littlegreen Yeah, he calls him a retard. I think he calls him it twice, and then Super Boo yells like...he's tapped in the head, "You called me a retard?" twice. I think it's pretty funny that he needs Piccolo's brain to be smart! What does that say for the gods he absorbed? angelo2113 Well my favorite look for Trunks is his Bojack/Broly tank top look, but I would really want his Saiyan armor to complete the Cell Games. It's also the outfit during the Semi-Perfect Cell fight, where he had an even more interesting dynamic with his father! Plus the epilogue episode where he kills Imperfect Cell in the Future! I really want them both! It really depends on the day, so right now I'll go with his Tank Top look, so I can display him taking out the Androids, and he'd make a good solo display! They're both awesome, so either way! No, I'm really disappointed in Cell, but I bought it because it's better than nothing. I would buy a re-make of Perfect Cell in a heartbeat! He's WAY too skinny and bug eyed! I wish he was taller, but those two things are what really bug me. I'd actually be fine villain-wise if I just got multiple Cells, since he's a time traveler, multiple characters at one point work! Plus every form lends itself to every display, since he can match power levels and can go back in time. It's an unpopular opinion, but that's what makes me, me! I think Ginyu is a good choice to test the waters for the Ginyu Force and opening up to the Freeza saga. If he sells really well, then BAM, otherwise, at least we get him! I think Bardock would probably be the best lead in for a lot of people. Then if he sells well, then first form Freeza, and then Ginyu. I really like the older, future, Trunks. He's very rarely seen like that but such a bada**. Yeah, he definitely needs one in his Saiyan armor. Have you thought about getting the Datong Vegeta and Jacksdo bootleg versions? I've seen some pictures of him put together and he looks pretty cool. I know, any version of him would be awesome. I paid an arm and a leg for the S.H. Figuarts Trunks but I absolutely love it. So many options and accessories. That's understandable. I wish I bought two of him but I only have one of him and I plan on displaying him getting destroyed by Super Saiyan Gohan 2. It's my favorite part in the anime. The other stages/forms of him would be awesome to have. Especially with the tail being articulated similar to Frieza. That's not unpopular, that would be awesome. It's different and I think that's what this line will need in the future. Especially for collectors and their displays. Captain Ginyu is the most want from me in terms of the Ginyu Force. Exactly! If he sells well and Tamashii wants to explore the others that would be great but just as long as we have Captain Ginyu, I'll be satisfied! Bardock is also a most want fro me. Having him, Goku, and Raditz together would be an awesome display!

I feel the same way. I had the chance to buy a Vegeta and didn't get to the shop in time, someone else scooped him up. Sucked!
I think so too. If they just released Android 18 with no 16 or 17 announced then sales would have been slow. I personally wouldn't be able to just own one Android.. the set is what makes it. Vegeta seems to very well be the highest demanded character at this moment. I feel Tamashii is shooting themselves in the foot by not re-releasing Super Saiyan Vegeta but DaTong seems pretty freaking happy to take all of those sales. Yeah, definitely. The Androids are going to be the most completed group in this line.

Don't wait too long. I had to pull the trigger and get him right away because Amazon seems to go either up or down on having him. That's why I just jumped on an Android 18 figure. I'll probably be picking up Krillin some time this next week. I wanna get him with Amazon Prime if possible. I think with the announcement of Android 16, people started buying her like crazy.

I actually just got Krillin a month ago, cost me $37 free shipping from amazon. It's strange though. Some days they have him for order, others they're selling him through another party. This line is just ridiculous when it comes to prices. I don't mind the prices I've had to pay but I wish I was with this line from the beginning. I would have had multiples of a lot of characters...but probably no display room anymore, ha.

I was referring to the Krillin release, being a less popular character..... But yes, of course it does help both ways to make consumers more eager to have both release due to the inclusion. My point was that they will not include an extra like that, unless it benefit their sales. My mistake. I'm surprised Krillin wasn't a popular release, he's the next figure I plan on purchasing. Don't wait too long. I had to pull the trigger and get him right away because Amazon seems to go either up or down on having him.

