Dayum. Form 3's head looks so good on form 2's body..makes him look even more like a xenomorph.

Turns out third form Frieza's head is compatible with the second form body. OMG thank goodness, i got an extra second form frieza laying around.

Ascat Frieza third form is supposed to be smaller, but I also think they exagerated a bit. On the other side I'm considering now to get it for my 5" collection ...
I think thats based on the recent retcon right? the original makes it seem like hes as big or bigger than second form
The recent retcon they seemed to make him smaller

Except now the 2nd form body is too buff. Third form is slightly lankier than second, coupled with the wrong shoulder pads. lol the damn spikes too, I wonder if we can switch torsos?

Disappointed in Tamashii Tour Paris. When IS NYCC? Hope for my main man there? According to the shipping site, my Frieza Second Form "Re-order" is already in the country! Hype! Later than I would have liked, but I didn't expect never to receive the other one. Which means my Third Form should be shipping any day now!

Why are you disappointed in a Pop-Up shop? Were you expecting something else?
When people get there, I'm always telling them to temper their expectations, they never ever announce anything worthwhile there (and no, the Figuarts Zero line doesn't count) So...yeah, what were you expecting?
Also, to me, 3rd Form Frieza has always been smaller than 2nd form Frieza....So seeing him bigger than 2nd form is just weird.

Just gonna say, and I totally agree with you anyway about keeping expectations low about these things, but I’m excited about the announcement of Trafalgar Law in the One Piece line. I hope they go really deep with it. I’d love to have a full set of Straw Hats. Anyway, I’m going to Japan this week! I’ll be going to Akihabara on Saturday. Aside from definitely picking up Luffy and Zoro, I think I’ll pick up at least one DB figure while I’m there. What would you all recommend? I’ve been a bit out of the loop recently on what’s good or not and what would even be available.

I can't believe that we've got all of Frieza's form from Namek in figure form (minus full power, but I think we may get that one eventually for sure). I agree that 3rd form is a bit too small in this line, but from what I remember, that huge head makes him hunched over, and his arms are longer and less buff. It "sort of" makes sense. I can kinda see what they were doing here.
My least favourite Frieza Figuarts, out of all of them? Fourth form. That one needs an appearance update. Especially since Mecha is coming next year and looks a hell of a lot more accurate than the current 4th form. First and Second are easily my favs, though. First, you can tell Toriyama was involved, it's one of the most accurate DBZ figuarts I've ever seen. And I LOVE the build and sculpt on Second. Third is good too, but yeah. I like how EVERY SINGLE depiction of that form shows him with the cut tail. I know that he had it cut in the anime and manga but I'm curious, just for kicks, what third form looks like with the whole tail.
Heck even Golden Frieza is a nicer figure than 4th form...

Could someone please take a photo of SHF Gamma 1, Gamma 2, Gohan, Piccolo, and Orange Piccolo side-by-side? Since settei (setting) artwork sheets used by animators have barely been released to the public from this movie, I can't find any official height comparisons for Gamma 1 and 2 showing how they relate to the other characters. Theoretically, Tamashii may have received these for referencing when making these characters, so I'd like to see.

The Second Form Freeza almost looks like him mid-transformation lol. Kind of annoying they didn't just retool the Second Form body into Third Form Freeza, since he's entirely out of scale here (ignoring the scale in DBS Broly.)
