5:05 these are the Namek versions of these characters. But SROE doesn’t stand with this more current run… they’re getting more stylized and saga specific and that Goku is too basic.

Honestly, I thought you would go harder on this vegeta. I would say it’s a 6/10. It’s not bad but i think the new faceplates, the headsculpt, and overall aesthetic really help it. But the articulation is just lacking which is just frustrating because they’ve done better articulation on other figures in the DBZ line. (LSS Goku, Mecha Frieza, BFTF Trunks, Krillin, and Super saiyan gohan) like they know and can do it I just don’t know why the choose to do vegeta dirty. Especially with an iconic look such as this one. I don’t mind the shoulder pads or the shoulder articulation. I think that’s the best part of the figure. Otherwise it is lacking. In accessories and articulation especially. But it looks good ngl.

Is it too hard to copy the shoulders from the armored Broly to these guys? It seems they are making more of the characters that have the shoulder pads and messing it up.
@PedroARCruzАй бұрын
The main reason why it worked there and not here is cause Broly shoulder pads sat above the shoulders all the way through, but these older armors the shoulder pad comes down and connects to the chest in a gradual curve and obviously can’t make the chest stretch to connect to the shoulder pads so that gap is there, fully swappable chest pieces plus pre posed shoulder pads would be the way to fix these without any other major compromise (like cutting a butterfly into the armor or something)

This might be my most disappointing release of the year so far. Agreed on the silhouette and the faces. I love that they're doing these stylized, exaggerated, portraits that better match the source material. I hate how he moves though and the shoulder pads suck. I was able to get the crossed-arms piece to work with the pads down. It's annoying and takes patience that even their photographer didn't appear to possess since he has huge gaps in the back of the box. My other issue with the shoulder pads is that mine have small gaps even in a neutral position and it drives me crazy. At least the old, crappy, hinge had a flush fit. And that diaphragm joint is crap. Combine that with the neck and this is a SHF release that I just want to pose in pretty bland, neutral, poses when that's not how I typically interact with this line.

They decided to reuse the Super Vegeta shoulders and arms even tho the rest of the body is mostly new so it ends up clashing, Vegeta was short and stocky but he wasn’t this wide especially with the cylinder chest they gave him here but the main issue is easily the arms, too long for the body and too defined for the aesthetic.

They have to buy pb releases like anyone else. That means at least 75 per figure. They've never sold any pb release for more than double. If you don't like the price, don't buy it. There's nothing wrong with them selling for a profit... Like a business. It's an open pre-order for all standard pb releases. There's nothing nefarious going on.
@GunFeverrАй бұрын
My perspective on this is a bit skewed from being into Gunpla, before P-Bandai US started their PB kits would get resold by third parties for high markups and even now it still happens when they sell out immediately, there’s not much in the way of preventing resellers from buying up preorder stock until it runs out. I realize a lot of this comes down to PB being an awful store. I agree saying they’d sell em for more than double was a mistake on my part, comparing 5 of their PB DB figures the price difference ranges from 49% up to 59% but mostly around 50%.

It reminds me a bunch of the shf imperfect cell, with the look being prioritized at the cost of torso articulation, and the swaps needed to tweak the mostly good proportioning. also regarding the crossed arms, depends on where you put them. ive lowered them just slightly from how you displayed em and the shoulder pads have no gaps. If anything, both the promo art and you have them too high from the pose referenced in the manga.
@kingdomcomesuperman3669Ай бұрын
I prefer it when the background matches the figure especiall for ones like the Ginyu Force where it synergises with their smoke colours. For hair colour especially black I like a matte finish. I was sold on this guy from faces alone even though I expected minimal retooling from the 2.0. release. Considering the did it for the body giving him the Namek-era curved traps I wish they followed suit with the Shoulders making them more sreamlined like the 1st 2 scouter releases instead of the unfitting bulbous Super Vegeta design, getting in the way of the shoulder pads too. Articulation in general for me lowers this figure to a 6, harsh but I'll still get it for updated faces and aesthetics being good. I'll pass on the old battle suit as that has many of the same issues ontop of the faces outside the crying one not being as good.

Tldr:Figure is bad. His shoulders are too big and so is his chest. He is the most disproportionate vegeta ever. He has the Ginyu force body armor shape and it’s bad. The arms are also super vegetas which obviously doesn’t work here. Legs being smaller is good though and obviously the head sculpt is the best part. Edit:And the Ball Hinge neck is back? 5 out of ten man this thing is so mid. This is a repeat of the Legendary Super Saiyan Goku figure all over again. Hyped up to be perfect and it wasn’t, except at least that thing was still amazing just didn’t live up to the hype. This is just reused pieces with a new head sculpt. Neck is also terrible. Painfully bad figure. The legs are also terrible. Figure is bad.
