Collectibles Dragonball

[FSLAR]

As much as I love Dragon Ball, I am glad I am done with Figuarts. It got way too hard to keep up, the lack of reissues and I've been way too tempted by the potential extra funds I can get from this to fund other collectibles. That said, I WISH we got more FiguartsZero EX. I think they were underrated for the most part. No Gohan, Ultimate or SSJ2 (Kid) is criminal when we got Super Buu and SSJ4.

I won't lie, the recent shit (that "the other forum" loves to excuse) also pissed me off.

 

[Darth Maul]

What recent shit? You talking about the factory issues with Vietnam and certain figures breaking?

Also, they are beginning to reissue some figures. They’ve already done some of them, made premium color variations of others, and are looking at the harder to find items now. The SSJ3 Goku 2.0 is getting a reissue and pre-orders should go live any day now.

I’m fairly certain we will see a Majin Vegeta reissue, as well as both Buu figures. Although, the latter would be quite a ways off. Anything that they keep seeing comments about will inevitably lead to a reissue. Especially if it’s going for extravagant prices to boot.

The SSJ God Goku is another fans are asking about. You can always make one with the Demoniacal Fit heads, but the body and the color of the Gi is very specific. It doesn’t look right.

The P Bandai, some QC issues and such.

Got Raditz. Waaay better than Recoomer.

So are we paying BBTS for QC when they hike the price 30%? I'd rather take my chances lol

 

[Darth Maul]

You’re paying BBTS. Pbandai isn’t charging anywhere close to what BBTS charges, even after taxes and shipping.

Which is why I'm just going to pay up front for this shit from now on.

 

[FSLAR]

I was confused on that cause I don't think BBTS was that much worse with it. W/E.

I heard Prime 1 is doing a Goku and Vegeta though??

You can pay with a credit card. Won’t get charged until it ships. The only downside to PBandai is if they lose a shipment. You’re fucked for a good while, like a lot of people were/are. Should have my Gohan soon though.

BBTS is steadily becoming the new Toywiz. I get that sometimes harder to get figures might go up in price, but they’re beginning to take it to another level with some of it. It’s a love/hate relationship with them anymore. I like that they exist, but they make it hard not to roll my eyes.

This is way too common these days.

Lol funny you said this, I found a Toywiz near me today. Mine seemed....better then expected.

 

[Darth Maul]

I’ve never bought anything off of their website. It’s a site ran by scalpers, through and through. It’s like a bunch of comic shops got together and decided to open up a giant toy store.

 

[FSLAR]

The ToyWiz I visited today is...like that, and also not like that? Like I saw they had Hot Toys Avengers that were under original MSRP. Some Figuarts were marked up a bit, noticeably but not a huge deal. But figmas were over double their going rates while being incomplete or damaged.

 

[Darth Maul]

I only know of their main website. What they do in physical stores is undoubtedly different.

 

[Darth Maul]

The SROE Goku and SSJ3 Goku figures are up for pre-order on BBTS.

 

[Darth Maul]

Well, the SSJ3 Goku was up for pre-order. I guess you can try your luck with Amazon. Might even be up on AmiAmi or HLJ. Or perhaps Sideshow has it?

Also remember seeing Dorkside Toys and Entertainment Earth were supposed to have it up as well. I never like the colors eyes they gave it and was hoping they made them lighter.

 

[Snake Plissken]

If there's no difference at all with the SS3 there's no need for me to order it.

 

[Darth Maul]

I’m getting a second one just because.

 

[FSLAR]

How's the body on this one? Could be worth using him for a Cell/Buu saga Goku.

 

[Darth Maul]

You’re better off just getting the new Goku. It’s only $35 to boot.
