I've got two First Form Frieza from HG on pre-order. I'm gonna want one in the pod and one out of the pod.

It can finally replace the Dragon Stars Frieza that I superglued into the Figure Rise pod. 🤣

I’m making my own King Kold Kustom to pair with Freezer. Tamashii MIGHT make him, but he had so little screen time & I don’t think they feel he is a priority. I don’t recall seeing him on any surveys either. If they do then it is still years away from being released. I don’t want to wait until 4th quarter 2024 for something that may or may not happen lol

I was thinking of making a King Cold too in the future, I heard Demoniacal Fit's Ginyu might make a good base.

It’s the best we got at the moment. It requires some modifications, some shading here n there but it’s a good starting point. Some reference images show King Kold as being damn near 15ft tall, sheesh. He’s big but not THAT big.

I don’t want to wait until 4th quarter 2024 for something that may or may not happen lol To be fair, I'll argue that most of the Ginyu Force only had a few episodes before dying and being dispatched and they got figures. They must be more popular then. I'm willing to wait for a great King Cold figure. But not for 10 years. Even if it's Dragon Stars it'll tide me over. I'm just tired of seeing his only figure going for ridiculous prices. Greedy-a** sellers... I mean, I'm glad I have it, but good luck getting one at only 1- or 2 hundred. They get snatched like hot buns.
I think Tamashii (or the makers of DS) have an opportunity here for King Cold fans as his only figure is so elusive.

I’m assuming you’re talking about the Jakks King Cold. All listings I’ve seen of him are loose with no official packaging, damaged/missing parts (like the cape), etc. and they’re still asking crazy prices for it. I get it it’s a rare figure, but come on
If Dragon Stars made one then I’d be interested. But it will have to depend what it looks like. I’m not expecting SHF quality but I don’t want it to look like crap either lol

You assume correct, crisis. It's nuts. And the better the condition the more horribly overpriced. Beerus Chr*st, even Mecha Frieza doesn't go that expensive. It's nonsense.
I'd get two if he got one. I see the way they did the capes on Piccolo and Chi Chi, Cold could have a similarly made one?
My Jeice may also come this week, I'm excited for him!

Looking at the price of Jakks Omega Shenron makes me cry. I tossed him in the trash with most of my Irwin /Jakks years ago not knowing they're actually worth money.

After doing a quick sold listings search on eBay it’s fairly obvious why Goku Black’s getting rereleased. Demoniacal fit’s version is selling for more than £70. Their own version is selling for more than £100. I don’t remember any Goku Blacks being easy to get in the UK at any point. Despite all our disappointments that it’s not a new figure, it makes sense at least. The Instagram post also says it’s an “entry grade” figure. The others listed like that are usually £20-30. I never got any Goku Black before so maybe I’ll get this one if it’s cheap. Entry Grade is a new initiative by Tamashii Nations. The lower price point of $35 products is to help get newer collectors and sell at retails stores like Target.

i always most of the time buy only official releases ... as much the demoniacle fit tempted me, i refused to buy them .. wanna keep my collection all standardize ..
and for bandai initiative of entry grades, i find it funny .. they started it with damashii doraemon, shf naruto, ultraman ... at less accessories, but more expensive than initial releases with more accessories ... if you recalled the rrp for those before entry grade initiative...

I’m willing to bet you would buy a Demoniacal Fit King Vegeta or Metal Cooler, whereas Tamashii isn’t even considering them as an SHF
