Hong Kong actually. I'm basing the time frame off of how long it took for my Fist of the North Star Kenshiro figure to arrive from over there, which by the way is an awesome figure. That's not that bad either considering its Hong Kong. I think it would take the same amount of time if I order something for there to be shipped here. |

I wish  . It was the Revoltech version. Happy it was in 6" scale compared to most Revoltech figures that are more the 4" scale. |

Just looked up pictures of him. I think it actually looks better than the Medicom one. How good are the Revoltech figures? I only ask because I might want to buy their Fullmetal Alchemist Ed and Al.

I only have 2 from them. Fist Kenshiro and Jason Voorhess. Both are incredibly detailed with excellent articulation. The hips are all cut joints but if you have seen or had a Hybrid DBZ figure then you know exactly how they work. Just be aware that it seems only the Fist of the North Star Revolution line are in the 6" scale that I know of.

I have some Hybrids and the thing that pisses me off most is that if you swap out the hands after that the hands will fall off just by looking at them the wrong way. The way the hand joints work are just stupid. Joints are loose and fragile as well. Ok if you just keep them in one position ever but if you pose them beware.

I own the ss4 goku and vegeta, broly and Gt kid goku. They are the only hybrids whos arms aren't held by pegs. Their foot joint also has a larger peg and ball than the others. I used to own the trunks and vegeta. The arms just fall off, and the pegs holding the feet snapped. I do not recommend this brand except for the ss4s and Broly.

I saw your review of Kid Buu on YouTube and saw the problems you were having with the right arm and left forearm falling off all the time. All I can do is hope that the Kid Buu I just purchased is ok. I own the ss4 goku and vegeta, broly and Gt kid goku. They are the only hybrids whos arms aren't held by pegs. Their foot joint also has a larger peg and ball than the others. I used to own the trunks and vegeta. The arms just fall off, and the pegs holding the feet snapped. I do not recommend this brand except for the ss4s and Broly. I have seen that the quality has increased with the GT and Broly figures. |

Found this review on YouTube for the Hybrid SS3 Goku and Cell and I think it shows just how fragile they can be. Especially Cell.

Now I see the issues with falling apart with the Cell in that vid. Kinda sucks, but they do look great.

The only ones that are really a ridiculous price are the three GT SS4 figures, Goku, Vegeta and Gogeta. All of them selling for well over $100.

My hybrid Bardock has a very loose foot for no reason, it was like that when I took it out of the box. Also, a piece of the stand broke very easily. I was so disappointed with it.

Except for my first Cell figure which broke everything has been fine with my collection. As far as the loose foot you could try putting some superglue in the socket. I did this with my Gotenks by layering it on with a paintbrush and it worked great.
