Anyone have this figure? I want to know if it's worth getting it. Someone sells it to me used for $40.   |

You'd want to make sure to ask for pictures of the upper chest. The rubber on the first release (or something like that) had a tendency to crack and rip. I believe Medicom sent out replacements or something. I barely remember... it was just something I vaguely recall about that figure.

Branjita is right. This one in specific has a neck problem in large quantities, that looks like the picture below. But I've never seen they doing something to replace it. But 40 box is a great price, cheaper than most of the shf

But 40 box is a great price, cheaper than most of the shf Good thing I asked, the seller is about 40 minutes away from me and he did mention about a little wear in the upper chest area and didn't make much of it but that picture made realize that it is a problem. Ill ask for a picture of it to see how bad it is, If I decide to buy it I'll try to get the price down to $30 or $25. How would I be able to get a replacement for the chest anyways? |

Not to severe as the picture above but I still need an opinion if it is still worth the pick up for $40?  |

If you like large figures that are highly articulated, then yes. That seems like a pretty good price. I believe it originally sold for a little more than that when new, and it's been out for around 10 years.

I picked him up today, and to be honest I love how the pay attention to the detail in the hair and overall is a very good figure. However I do want to get a replacement chest? if anyone knows how to get one or if someone sells one let me know.   |

You'd probably need to google that for an hour or so to find info. I don't know if it was discussed on DBF or if it was only discussed on the DBT proboards forum Mike deleted.

So I emailed Medicom and hopefully I get an answer. I had to use google translate to send them a message because everything was in japanese. Anyway would you think they would not replace my goku because it was bought off someone else?

It'd be amazing if they honored the replacement part after all this time. |
