For now i'm just interested in these figures: Trunks Long Hair Goku SS4 AC Goku SS3 AC Perfect Cell Not interested in DBS figures so i'll save a lot of money. Same here, but I like Kid Goku too. Yeah, i forgot that one! Looks great too.

Anyone else feeling that SSj4 Goku's tail should maybe have a few joints in it?

So why I think GT Goku is just pure laziness from tamashii? The fact that they repainted SSGSS Goku's gi does not make it accurate. The GT gi shows his chest while the SSGSS gi (what they've repainted) covers the chest. It might be a nitpick to a lot of people but to me it's a big factor cause that the only difference between the two, and the only thing they NEEDED to change, yet they didn't. Actually, that's one of the reasons I think that Goku was only for display. They didn't want to put effort into something that will only be in their display, so they only repainted existing stuff. The same could be said about Normal Goku and Namek Goku. Cell Saga Goku and beyond showed more chesticle action than Namek Saga Goku. The blue shirt covered up more. Tamashii however used the same exact mold for both figures though. This Goku does have a brand new belt at the very least. Actually seeing how GT Goku's gi is, he exposes more and more of his chest as time goes on Also I posted yesterday on page 316 why I think ALL of the figures will get released (except for Porunga) if you wanna take a look. This Goku is getting a release, no doubt about it. Every figure they've ever shown (even outside of DBZ) has always started with the Display Only tag. It means nothing more than that they don't have an official release date.

Actually, GT Goku doesn't even have a tag that says 'Display only' (The same goes for Porunga and SS3 Vegeta if I'm not wrong). You can see on page 310 my reasons for why GT Goku won't get released.

Yeah I saw it and while you make good points, I don't think they'd go through the trouble of creating a new belt and repainting and swapping parts just to have it for a display. They know people will buy it, so why wouldn't they sell it? Just because it doesn't have a placard doesn't really mean much. We go on and on about how Tamashii shows figures but never releases them but tbh it's only been a small handful (Nappa, Shenron, the Buu's, and Jaco). The Buu's and Jaco I still think are gonna be released since they're probably being touched up like SSJ4 was, which explains their absence. They actually DO release most of what they show.

I think everything has a reasonable chance of being released except for Porunga. I can't imagine them releasing him before Shenron.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love a GT Goku, I love GT and I love Goku's design in there, other than the minor "nitpicking" about the gi, he DOES look good. But I don't know, I just don't think they'll release him, not unless they see a REALLY HUGE demand for it. And while people do show love to this, the demand isn't THAT big.

I don't think so. It looks just like the original one.

Now that I am thinking about it GT goku is pretty unnecessary. His adult form only lasted for a few minutes in the beginning and that finale movie seemed pretty lame to be honest. Oh and Beerus up for pre order on BBTS: www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/list.aspx?list=20313

each time i see a new pic of this figure I want it more and more. I like how this trunks has lines in the boot tips, but advanced color vegeta and ssj3 vegeta there is none. :shame:

That's cuz this Trunks is head to toe brand new. The PC Vegeta couldn't be definition have any extra sculpting since it's strictly a repaint. At the very least they could've painted the lines in but they opted not to for some reason. The SSJ3 uses the same lower half as the PC Vegeta so he suffers the same fate. Hopefully for the official release of Buu Saga/Majin Vegeta, they sculpt the lines into the boot tips. I think for now that lower half is just a placeholder.

Rekon I'll double up on trunks and use a vegeta head. The new bid is too good to miss.
I'm so gutted no yamcha and tien tho. Especially as tien actually did something in the latest movie too!
At this point I'd take a zero statue over nothing.
