Man, after shipping they cost me $60 and I'm saving about 70% of my income for marriage so it's kind of a stress. But that's just my problem and not anybody else's, I just felt like sharing a little  Well, at least you're only focusing on your own income and not projecting what other people should be doing with theirs.  Edited: In regard to alternatives, Big Bad Toy Store has something called a "loot" option where if you order multiple items, you can put them on hold up to about six months, maybe more, and have them all shipped at once. It'll knock down the pain of shipping cost. Amazon Prime doesn't charge you until it's shipped, along with free shipping. Toyz in the Box has a 20% down payment if it's for a pre-order but also provides free shipping. |

done...and I think it looks a lot better than the SDCC Goku as a whole. The bright neon orange works so much better with the desaturated dark blue.  Thank you! I've been looking around for a few weeks to see if anybody set this up. Edited: Not that I don't like the figure but I feel the highlights in the hair only work when Goku is performing the Kamehameha. The shading doesn't work for anything else unless there's a bright light low in front of him. |

I know, it makes me wonder how the heck the Kamen Rider fans keep up. Isn't there one released every month or so? Anyways, not to be nitpicky about Vegito, I feel his belt should be a lighter shade of blue.  |

I hope they don't release too frequently. I only have so much money to throw at them. I figure I'll just have to sell a kidney...we have two of those, right? |

February for 16 and April for vegetto. Kinda bard to believe. That's what I was thinking because if it's true then it'll look like this... September/October = Android 17 November/December - Early January = Broly February/March = Android 16 April/May = Vegito Maybe Tamashii is releasing more frequently or there's going to be a long period of time after Vegito. |

angelo2113, I don't understand your post. Why would Raditz's head have to be removable from his hair? The removable faces work perfectly well for Vegeta and SS3 Goku. Branjita, I don't think that means the DBZ line is that popular. It just means it's popular in the United States.  I suppose if they follow this drawing they'll be able to make removable faces rather than need to make removable heads...  Even the other pictures showed there could be a seam that could be used. |

I think articulated hair more advanced than Sailor Mars' could accomplish everything hopefully. But if it can't, then some alternate pieces would be good. Anybody think it's kind of unusual that almost everything at Bluefin's NYCC display is DBZ, 3 Godzilla figures, and 4 DC comics figures? No Sailor Moon stuff or Power Rangers. Is it possible that the DBZ line is really doing THAT well? I don't know. If it was, I think we would have seen Tien and Yamcha by now. I mean, they're taking a risk with Android 16....and Tien is less risky. It's one of the biggest mysteries in Dragonball lore; the scarcity of Tien and Yamcha. I would disagree about Tien being less risky than Android 16 at the moment. If they come out with Yamcha first, then Tien would be less risky. Since Android 18 and Android 17 are released, Android 16 is highly desired to complete the trio. It's actually the one grouping Tamashii has done correctly, especially in regards to when they're released. Broly seems to determine that Tamashii is catering more to the Western Market. Don't the Japanese fans find Broly to be a joke or something? |

Raditz's hair would prove difficult for a couple of reasons. I feel he should come with separate heads rather than faces because the hair won't line up pleasantly to the eye if it were just a face like Vegeta. Maybe if the hair detaches from the head similar to a hand; with a ball and socket. Similar to how Super Saiyan 3 Goku's hair is attached. This picture represents quite a great deal of what I'm trying to explain...  It would be these different styles that would attach to both the body and the rest of the hair. I'm actually amazingly fond of this picture with the hair hanging on his shoulders, as well...  |

I believe the only difference in his armor is the addition of a vertical bar on the white portion between his shoulders on his back. However, I'm not sure that isn't just an art inconsistency. In Saiyan Saga, Goku's kamehameha blew off the bottom portion of his armor www.angelfire.com/anime4/burpbiatch/GohaninjuredVegetakicksKrillin.jpg?Edit... stupid angelfire... try this And it looked the same as what he put on when we meet Kuwi on the healing ship other than possibly that white vertical bar.   |

...Way to make me depressed and lose all hope, Branjita. Edited: I wouldn't even mind if they used the torso and arms of this figure and just sculpted in Tien's scar. All Tamashii would have to mold would be the legs, forearm bands, and head.  |
