Tamashii Nation REALLY messed up this Vegeta

Ive seen so many import reviews. You are the first that I've seen that has actually translated everything on the back of the box. I thought that was so cool of you to do. 😎

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Oh thank you so much!

[@moescatobotcollects]

Learning so much from your reviews Jon and your overall score you go into so much detail on why you don’t like or like something like the flatness on this guys neck thingy. Also how the hands should touch and you jut can’t get it because it won’t allow you. It looks like a fun figure but also overwhelming at the same time.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Thank you! I never mess with these before recording so it’s all learning as I record, but that usually means a lot of stuff to cut out. But I get to capture some real moments

[@Kay_The_Coffee_Weirdo]

The only DBZ figure that has successfully pulled off the frosted tip effect is the Medicos Goku.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

It’s like early 2000 or late 90s lol

[@minivancoupe]

Great review man! I would reccomend looking into the SH Figuarts dragon ball line. Its their most popular & biggest line. They release 1-2 new figures every month and have alot coming in 2023. Be careful and try not to get into the rabbithole of collecting :-)

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Haha, yeah it’s a dangerous hole to go down. I have seen this brand in Target and they just don’t do it for me. I like the detail of this one, but it’s just missing the mark a bit

[@minivancoupe]

@@NostalgiaUnboxed Must of been the budget goku's and goku black that were spotted. Take a look at the Cooler, Awakening Goku & new Trunks. Looks amazing!

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

@@minivancoupe I will! Thank you

[@moescatobotcollects]

Morning routine brother here we go it’s like I’m waking up right next to you!😘

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Hahaha. One can dream

[@johnhein7356]

Figuarts has a vegeta for preorder right now. You should get it. They run a little small but they’re lots of fun.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

I should definitely check it out. Thank you

[@xzyphrz44565]

my favorite line of Dragon ball figs is, S.H. Figuarts, i think they are a solid 8/10 only problem is they rarely come with effects

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Effects make a big difference! I preordered the most recent Vegeta. We shall see!

[@Jarrete320mm]

Hi, new fan here. Can you recommend good stands for 5.5 and 7 inch figures. I want to do some flying poses and need a solid product.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

I use Obitsu stands and they work great! Can be ordered on Amazon

[@Jetblast01]

I've NEVER seen an inverted butt...now I know what one looks like. Didn't know I needed to see it.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

You’re welcome!! Now go tell the world! lol

[@pietrospedale3377]

I got frustated looking at you getting frustrated 😂

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Hahaha. That’s some empath stuff right there. I’m sorry

[@DustinMaster33]

Is this the same room you record in nowadays? My, has it changed! Love the turtles fighting off face huggers. :D

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

It’s the very same spot and angle haha

[@jarosbodytko6462]

I think you can’t really go wrong with the SH Figuarts Dragon Ball/Dragonball Z figures. Pretty much the best out there. On the cheaper side there’s the Dragon Stars line but I don’t own any of those so I have no clue if they’re any good.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Whatever I’m seeing in Walmart and Target hasn’t convinced me yet. Maybe I’m seeing the wrong line?

[@jarosbodytko6462]

@@NostalgiaUnboxed I do know that many of the characters in the shf line are getting a re-release with completely updated and improved articulation. I only had 3 figures (adult Goku, kid Goku and first appearance Bulma) and they were gorgeous both in terms of looks and articulation. Sadly, I sold them off because I wasn’t going further in the line and there are other fandoms that I appreciate more, but those are probably the only figures I still regret having sold, especially Bulma. That one was a work of art.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

@@jarosbodytko6462 very interesting! That’s one of those lines that becomes dangerous because they never end haha

[@jarosbodytko6462]

@@NostalgiaUnboxed yeah, Dragonball, Dragonball Z, GT, Super, the list goes on. Especially since Superthey keep releasing Goku and Vegeta with new hair colors, it’s like a My Little Pony mash-up, it’s ridiculous. My favourite show was plain old Dragonball so I wanted to focus on that line, but the scaling there is not great (kid Goku and Krilin are way to big to fit in with the other characters, even if they are fantastic figures). The DBZ line is much better scaling wise. But yeah, with an insane amount of characters it’s a rabbit hole you can get lost in.

