Wow everything's pretty up there in price, I'm mainly collecting dragon ball z sh figuarts and tamashii buddies but I just thought those figures I asked about were really cool.

Thanks for answering for me VR! The Shenron can be had for less than $100 if you are patient on eBay or buy using buyee.com. I think I paid about $40 for guru a few years ago. I bought the pod when brand new, so I got it for about $20. And Adrenaline got me Porunga for about $20 I think. It isn't a great sculpt, but it's better than $200 for one of the Japanese ones. I hated the base the Shenron came on. It smelled horrible, like swimming pool floats. If you check the Bootleg Check This Out topic, I posted a link to the bootleg floating Shenron figure recently. I like it better, but if you are sensitive to chemicals like I seem to be, the odor will bother you. The link I posted a few days ago was a VERY good deal for it.

I'm surprised this post hasn't got a sea of comments? I have checked out your collection pic's and customs numerous times(the way you click your custom pics along with the comparison of other similar figures is neat, very clear and super helpful with the added insight of what you feel while making the custom explained is a nice touch), I have even downloaded the video of utube to catch a more detailed glimpse of your collection(I must thank you for that hot water trick). You've got a very very nice systematic display of your DB/Z/GT collection Branjita. I agree that the 2015 display style looks better then the 2014 one. Got to admit I am in awe of your custom Burter, he is purely perfect in every sense! Even the Goz and Mez look amazing! Nappa and also the Shenron looks great, goes well with the Porunga, just not sure why you never got the Jakks GT yellow and red dragon. After reading what you had to say, it has answered my doubts about your updated collection video, I just felt that many figures were missing in your video, I don't follow much of all that goes on in this site but I sure know that you and another person in here, have most of the DB/Z/GT along with custom characters then any one else in here, there or anywhere, so somehow that video did not showcase all of them is what I felt, I guess not enough place to display the remaining 200 or more figures kept under wraps? I hope that someday you would be able to display each and every DB/Z/GT figures that you own. Thank you for sharing your customs and collection pics with us but don't stop here... keep them updates coming! All the best.

Thanks for the compliments Alden!! I used to own the red Jakks Shenron, but I hated the way he looked. So I settled for the enlarged bootleg version of some 3.5 inch one that you can see on my shelf. He's only about 8 inches tall, but at least he fits on my little staircases. I haven't figured out what to do with my other figures. Most of the ones not displayed are either custom figures that are works in progress or they are figures I purchased to use for custom figures, and there's about 200 or 300 of them. What I need to do is sell my HG collection eventually, so I can have some space for other stuff. I don't get a lot of enjoyment out of them because I can't display them anywhere but my closet, and they keep falling into my clothes. So far I haven't lost any pieces, but I will eventually. Bulma fell into my pocket on a pair of shorts LOL. My new job sure has taken a lot of time away from me. I went from being able to customize nearly every day, to basically never, and I haven't had time to get on here either. I'm not allowed to do personal things at work, so I can't look at DBF on my computer at work, and it's too hard to keep up with via only my phone.

On my little staircases... cute lol Pretty sure Vegeta won't be happy about what Bulma has done there. You lucky guy. I can relate to that work life, new responsibilities can change everything, still I hope to see more of your customs just like the way you keep doing them, don't stop. =) I've always wondered and have posted this somewhere else too but Branjita... is this your real complete name? No offense. =|

Thank you. I'll post my 2016 collection in a few months. I obtained an additional armoire for figures, but I used stain on the inside and don't want to put figures in it until the stain smell fades away (which isn't going quickly since I can't take it outside and thus have the doors shut on it so I can breathe!).
