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. Thank you kindly sir! Jiren is a pretty big guy width wise, but he's actually not incredibly tall. It varies from episode to episode, but he's generally a head or a half a head taller than Goku. So unfortunately, I don't think he would scale very well with most 5 inch figures. The first pic I took was actually in reference to this shot from the anime.  Considering I was able to get pretty close to this, I'd say he's difinitively scaled to fit in the dragon Stars/Figuarts size. Hope that helps! LarryKoopa sorry it's a little late, but here's the back of the box.  So the list is as follows: Jiren - Head Cabba - Body Vegetto - Left Arm Goku - Right Arm Gohan - Right Leg Freeza - Left Leg |

Branjita, Could you tell us more about that Bootleg Figuarts Black? Cause if it's good, I'll just skip the Dragon Stars. I want Gohan and Vegito, but I'm Broke as HFIL.

futureztrunks67 Yeah, when I get it in the mail I'll complain about it I'm sure  It might take a month to get to me from China. From what I have seen on Facebook, it looks acceptable. Big gaps in the elbows, poorly painted shoes, the paint job throughout is a bit contaminated (and by that I mean the figure has texture instead of being smooth, particularly the hair). But I question whether it is actually better than the Dragon Stars one. I mean... the DS one has terrible looking knees, so it might be better. You might want to jump on that $12 one though before it sells out. That's a lot cheaper than the others on ebay.

I think the quality of these has gone up a little, but so has price. The scale remains inconsistent just like Figuarts, but is not as bad. I wish they made Jiren's legs too long, so I could have a reason to shorten, but it looks like they can't be. The struggles of being a 5 inch scale collector continue....

I think the price is the same, is it not? I'm not really sure, but I think they've always been $19.99 most places.
I question whether I have any interest in Jiren and Berzerk Kale or not. I don't think they'll fit in with my 5 inch figures.

imgur.com/BLf4ObYimgur.com/FJWX0zRHere’s Jiren and Cabba with some Irwin figures. I really like the 2 but they are definitely out of scale for 5 inch (and each other lol). I don’t think it’d be totally impossible for some of the parts to be reused for customs though. Sorry for the bad quality photos!

Adrenaline look ^^^^ How big is Cabba supposed to be compared to Vegeta? I haven't seen that part of Super yet. Could that figure be cut down and a different head used, or would the body still be too out of scale? Is Cabba supposed to be about the same size as Tarble? Just with absolutely no muscle at all?

He's like a head shorter than Vegeta or so.

Since none of the stores near me seem to ever have the Dragon Stars line (other than Target) I ended up caving and just purchasing Jiren, Cabba and Vegito Blue on Amazon. I'm just hoping they're not damaged during shipping since their shoddy shipping seems to have a tendency to completely wreck Funko Pops.
With that said, I am completely caught up with all of the Dragon Stars figures released (minus the FighterZ lazy paintjob Goku & Vegeta that I don't want) including the SDCC Ultimate Deco Edition figure. Phew!

Cabba is pretty clearly supposed to be Tarble’s replacement.
