Really looking forward for a chance to get affordable Trunks!
I hope it's not the Manga colors because I don't quite like them much, lol.

I wouldn't be surprised if these are metallic repaints. It fits the "Advanced Color" bill, and Bandai previously did this with some Power Ranger figuarts that they likely wouldn't have been able to re-release otherwise.

Agreed. If their not re releases I'm good, but the thing that gets me is how are they going to repaint Trunks??? I don't know what colors that they can make him if they stay with the same mold. I guess the point is that even if they are re releases, oh well. We didn't know when we bought them lol. As for repaints, they could easily go manga trunks beevee Yes the hair is darker but the jacket is lighter.

If they just make the hair metallic like the older Japanese figures sometimes had, I might leave the hair as is. If they're manga colored I'll try and commission a friend to paint the hair for me, he paints Warhammer models and he's really good at color matching and fine detail. Only thing is he's super busy doing his own things and work, and I'd hate to bother him with it.
Either way it goes, I'm picking up two of each.

Excellent news. I prefer manga colors. Trunks and Vegeta are the only two I need for a complete collection.

I like Manga Trunks because his jacket looks more like a jean jacket, but the other characters look better with their anime colors to me. Kinda regret not getting SDCC Piccolo when he was only $90.
I've never read the color versions of the Manga and can't remember what Vegeta's color scheme was on the covers/spines of the normal volumes. Is there a huge difference between the anime and manga or is it like Goku and Cell where his colors were just dull and less saturated?

Here's a Vegeta figure that had it. Hard to see in the package, but I remember the old Beckett DBZ magazines had a section in the back that showed off Japanese figures along side the Irwin as a sort of collectors checklist or maybe even a catalog to order them. I was never able to get them as kid, but I liked the gold hair versions and there was a gotenks one I wanted so bad.
