Dragon Stars - (Dragon Ball Super figures released in US)

Any EastCoast sightings yet? Seems as if Cali has gotten it first, but no shipments on my side just yet

That at least makes sense, I cleared out the stock for both of my Walgreens last September, but they never restocked. There's even still an empty space, still labeled for Dragon Stars. So if it's not that there's leftover stock, and it's not a space issue, then what the heck is it? I'll poke my head in both of them soon, and see if maybe Lady luck will look upon me kindly.

I went to 7 different Walgreens yesterday, thinking I might use my free time and loan car from a dealership to waste some time. Well, I did waste some time, because only 2 of those 7 Walgreens had DB Super figures. One was the one nearest where I live... still just the Frieza I returned and 3 SS Vegetas. Then one of them had Frieza and nobody else. I was hoping one of them had the series with Hit, since I've never seen that series anywhere. But nope.

Managed to find Jiren "What do you mean I skipped leg day?" the Grey.


Went to both of my Walgreens, only one had him. There were two Jirens and nobody else. Asked the guy at the register if he could check if they had more in the back, he instead told me that he knew there weren't any, how in demand these figures are, and how they all got scalped. 

Oh well, at least I got one of them. More pictures coming later.

Anxiety is on overdrive. My priority for this set is Cabba, but I really want Kale, so I have to get everyone even Gohan Again Version. Maybe I’ll paint his outfit into Manga-accurate Piccolo clothes.
Oh, can we get a box back pic? I wanna know who comes with which parts.

Jiren came out pretty darn good, he strikes a good pose, and the sculpt is on point. The legs still have the same problem I've talked about before, but they aren't as bad. On a positive note, he has a hinged neck, something I'm really peeved that isn't standard issue on all of these figures. Overall, if you like Jiren, he's a good buy and I'd personally recommend him.

On to pictures!















Larry I will totally get that pic for you in a bit, I'm just in bed with a cold right now (killed two birds with one stone by going to Walgreens, meds and figures ) and the box is downstairs, so I'll grab it in a bit.

Great review VR! I typically dislike figure reviews (I'm a super impatient person) but yours was short and to the point and awesome! Great job!

I ordered Rose on Amazon and he came the other day. I have mixed feelings about opening him. I like Rose in Dokkan Battle, but my only Figuarts are Saiyan Saga, so I don't know where I would display him. To further complicate this, I just ordered the Figuarts Rose bootleg off ebay last night for the incredibly low price of $12.59 and free shipping. www.ebay.com/itm/S-H-Figuarts-Dragon-ball-Z-Super-Gokou-Black-PVC-Figure-Toy-Gift-New-In-Box/302766452897?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 So if that figure is as good as the people on Facebook are saying it is (basically awesome... but has poorly painted boots... and is overall slightly smaller than the legit figure), I will either be returning or reselling the Dragon Stars Rose. I'd rather swap his head onto a 5 inch scale body and make a custom, but Kami knows I don't spend any free time customizing anymore...   But I may still do that.

ascendedsaiyan great Jiren pics! I hope to find him! Do you think he would be suitable for my 5 inch scale collection, or too tall? I don't know much about Jiren since I haven't gotten that far in Super yet.
