Since we are talking about SS4 Goku, and other "unconfirmed" Figuarts...I got a great, but silly idea... Attachment DeletedI'm sure you all remember that scene... Now, imagine remaking it with SS4 Goku. The thought just amuses me... Attachment Deleted |

Well considering the fact that they teased ultimate gohan and now we are going to eventually get him, I wouldn't think any of the prototypes wouldn't get released. There is also quite a following for SSJ4 Goku so I see that as a grenade they are saving for when they know they need a homerun sale. I don't know if I need them to make different era DBZ figuarts lines, but it would be nice if they were to mix in some more Namek era ones.
I get the feeling that Tamashii wants to release the Namek stuff and is maybe waiting for the right time to bring up that era. With the sdcc being a Namek goku, maybe this might be the intro to Namek stuff in 2016 after the movie figs come out? Im sure that is wishful thinking, but that would be cool. I feel like tamashii is big on doing things in waves.

Coot Well they definitely want to release all of the movie figures in a batch, which is timed specifically to be slightly after it comes out in theaters in the US, and most likely is close to the home release in Japan. That way both markets will be familiar with the movie and have it mostly fresh in their minds when the figures hit. I'm assuming the home release will come out sometime in the late fall/early winter in Japan, but it's not that much of a stretch. |

When do you guys think that we might see Premium Color Ver. SSJ Vegeta and SSJ Trunks come available for preorder on Amazon? I know there are some third party sellers who have are selling them, but they are very expensive. I would much rather wait for them to be directly sold by Amazon, but everytime I look to see if they are available yet, their not.  |

Amazon will very likely sell them at retail, or just below retail, so I wouldn't count on them to be cheaper, unless it's shipping that is killing you. |

I've got my fingers crossed for a Freezer final form re-release, but also some other forms. To be honest, all the figures they have dropped have been main characters, with the exception of perhaps Androids 16 and 17.......so I imagine it'll be unlikely we'll see many more "side" characters. |

I feel like tamashii is big on doing things in waves. Coot Judging by how it's going, they actually are delving right into the Namek Saga. They've already got Namek Goku and Awakened Goku as front runners. I wouldn't be surprised if we see First Form Frieza soon and maybe Captain Ginyu soon. I would love both Namek Vegeta's too. First one would be easy to make since they just have to remove the flaps from Scouter Vegeta and sand down a bit of plastic. The second Vegeta would have to require some re-sculpting but nothing too crazy. They're pretty much done with major BoG/RoF stuff except maybe Whis and God Goku. They have no other choice but to go back to the older stuff  |

Final Form Freiza is pretty much anime accurate, so I'm not totally sure how they would change it to do a "Premium" recolor. I'm not saying that I wouldn't totally be down with a re-release, I paid my $100+ for him already, so if it just makes it go down in price, I couldn't care less. I have it. I would likely buy a second as well because I'm dumb like that. However I don't know what they could really tweak to make it work as a re-issue while sidestepping the BS exclusive clause like they did with Vegeta/Trunks.

I need a Namek Goku (Well 2) so I can do a Ginyu Goku to go with a Captain Ginyu if they made it! Or hell, a Goku head that comes with Ginyu! SWOON! I would totally be down with Whis and God Goku being released still though, that would pretty much "Finish" the movie releases. |

I preordered mine there, the shipping is a lil expensive, but I think Its the easies way to get the TWS Items directly from Japan Just out of curiosity, how much is the shipping on there? If you live the U.S., I wouldn't recommend Nippon soley cuz of shipping. They tend to be on the higher end. They have a shipping calculator and a currency convertor as well so you can base your decision on that. If you don't mind getting stuff a month later, I'd go with Anime Island, MH Toy Shop, ToyzintheBox, or EKnightMedia. They're all really good and two of the four offer free shipping within the U.S. and is just plain cheaper overall. Well considering we are getting Super Saiyain Awakened Goku as well in November, then I imagine it is likely more Namek stuff is to come......

I would totally be down with Whis and God Goku being released still though, that would pretty much "Finish" the movie releases. Completely agree on Frieza. He's as accurate as can be so I honestly see no way they could re-color him enough to warrant a Premium edition. Trunks and Vegeta were done simply because of their insane demand so they figured out a loophole. I wouldn't hold my breath for any other older figures getting the same treatment except maybe for SSJ3 since people are very vocal about his paint job. |

Anime-Island gives you a option to pay a deposit for it if I recall, and BBTS does not require you to pay up front I believe. I barely use BBTS and mostly avoid them due to crappy practices as a "Web Store" yet also a scalping store when it comes to exclusives, which I find beyond frustrating. |

the shipment, even if it is a lil expensive, its still cheaper from nippon yasan than from anime island, BBTS and those online stores, its almost the double