[@hexisabeast]

I actually liked this figure , i guess after getting the first release Goku it seemed amazing...u would hate the Goku .. on the bright side it's one of the first time k get to complete an entire line of figures ( since it's just Goku and Vegeta )....but if u want some good dbz figures hop into the s.h Figuarts dbz line

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Yeah, I have heard good things about their stuff. I just need to find the good ones, because I hate what I see at Target. I did preorder the new Vegeta though. And you’re right, he is superior to that Goku with his corduroy outfit and wild joints

[@hexisabeast]

@@NostalgiaUnboxed if u wanna start with figuarts DBz, i would recommend Saiyan raised on earth goku, and krillen earths strongest man to see how you like them... maybe even the gohan from the super hero movie

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

@@hexisabeast I’ll check it out!

[@KootenaiKing]

Vegeta is awesome. Vegeta, Broly, and Super Saiyan 2 Gohan are my favorite fighters. Aside from Super Saiyan 3 Goku and Gotenks. I have a Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta and a Super Saiyan Rose Goku Black statue.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Oh that’s awesome! What brand? And that’s a solid top three!

[@kalobhunt9001]

Well you nailed vegeta is the best he is my favorite character. I collect sh figuarts DBZ. Man I wish these where better then what they are cause damn they could be so cool I hear the goku is worse than this one but if I ever see them for sale I’ll buy them.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Discounted price is the only way to get it. He is so close to being good! I haven’t been sold on SHF yet

[@kalobhunt9001]

@@NostalgiaUnboxed man they have been redoing there older figures and they are doing so damn good man and I’m not just saying that. Yeah he looks awesome they need to redo goku and him and tweak the stuff that’s wrong.

[@woonkeonglim7692]

I seriously do not understand your frustration. This is one of the best posable vegeta figure up till 2023. The price you got was a steal. Those who have S.H. Figuarts will know, they never come with normal and saiyan headsculpts in one box. Not to mention the free stands and swappable eyeballs. Suggest viewers check other reviews of this figure for a fairer review. Check out Justin's Collection for a start.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Well, we all have our own opinions on things, don’t we? Not sure this whole comment of yours is necessary. I’m glad you enjoy the figure though!

[@EpykkDyzastur]

@@NostalgiaUnboxed back when it was "Dragon Ball Z" and not "Dragonball Z Kai".

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

@@KootenaiKing haha, yeah, but I can’t hate on anyone wanting to watch without filler episodes. The worst! Coming home from school to finally see the fight between Goku and Frieza … just to see some Earth based crap. Haha

[@popculturehero]

With this many optional parts and disassembly of the head it's practically a model kit. Personally I'm kind of getting burnt out on figures that come with all these bits. But I can see why they exist for photography and changing displays.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Yeah, it can be a bit much sometimes. Two heads would be good, but accessories should be based around their ability. Like Marvel Legends Cyclops not coming with his optic blast. It’s crazy

[@rohantherevolution]

probably scales best with storm collectibles, or mcfarlane

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

bummer

[@testme4106]

Becareful with these. they are made of silicone. And Goku already for some of my freinds has damage... So it is just like a hot toy in a way. But it will brake if your not careful. I was thinking about it. But then when that happened. I kept to just shf. I hope your stuff will last a bit better. But it comes down to qc sadly. And for 100 dollars that was... a punch to the gut from Bandai.

[@NostalgiaUnboxed]

Yeah, I’m not satisfied and that definitely makes it worse. Gonna just have to avoid DBZ stuff unless I get statues I guess.

[@testme4106]

Yeah Gokus even worse... lol These are not good... lol.

[@testme4106]

Well... it looks like youtube took away my link. Shf vegeta and Trunks are up for preorder. They pose great and look great! Why have a statue that doesn't move when you can have way more fun with shf! Its on BBTS you wont regret it dude!
