S.H. FiguArts Discussion

Post by MandaSaurus »

We have threads for SHMA & UA, but not for Tamashii's SH FiguArts! I KNOW it's 'not Toho', but neither is Pacific Rim, & neither is Ultra-Act( yeah, I know about the Tsuburaya thing ), & various others. It's Tamashii, it's Japanese, & by golly, I think it deserves a thread. Even if you wanna talk about Mario Bros.( ick! ). So, 'belly up to the bar' & let's talk FiguArts! I will be paying a LOT of attention to the DBZ, myself...

Unless there's some kind of Toho Figuarts coming out, we have a thread for this already.

Up to the Mods if they wanna keep it or shut it down...

It'll most likely be merged.

Pacific Rim and Ultraman are exceptions because both are kaiju franchises and have a very large line of figures to choose from. Lumping them all in the Toy thread would be a mistake as the majority of the posts would be about those two lines specifically.

Android 16 is coming to DBZ FiguArts next year! Three different heads, & you can remove his forearms, exposing those energy cannons underneath, that he pounded Cell with.

Still not sure why this isn't locked or merged, but okay.

Those are all web exclusive, so saying out of print (I still don't get how you print these, but okay) is moot. The minute they're released in Japan the aftermarket sets in, and prices rise in Japan. In the US, as long as Bluefin has stock, you're good to go. Give it some time, then the aftermarket prices rise.

OOP can also mean Out Of Production.

On Amazon, they're all above MSRP and sold by third-party sellers.

Android 16 is Bandai Collector Shop too, & I pre-ordered him, for $50 & change. This will be my FIRST DBZ FiguArts. I'm not gonna try & play catch-up, there's too many - I will simply go after the ones I am most interested in. For those of you up on your DBZ, you know what a cool character Android 16 was...

It's Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball GT, and Dragon Ball Z, not just DBZ. Android 16 looks the coolest out of the androids Tamashii's done.

I haven't heard of DB until my cuz came and introduced me to it. I still prefer Mario, DC, and Marvel.

How would people like FiguArts Bowser, Peach, Daisy, Toad, Yoshi, Cooler( All forms), Frieza's other forms, and Buu( All forms, especially Super)?

I'm not a Kamen Rider fan, but I must admit that I like that ZO suit. Very insectoid.

To me, the ZO suit looks like the first one. Coming from a non Kamen Rider fan.
