Where did you order that from? It doesn't look like they packaged it too well...

I've been looking for a reasonably priced Roshi, but all I could find is the black and white version. The actual colored version is sold out on major sites. :cry:

I wanted the black and white version more anyway but hopefully in the near future I'll find the colored version at a decent price.

Toys Logic has the colored version if anyone is desperate enough, since it's $25.99 without shipping. I still have time to decide if I'm desperate enough or not since they wont release it until April 30th. That site has the black and white version too but it's $19.99, whereas Hobbylinkjapan has the black and white version for $17.13. But I'm sure it'll save on shipping if you decide to buy both from Toys Logic.

I know! I feel like an idiot for letting it slip my mind. I was trying to withhold from buying figures during that time to save money.

That's $45.98 for both and with shipping it will be a little bit over $50 (depending on which shipping method I'll go for). Now for the real question: how desperate am I? Answer: Really desperate...

*Sighs and cracks knuckles* Better get my ass up and start drawing comics for money again.

Lol, sorry Scarz :P

w00t!!!

I actually got Los 6 yesterday, (so technically we're tied Chibi) Anyways completed the Legend of Saiyan Gashapon section and now only await LoS DX Volume 4, and then my Legend of Saiyan collection is complete! I find the set to be strong, including rares such as Paragus and Bio-Broly. I'm sure Broly centric fans will go ape nuts for this set and by all means they should it's great. The 3 various forms of Broly feature great sculpts and paint, the only one that lacks is the base form Broly. I don't know he just doesn't look that amazing to me, other than that great stuff all around. I highly suggest checking out Volumes 2 and 3 as they would seem to be the rarest of this entire series for boasting the Prince Vegeta, King Vegeta and Bardock and his ensemble. Other rare ones to watch out for are Preteen Future Trunks, Future SSJ Gohan, Ohzaru Bardock, those two Saiyans in volume 5 (from the pendulum training room- I forget their names :oops:), and Bio Broly/Paragus from Volume 6 oh and Tullece from Volume 5 also.

I can't find a way to comfortably fit the entire picture into one frame yet, and with my limited iPhone camera- you'll have to bear with me for a bit :/.

I Also picked up a few One Piece World Collectible Figures, I especially wanted the Nightmare Luffy, and that's going to tie into a few purchases I've made in the One Piece department so I'm excited :D. LOVE the Nightmare Luffy! Such a nice figure! I would collect these if they were'nt disgustingly expensive. I already dropped more than I needed to to get these 3 plus an extra Nightmare Luffy, so yeah. Still I'm very pleased with these and may pick up a few more very soon!

Yesssss

Raithos, I love the way you lined up the larger LoS figures! Father/son, father/son, father/son. I'm going to try and do that too once I get the last LoS release with Vegeta and King Vegeta. I'll probably be missing the Goku and Gohan figures though, because honsetly I don't like the way the Goku figure looks. More specifically his hair. It doesn't look proportional to his size.

Oh yes, I wanted to stay faithful to Banpresto's father son motif they had going. Also I don't like the SSJ Goku either, his head and hair are way too small for his body, other than that it's an ok figure. I picked it up mostly for the sake of completion.

I'm glad it's not just me then :lol:. I'll probably end up buying Goku down the road for completions sake too. Hopefully when I start looking for him he'll be the cheaper of the large LoS figures, because I don't want to break the bank for it. Gohan on the other hand looks like a great figure.

The Gohan is spectacular, and I know a place where you can get the Goku for cheap :P
