I still say Nappa is fine at the size he is, especially if you look closely enough and compare between Vegeta, Goku and Broly.
Repost of my post a couple pages back.

The Great Saiyaman You really do like pointlessly arguing don't you? brown Yeah I agree drop that crappy Vegetto proto and give us Nappa for early 2015. - Gonsted don't rewrite the way I said something with your edits, what the hell.

M5, you sometimes think people are arguing with you, when they are only explaining something. I don't know if it is a language barrier or what it is, but you usually think the same thing about most things I say. :/ Great Saiyaman is only explaining why he said what he said. He isn't arguing.

Every character so far seems to have been well demanded, especially by me and I'm new. Even to the point where it wasn't supplied quite enough. DATONG Vegeta has 100+ units sold on eBay. Tamashii could have re-released the figure and made more profit to help support future characters.

I'll third that notion of buying anything they release. The SHF line is perhaps the best release of articulated DB action figures that has ever come out.
Yes, Irwin and Jakks were there for a time and are very nostalgic but compared to the engineering and design of the SHF line, SHF's beat them easily, especially with regards to articulation.
Bandai tried (and failed) with the Hybrid figures but they were too small and fragile. They tried again with the Ultimate Figure series and while that was a respectable line of figures, the SBC approach of attaching the shirts felt like a step backwards. I may have gotten these two mixed up with when they were released but you get the point.
With the SHF line, it truly feels they have finally found their footing with regards to articulated DB action figures and I will continue to support the line as best and for as long as I can.

Don't forget the quality of molding. Even if the Jakks and Irwin were statues I wouldn't buy them. In most cases they just have ugly looking sculpts, especially the faces. Now not every SHF face is perfect but it's soo much better.

^But don't forget the resources that are available now. Of course their sculpts are going to be better 12 years later. For what Irwin had and was, it was pretty damn good, but with time, better things come along, like the SHF line. I'd still prefer an Irwin-based line though, just because it would be affordable. $10 a figure, rather than $60, and I could get 20 figures a year, as opposed to 3...and of course because my collection is in their scale.

Well, it's important to point out that Irwin figures were $6 when new and Jakks were usually $8 when new, not $38 to $42 when new, so of course Figuarts figures should be a lot better.
I still want an affordable line of 5 inch scale figures made that fills in characters missing from my collection. At this point, I imagine it's a dream, because the characters I'm missing are ones so minor that they would probably never be made. 5 inch scale movie villains and DB (not DBZ) characters would still help me fill out my collection though.

I literally discovered this line right after SSJ Vegeta was released. It sucks. I mean who doesn't want the iconic SSJ Vegeta? I am tempted to grab the DATONG version. I mean only $30... Tempting indeed. Plus if they ever do Re-Issue the SSJ Vegeta, I could grab one of them and customize my DATONG Vegeta to be a Buu saga vegeta, or even just paint his hair black to be a normal Vegeta. OR, I could wait for the Re-Issue and pick up two that way I could have a legit one and another legit Vegeta that I could use for customization. SO MANY OPTIONS!

Can we expect a re-release of manga gohan in the near future? I believe so. They already re-released Piccolo and Super Saiyan Goku, leaving Super Saiyan Gohan out would just be lazy.
