Why some people says "we will never get Jiren or UI GOku" ? lol Tamahsii showed on instagram a preview of Jiren twice. we will get them in the future for sure. But i'm really curious to know why people want these figures so much. I mean I really prefer to get more Iconic Characters from the original manga (Bulma, Piccolo Daimao som DB characters, Ginyu tokusentai, androids, ) than a 15th goku and a "bad guy" we saw recently in the anime. btw this december, its not the 10th anniversary of the first figure Piccolo ? can we expect a 2.0 Ultra Instinct was a VERY popular transformation. Arguably much more popular than Blue/SSGSS (I personally still don't care for this transformation to this day). Plus, it's Goku... As oversaturated as the market is with figures of him, he is still the main and most popular character overall so any transformation he has will instantly be wanted by the majority of collectors. Goku makes money. Plain and simple. As boring as Jiren was at times, he was still a badass and the first foe that Goku and Vegeta faced that was stronger than a God of Destruction. I think my reasoning for wanting him so badly is because WHEN they do release a UI Goku, I will want a Jiren to display with him. They kind of go hand in hand. The hype for those figures would have been MUCH higher had they released them shortly after the TOP arc was finished but I completely understand why people want them.

I have mixed feelings about it. I do love all the concept of the UI state, the seriousness that it gives to the character (Goku was just like a kid in all of Dragon Ball Super, except when he transformed into UI. It made me remember of when Goku first transformed into SS1 and SS4). I like better the Omen colors than the UI, so I wouldn't mind having separate releases (as much as I hate tons of the same character, I like when they do it for Goku).
On the other hand, I don't like Jiren that much. Nothing against him, but I'm not hyped for him.

From what I can tell, yes, it's actually a reliable store despite the clearly misleading name. I've made a couple of orders from there, though they were preorders so they haven't come in yet. Although, I think my Broly that arrived last week was from there. (I'm unsure because I also bought a Broly from another store, I forgot to check the package to see which one it was from.)

Canon outfit Bulma!! This is a good day!
But, they STILL couldn't give her an angry face. Hate to be the never-satisfied fan, but yelling at people is an important part of her character...

th3madcow Yes I know UI is really popular (and as you said, i also prefer UI than SSG/SSGSS) and yes its goku, its the main character and of course i want this figure too. but i prefer to see a release of SSJ4 (even if DBGT was not so good, its for me better than Super and i grew up with DB DBZ DBGT so its more "iconic" for me) or a SSJ2, or SSJ3 kid or Oozaru. But Jiren Okay he is super strong (maybe the strongest character we saw with Broly except the Daishinkan and angels) but thats it, he doesnt have iconic moment in the anime. I don't like GOku black as well but i understand the "hype" because he has a cool design (sorry but jiren is not) cool technics and he had a character developpment. Jiren doesnt have that, he is just super strong, thats it. Piccolo Daimao, Ginyu or even Dabra or Baby are (for me) are more important than Jiren, so I don't really understand why this character is so popular. (maybe some people discover Dragon Ball with DBS so thats why) But ok i understand now for some people they just want Jiren to pose it with UI Goku

I'm pretty sure you gotta be at the event? Unless you're gonna buy them secondhand, where I guess you could preorder on ebay, but that's not the most reliable thing. But that's what makes it an event exclusive

I feel like we would get something incredibly disappointing like copy vegeta before we get any other forms of frieza or cell. Let's hope 2020 is the year that fills in the holes in the sagas.

But that's what makes it an event exclusive Yeah I sor of guessed but I don't trust preorders from Ebay and i'm bot going to pay ridiculous prices for a nor even guaranteed pre orders. Still the only reason is because i'm going onn the last day of NYCC and i'm worried that some of the characters are going to be sold out (Most particuarlly Goku Black)

I don't think we will get 2nd form Frieza and 3rd form Frieza but I still would be welcome to get them.
