$40? Is that how much you've been paying for your WCF? You can get some of them off Amazon for as little as $6 (rarely), Barnes & Noble with a 30% off coupon for $11, Hot Topic for a varied amount, and ebay you can get sets from Japan for around $85ish.

I paid 22 for Xeno-Sama from japan on ebay. the only Monaka I can find is 44$. Buyee has them for 23ish plus their fees will be like 6$ then the second shipping will be another 5-ish so I could get one for low 30s with a little patience. maybe a bit cheaper if I see one around 18$(the lowest ive seen thus far) on Buyee. I will look closer at Amazon but please link me if you see a cheap Monaka, Oracle fish, or Marron w/ Android 18 not in a complete set. I would greatly appreciate it!

Wow you people get things so cheap in US. You can wait, use discount coupons and get them more cheap. So so lucky! I have to keep struggling and wait for years to get them and that too at a higher rate.

It actually looks good. Here's a pic(not mine).  And yes that WCF Zen-oh should have been bigger, just like that WCF Pilaf. He's got a good size to him which is very very nice. These wcf over the years have gone small, not sure what's happening there. |

This comparison video of the Sculture7 Broly might help you Branjita2:19 Comparison with the vibrating Vegeta figure. 2:29 Comparison with a small Broly figure. 3:00 Comparison with a big Scultures(not sure) SS3 Goku figure. 3:07 Comparison with the D.O.D(not sure) Broly figures. Add to that these pics i clicked to help you get a better idea of his size it's placed besides this Vegeta and Doom's sent you a SHF Gohan. Without flash.  With flash.  Figures kept side by side, without flash.  without flash.  It's good to see someone put in so much effort, makes me happy. |

Thanks Alden !! You know, it's funny, since only dead Yamcha and histamine Vegeta were made, it's almost as if Vegeta is crying and sweaty because Yamcha is dead  Based on that stuff Alden provided, it would be something like this:  This is slightly skewed as a comparison, because I technically should have made Angel Goku and SS Goku larger, because doom has Figuarts SS2 Gohan standing in front of them, but I didn't. To be REALLY technical, I should have cut Broly out and put him OVER the Figuarts SS Gohan and over Angel Goku, because he's closer to the camera as well. And I know that Vegeta isn't 5 inch scale because I have the Yamcha, and he's Real Works scale basically, so like 4 to 4.5 inch scale. But anyway, I can NOW tell a lot about the size of Broly's head thanks to this extra comparison, and I would say that he will definitely scale well with 5 inch figures based on these comparisons. I don't think his head will look too large and thus look out of place in my collection. I would assume that Broly's head will be about the size of Jakks USS Trunks' head, which is a little tiny bit larger than the average Jakks head.  I need to finish that Trunks head swap someday... |

Saw this on Facebook. Somebody posted it and credited "pjpnq599" for it. They painted him fancy and as SS and made a better base. It looks a lot nicer like this to be honest. Attachment DeletedAttachment DeletedAttachment DeletedAnd oh, I forgot I made this. Based on the more recent comparisons, I think my initial thought had him a little smaller than he actually is, but it's still fun to look at like this (to me).   I get the feeling he'd look more like the one on the right I just modified. Or somewhere inbetween these too. Makes me excited. I want to buy one, but I also want to wait until I can find a coupon for him somewhere or something if I wait. The previous set of Scultures ended up at Barnes & Noble I'm pretty sure, so maybe if I wait I can use a 15% to 30% off coupon and get him for around $25 without paying any shipping... But then there's the exciting question of... what form should this Broly be in my collection? Do I really need or want a blue haired one? Is he too muscular to be the blue haired version? He's definitely too muscular to be the black haired version and the hair is all wrong for that.    He's still wearing the headband, so I feel like he's only suitable with blue hair given he's wearing that.   Animated GIF versionThat headband shatters off his head when he transforms. So he's stuck (in my collection) as restricted, blue-hair SS. |

Lots of good material here. I need two WCF Zenos.... Branjita Christmas? Lol I knew Broly would fit. And in case of him not, the slight fix would be super easy. I will keep him blue haired and add purple shading to differentiate him from SSB. The shape of the hair being tied doesn't make it right for regular SS like that repaint. You can tell it's off. And he's definitely too buff for normal form. Thanks for the size comparisons, Bran, and for the additional shots by Alden. |

I'll watch Amazon Adrenaline. Why two? One to make Tarble's wife? Are they related in the anime/same species? |

In dragonball super there are 2 of that character. One from our timeline and one from the future trunks abberation timeline(which no longer exists). Goku rescued the xeno from that timelines collapse and brought him to our multiverse to be friends with our xeno. All scenes with xeno in current episodes feature both characters. Though I doubt there will be 2 at the current sagas conclusion

I finally got around to getting oolong in his new outfit so I thought I'd take a comparison image with other oolong close to 5" scale. There's still a few more I want. Guess I'm working on an Octagon village.  |

Looks like the one in the center is surely the most appropriate to the 5 inch scale. For my DB collection, I was very satisfied with putting the Chara Puchi head (far left figure) on the body of the DWC/WCF Oolong (second from the right). It's very well scaled.
