S.H.FiguArts Dragonball Z figures!!!

[shonen1234]

Sorry but I highly doubt there would be any snap on anything with these figures. These are high quality, highly articulated figures. These are not the cheap, old super battle collection days, snap on would hinder the articulation of a otherwise quality figure. It would need to be a part of the mold of the figure itself like any of the vegeta's that have been released thus far.

Yay you're probably right. But hey

His was soft rubber, so it didnt impede anything

Oh no the closed one was hard plastic the open one was soft rubber.

Yeah thats what I meant. The closed one was closer to his body so it didnt get in the way. You add things that stick out (like saiyan shoulder pads for example) and you lose articulation

Idk the ultimate series did it pretty well

(Just in case any one cant tell I'm joking). But that's true D I didn't account for the shoulder pads.

The UFS did an ok job at the removable armor, but not great. Lift Vegetas arms past 45degrees and it pops off. Gokus gi is even worse, you literally cant use the arms when the gi is attached (ive got them all and just tested it)

Just saying, removable stuff is never a great idea, it just interferes too much.

Looks like ssj goku has shading. And that the took the glossy/metallic look from ssgss goku's hair. That sucks.

Oh and I know Deano

after this (my second goku from the line) I gave up on them.

Those figures are the production run now by the looks of it. The RoF figures look different and Gohans face has been changed. Great pics Orbital! Dont think i need to say anything about Goku [emoji38]

Am I missing something obvious? The arm gets replaced. I have a Scouter Vegeta on my desk next to me with crossed arms that I had to pop off his two arms to put on...

His vest is snap on

Ah the Jakks Pacific versions are notorious man. The Bandai Japan ones are higher quality plastic and paint, and come with fists

Gohan is a jakks version (with fists from another figure), the Gokus are Japan.

Oh.... I think that would've been more obvious if one picture was of him with his vest off then.

I'm sure if Tamashii really wanted to give Nappa removable armor, then they'll figure something out. Those dudes are brilliant and if there's a will, there's a way. Broly is a testament to how amazing their craftsmanship & creativity can be. Removable armor can work without the cost of articulation, it just takes more dedicated minds than ours to figure it out. They get paid to think outside the box. I hope they are at least considering this.

Um. Whatever happened to these effects? Were they canned?




They just love to show certain stuff off only once then pretend they never existed :/

If anyone could figure it out, it's Tamashii, but I HIGHLY doubt we'll ever see snap-on with Figuarts. They could've debuted something like that with Awakened Goku so we could get both of his forms, but they didn't. As for Nappa, they could just as easily release a battle damaged version of him later on. They could that with practically every figure if they wanted to! Since battle damaged Goku IS gonna sell amazingly, it may convince to do a separate battle damaged line altogether. Yeah, let's do that

Screw the effects I want that figure. Because it's a nothing figure you can do anything with it.

A LOT of people want that figure, myself included but they've said over and over again that they don't plan on releasing it. Stupid decision tbh. Take our money. Figma released there version of this figure and people bought that s*** up and continue to.

@crisis, I want that green wind effect so badly. I'd prefer a more standard color like white, blue, or yellow but I'll take the green and figure something out for it. It's weird cuz they've officially got those wave effects for pre-order yet they were shown after this one was. Hopefully, it's still planned cuz it looks sick.

@blood, exactly. Anything with a DBZ label on it sells, just ******ing make it Tamashii.

RIGHT! You'd think a toy company would want to make money. Plus they probably have a tone just sitting around plus a girl one. Plus of course figmas sold out

I'd buy the **** out of this too [emoji57]
