Is that just a really fancy viewfinder? Nah it's got miniature film reels, but I think they're only like 2 mins long and no audio. I found other ones like this for Super Sentai and some other old anime shows. |

Love the detail of that Goku. Interesting design for a bust.

I have a question that I didn't feel needed a new thread. With the Hybrid SS Trunks would it be more accurate to display him without the sword as he is not wearing his Capsule Corp jacket?

Not really as he is often seen with the sword when he's just wearing the wife beater but its your choice as either are fine.

The average Popy mini big head is worth plus or minus $5. The space pod? I'm afraid that probably isn't very valuable unless somebody was somehow trying to complete a set by buying the figures individually (gosh that would suck and be expensive!). Mini big heads were some of the very few Japanese products that were actually sold as entire sets per case instead of the stupid blind box gamble of not even ending up with a full set if you bought 3 cases of the figures (like what happens with Soul of Hyper Figuration, Unifive Posing Figures, and many other small figures). It's pretty frustrating to buy an entire case and you end up with duplicate figures.  |

That's actually not true Bran. Mini big heads WERE sold as random assortments. A Factory sealed box was only 20 figures where as an actual set is 24 , plus the ultra rare secret figure , plus some of the sets had insanely rare mono colored gold or silver figures (IE: the frieza set it was possible to get the 5 ginyu force members in silver.) When you purchased a case, you were only getting 20 individual boxes, with a chance of doubles within that box. Luckily most sellers though went through the trouble of opening multiple cases and assembling sets, which they then put up for sale. I know this for fact because I actually purchased a sealed box of the Cell saga set from angolz when they were available. I ended up with only 17 unique figures , with 3 duplicates.

Really? My bootleg case of them fit 25 boxes, but my mystery figure was missing, which I believe was Goku with his head/hair wrapped from when he arrived to the last Tenkaichi Budokai in DB. The way they did the legit ones sucks ass if what you're saying is actually how they did it. In other news, holy crap, what a nice cel! uP2Rw~~60_57.JPG) |

Yeah, that's 100% how it's done. It is really lame having to buy two boxes to HOPEFULLY complete a set. The way Japanese sellers who have completed sets do it, is you'll get the outer display carton with 20 boxes in it , then 4 or 5 boxes (depending on if you shelled out for the secret figure or not.) just shrink-wrapped together. I have 4 of the 8 sets, with 2 more on the way and they've all come like that from japan.
It's an admittedly clever gimmick to sell figures though. The way Megahouse does it is especially dirty. When you purchase a full case, you'll get the whole set, BUT 2 to 3 of the figures in the case will be gold (and who wants those?) forcing you to either buy another case, or track down the replacement color versions as singles. It's Scummy , but a genius way to sell cases.
As for that cel you just posted.... Damn. That's a REALLY good one.