angelo2113 If I get SSJ/Majin Vegeta, Tall Long Haired Trunks, Saiyan/Namek Saga Goku, and an accurate Cell, I would never ask for anything else! Who would you want the most villain-wise though? For me it's: 1. Imperfect Cell 2. Raditz 3. Semi-Perfect Cell 4. Nappa 5. Beerus Displaying Majin Vegeta vs. Super Saiyan 2 Goku would be awesome. I can't wait to get Majin Vegeta the most, to be honest. I always thought that was his best moment in the series. Now which Tall Long Haired Trunks do you want the most? I would go for the Ascended Super Saiyan Trunks first, then the Bojack Trunks, and then normal Trunks. What do you mean by accurate Cell? You don't like the one they made? That's such a difficult question. I want ALL OF THEM! Ha, I do but I'll be more realistic. Yours is a pretty good list. All stages of Cell would be amazing to have and to display them. Especially now that we have Android 17 and 18. For my most villain list, I would have to go with... 1.) Raditz 2.) Kid Buu (Just to knock off the top peak villains from the series.) 3.) Turles 4.) Bojack (I know that's out of no where but I would really like the Gohan and Trunks version from that movie so if we could get Bojack then maybe the demand for the others would increase.) 5.) Captain Ginyu

We've been doing pretty good villain-wise with Cell, Vegeta, Freeza, 16, 17, 18, Broly, and then whatever form of Boo, when KAI starts airing internationally. Yeah, we're definitely getting the peak villains from each Saga. There's still quite a lot of other villains that I hope they take the time to decide to develop and produce them.

Really? Hm, that's interesting to know. I always thought they weren't that desired.

Apparently Villains, that aren't saiyans, don't do that well overseas. What are you talking about? It seems that villains don't sell as well in the Japanese market as they do in the Western market.

I don't know, Android 18 has been selling pretty well, it seems. I don't know if I'd say it's a less popular release. I suppose it's less popular if you compare it to the most popular figures in the series. The price has risen steadily since the release. I think the reason she's sold so well is because if you own one Android then you probably will want to own them all. I agree with you that including the Krillin accessories has helped, I think that was a clever move. I was referring to the Krillin release, being a less popular character..... But yes, of course it does help both ways to make consumers more eager to have both release due to the inclusion. My point was that they will not include an extra like that, unless it benefit their sales. Apparently Villains, that aren't saiyans, don't do that well overseas. So if there was going to be an accessory, it would be for a non-saiyan villain.

The company that makes the bootleg Trunks head, I believe, is working on a Super Saiyan 2 Goku head.

I think ssj2 goku was his best transformation. It just looked so cool. Yeah I sort of agree. I mean you can't really put anything before the the first SSJ transformation, but I do thing the shorter, spikier hair is cool!
They really should just come out with another head we can buy as an accessory. Maybe they could even do the thing with Android 18 coming with a Krillin head. It would be cool if an SSJ 2 Goku head came with a Majin Vegeta. Anyone agree?
Absolutely. I believe there's been reports though that the company that owns the rights to the characters doesn't want a smiling/smirking Super Saiyan Goku. So it really would have killed two birds with one stone by giving us a Super Saiyan 2 head sculpt and a smiling Goku face with Majin Vegeta.

Does anybody know how to fix super saiyan goku bicep swivel? Everytime y touch the arm it falls off I know how to fix this problem without using glue, this always happen to me when I take apart my figures for customization and also sometimes when I open the figure the biceps falls off. Steps: 1.) remove the sleeve that connect to the shoulder. 2.) remove the shoulder from the torso, just simply full it and it will pop right off. If your having trouble dip it into hot water. 3.) things to know; dipping the figure into hot water will soften the material. The peg that connects to bicep and ballpeg that connects to the torso is all one piece. The shoulder it self is the reason why the the bicep keeps falling off, it's restricting the peg to go all the way inside the peg hole. 4.)dip the arm/biceps and the shoulder into hot water. 5.)use one hand/fingers to hold the biceps for support, then the other hands/fingers will push the peg in to the hole. Push it by the ball peg, if first try didn't work, dip the arms/bicep and shoulder again into hot water a lil longer and repeat the step 5th step. You can also use your palm which I do sometimes, use your palm to ouch the peg in. It is also better to use your t-shirt to push it will add lil padding from hurting your fingers or palm and it also gives that grip. 6.) when the shoulder is finally connected to the bicep THEN connect the arms/shoulder to the torso. I hope this made sense, if not let me know and I will try to take a picture when I get a chance once I get home. I tried this out. The shoulder ball peg would absolutely not come out of the torso, at all. The shoulder itself actually pulled off before the piece that connected it to the torso. I tried using pliers but didn't want to take a chance so I pushed down the shoulder and the peg seemed to have been exposed more. Then I pushed the bicep socket onto the peg and it seems to have work for now. I'm going to let it cool off and then twist and turn the bicep to see if it completely worked in the morning. Thanks, Mr. Simple!
