Damn it I just ordered a Cell the other week. Guess I'll have 2 now... Well you know it has been a lot of rumors about it. Premium Color SSJ3 is next.

From where is the Cell based off from? Hes of course not like this in the anime or manga? Also theres a chance that it come with more accessories? Because in that video interview before of that Tamashii rep addressing the PCs, he said that they got the message basically that less accessories was not good so more accessories is better, I forget what he said exactly but it seemed like he acknowledged the backlash the PCs got. So, if Tamashii does listen, will it come with more accessories?

Cell is really cool, but I hope the green colors are a BIT different in the ''final'' version, assuming that's just a beta. The Purple on the other hand looks so much better on this one ( I have the original).

Tamashii Nations did a good job having the new armored Trunks and Vegeta releases complement the premium color Perfect Cell and Gohan reveals.

So, if Tamashii does listen, will it come with more accessories? I highly doubt this. They may acknowledge the backlash, but they still sold. I don't know why, but I don't expect the Kamehameha effect with this Cell. I could always be wrong though so don't quote me. What I do feel however is the Effect line should fill this gap. Like they did with Saint Seiya, the should do a DBZ accessory set with Goku's Kamehameha, Piccolo's Makankōsappō, Gohans Masenko and Vegeta's Gyarikku Hou. I'm actually quite surprised we haven't seen anything like this already. Tamashii must sell a lot less DB figures then they sell Kamen Rider and Saint Seiya!

Yeah, I agree. I mean if Premium Color Cell comes out after Gohan then it's going to be late February at the earliest. By that point we should really be into the meat of DBS (another 30 episodes will have aired). I expect Tamashii will continue with their big 5 sellers (Goku, Vegeta, Trunks, Gohan and Piccolo). Premium color SSJ3 Goku is obviously still on the cards, especially if he uses it more in Super and I don't know why, but I really feel we'll be seeing a new Piccolo (Vibrant Green, with anime colors and battle damage). I'm also wondering whether we'll see a non battle damaged SSJ Goku from the Cell/Buu arc using the new articulation. That seems like a pretty obvious figure to do. That'll knock off our March, Apr, May releases. Throw in a couple DBS characters, a few re-releases and the odd month break and that'll be it for 2017. Put it this way, if we see SSJ4 Goku or Buu next year I'll be surprised. As for any other characters like Yamcha and Tien, pfff......you can wait until Super ends. Like you mentioned, Piccolo is one of the Top 5 characters in the Dragon Ball franchise. Tamashii Nations is basing these regular releases on the Top 5 characters in one of their most well-known, iconic designs. As great as the 1st release and SDCC Exclusive were, Piccolo is due for some upgrades and I can't wait to see what they come up with. It's interesting because I'm also wondering how many regular releases Tamashii Nations has planned for these characters. I wouldn't be surprised if Goku and Vegeta were to get regular release treatments from now on. Yeah, it depends how Tamashii Nations is going to go about with the line. If they're going to give each release updated articulation, they may cut back on releases per year. The consistent direction of the line will be focused on Dragon Ball Super for the foreseeable future. Damn it I just ordered a Cell the other week. Guess I'll have 2 now... You'll at least have the effect pieces that more than likely will not come with the Premium Color Perfect Cell.

Maybe battle damaged Gohan!? Tamashi already has the body (battle damage Goku). All Tamashii needs to do is add some scars on Gohans face and good to go.

The effect pieces that came with Cell were terrible anyways. As long as he has all of the original hands and faces it's all good.

I would wager Gotenks Buu and Gohan Buu before any other Buu. But those were put in the dark over the past two years. To be honest I don't really understand why Tamashii Nations is having trouble with releasing figures whose prototypes showed great potential.

To be honest I don't really understand why Tamashii Nations is having trouble with releasing figures whose prototypes showed great potential. It's very similar to SSJ4 Goku's situation. He went into hiding as well and then popped up with new articulation and updated knees a few months ago. Personally I think he'll be released very soon. I suspect the same changes are being done with the Buus

Tamashii Nation's display back in October showed us that there are still a lot of unseen prototypes that we have no idea are being worked on. It's all about their scheduling. They're in no rush to release a product when they plan for this line to continue for possibly another decade.
