Launch and Yamcha look good, but I am still very disappointed at the overall sad selection they created. Don't these people know that other characters exist that will bring in more sales than what they're making? It's fantastic that they can sculpt like a complete pro, but what good is it if they only know a handful of characters to make? Shame shame shame.

we got Arale, Lunch (not LAUNCH, Jesus, she's not gonna launch any missiles from her breast) and Yamcha. I don't think they are usual characters/figures

I think this assortment is fantastic. There's only 2 Saiyans and Pan who barely counts as one. That's what I call variety! I don't like Pan as a character, but not many figures of her exist. Lunch figures are rare, so are Porunga. Yamcha figures definitely are rare too. I just added newly released images of Yamcha. Absolutely impressed!!! This is going to be so cool...

Yamcha just looks more incredible each time I see a new pic. The rest of the selection just pales in comparison.

As much as I claim to want everything to be about Vegeta I really love seeing rarely made characters and dynamic/different poses and outfits we rarely see. I just wish they all were bigger and released in groups that made sense. The only thing I don't like in this set is that shoehorned in SS Goku. Its like someone forgot a Goku is mandatory and just picked one of the most generic versions of him. Its nice but I'd rather have more different Gokus we haven't seen. Then again I just so over blonde Super Saiyans so I'm bias One question on Lunch, are those her correct colors? I know there is a lot of dispute about coloring in the series but just wanted to know if there was some other reference shot that uses these colors.

Here's the anime colors for Lunch, I think those colors on the figure are from the redo of the manga when Toriyama drew new covers for them all in like 2008 or whatever.

It's annoying that they would base the colours of his recolouring of an originally anime still. I'm pretty sure everyone wants the blue-haired pink-dressed Launch. /:

I did a search of my hard drive and found these pics. I was wrong about her being on the rereleased mangas or whatever... you know... the ones that all have red backgrounds... She's blonde on that and in her regular clothes.

I dont like the black hair for Lunch much. i will get only Yamcha, unless i will find some of the others for less than 20$.

I will definitely get Yamcha, and if I can find Bulma and Lunch on sale, I'll get them too and likely customize them. Bulma I'll lengthen the legs, and Lunch I'll repaint. But that's only if they will blend in with the scale of my IF Labs DB figures. If they are a different scale, I'm not too interested unfortunately. Hopefully they are the same size, and they will be if they match the size of most of the Bulma figures banpresto has made already. I really like the Trunks figure, but I only collect DBZ in 5 inch and 2 inch scale.
In series 5 it would be cool if we got a 4 armed Tien and Yardrat Goku.

I really dont like both Trunks and Goku.. seem to me like they throw those in to keep some mainstream characters in the wave.
For wave 5 my wishes will be too 4 armed Tien - amazing Yamcha from 22nd or 23nd Tenkaichi Mecha Frieza King cold sitting on throne Bear Thief Giran Bacterian Major Metallitron

I really like the idea of a bottom half and top half of Hildegarn too. That would be so cool. I think they'd have to do it that way too in order to make him large enough. They could do his first form, and then his second form the same way.
Bacterian would be fantastic.
