Bandai America's Dragon Stars Master Roshi is available for Pre-order on Amazon now, with a release date of September 15, 2021 amzn.to/2UEghB5The box art officially confirms he is part of wave 19. Why black haired "Hobby Exclusive" Gogeta isn't considered Wave 19... I don't know. He was released sometime after the very early SSB Goku from wave 19, and significantly before the relative recent black haired DBS Broly from wave 19. I don't follow this line closely enough to know whether this is unusual or not. Looks like (last year's?) SS Gogeta Walgreens exclusive had its own unique packaging as well. We really need an expert (who actually buys every figure) to maintain the checklist on DBF. Are there any volunteers? I can’t wait for that roshi

mogen I don't own tons of them, but I really felt Janemba was hindered by his leg articulation a lot. It's a real shame, because the arms are great. The figures need ankles that can rotate sideways so they can stand with their legs spread at different distances and still be flat-footed on the ground. Cell, Cooler, and Janemba are probly the 3 best they have made and all three basically have no leg movement sadly. I really want them to keep the line alive but alomst every time i buy one i half hate it. Whats worse is its all way what seems like an easy fix, just picture if they gave them hip joints more like marvel legends with a thigh swivel like the bisep swivel that would free the legs up 1000% i beleive.

Man I really wish Dragon stars would fix their crappy legs, i want to say for a $20-25 figure that they were decent but the legs are just so trash. The top half are good figures even with out having waist articulation, but the legs just end up killing all the good will, the 1.0 vegeta might have been the best but they have just taken steps backwards ever since.

This picture showed up on Instagram recently, so I Photoshopped some mock ups of what size DS Broly will likely be. Note: my Figuarts Broly is a bootleg made by Legend Creation, so it isn't as big as the legit version. I'm thinking the Dragon Stars Broly will be better for my 5 inch scale collection, since the Legend Creation one is a little too large. I think for Figuarts collectors, they are going to love having a smaller Broly body, because the base-form Broly head will definitely look better on a smaller body. Keep in mind that the Legend Creation Broly is at least 1 cm shorter than the authentic one though, so the size difference between the Dragon Stars one and Figuarts is going to be more dramatic. I kinda forgot this Broly was a thing, I grew to hate dragon stars but this could work as a real base form withe a shf head swap. now I just want to know when the new Master Roshi is coming out

Well, I guess I won't need that information anymore lol. The thing that bottered me about the figure was that (most) joints were loose. I got to tighten them and also improve the range of movement on the ankles, so I'm cool with the figure and I actually really like it now. Also, a pleasure to meet most of you I joined back in august 2019 to never post again lol, but now that I bought this figure I thought what the hell and figured I'd post about it here. I have yet to learn how to post pics here, but when I do, I could post pics of my modified Goku if you're interested welcome and all that

I think that Broly might end up awesome for putting the Figuarts base form head on. I pre-ordered one from Amazon. The other figure in wave 19 is non-SS Gogeta. He's supposedly a hobby store exclusive, but in 2021, I don't know what a hobby store technically is. Back in the early 2000s, that sometimes meant stores in the mall and always meant comic book stores. But in 2021, could that just mean every store except Walmart and Target? lol Dragon Stars can be hard to find, so I don't know. Entertainment Earth does have Gogeta for pre-order though. just what i was thinking replace the head and it would be a good stand in

Via Juan (I don't remember his member name on here... my head is too full of figure knowledge ) Here's DB Evolve series 2 with Jakks Mecha Frieza and Figuarts Frieza (a bootleg one). I am thrilled with series 2!! There might be some customizing ideas brewing! It looks as if Broly and Jiren share the same hands. I can't think of any characters Jiren's body would work for beyond Buff Master Roshi. These bodies are too buff for making into a Tien.
Broly is perfect for customizing into a shirtless Nappa that scales with the Irwin Nappa thanks to Alberth Paztrana
Nice Nappa I used that Broly to make a BUFF Freiza to scale with sh figuarts
