And even if Gohan's figuarts version is too big, it's still within the margin of splitting hairs imo.
I'm inclined to say, anyway, that it's Cell who's too short and thin, contrary to Gohan being too tall.

Silrian, that's ok, disagreements are all just part of discussion and forums in general, no need to try to convince each other one way or another. If you're happy with their interpretations of Gohan and Trunks, that's all that matters. However, I do hope they at least make Yamcha significantly taller/larger than Goku, but wonder how they will do that when Tien needs to be even larger than Yamcha, and that's going to mean Tien would be basically Piccolo's size! Oh well! For my own collection, all I really care about is (if they will make them), that Tien, Yamcha, Chaozu, Puar, and hopefully some Saibamen scale well with one another as that's what characters I would display together. For my own collection purposes, I don't care about the discrepancies of the previously produced figures that much, as I'm not going to own SS Gohan, SS Goku, etc. But I will care if they make Chaozu so tall the top of his head comes to Tien's belly button! It would be great if they would pick a scale and stick with it. TDC posted this somewhere, Attachment Deletedand these all scale pretty well together based on what I see. Piccolo and Cell are both a little short, but not too much. That basically leaves SS Goku, SS Vegeta, Saiyan Saga Vegeta, and SS Gohan being their own slightly out of size... size. Also, I didn't mean to take this topic off-topic. Continue on with the votes and wishes for who should be made everyone! I'll probably send Bluefin the results of these polls in the next 2 weeks.

Yeah no probs Bran! I guess I got the better end of the deal if I'm more content with the scales than you so far. As long as a figure isn't shorter or taller than a similar character were he/she shouldn't (so Yamcha should be taller than Goku, Goten shorter than Trunks), I'm fine with it. And yes, clearly Yamcha and Tien should be next as far as the voters on this board go. Although I'm still bummed my first pick isn't on the list. Is there anyone else who's genuine most wanted character isn't on the list...?

Is there anyone else who's genuine most wanted character isn't on the list...? I think it's Majin Vegeta for me. Although, Goku is my favorite character and the Buu Saga had tons of problems and bad writing (I hate a lot of things that were done with Goku's character), he's the reason why that saga is my favorite. And I love all of Dragon Ball, but if it wasn't for Majin Vegeta, it would be my least favorite. Whenever I think of Dragon Ball Z, all the Majin Vegeta stuff comes to mind. The transformation, the "pride speech", the killing of innocents at the stadium, the best re-match ever, the slap scene- WHAT CLOWN?, Vegeta hugging his son, Vegeta confessing his love and respect for his family and friends, and finally the sacrifice. Besides the speech, there's so many great poses I would put him him. It would give me more use for Trunks and Goten. I'd have him hugging Trunks and then sweetly gut punching Goten. Come to think of it, I would need to buy multiples, which I never do. I can't stand having multiple of things, but I would do it for Majin Vegeta for all those various poses. I don't customize either, but if he's not bloody, I'm going to have to. Yeah, I think he's number one. I want it now!

@baneofdemon22 And which vote would you toss if you could've voted Majin Vegeta in the 5 most wanted poll? I'd have ditched 16 if I could've voted Tall Armoured Trunks... (Saiyan/Namek Goku, Tien, Yamcha and 1F Frieza are staying in my top 5 no matter what characters weren't included in the poll.)

Is there anyone else who's genuine most wanted character isn't on the list...? Well, in thinking about it, if they made Zarbon, I'd buy one, and then probably hunt down a Saiyan Saga Vegeta for him to beat the crap out of I've always liked Zarbon and with my recent order of the Pioneer/Ocean dub of DBZ, I am excited about how cool Zarbon was in that version of the dub!!

^ I don't think Branjita can change the poll retroactively, I thought I saw him say that a while back. It'd also be effed up to people who voted and then didn't check back... I'd think it's either a completely new one, or roll with the current poll. But FTR I'd also buy Zarbon, but only if we have/get 1F Frieza too. And since he WAS on the poll, he needs to come first and then we have a shot at Zarbon coming too. (Oh yeah, that's definitely how I wanted to phrase that...)

Yeah this is what Bran said about characters that are not on the poll. If there's a character you really want made that isn't included in the poll, make sure to say it.

It won't let me edit polls. I think the 5-poll and 15-poll cover the characters that should be made for right now pretty decently though. Zarbon and Cooler can be in the next round of polling after we see some new prototypes of (hopefully) Yamcha/Puar, Tien/Chaozu, Bardock, Gotenks/Goten/Trunks, some form of Buu, Raditz, Android 16, Adult Gohan, and USS Broly in 6 months to a year.

^ I'd agreed with that if only this chap'd been included:P I mean, if he won't see a release now I wouldn't see why he'd ever and the Cell period isn't complete without him imo. And no the Vegeta body isn't good enough because post-time chamber Trunks is significantly lengthier, body & hair alike.

(Saiyan/Namek Goku, Tien, Yamcha and 1F Frieza are staying in my top 5 no matter what characters weren't included in the poll.) I've debating ever since this poll came out on characters and have switched some. I don't know if I should view this as if I could only have 5 more figures being made, what would I pick, or what I want first. It's actually easy for me to bump a character on my top 5, because I want so many at about the same level. I have different tiers. A character like Bardock would probably be in my fourth tier of characters I want (I think I voted him in 14th or 15th place) I would swap out Mystic/Ultimate Gohan easy for Majin Vegeta. I think I want teen Gohan pre-Mystic more though. Now I just have to decide which costume. I kind of want him the black suit, so I can put him with Goku and Vegeta when they go through Babidi's trials and the Dabura fight. Hey I completely forgot about Dabura! Although I really want him in a suit to go with Videl, so I'd be happy with the blue gi. How did you all view the poll? I first voted as if we could only get 5 more figuarts, what would I pick? So, I went right to characters like Tien and Yamcha to finish off the Z fighters and Kid Buu to complete the final villain forms. However, the question was what you want Figuarts to make the most and that's how I voted, assuming I would get others later on. It also really depends which direction they go next. Because of Nappa are we focusing on the Saiyan Saga, or Namek Saga because of Frieza, or Buu Saga because of SSJ3 Goku? I want a Yamcha (second tier), but can hold off for a long time, unless they go with the Saiyan Saga, I'd want him more to put with Krillen. If they go Buu Saga, Goten and Trunks (3rd tier for now) are going to be a higher priority. My fifth slot goes to whatever Saga direction they go with next to a version of Gohan. Man, I do want that version of Trunks for the Cell Games though! This is my top 5 "most wanted" right now: 1. Majin Vegeta 2. Kid Goku 3. Tien and Chiaotzu 4. Saiyan Saga Goku Those are my tier one characters 5. Saiyan Saga Gohan or Teen Gohan with SSJ Head (Depending on the Direction)

i have a feeling figuarts would eventually go with bardock and broly, just base on popularity. and most likely a type of buu somewhere. hopefully a super buu that comes with a gohan, gotenks absorbed and a regular one.

Branjita I wasn't putting on any sarcasm. I was actually referring to the official scales shown by the animators that I showed back on the old forum .
