Finally got to pre-order Beerus, ended up going with Anime-Island, if for no other reason than it's one place to email to update my address. Hopefully buying a house! Congrats dude. Hope it goes well if you do.

I too don't wanna see a Frieza repaint. People are also talking about wanting a Scouter Vegeta one too. HELL NO. We already have perfectly good versions of these two. Same with the other figures released (except maybe Krillin since his eyes are wrong). Thing is, people don't realize that collector figures don't really get re-released. Most of the time, a figure is released once and that's it. That's just how collecting works. If you came into the line late or just don't wanna pay the premium price, tough cookies. It's the name of the game. It may sound harsh but that's the way it is. Re-releases are bonuses, figure companies don't have to do it. As someone that has all of them, I don't want re-releases. I want see new characters, new sculpts, and older characters get released. Re-releases are a waste since I already own the originals. So far, the PC versions are merited improvements so in this specific case, it's warranted. I'm a bit iffy on seeing a Scouter Vegeta repaint as we already got one at SDCC 2014, and seeing how the new Trunks has folded arms that may match and fit the PC SS Vegeta. However, I would like to see a re-release of Scouter Vegeta with legs that aren't as loose.

IF true, a lot of these are pretty expected releases like gotenks said. I figured that if they made another PC it'd be Krillin since no other character merits one. I'd only get it if they fixed the eyes since other than that the current one is anime accurate and perfect. I hope the SSJ3 has the kanji from BoG so I can keep the old one as the Buu Saga version. Everything else is pretty awesome and perhaps if Gogeta comes out a Janemba would follow? A man can dream. I don't know, maybe they'd recolor Krillin to match Goku/Gohan, in addition to the eyes.

I would haved loved a Majin vegeta with more bulk and vein + battle damaged clothing and the suicide explosive wave accessory for him. Honestly if tamashii would have pulled this out, I think we might have had the best SH figuarts of all time. They probably introduced ssj3 vegeta because of their ssj 3 goku reissue. It'd be awesome if they threw in a majin vegeta head but they more than likely won't. Maybe Bandai will release an ssj 2 and majin vegeta bd seperately in the future. I bet Datong will release a majin vegeta head/figure before Bandai. You mean to tell me that they re-released that incredibly fugly SSJ3 Goku as it was?! No PC version?

Personally I think it would of been better releasing in saga waves. Along the lines of: Wave 1: Goku, Vegeta, Nappa, Tien (with The Pokemon ), Yamcha, Piccolo, Roshi & possibly Kid Gohan, Raditz Wave 2: The Ginyu Force, Frieza, Dende, Nail, SSJ Goku, Bulma Wave3: 17, 18, 19, 20, Cell, Gohan (base-SSJ2), Trunks (teen and after time chamber), SSJ Vegeta Wave 4: Fat Buu, Super Buu, Kid Buu, Goku SSJ2&3, Gohan, Goten, Kid Trunks, Satan, Vegetto, Gotenks (with SSJ&3) Wave 5: Broly, Cooler, Bojack, Slug, Old Kai, King Kai Wave 6: Kid Goku, GT Trunks, GT Pan, Baby (non-ape), Super 17, Omega Shenron, SSJ4 Goku, SSJ4 Vegeta Wave 7: SSJ4 Gogeta, Gogeta (base & SSJ), Bardock, Tarble, Chi-Chi Obviously either updating or delaying for God & ressurection releases. That's interesting, though it makes sense why they released their initial figures the way they did. They wanted to get the ones that would be purchased the most first; Piccolo, SS Goku, SS Gohan, SS Vegeta, SS Trunks, and the biggest villians. I do like the idea of waves, with it being somewhat similar to the way Irwin did it. For further releases, this would be my take: (Waves would be a years worth of releases.) Saiyan Saga Wave 1 (New): Normal Goku (Swappable Torsos for Turtle/King Kai Gi), Nappa, Raditz, Kid Gohan (Piccolo Outfit, bowlcut & Long hair), Tien (w/Chiaotzu), Yamcha (w/Puar) Wave 1 (Reissue): Original Vegeta, Piccolo Namek/Freeza Saga Wave 2 (New): Form 1 Freeza, Krillin (With Siayan/named Gi), Bulma (Namek Outfit), Ginyu Force 5 Pack Wave 2 (Reissue): SS Goku, Final Form Freeza Android/Cell Saga Wave 3 (New): Trunks (After Hyperbolic Time Chamber), 1st Form Cell, Master Roshi (w/Oolong or Turtle), Chi Chi, Hercule Wave 3: (Reissue): Trunks, SS Vegeta, SS Gohan, Cell Saiyaman/Tournament Saga Wave 4 (New): The Great Saiyaman, Gohan (Blue/Purple gi), Videl, Kid Trunks, Goten, Krillin w/hair (w/Maron) Buu Saga Wave 5 (New): Majin Vegeta (W/ normal/SS/SSJ2 Majin head), Gotenks (W/ SSJ/SSJ3 head), Fat Buu (W/Bee), Super Buu, Kid Buu, Dabura (w/ Babadi) Wave 5 (Reissue): SSJ3 Goku, maybe Vegito DBSuper/NewMovies Wave 6 (New): Beerus, Whis, SSGSS Vegeta, Jaco, Tien (Fukkatsu Outfit, he's lookin' fly), SSG Goku Other Movies Wave 7 (New): Gogeta, Cooler (Final Form), Janemba (Final Form w/Sword), Tapion, Turles, Lord Slug Wave 7 (Reissue): Broly maybe GT Wave 8 (New): GT Goku (w/SSJ-SSJ3 head), Trunks (W/SSJ hair), Pan, Baby (non-ape), Super 17, Omega Shenron, SSJ4 Goku, SSJ4 Vegeta And then, after all of those, I would likely be bankrupt. Personally, yes to all of those, but if I were to add to the GT line, I'd include Goten (base + SS), Gohan (base + SS, in the suit, maybe?), and all the Shenrons (maybe Eis and Nuova in a two-pack?)

