Mine just arrived today. Great looking figure. Love the ability to headswap with previous Goku’s as well. It’s not a perfect fit, but it’s far less loose than I expected! There is one issue I have though. The joints on his knees and right arm (elbow and especially shoulder) are very tight... Anyone else have this problem too? Oh this is just fantastic. I tried loosening the joint with some dish soap and guess what? The SOB snapped right off. Goddamnit.

There are loads of figures I want, but most notably I’d love some DBS characters in the form of Hit, Zamasu or any character from the Tournament of Power, but I also missed the releases of some other important characters like Krillin and the Androids, so a 2.0 version of those would be sweet as hell.
1. Krillin 2.0 (in his Saiyan Saga outfit. It would also fit perfectly for DBS) 2. Hit 3. Zamasu 4. Androids 17 and 18 2.0 5. Buu (Doesn’t really matter which one)
Honorable mentions: Raditz, Goten & Kid Trunks, Frost, Future Trunks (DBS) and Cabba.

Oh god, the new Frieza looks fabulous! Does anyone know when he’ll be up for pre-order?

Wondering when we’ll get some official pics/reveal of the new Frieza next year....it has got to be soon no? I expect them to release him during Summer 2018, relating to his reappearance for the Tournament of Power for the English dub. So I assume we’ll get new info somewhere around february.

Another idea for the SDCC exclusive...SSB Goku with an orange gi (anime accurate) and glossy hair like Vegeta's. A PC SSB Goku Or what about a SSB Kaioken Goku? It would technically just be a repaint.

Hmm... Well, SDCC exclusives have pretty much always been recolors of existing figures, right? I think Adult Super Saiyan Gohan would be out of the question, going by that. I'd give a repaint of Vegito (with brownish base hair and SSB) a bigger chance. But PCE Krillin does seem like the ideal candidate for an SDCC exclusive, though. While Vegito is a pretty interesting (and viable) option, I hope it's not the case. I would rather have a 2.0 of Vegito in SSB so it could be paired with Merged Zamasu and also cuz I'm sick and tired of the old Goku mold. My top likely picks for the exclusive are: World Tour Goku PC Krillin PC Ultimate Gohan PC SWA Goku Saiyan Saga Goku Well, aren't 3 of those exactly the mold you're tired of?

Is there actually any news on a possible PCE Krillin? I'm thinking about purchasing the original one, but if a PCE would be in the making, I'd hold off on that for a bit longer. I don't think there's anything official on it but he is one of the few figures left that is not 'anime-accurate' so he seems likely to get a PCE eventually. Alternatively they could just ignore him until they get around to releasing a 2.0 version but having a PCE would make them some easy money in the short-term so I wouldn't be shocked to see it. Edit: Also they are (basically) guaranteed to release *something* for SDCC every year and while most here seem to think it'll just be Kaio-Ken Goku, I honestly doubt it will be as he has a special World Tour box and everything (SDCC is not listed as part of the world tour). So I still think we'll get something else for SDCC, like Krillin, adult Super Saiyan Gohan or (less likely) one of the many DBS characters/transformations that could be released as simple repaints.

Speaking of SDCC. Any thoughts what it could be this year? I get the feeling it will just be Kaio-Ken Goku like the did with the Mexico Goku. Not many more recolours I can think of besides PC Krillin with the skin coloured eyes. Thinking outside the box what if it was Armoured Trunks but with the Ascended Super Saiyan head that was shown off. They would not dare put that Trunks head on an SDCC exclusive. Something tells me that doing so would upset a lot of people. Same goes for making PCE Krillin the exclusive. He'd be (relatively) perfect to come out around the same time Tien and/or Yamcha do. It's either gonna be Kaio-ken Goku or maybe something out of left field that no one is really expecting. At least, I hope. Is there actually any news on a possible PCE Krillin?

Perhaps a shirtless or torn-up version as a way to mix it up?

1. Goku Black 2. Zamasu 3. Raditz 4. Goten 5. Kid Trunks
I wouldn't mind guys like Zarbon, Dodoria or Ginyu either, but these are the ones I'd like to see first. Black and Zamasu would finally give us an expansion to the DBS set (with only Golden Frieza and SSB Goku & Vegeta being available right now), Raditz would pretty much complete the Saiyan Saga (aside from maybe Chiaotzu, Kid Gohan and Krillin with his old gi) and with Gotenks being in the making, Trunks and Goten should be the next logical step.

Hmm... I'm kinda disappointed with the scouter being stuck on the face... It looks like a solid figure, but the only reason I'd get it, would be to use the head for making my own Cac from Xenoverse. The scouter wasn't really part of that plan though... Oh well, maybe if I got too much money on my hands, I'll buy it nonetheless, but right now, I'm gonna pass on this one, sadly.

I think the figure looks fantastic and don't mind the "wet pants". Yeah, the new mold really gives it that extra "umpf". Same goes for the other figures actually. Never thought I'd be excited for Yamcha or Tien figures, but goddamnit I am. Majin Vegeta takes the cake, though. What an absolute beauty.
