Are we gonna be able to pre order these in the UK/EU? I know France has its own P-Bandai website but I'm not sure if I remember correctly Nope. The French store may get some but they do not deliver to the UK after Brexit. Your only chance is if they do an event in Paris and are willing to travel or pay scalpers on ebay. It really sucks being a Dragon Ball fan in the UK. ☹️

wait what he DOESN'T?!?! wtf did i just buy him for x-x In that case I'm still really hoping I can SOMEDAY find the original version of DBS Trunks for a REASONABLE price... What's with all the Daima hate I'm seeing around btw? I thought people were really excited for it, but folks already hate the main villain before we even met him. ouuugh all the pics of the new goku are making me upset I didn't pick up a second one. Although, they do seem to still be available from P-Bandai... surely, that's too good to be true? And I can't help but wonder if I can cut on shipping costs by getting them delivered to the P-Bandai store at American Dream mall or something

I don’t know if it’s “hate” per-say, but I think people think other characters deserved to be made first before Daima figures which hasn’t even premiered yet. Why haven’t they made an SHF janemba or whoever when he’s been on several surveys & polls for years now? Nobody has an answer, and I think that’s where the frustrations comes from

They don't release what we want because they have to fill the collection with other characters so we spend more money on the line.
I literally bought some figures that I didn't really need because there weren't anything better to get.
I think you have been in the same situation more or less.

This is precisely what shouldn't be done. That strategy doesn't work with me, i've already quit some lines because of that.

I hope they finish the Namek line with "Super Zarbon". I love me some "THE BEAST!" Plus this guy has a badass design. Normal Zarbon is awesome. But that "vain, princely look" trope is overdone. Plus him having an uglier form is a cool twist.
I also expect, somehow, they will do another Super Saiyan Goku, just one with the shirt from first transforming right after Krillin is killed. I also wonder if maybe, just maybe, we'd get a Spirit Bomb Battle Damage Frieza, with the cut tail and the closed eye. They could use this to try out a more Mecha Frieza-like mold as a basis for a new, updated Fourth Form Frieza down the line. But really. those 3 figures are all I expect if they continue/finish Namek. Nail would be awesome. But I don't know if they would do him.

Yes Monster Zarbon would be wicked to see, and I would be absolutely baffled if they don’t release him. Especially since they basically made 98% of all the characters from the Frieza/Namek Saga at this point.
Although I can see them skipping King Kai unfortunately, which would be odd since he played an integral role in both the Saiyan & Frieza arcs

Who is caught up with the manga? I cannot wait until it eventually gets animated // we get figures from the Moro arc.

The manga has been on an indefinite hiatus for months now, we’ve had a brief discussion about this a few pages back. Daima is going to be the main focus for the foreseeable future. Although I personally believe that with DBS they hit writers block & don’t know where to go next*. They’re always writing themselves into a corner, even when Toriyama was still alive.
* even though we all know exactly where they’ll go. As always, Goku must unlock a form higher than Ultra Instinct to defeat Black Frieza. Insert some filler training sessions between Vegeta Gohan & Broly with Whis & Beerus watching. They’ll add some details here n there, but that’s essentially exactly what will happen.
