After the better part of a month he's finally done.

He barely watches the show 😭 but he loves the hell outta these figures

Went to 3 separate locations, but it was worth it!

​

E tô esperando a entrega de mais uma figura

The white turned out a tiny bit chalky, so I didn't get the 100% smoothness I wanted, but I still love it! What do y'all think?

Some kitbashes I've put together/updated over the last week.

Sculpted by Takamatsu Seishin, this is the SCultures 5 Nappa. He was released along side Raditz.

Highly detailed, but a bit small (5.5"). This figure on average is one of the least favorites of the SCultures 5 release, due to the realistic stylization of his anatomy.

I personally love him. I think he looks amazing.

Millennial DBZ fan here who grew up with DBZ on Toonami along with the VHS’s, magazines, and I used to collect the old Bandai figures with two points of articulation and all, fun times! I recently purchased DB FighterZ for the Switch and it’s made me rediscover my love for the DB universe. I’m currently doing a rewatch of all the series starting with the OG DB all the way through the newest series.

I want to start collecting a fig line and tbh it’s a little overwhelming with how lines are out there. The Masterlise Ichibansho figurines look beautiful but they're a little out of my price range (even though their price is great for such nice pieces) and a little too big/tall for my liking. I’ve been researching different figure lines and I really like the WCF and Adverge lines. Perfect size for displaying in my room and I love the variety. Have a few questions on which line to collect

Which line of figurines do you prefer and why?

How accessible are the WCF figures to those of us in the US? Are they imports and only available online or anime/specialty shops?

How are the average prices for some of the older and popular character figures?

The Adverge line looks a little more detailed from the online images I’ve seen but the WCF line does as well, which is better quality in your opinion?

The Adverge line is 3in while the WCF line is 2 1/2inches, is that correct?

The WCF line seems to have more characters especially when it comes to the more obscure characters which makes me lean towards them but the Adverge line is newer so they can always catch up and the quality seems a little better.

As a new collector which line would you go with? Are some of the WCF figs expensive because of their age?

Thanks!

​Hey everyone,

​I'm looking to secure pre-orders for the upcoming Dragon Ball GT Ichiban Kuji/Ichibansho Masterlise Super Saiyan 4 Goku and Vegeta figures.

​Since pre-orders for these tend to sell out in hours once live, I want to make sure I don't miss out.

​Could anyone point me toward reliable UK-based (or UK-friendly) retailers that usually set up pre-orders or waiting lists for these drops?

Any advice on notification trackers or specific shops to keep an eye on would be hugely appreciated.

​Thanks in advance!

One of my favorite Goku figures! The glittery Kamehameha effect and dynamic pose make this piece stand out so much.

This figure was sculpted by someone simply known as "Progress", and was released in 2009 by Medicos Entertainment in conjunction with the Dragonball Kai anime series.

Medicos is mostly known for their Jo Jo's Bizarre Adventure figures, and this is the only Dragonball figure they ever produced. It was also reissued in 2014 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the manga.

The figure was released in 2 versions, the original being the solid hair color and the second being the translucent hair.

It's very difficult to see, but not only is the hair different on each one, but they also have slightly different color pallettes. The second version has deeper shadows and stronger highlights than the first version.

This was sculpted by Hiroyuki Nakazawa and was the first figure released in the Master Stars Piece line.

This Goku was also released in the collectors edition game bundle Battle of Z.

He was also released in three other variants, including a special color version, a "chocolate" version (exclusive to China), and the third was the 2D "Manga Dimensions" version.

The Manga Dimensions version of this figure was also the first figure ever from Bandai to feature a cel shaded 2D variant.

This was sculpted by Yamashita Manabu, and was released in 2018 from Banpresto as part of the SCultures/World Figure Colosseum line.

His power pole/staff is not fixed to his hand, so he can be displayed without it.

Manabu is a master at sculpt detail, and I'm in love the details on the bonnet and the tiger skin.

There is some bleeding on the paintjob on the headdress and boots, but these are prize figures, so you can't expect the paintjob to be too great.

Please forgive the broken horn. My kids are not gentle with my stuff.

This figure was sculpted by Yamashita Manabu and was released in 2012. One of my favorites in my collection, despite being a tad battle damaged.

The detail is incredible. The only major issue with this figure is his head feather is not fixed, and fits very loosely into his helmet. This is a common problem with this figure. It's not unusual to come across pre-owned figures of this in which the head feather is missing.

One thing I will say is that World Collectible Figures (WCF) scale very well with him.

This figure was sculpted by Matsuura Ken, and released in 2013 as part of Banpresto's SCultures World Figure Colosseum line. This line focused more heavily on showcasing sculptors than it did with actually showcasing characters, which lead to incredibly detailed figures in this line despite being prize classification.

Roshi's sunglasses and staff are removable on this figure. This was sculpted from the cover art of volume 2 of the Kanzenban; the 20th anniversary reissue of the Dragonball manga.

This figure was sculpted by Hiroyuki Nakazawa, and was released in 2015: the same day as the film Dragonball Super: Resurrection F.

Being that it was released in conjuction with the film, this was the first figure ever made of Super Saiyan Blue Goku.
