Personally, I just use a dry paintbrush to get the dust off my figures. Works pretty well.

It's not stupid at all if you cherish them then protect them with their original packaging at all costs. Plus that secures the resale value!

Holy crap, the Wild Style figures at Angolz are ALREADY sold out! Glad I got my order in. I wonder if it went so fast because everybody here decided to wait to get it at Angolz like Raithos suggested a while back. :lol:

Lol I think so. Even when I went to order them yesterday at about 10:30 am, they only had like what? 5 sets left... lol. Those sold out at around 1pm yesterday! Lol!

Nah Angolz only had 10 sets (well more Goku, but 10 Vegeta) where as the Vegeta, Trunks DX pair they had around 30 sets so once the "day one" buyers got them, there was none left :)
I owe Rathios for that, since if he wasn't for the emphasis on if you don't get straight away, you'll regret, I was going to wait a few days, then order them Saturday so my card looks a bit nicer, but after seeing they had 6 sets in the morning, within a couple of hours I just thought, well I better go get them :)
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 :)

If you take one piece (mind the pun lol) of advice form me, it is this: DO NOT WAIT TO GET FIGURES, I can't emphasize that enough! Lol!

I rarely wait, personally. :P I've had those Wild Style figures ordered for like 4 months... they should be arriving any day now. :D

There you go, that's what I like to hear and see. Pre-ordering is always a solid way to go.

I have the feeling those Wild Style figures will look better on display than in the pictures. From a distance, anyway.

Hopefully I will find out on Monday.

I hope this was after us telling you we'll take the not-so-great figures off your hands. :|

Does anybody have any information on this? It seems like it could be good.

Hmm very interesting, I see little information on it at all at the moment. The only linkages I'm seeing are in reference to the Online DragonBall Heroes game, I'm not sure what that is to be honest! I think news will pop up soon I'd like to see pictures soon if this is slated for a June release which is actually quite soon.

Heroes is a card based arcade game, it isn't online ('cause if it was, I'd be wasting my time playing it lol).

I do kinda hope that the figure line is linked with the game somehow though, I'd love some figures of the new avatar characters and SS3 Trunks.

Yeah, that would be cool, if only for the fact that they are something new.
