Double posting because I'm evil So I finally got them all unboxed And vegito is pretty good, the neck is a little bit stumpy but compared to gogeta it's possible I think. Beerus is just fine, I appreciate the fact that it's a new sculpt, and it's a character who it's great to have a articulated figure in this scale, but the like upper torso likes to pop off a lot and because he's so thin it feels pretty frail. Battle damaged ssj Goku He sucks, I was really really excited for him and he just sucks, the whole body is completely newly tooled, it seems to be a bit smaller than your average evolve Goku, the head looks to be a bit smaller than the SSB head, the upper torso and arms are a different sculpt to than the ultra instinct, and my biggest issue is he too has a stumpy neck but it is arguably the worst stumpy neck I've ever seen, and then on top of that the ball joint connector is pretty thick so it feels like it's kind of like rip off if you pop on the head. I'll post pictures here in a few I just kind of wanted to rant about the Goku lol Also got Target SSJ Goku in, I really like him, gave him ultra instinct's fists, sadly Vegito's belt doesnt fit him, so you'd probably just wanna mod the regular belt if you prefer the sash look   |

Wow! That's crazy! Maybe they were trying to make SS Goku look younger and smaller? My 3 figures should arrive sometime this week, so I'll be sure to do a review. Did you order from Amazon? How did you get yours so soon?

I did order mine from amazon, but I noticed that once the 15th hit that they actually said one day delivery, even though my original date was going to be the 19th.
At first I was tempted just to order another set and then just cancel the previous one but, instead I took a bit of a chance and I clicked update my delivery date and it updated it to one day so I got it the next day. I tried it with another thing that was supposed to be shipping soon and that pushed my date back for that. So not the most reliable method

I'm finding Beerus to the worst of the new wave. His left arm, upper torso, and tail all like to pop apart from general posing. He also lacks a bicep swivel for some reason, similar to Freeza.

Carlito Gaztea is the best!!!!   Dragon Ball Evolve Series 5 Piccolo, Walmart exclusive SS Gohan, and Target exclusive Ultimate Gohan!  Here they are Photoshopped together into 1 image:  I wish we were getting a Beast Gohan head, and a 3rd unique figure, but I am THRILLED to see new characters in this line! I also hope to not have to wait for an entire year to see 3 more characters. I'm getting old, and tired of waiting.  |

Kind of random question but I’m relatively new to dragon ball figures so I don’t know much about older lines, what figures/figure lines scale well with the evolve? I’ve been thinking of getting some 5 inch figures I have a dumb display idea and want some dragon ball ones for it ^^

aquamarina Most of my collection is dedicated to figures that scale with Evolve: dragonballfigures.com/thread/4172/branjitas-2022-collection So that's most of Irwin's figures, a lot of Jakks Pacific ones, all of the DBZ Bandai Super Battle Collection ones (the DBGT ones are larger), and some of the European figures (AB Super Guerriers, DeAgostini, Editions Atlas, Giochi Preziosi). Are you asking about specifically DB, not DBZ/GT/S? If so... that's tricky. As you can see in my collection thread... my DB shelf is pretty empty on 5 inch scale DB figures, which is why there are a lot of WCF and Popy Mini Big Head figures. There aren't a lot of 5 inch scale options out there and there's a lot of mixing and matching (which is now very expensive to do).

Some people in the US have started spotting SS Gohan in Walmarts this week, so he must be out. I checked their website, and he's not on there yet. There's a few on ebay as well.  |

I checked two Walmarts yesterday and found SS Gohan at the second one. They must be shipping entire cases of just SS Gohan to Walmart, because he was the only figure there. I didn't count them, but there were at least 8 of them. He was on the action figure aisle directly next to the similar looking Naruto figures and the Power Rangers figures. I took photos this morning and posted my review here: dragonballfigures.com/thread/4304/dragonball-evolve-series-walmart-exclusive |

Curious if they'll end up repainting him into anime colors.

Who? Piccolo? I believe he appeared this way until his transformation, that made his belt black, antennas curve upward, and his skin more yellow. I'd have to watch the movie again to be sure.

Piccolo being Amazon exclusive kind of worries me I hope this doesn’t mean they might be ending the line soon I just got into it lol
