I have an issue with my Tao Pai Pai figure: i can't put the figure on its stick because of the 2 specific left foots included do not fit. Do you guys have that kind of problem too? mine doesn't have that problem, but his left legs pops off if you move it because its too tight. On Facebook, some other fans have the same issue as i do, but i can see on YouTube that some others don't, such as you. I guess it depends. Thanks for your answer and the thing about the legs.

Some people are saying UI Goku needs more muscular arms, akin to the Super Saiyan Awakening version but I'd say I disagree, on a story standpoint.
While Super Saiyan is a power increase and leads to more muscle mass, Ultra Instinct is more like an awakening of perception, of the battle spirit inside the warrior, and is something that even Gods have trouble mastering.
Whis for instance is much more powerful than Goku but he is extremely thin, because he doesn't rely on muscle mass to be powerful.
Now maybe you'll say "But clearly when he punches Jiren while in UI it does much more damage than when he was in SSGSS / Blue so it means he's stronger".. yes and no. I'd say UI lets Goku know EXACTLY where to hit to hurt for maximum damage, while a less awakened state would make him punch where he -thinks- it'll hurt most, but maybe not the exact spot..almost like pressure points. Same deal with avoidance, UI Goku doesn't need to be faster than Blue, he simply knows what minimum movement is required and the precise moment when to duck / weave / dodge to minimize energy consumption..
I'm totally fine with UI Goku not being a muscle beast, it's more fitting for more savage forms, this is supposed to be a refined form.

Quick question, does anyone know what stand hacchaka used in these photos? It looks like Tamashii Stands, but the holding clips look thicker than what I have.

Some of the other versions of Tamashii stands have those better clips. I couldn't say specifically what those ones are though.

Well I just pre-orderd Zamasu. This is a first for me because I never preorder ANYTHING. But since Zamasu is apparently a special case, I don’t think I had a choice. I’d rather spend the $58 on it now then spend the $100+ scalper prices that will pop up at the end of the year

More QC issues... Looks like a third party company now

I'm in Canada and I'm pissed that Zamasu is US exclusive. Signed up to P-Bandai then found out when I tried to check out. If anyone in the US is doing group orders for International customers please let me know.
Also, I think the Zamasu and Vegito probably were going to be the SDCC exclusives but Bandai saw the writing on the wall that it was going to be cancelled and put them on P-Bandai instead.

SDCC Exclusives are always repaints of existing releases, with maybe like 1 or 2 extra accessories like an extra faceplate or alternate belt/sash. Very unlikely that Zamas & Vegito would’ve been part of that
I’ll see if I can acquire a few more Zamas in the next few weeks to help some of you out, but I can’t make any promises

First Off, SDCC Exclusives Are Repaints And Aren’t New Molds And Also I Think SDCC Exclusives Are Announced Around May/June. Speaking Of What Do You Guys Think Are Going To Be This Years SDCC Exclusives (Or NYC Exclusives If It’s Still On If They Still Have Them)? My Bets Are Gotenks (Base), Nappa (Anime Colors), Super Sayian Gogeta (Fusion Reborn Or Dragon Ball Super: Broly). , Or Mr Satan (DBS).

Dragon Ball Super Manga Chapter 59 Spoiler: Seem's Goku can now go Omen Ultra Instinct at will now but not Mastered. Hopefully if the DBS Anime ever returns and they keep this plot point it will give Tamashii even more reason to give us an Omen Ultra Instinct figure

friezku I'd love a Nappa I can actually get without spending the equivalent of a whole Irwin or Jakks set for.

I think that if/when they make SSBlue Evolution Vegeta, he would pair great with Hakaishin Toppo. He has weird muscular proportions, might be a little top-heavy but Tamashii can pull it off

I know that most of the collectors here already have it, but for those who are interested, Goku SROE will be rereleased on May.
