In this thread, we will be discussing anything and everything to do with the S.H. Figuarts Nappa. It's OK to go off topic, but let's try and mostly stay on the topic of Nappa. Thanks!

He's gorgeous! It just kills me a little bit that he isn't wearing mustard yellow and blue armor!

looks amazing, Nappa isn't my favourite character but I can easily say this figure is probobaly going to be one of the best S.H. Figurarts. This just makes me want him more.

I have seen it posted that Vegeta will release in July 2017 and Nappa in August 2017, but I don't know for sure if that is accurate.

Who would have thought we would have an official Nappa page at this time? Still can't get over this!

When you look at the first prototype all those years ago you realise just how bad it was and we were going crazy for a release haha. This figure is looking like it's going to be my favourite now.

Quite looking forward to this release, outside of just being a great figure it'll be nice to have a big guy (who's not stupid big like Broly) in a display. The DBZ line overall is pretty good for presenting a mix of body types, unlike my Kamen riders SHFs where everyone is fairly the same size.

The anime colors version is going to be an SDCC Exclusive at some point. It absolutely sucks that it'll be very limited but Tamashii Nations/Bluefin will see it as a potential "Western Exclusive."

Ugh.......so I'm not super keen enough of a fan to really mind or even notice manga vs anime differences immediately and I could have happily lived my life with a black armour Nappa but now that I know and that I've been made aware of just how different he could look.....I want anime colours ;__;
I looked at a few images shortly after preordering Nappa and maybe thought the anime colouration was just to suggest black armour, often drawn as very dark blue in some cases but no, it's clearly blue.
And of course we'll see an exclusive repaint, of course we will!

I just don't like the idea of them one day making a Raditz and the Raditz being almost the exact same (or the exact same) color scheme as Nappa.  
Right now Nappa matches Manga Raditz.
They just have to not match... they shouldn't match...

I like both well enough, but I do prefer the blue and yellow.

If Tamashii Nations is following a sourced design similar to Banpresto's SCultures, Raditz should be alright...  Just remembered Raditz Figuarts Zero. It's all good...

This is one instance where I don't mind the manga colors for a few reasons. It doesn't look terrible, I actually like the thought of having a Nappa and Raditz with similar armor colors like in the image above, there's always a chance for an anime accurate Premium Color edition (as much as I hate when Tamashii double dips), and the main reason I like this...the manga colors just so happen to match the "original animation colors", so this can be placed next to the SDCC 2014 Vegeta. If that isn't enough, repainting the armor should be quite simple, it would be easy to just make your own anime accurate version.
