Oh yeah, for sure. It's a cheap way to show how intense a fight is, and hey - free fan service for the ladies. :lol:
Goku fanservice is definitely a thing. :3 I would not be surprised if Toei takes advantage of this for BOG.

Seriously. They should've already had a detailed plot summary up, exact run time and international theater dates by now. I mean, it's so damn close you stingy futtbuckers.
If you're not here soon... GET ON!

Definitely feels like they're beginning to cut it too close. Come on Toei! You need to continuously pop out new bits of info or else how are most people supposed to stay interested?

That is one cool seal. :3

Toei's OPZ had an entire scene that took place on the men's side of a hot springs. Wet, towel-covered man-nudity everywhere. XD They definitely consider these things.

Vegeta fanservice happens in the manga/anime, but it's surprisingly harder to come by (especially considering what he normally wears).

Oh lord. What have I started. DBZ manservice everywhere! :lol:

I kid, I kid. :P On topic, I do think they're cutting it pretty close now, we should start hearing some more stuff already...but at the same time, it's up to them in the end, I guess. It's their product, and we just have to trust, hope, and assume they know what they're doing here.

Even the KFC tie-in toys reveal nothing about the film.

It's kind of hilariously sad.

Please, Toei! Tell us something. ^^;;

What are those toys exactly anyway? The first one looks like a go board maybe? I have no guess on the circular things, at all. No good ones anyway - frisbees? Coasters? The last one looks like some kinda sticker poster...thing.

Guess restaurant toys in Japan suck nowadays too. :?

Oh man, I hope we get a larger copy of the art on the first box though. That new-hairdo Kuririn is just begging to be my avatar somewhere.

For those of you endlessly refreshing the thread waiting for even the smallest tidbit...

I don't think I've seen this posted yet, but the caption for Pilaf & co. says, "What’s this?! That Pilaf gang has been turned into children…?!"

Julian's back to teaching a class, but should be out in 15-20 minutes and back to this work. Most of the update is done... just gotta finish up some of the preview screening information...

What, us? Needlessly refresh? I'd never do that, ha...haha...is it that obvious?

So there WAS something to them looking a little weird there!

This movie is going to be full of fun.

I really hope Pilaf & Co stay as children even after the movie is over. I doubt this would happen but for some reason I think it would be so cool if they stayed that way. Buuuuuuut it wouldn't connect well to GT since they're much older by then.

...That actually makes them turning into kids highly ironic, now that I think about it. It was their fault that Goku got turned into a kid in GT. Now it's their turn I guess, heh.

Now I want to see the whole gang turned into kids. Even just for a moment. Their interactions with each other would be quite interesting to see.

If that happens...then...Little Saiyalings will have at long last been animated. Kinda. And I love the very idea of this.

Pilaf Gang mystery solved! :mrgreen:

I can't wait to hear the child-version of their voices. XD Especially Pilaf's.

But wait, why are they also in addition to being turned into kids, toy-sized compared to everyone else on the poster? Or is that just a hidden spoiler? :?:
