S.H.FiguArts Dragonball Z figures!!!

[DarthBakura]

Well, re-releases are always welcome. Not at the cost of exploring new characters or new versions of characters though.

If anybody is still looking for Frieza

Man....Gotenks doesn't look so good. That head-sculpt is kind of sub-par...and sculpting usually isn't an issue for Tamashii. It looks like they had someone else do it rather than their usual sculptors. Hopefully it's improved before the final product.

What you see in the final promo pic, is we'll get.

Well I’ll be damned. Just got an email from Amazon that my Goku Black order will arrive June 1st.

Congrats! This gives me hope that my Majin Vegeta will ship from them.

So is the SH figuarts TMNT line over? Did it bombed? Just wondering.

From what I hear it might be on hold but I predict it will probably be shelved for good. Last I heard was that Shredder was put on hold for now to see how well the line does, but I can't imagine the sales were very strong in the first place.

In my opinion, it was a mistake for them to use the 1980s cartoon designs. I know it apparently was the top pick for the poll they apparently did, but alas, look how that turned out. Nobody bought them & now the line is either in jeopardy or canceled.

Perhaps they would’ve been better off basing them on the movie designs instead (the classic movies, not the recent ones). I know I would’ve bought these in SHF form in a heartbeat

They said they were considering making them down the line, but there isn't much of a line if you make the movie figures. The cartoon offers more alternate versions and a lot of villains to choose from in order to have a long lasting line. Also, I'm sure they thought the demographic buying these figures are the people who grew up with the cartoon.

Hello! I've just joined this site and forum. I've been following for a few months for the goku black drama, and just wanted to say thanks to everyone for providing updates on shipping status and general info on new figuarts. This seems like a tight community and I'm happy to join. Just wondering-- where's the best place for figuarts news? Thanks everyone.

I guess you’re right. Maybe it was the high price tag that turned people off? Every time I went to Barnes & Noble I would always see them at around $65. I could just picture kids running up to the display & falling in love with it, but their parents saying “hell no I ain’t paying that. Toys R Us got cheaper ones instead”

Maybe they shoulda just focused on the TMNT brand as a whole, instead of just a specific era. But I don’t know if there were any licensing issues that prevented them from doing that (there usually is, tho)

Yeah, Playmates has the master license, so other companies can't make figures that cost the same or sell them at retail stores. That's why Neca can only sell their 6'' figures as a set and as a SDCC exclusive. Playmates sucks.

I finally finished the Dragon Stars Zamasu BAF, so I decided to redo my display! The middle display is pretty much the same, I just swapped Vegetto for Super Saiyan Goku. But I decided to try and set up Shenron again and it was less frustrsting this time haha, and I really wanted to make a Super shelf now that I have both Zamasu's and Goku Black. Now I have to figure where to put Yamcha and Majin Vegeta when I get them hahah

Great collection and display!

After years, Android 16 is finally selling out. Wonder if they will ever make an Android 21.

 

[DarthBakura]

The TMNT line wasn’t successful because of the price, true... but deep down, I think collectors really only want the 1990 movie turtles. Neca is foolish not to try and retool and produce 1/10th scale versions of their movie figures. I’d buy them in a heartbeat. As an adult, I’m far more fond of the first two films than anything else.

Welcome!

There's quite a few members on this forum that post to keep everybody up to date with the newest information. So far we're waiting for Tamashii to make a webpage for Gotenks so we can determine all of the accessories.

Also waiting on photos of Figuarts Zero Broly!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask them and one of us would be more than happy to help you out!

Why wasn't there a DBZ display at tamashiicon 2018 btw?

Seems like they wanted to focus more on Marvel, Star Wars and DC....the Western licenses.

 

[prodigy1367]

Yeah I was there on Friday and it was only Marvel, DC, and Star Wars stuff on display. There was some small anime display there too but I’m not familiar with it

Thanks, I appreciate it! I'm pretty happy with my current display, can't wait to add some of the newer figures to it
