Kale didn't need to be a BAF. She's about the same size as Jiren. That's great for you, but the problem with a BAF is that it only benefits those who were gonna buy all the figures anyway. It's a detriment on everyone else, and lot of people buying Dragon Stars are cherry picking to suppliment their figuarts and don't want it. Just sell me the figures straight up and I'll buy them. It is what it is it's been a marketing tactic for figures across many lines for decades. I agree that the baf figure itself could be made into a 19.99 figure and would love that. But I also agree that the build-a-figure does give incentive and it does profit the company that makes our beloved DBZ figures. It's only been recently that Dragon Ball Z figures even made their way to North American retail stores i.e. Walgreens, target, and r.i.p toysrus lol so we will see how sales are after these 2 waves. Personally for me if he/she looks nice I get them but will be passing on half of these 2 new waves and I never bought these for the baf peices. Lol honestly am surprised to see it past the first two after seeing what Vegeta and Goku looked like. Wouldn't be surprised if the shenron baf helped sales because if it completely bombed I wouldn't expect anything after it. Cost money to produce, marketing and shipment. Piccolo is worry some but I think Goku Ssj4, will carry it's weight.

Also, do not forget that even though people are chasing and paying money for BAF, it is directly supporting Bandai to create and continue the line. If sales are poor they will not continue.

mehh dont mind the BAF as long as theyre big characters that figuarts dont make ex: kale. Kale didn't need to be a BAF. She's about the same size as Jiren. I don't mind BAF also. I actually enjoy this line and have managed to get them all so far. Waiting on the new waves. That's great for you, but the problem with a BAF is that it only benefits those who were gonna buy all the figures anyway. It's a detriment on everyone else, and lot of people buying Dragon Stars are cherry picking to suppliment their figuarts and don't want it. Just sell me the figures straight up and I'll buy them. Not sure what the issue is if some ppl are just buying to supplement their figuarts. They can still do so just ignore the extra body parts or sell them on eBay like what people are doing. For people like me it's just extra joy. Want just the BAF? eBay sells individual parts or as a whole. Let's look at the wave with piccolo in it. No BAF yet still they couldn't give him his cape and turban at 19.99. So who's really winning and losing here. If you really think about it, the BAF idea made Bandai profit. More money they make, the more figures you will see. Now that people will skip out on figures like piccolo we'll see how they'll do with this wave and onwards.

Am I the only one that wishes Raditz came out along these two? Nope! I'm really anticipating his release now. What are the chances? Is there even a prototype?

Vegeta 2.0 is still under pre-order at BBTS priced at $55, do you guys think this price will remain the same down the road or will it go up as production ceases or down with the inevitable SSGSS Vegeta 2.0 ?
