Yeah.. agreed. in fact was researching to see what I could do with some of the figures Im about to recieve. And just decided to make a Tien from that Brolly.. a few adjustments.. and I dont care much for Brolly anyway.. it will end up quite great in scale with that Nappa I did ( and all the others.. since he is a bit bulkier than Goku and not close to Nappa). Also I was thinking on using his uper body for a shirtless full power SSJ goku, and/or 100% frieza (even his gountlets would fit fine, just a repaint).. If I manege to get more brollys eventually I might do that. And my other golden Frieza will become a Cooler. The head re-sculpt might be a bit of a chalenge.. that I wont shy away from. Also in IDK what to do with another SSJ blue vegeta.. if I just make him SSJ yellow.. or if I go for a King Vegeta.. (I already have a close enough cape) I can't wait to see those customs, a Broly would be cool and a King Vegeta would be awesome, battle damaged SSJ Goku always looks cool and Frieza looks insane at 100% power Just hope I can get more of the same figures.. first wave is already looking scarce and pricier. For now Im about to recieve one of each ( not counting the 2 I already have)

I seriously want to see Nappa, Krillin, Frieza, Tien or Yamcha make an appearance in this line. Something I hate is that almost every figure line starts with the most popular characters in the series, which means mostly Buu Saga characters, why can't they start with the saiyan saga get most of the major characters and continue like that throughout all the major sagas and fill in some of the missing spaces with characters they forgot later. Also what's the deal with saiyan characters getting their transformations made before their base form figures, I personally think Goku looks way cooler in his base form than any of his super Saiyan forms. Yeah.. agreed. in fact was researching to see what I could do with some of the figures Im about to recieve. And just decided to make a Tien from that Brolly.. a few adjustments.. and I dont care much for Brolly anyway.. it will end up quite great in scale with that Nappa I did ( and all the others.. since he is a bit bulkier than Goku and not close to Nappa).

You will sure ruins some figures on the way... but don´t be afraid to try.

I hear you. This line, being a small line would be perfect for making less popular characters.. like the Ginyu forces. I really hope so.. but being realistic I believe they might go back and foward with DB Super and DBZ. Now that future trunks is coming back.. I bet he will surelly be in the next batch.. and perhaps Cell. The sad thing though is that if they ever do the Ginyus.. they will never do All! I believe Recoome Ginyu and Jess would be the pick.. but I personally would hope for a Botter. Also we don´t know how well those big guys will be make.. I mean Brolly turned out like .. really small.

Gashaphons and marvel universe. especifically Nappa has super hero showdown hulk's shoulder, arms and legs from Hercules(MU). Frieza 3rd form is (SHSD)ironman legs, Venom arms. Epox and superglue holds all together real good... luckly enough those gashaphons had enough space in theirs joint parts for me to plug and keep articulation from the action figure pieces. and all painted with some not so good paint.. but is what we have here in brazil.

Hey guys, just to let you know I did a post on the custom section with my Shodo Neo customs. check'em out. dragonballfigures.com/thread/3118/coronel-shodo-neo-customsAlso a piece of info I don´t know if it is largelly known but I believe that this line has some assembling issues. specifically regarding arms placing. I believe that most arms (at least of the figures I got so far) have been swaped! I mean the arm that comes as a right arm is actually the left arm and vice versa. I say that because the inside of the arm has better sculpted triceps muscle.. while the outter side of the arm has less detail. actually you can just swap them since thats the only diference in the arms.. foward arms are simetric. So doind that you get a better looking figure.. more muscled. I guess its a easy mistake.. this should be harder to hapen with Brolly (wich I don´t yet have. So I don´t know thats true for him too.) I guess we will se if it is a design problem or a assembling problem with Buu..because his arm holes.

I have absolutelly falled in love with this line. And lucky enough there are quite some sheap and easy options to customize gashophons within this scale. So here are some. Vegeta repaint Nappa custom (Fully articulated gashaphon + figure parts) http://instagram.com/p/BGcCkrPy_zP Final Form Frieza repaint Third Form Frieza (Fully articulated gashaphon + figure parts) http://instagram.com/p/BGcCsI5y_ze A piece of info I don´t know if it is largelly known but I believe that this line has some assembling issues. specifically regarding arms placing. I believe that most arms (at least of the figures I got so far) have been swaped! I mean the arm that comes as a right arm is actually the left arm and vice versa.

Yes! Glad to know this line is continuing strong. Im not quite into any of those new ones.. But its ok enough.. Buu is Nice. Gotenks is só tiny! I didnt think they would do smaller/child figures because of the already small scale. Looking foward to it. Vegeto is a waste.. Just a reuse of goku's body... And im not into fusions that much. I just painted my frieza white and my vegeta's hair black. Looking good! And customized a 3rd form Frieza From a gashophon.. Its in scale with this colection and now fully articulated!

this figures are absolutely awesome! So much quality into such a small and cheap product! I sure hope to see more of those. Just picked up Vegeta and Frieza.. hope I can get the others.. and that they release some more!
Anyone knows anything about their future plans?
Im not a big fan of Super but considering the line might get going with it.. I fell like (and hope so) the next batch of 3 figures could very well be: Hit, Frost and Piccolo. (the most doable characters in super right now. body molds don´t need to change drastically to achieve those figures. as for Beerus Whiss or Cabba would need a body mold drastically diferent.)
Im just so happy with this line hope it keep going.
