks very Kai like to me. Best DBZ game in over 6 years!!!

Haha. Yeah, I totally get it. Could be either way. :)

So does anyone think this game is going to be back to video game revelance since Budokai 3? Will it be able to top the original Budokai?

A Namek with Perfect Cell's Head? :D :clap: lmao I'm sold. The thing everyone had a problem with UT I know was that every character possible to make ended up looking all the same as all the others you fought online because there you couldn't customize physical attributes. Now we at least get that; though the extent nameks even get really surprised me.

I just hope we can change their eyes as well. Thats the icing on it. The options to alter eyes, symbol creation, and voice pitches. Anything like Soul Calibur 5 would be perfect, which isnt too far from this as of now.

The bizzare thing is, they are. There are people who still want a RB3 - even though this IS basically the hypathetical game Treevax has been pushing just not made by Spike. I dont have my bets on a need for a RB3 doing more than this game, even fanservice wise. Not at this level.

As of now the game has the right look to it and the character creator that we've been asking for

If it gets the game play and character count right then yes i think we'll finally have a game that is better then both B3&BT3
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

Oh my.. The Dragonball Game i always wanted. I'm overwhelmed right now. Never believed in a Caliber like that anymore. Since DBO i dreamed for a Treatment like that. It's here now. Unreal. Brilliant.

One Reason to get Next Gen by then.

It's HFI_MM (yes, I'm still calling him that).

EDIT: Oh, you are talking about the Janemba dude. I have no idea who he is.
