It's all black except for it's stand and eyes. According to the dragonball museum website and a few other very reliable sources, yeah there's only 20 of the black one , 100 of the gold one , and the brown full color one was the general release. I really want to track down the gold one to complete the set.

That would be so sick. Those figures are huge arn't they? How did you come across this one? And how much did it cost you?

Yeah they're big man , a little over a foot. One of my buddies overseas managed to track it down for me , it took a good amount of time but it was eventually found in japan. As for price... I'd rather not discuss actual numbers, let's just say I somewhat question my own sanity every time I look at that thing. Worth it In the end though I guess....

Haha that's cool man. I have those moments too when I think about how much I've spent total on everything I have related to Dragonball. Then I just stop thinking about it :lol:. But hey, it's just money. As long as it makes you happy that's all that matters.

More than true man, in the end it's all worth it. Makes me smile and that's all that matters. Now if I could only figure out a way to stop my chick from shooting me death eyes every time she sees the "recently purchased" page on our eBay account lol

It means the figures have movable joints.
I have a Dragon Ball collection of sorts which can be seen here.

Ah! Cool. Thanks Chibi. I've always wondered what that meant since I've seen the word around a bunch of times.

I mean, you're pretty open about looking at cartoon porn. Why would you do that? It's fiction. The proportions of these women are not possible to reach in reality.

Fortunately the pegs are on the base again. It makes things so much easier, because I don't always have the room to display them with the base, and I hate not being able to stand them up otherwise.

It's lucky I'm sometimes messy and didn't throw the rubbish out straight away... I didn't realize there was a belt to attach to Goku and I almost threw it away. :P

Also, here's the puzzle I got.

I've started on it now... I'm aiming to get it done in five days.
