No it hasn't happened to me, but the fear that it will happen has kept me from posing Piccolo as much as the other figures. I'm the same way with Trunks' bangs, but those don't look quite as fragile. Since Piccolo is one of the heavier figures, I'm worried that the Tamashii stands will give out and he'll face plant into the ground, that's happened to me a couple of times with SS Goku and scared the crap out of me.

It shipped! You guys got me all excited for it! I'm so happy to hear all the praise. When I bought it, it was more of a "I know I will regret it", because I didn't want to spend all the money on him. The only character I would be willing to overspend on is Goku. Piccolo looked great from all your pictures! Your gonna love him. Definitely the best made. That's really impressive! Is it because of the new paint job or was the manga version already the best? Either way, I'm not complaining, if it's the best! |

Thank you for putting that out there for people who display their figures. I never thought of that. I appreciate it! |

Either way, I'm not complaining, if it's the best! Well I got the manga one when he was first released I believe in 2009? But sold him a few years ago and now I have the sdcc one. Overall both are the best figures. Very accurate to the character. |

 Got my first Piccolo from BBTS yesterday. In terms of posing, I wanted to use the folded arms but wasn't able to work them in. I felt if I tried to force it any harder that the purple sleeves would snap off, or that something else would've have broken... I had the same issue when trying to display sell in terms of the folding arms.  |

Glad you got him. How do you like him overall? Besides ss3 goku. He's my favorite.

Very nice Harbinger. Piccolo, either the original or the SDCC one, is easily one of the best Figuarts to date. As far as the folded arms just give them a bit of effort and they will pop in. If you are worried about the sleeve part breaking just pop them off first.

I think I might try to get this guy next. Is he worth the $70 on bluefin?

Cheapest you'll ever see him if you ask me. Other places have him for near the same price or more. eBay is just ridiculous for SHF.

I still like the SDCC Gohan best... but that's only because I like the character. Freeza looks really awesome as well. Very nice Harbinger. Piccolo, either the original or the SDCC one, is easily one of the best Figuarts to date. As far as the folded arms just give them a bit of effort and they will pop in. If you are worried about the sleeve part breaking just pop them off first. I had a hell of a time with one of the sleeves on the manga version Gohan when I owned him, so I'm going to avoid touching the sleeve as much as I can  . |

I had the same issue when trying to display sell in terms of the folding arms. To put on his crossed arms piece, the trick is to do both sides at once. I might not seem to be firmly in place, but once they're on it's easier press them in more securely; without exerting excessive force on any one single piece. |
