I got all of these for $60.

I used to own all the Movie/Fusion Collection figures for the first 6 series except the Cooler and Goku from the first series. It was part of my old collection I collected back as a kid. I've sold a chunk of the my older collection a few years ago and have been in the process selling the rest for the past few months. I have 8 pieces left in the older collection, including 5 Movie Collection figures. The only 2 things I plan on keeping is my loose Meta Cooler (the only movie collection figure I removed from package) and an old Irwin series 1 Freeza (final form), which has a spot on my Freeza's Force shelf.

As for the figures I got today, most will be sold off for profit $$$. The Cooler figure one is honestly my favorite out of all the Movie Collections, so that one will probably be kept for a while. The 14' figures are ugly as hell... lol.
I have a Dragon Ball collection of sorts which can be seen here.

Lol true!

You know I never knew why HQDX didn't do an SSJ4 Goku, just like they didn't do an SSJ3 Goku, or an SSJ2 teen Gohan, Cell and all his forms, the Androids etc. They like completely skipped the Android/Cell arc, lol.

@ Chibi

I know nothing of those types of figures but I'm going to assume you have rare catches there

An HQDX Perfect Cell is one of my biggest wants... Banpresto needs to get on that.

I would love those figures too, but don't you think it's especially weird that they didn't make a SSJ4 Goku when they already made a SSJ4 Vegeta and SSJ4 Gogeta? What's up with that? lol

I completely agree! I honestly thought they were going to release an SSJ4 Goku in that line at the very least. They should have released SSJ4 Goku and Omega Shenron to complete the GT special set. Don't know why the hell they didn't if they went to the extent of making SSJ4 Gogeta and SSJ4 Vegeta... I always wondered why they didn't make the Goku or Shenron with it for that matter...

An HQDX Perfect Cell is one of my biggest wants... Banpresto needs to get on that.

They attempted to make one by producing a Master's Star Piece prototype. The unpainted pictures looked good but the painted pictures were a bit lacking in my opinion:

Galleries: Unpainted I, Unpainted II
Fully Painted

As you can see the figs are on HQDX scales ATM.

@ Legendary: You know I always forget that piece, I don't know why lol. I want something more along the lines of this:

HQDX of all the androids too, not Pichi Pichi or MSP or MMM, I want HQDX versions! lol....

That Goku looks pretty nifty. It looks kind of like the Wild Style Goku. Is that a custom?
EDIT: Nevermind, I just checked out the links you posted. I forgot about those figures. I really wish they made the Goku in casual wear figure.

I'm not too fond of the muscle max Goku. It just doesn't look natural. I love figures that look just like their anime/manga counterparts.

Get it! Order it now because it may take a while to get to you like it did for me (1 month). The rightstuf item page still doesn't say it's in stock. It just says "More arriving soon!" Just like it did when I ordered it. The size of this thing still giving me chills. It's so awesome!

No, it's an official prototype made by a figure designer for a figures tournament called Zoukei Tenkaichi Budoukai under the "Master Star Piece" line by Banpresto. A contest where ten figures are designed and then voted on to see which figure will be made, Piccolo seems to be the winner as of yet, but I don't know if the contest is over yet or not. Haven't checked the site in a bit...

Check it here: http://z-tenkaichi.bpnavi.jp/

I don't like MMM becuase of the white tips in his hair, and like Drabaz I prefer him to look closer to how he did in the anime...

@ Drabaz I was also duped, I thought I was getting a HSCF SSJ Trunks but got a bootleg I did a quick custom to the face and hair. Not perfect but better than it was before :D

I just ordered the Movie 12/13 Steelbook off of eBay for $8.74 shipped. I'm not going to buy all of them because I'm waiting for Dragon Box The Movies, and the 5/6 and 7/9 Steelbooks will cost me an arm and a leg.

If you search around some online shops still have 7/9 at $20 USD delivered within the US.
Next to get; Leged of Saiyan figures and Freeza's force

If anyone sees
Any of the Legend of Saiyan line going cheapish
Or any other Banpresto DBZ figure :)

If anyone has a cooler steelbook dvd that wants to sell it (prefer new but used is fine) when/if the dragon box movies comes out contact me :)

So I bought 3 random Megahouse figures a month ago from an online shop and bought out the rest of the stock a few weeks back.

Image

Results? Out of the 15 total I bought, only 2 were the crappy gold version, so I guess I beat the ratio. Oh and I completed a set.

Image

Image

Oh and the spares I got.

2 Goku/Gohan
2 Expoding Cells
1 Buff Cell
1 Piccolo/Kami
1 Trunks (Crappy Gold)
