I'm glad to see that he comes with a Super Saiyan head. I wonder how many faces and accessories he'll have though. The price seems pretty low compared to other releases.

Love these.....hopefully a Rose version of Black follows. I was expecting Goku Black with pink hair The sculpting and casting process could have been too far when Super Saiyan Rose was revealed.

Goku Black, Hit, and Goku 2.0 are a few prototypes that I'm really looking forward to. We can guess as much as we want but it could be similar to last year where nobody expected most of those prototypes. Is there any doubt that we wouldn't be getting some of those characters? Raditz and Nappa are inevitable, Zarbon and Dodoria have a really good chance, and...well, I'd put doubt towards all members of the Ginyu Force. You really think so? I'd be really happy to see a Zarbon figure... he's one of my favourite characters from the Frieza arc. When the Frieza Saga is eventually focused on, I can easily imagine Zarbon and Dodoria being included. They would fit Tamashii Nation's "co-release" strategy that they've been using for awhile too. Tamashii Nations may see how the sales for Zarbon are before they decide on a Monster Zarbon though. (Possibly vice-versa.) The new armor articulation design is great for other armored characters like Zarbon, Dodoria, Raditz, Nappa, and Bardock. I was thinking Dodoria would be challenging with his physique but it would work if they create articulation similar to Champa's prototype.

Okay, so I failed thanks to household expenses. I believe that, in theory, one should be able to paint the normal face into Super Saiyan to give us the straight-on angry face. The same would apply to the Super Saiyan faces to give the normal head more faces. Simple, right? Wrong. You would actually need, at most, three Trunks figures. One for the normal-to-Super conversion, one for the Super-to-normal conversion, and one to compare the colors to, if necessary. For now, it's just a theory, like my SSGSS Goku theory I'm thinking of. I'm too scared to do it myself because I've never had very high grades in art classes throughout school. Edit: Um... Branjita ? This one might be in the wrong thread, but I'm not sure. Please help! One solution for normal faces could be to purchase the upcoming Xenoverse Future Trunks and another solution for Super Saiyan faces could be Dragon Ball Super Future Trunks as well. That, of course, is if Tamashii Nations makes everything compatible which I honestly don't see why they wouldn't.

11 more days! I'm hyped up for this event... who knows what we're bound to see? *desperate to keep conversation rolling* Goku Black, Hit, and Goku 2.0 are a few prototypes that I'm really looking forward to. We can guess as much as we want but it could be similar to last year where nobody expected most of those prototypes. If they can make the most obscure character ever like the "hero" character from Xenoverse. Then we should definitely be getting characters like Radditz, Nappa, Zarbon, Dodoria and the entire Ginyu Force. Is there any doubt that we wouldn't be getting some of those characters? Raditz and Nappa are inevitable, Zarbon and Dodoria have a really good chance, and...well, I'd put doubt towards all members of the Ginyu Force.

Figurerise Cell is taller, but I kinda feel like his overall mass is just too bulky to go with a Figuarts display. His feet, hands, and head just look huge. I think they might just look "off" and stick out of scale. I wonder if I should just get it, and customize it into a semi-perfect Cell? That seems like it would be pretty easy. I'm gonna have the new pce Cell, anyways. It's the ideal Perfect Cell when he bulks up to try and defeat Gohan.

It seems fine to me. I'm just surprised that Goku Black isn't a thing yet. I'm sure it would use Blueku's hair painted pink, but hey. I'm not. Goku Black isn't necessarily, or supposed to be, all that popular in the Western market the way Beerus and Whis were because of Battle of Gods and Resurrection F. It'll be interesting to see Tamashii Nations release characters that the Western market haven't seen in any region aired content.

Is it just me, or do Tien's Tri-Beam hands look like one piece? They are.

I was really surprised that the TP had practically head to toe new sculpting. The Tien looked superb, production ready imo. Yamcha looked legit too except the color of the gi. They should've gone with a darker orange but besides that he was fine. The face was good too, didn't really see too much of a problem with it. Trunks looked great and the face looked on point. I'm happy that the quality is increasing. Besides any future PC's, everything seems like it's gonna incorporate the new articulation. The days of the Goku knees are over. Torso articulation will be incorporated into every figure, no matter how big or how small. Btw, Adam said Nappa is still being worked on and it's coming 😊 And what about the SH Goku SSJ4? Any info about him? How tall is Goku SSJ4 Zero Ex compared with the rest of the line? S.H. Figuarts Super Saiyan 4 Goku still needs to be given the updated hip/crotch articulation. We may be lucky enough to see an updated product later this month. Figuarts Zero EX Super Saiyan 4 Goku is listed at 10 inches.

Gives me the reaction I expected, I like the Trunks very much but the Hero isn't doing much for me. If nothing else it's interesting to see what an updated Future Trunks might look like (not that I think it needs to be remade this early). Pretty sure I said it before but wow....Tien and Yamcha are superb. This is the last thing I should be thinking but I'm itching to see an updated Goku now, old outfit or otherwise. I don't have any issues with the old Goku mold, I just see how great an updated Goku would be with the new engineering they're using. (I'm not going into it, I swear I'm not going into it, but those newer figures with the sunburned skin tone that stand out like a sore thumb...gahhh....)I wouldn't have mind if Tamashii Nations did something similar with Future Trunks the same way they updated Super Saiyan Vegeta. You can certainly see what it would have looked like with the Time Patroller...and it would have looked awesome. A lot of pieces from the Time Patroller could be re-used for Bojack Trunks, Post-Cell Future Trunks, or even Dragon Ball Super Future Trunks. Am I the only one who isn't all that pleased with Yamcha's head/face sculpt? It's good but I think it could be a lot better. You're not alone on wanting to see an updated Goku. Even when Yamcha was revealed back at SDCC, a lot of collectors were already imagining an updated 2.0 Goku. Between the new articulation, new sculpt work, and updated quality, Goku is going to make one hell of a come back to this line.

I honestly may just get that trunks for the Trunks head alone. The sculpting is tremendous. Think he looks better than my regular Trunks! Lol, don't expect his head to look like that on the final release. The hair sculpt rarely, possibly never, loses the level of sculpting detail from prototype to final product.

You guys have no idea how happy I am that we are getting Xeno Trunks, he's honestly my favorite trunks, thank you guys so much for the photos it completely turned my day around I was very surprised on how well he and the Time Patroller turned out! Very happy to see Tamashii Nations implement the updated quality and articulation for them too. I don't know why but I'm almost interested to see what Xenoverse Trunks would look like with the ponytail head piece on.

We don't choose who Tamashii Nations releases and when. Especially certain characters over others. So there's really no point in asking that question.