I can live with the hair. As long as they're consistent with SSJ hair from now on, it looks fine. It does have light shading so at least it doesn't look terrible like Vegito's. Really liking the blue on this one, gives a nice BoG feel to it. Agreed.

I started to, but I buy things on impulse a lot. Still working on that, though.

I feel like I may have shafted myself here, but I just got a deal for $173.98 on Amazon for 18 and 17, with free shipping on my Prime membership. That's after my $30 gift card, so do you think that's good?

My votes:
1. Majin Vegeta (need a Buu Vegeta) 2. SSJ2 Goku (seems only logical) 3. Future Trunks in armor 4. Goten and Kid Trunks 5. Gogeta
If you had given us more options here, Janemba would have also been highlighted, as well as Tien (w/ Chiaotzu) and Yamcha.

You know what? I'm getting this Vegeta. I missed out on the original SS Vegeta, and I don't give a crap if the skin/underarmor colors are mismatched, I will display him with my Scouter Vegeta's normal head and folded arms. Hell, that's the primary reason I got my Scouter Vegeta, and my money will not go to waste.

Going to be a loooong wait! I suppose if you're lucky to get one from Japan beforehand then you'll have a step up! The mass quantities of this figure are aimed at two places: Japanese retail stores and the International Market. I wouldn't be surprised if this figure becomes the "common re-release" instead of SSJ Goku v1. Indeed. Maybe they'll end up re-releasing both, but that seems like a long shot after this. He's up on amazon for $46.99!! It's full on retail :/ P.s they also have the aura pieces for $21.99 I saw that, too. Getting four in yellow for my future Saiyans(SWA Goku, PC Vegeta + Trunks cause I missed, SS Gohan) and one in blue for Piccolo.

If- no, WHEN they make Jeice (and I'm being optimistic here), they better not screw him over with no effect part or stand. They DAMN sure better give him his Crusher Ball, or I will be Crush(er Ball)ed to extreme sadness.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.
But here's a thought... if you do it right and keep from damaging it, you can use a Super Spirit Bomb Goku torso to replace your Awakening Goku's torso with it and more accurately display his true "awakening."

Who do you guys think we'll be getting sometime in the future? Just curious to see how it plays out here. Also, this is Hatchiyack for those who haven't seen the OVA he was in.

Okay, so we know there are going to be two SDCC releases. We know one's gonna be the Frieza Saga Goku that was originally released in Mexico. Who do you guys think the other's gonna be?
