Hmm... did u just edit #16's legs? They look toooooo long now.
As for the original prototype, I wish he was taller, his arms should be shortened and his torso should be larger.

16's legs are a little short overall, but it's mostly just the entire figure himself that needs be be scaled a bit larger. Maybe add about a 1/4 inch to his thighs and another 1/4 to his shins, then increase the size of the entire figure by about 5-7% at least. Hard to say in terms of specifics without seeing what that would actually result in. That said...I hope Vegetto is a super early prototype. His head is just horrible. He may be the first Figuarts that I don't buy, despite wanting a Vegetto figure, based solely on how bad he looks. I seriously don't see how they could screw him up this bad when his head is basically supposed to just be Goku with less bangs and a set of earrings. |

I wish they would Adz! It drives me crazy that they don't correct these height/scale/proportion problems before they go to production or before they even get past the computer stage. i'm totally know how you feel...I just don't know how different heights and colours get messed up, surely its a simple thing to assess and determine ?!!!!... bah im gonna stop before I get all Hulk about it!!!  I know its unlikely , but i'll say it anyway - I would like to see some Tien and Yamcha proto's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

I've been thinking about looking into the Figuarts Zero line lately. What scale are they? For the most part, pretty much the same size as Figuarts, but they don't stick with a consistent scale. The Frieza coming out soon is pretty large. Thanks for the information! |

Hmm... did u just edit #16's legs? They look toooooo long now. I added length to his thighs, shins, boots, and upper arms.  His proportions are pretty unusual, which is just how the character is. What's probably throwing you off visually is that the figure isn't as wide shouldered as he should be. I didn't edit that, because... well... that's not something I did   |

I think the proportions on that resin or whatever it is are really good, so I resized it into my pic to make comparing easier. I'm surprised I came so close without using it as a comparison while Photoshopping! Not too bad. The resin has much better proportions, but what I did isn't too bad since I did it as quickly as I possibly could. Also, I only did this to fit my personal opinion of what size they should have made him... without changing the scale of the body or anything. To be accurate, he should probably be even taller, but if you go much taller than this, you start needing a bigger body, head, etc.  |

I saw most of these new pics on Bluefin's Facebook page earlier today, and this stuff is looking great!
I like Vegito, but I still think Goku's legs should have been re-done. His pants legs flare out too much above the knee, or either they should flare out more below the knee joint. It doesn't taper well imo, but I'm sure it's to keep better articulation.
16 looks amazing, and I'm not disappointed by his size. I feel like he's big enough, though slightly taller would be even better.

How much you want to bet half of those figures get stolen? They aren't under glass or anything. I'm glad I'm not a volunteer there put in charge of watching for thieves!

I hope the kid goku posted a few hours ago is not the the same as the tamashii buddies one. Why would they make a frowning kid goku while he was shown smiling like 90% of the time!?

Roshi it's his battle face ! It's was already obvious it's the same one though, you can see the World Martial Arts Tournament backgrounds in that pic. Either way, that is something I'd def like to add to my shelf, really cute piece, and they only cost like 1000 yen! |
