Goten will require a whole new mold. Unlike Gohan, he has smaller body, blue undershirt, belt and non-piccolo-like shoes. Despite being too tall, people would still buy it with a Goten head regardless, because we are addicted to SHF DBZ & they know it. They can release anything at this point. Premium Color Vegeta isn't necessarily "accurate," but we are still eating it up. SSG Vegeta lacks the detail in his hair. Do most of us care? Yes. Are we still going to buy it? Absolutely. I'm not saying they actually would or should do that with Goten, i'm just making a point. Sure they can fix certain features & details with specific characters, but they don't really have to because we've proven them otherwise I bet at Tamashii HQ convos go like, "Hey guys you think it's time we update the Vegeta mold?" "Uh, we can, but why spend more cash on new materials when they've been buying the same Goku for years. Gotta milk the mold for as long as we can, remember we're a business not a charity." Actually it is very accurate, much more accurate than the older one. The blue is more accurate and so is the boots, even without the black stripes that people nitpick about alot. The only complain I really hear people have about him is the head part of the figure not being as good as the old one due to no shading on the hair and.... Pale face?

The new vegeta and trunks have the same colour as one of my favourite old school dbz wall scrolls. Extremely accurate.

Actually the OG Vegeta is accurate as he represents Android Saga. He only started wearing tips with stripes right before entering the HTC. PC Vegeta is colored after BoG Vegeta (except without the lines of course)

Us fans love attention to detail, so we notice the little stuff. Especially for a company that's built their reputation on attention to detail . So PCV is going to fall short of being "100% accurate" no matter what, but to be fair really none of their releases thus far have been "100% accurate," because there's no such thing as a flawless figure. 99% is the most we can hope for.

I was also personally not a fan of the not needed white shading, they could have done the goku SDCC with maybe a slight orange spray on yellow, similar to the awakening goku actually. Also why did they add some shading to the blue jumpsuit?

Personally I think it's just a stylistic choice they do, which is why most of the gi's of the characters are different shades n such. I think it's to make each release more "unique" from one another, as opposed to having them all the same color.

Buy the figures you want to buy as a collector, not as a ''damn I need to catch up with all these figures!'' Considering you really just asked wether you should buy a frieza or a cell, I don't actually think you want any of them. If you do want one of them, buy it but be honest to yourself. If a premium cell is coming up, I don't think you need to buy the old cell.

If a premium cell is coming up, I don't think you need to buy the old cell. Well the way I think is that I only get the figures I like, I am even thinking of skipping pc Vegeta because I dont like the outfit too much. Anyways I want both Frieza and Cell to be honest, but I cant decide on which one to get first. After getting the first one I get I have to wait months to save up for the other one. I kind of want to go with frieza because if for some reason I cant get Cell I will have many accesories and my favorite villain. And I wanted Cell because I just got Super Saiyan Gohan And I want to recreate the battle because to me it falls under the top 3 fights in dbz for me. Since I want Frieza more I guess I will get that one, I was just in hesitation because Cell might skyrocket higher over the months that will take me to save up for Cell. I am sorry for the others here that are hoping for a pc treatment but I cross my fingers that Frieza is not rereleased once I buy him *pays 200 for frieza me: yuppie tamashii nations: due to high demand Frieza and Cell are coming back in the line. me: FU** YOU

What character you like more out of the two? Do you have figures to display it with? Who can you find for a cheaper price? Answer these questions to yourself, you'll see you'll find out the answer.

I like both of them the same I have figures to display them both with and Frieza is only $5 cheaper. I just wanted to see what you guys thought would be more convenient for me, I wanted to ask for advice first regarding prices and skyrocketing prices. I think I will go with Frieza, he killed krillin and Cell didnt . I would buy Datong Frieza but having a fake doesnt feel good to me. Plus, he comes with a rock, I know its just a rock but its a beautyfull rock and awakening goku and frieza will be my main display. But then again I could have gohan and Cell. !!!!MOTHAFATHA!!!!!! Im so indecisive. I just hope that in 4 months Cell is still below the $240 mark.

The rumor also holds water too since it was the same rumor that said we would get a new sculpt of Trunks and Vegeta (and we did).

I was actually in the same situation once a long time ago, like a year or so ago. I ended up buying both, but I am positive that the price has gone up ALOT since then. I Agree with prodigy1367, for now I think you should get the frieza since a premium color cell might come out. It is more likely than a ''premium color'' frieza, he is already perfect as it is.

I got two Brolys the day they were released and I sold the one I kept in mint condition. I got jipped, too. The highest bid was like $95. Lucky bastard got a good deal. If I were on these forums more often I gladly would have sold him for $100 to any of you guys. You guys are cool as hell so I would have given a discount.
Sucks... sorry guys. I'm not too pleased with Broly to be honest because I feel like his hair needs to be WAY more green.
Now on a different note... WHERE THE HELL IS SUPER BUU!?! Man, they really pissed me off with that one. My Vegetto is literally doing nothing on my shelf byt standing there with his arms crossed!!! FUUUU! I need Super Buu! He needs to be shooting Buu through the chest with his finger beam thing. "Oooh, lets release both of the fighters that faced Buu, but not Buu himself! LOL!!" The f***, Tamashii? I'm actually pretty upset over this - Champa, Vadmos, GT Goku, Angel Goku??? REALLY!?... What the HELL, guys! We SERIOUSLY needed both that Majin Buu and that Nappa from a few years ago!
