farmer with a shotgun would be a better exclusive I see some custom potential with this. The dark suit parts can be used to make his second Namek outfit...maybe a modified Android Saga suit...eh. I would totally buy the farmer if he came with his shotgun, truck, and some of those pink emus he raises! Oh.... who am I kidding... I'd buy it even without the truck... You're right about those legs and arms being useful for a Namek Saga Vegeta!!! Might be worth buying him just to make that and give Frieza somebody to torture!

To be honest I love this figure. It's unique and at least Tamashi thought out of the box. I was hoping for an actual exclusive (Nappa)but I understand how its really expensive for them to create a new mold just to have an exclusive for a convention that's only a few days. But I honestly prefer this to the SS Vegeta and will be getting a few of these. A lot of people are saying they won't be getting the figure but just give them time and they'll start regretting not getting one once they're sold out which I guarantee you they will. Out of the box? lol "Hey guys, lets repaint this and release it?" Like I said, they're pulling a Jakks on you Figuart collectors. It isn't right. Out of the box would be someone like Captain Ginyu, whom no one ever really mentions. First of all it is out of the box when you have to consider that it's not realistic that they'll release a brand new figure just for an exclusive. I would have never expected this paint job, and i'm extremely happy with it(considering I'm a huge advocate against re-paints). I would love a Captain Ginyu but they wouldn't make it an exclusive. It's too much money to create a brand new mold just for a convention. All in all I applaud them for making a really cool exclusive when they've so far gone with "darker paint job" exclusives

All in all I applaud them for making a really cool exclusive when they've so far gone with "darker paint job" exclusives By what you say, a repainted Cell, Saiyan Saga Vegeta without the flaps for Namek Saga, reissued SSVegeta, repainted SS3Goku, rescaled Future Trunks, rescaled Krillin, rescaled SSGohan would all have been better choices.

I just died a little inside. I really thought it was going to be majin. I might get him but I'm not sure.

I actually like the colours as they are unusual. I voted yes, but he'll probably be a pain to get/import to UK at a decent price!

I changed my answer to a maybe. I will only buy this figure if I can get him for the con price and not a mark up.

This was a no brainer I Kinnda thought everyone would know that this is what they were going to release based on the previous releases. Still that being said I like the colors but like everyone already said he dosent go with any other figure in the line until they release nappa next year in his same one time colors. That's what really sucks is that as soon as they let us know for sure that nappa will be made in his armor we will already know what next years sdcc will be taking all the fun out of the wait. I still say bandai is about half retarded for not rereleasing ss vegeta just for the $ they could make but what do I know.

Maybe they plan on announcing Majin era Vegeta next week or at Comic Con. If so then this was a good decision on their part

The more I look at him actually, the more I start accepting him. He'd actually look very nice in the space pod, especially if they make arlian nappa.

Not bad at all!! I actually wanted to see him and Nappa with these colors in WCF format!! This would be a buy if I collected S.H.

After just buying Goku I was really afraid they would announce Saiyan Saga Goku or something Phew. Anyway, I think it's a fine exclusive. I always prefer exclusives that are a bit obscure. This way, people who want them can easily get them, and people who don't can just ignore them.

Exactly. Majin Vegeta is popular enough to be a regular release. This was a good choice for a limited figure. Less people would buy it, less figures will be made

But you have to consider the lack of significance in this form and the improvements that many of the other figures need. Everyone could use an improvement whether on scale or color, but this wasn't one of them. Oh well.

That's what really sucks is that as soon as they let us know for sure that nappa will be made in his armor we will already know what next years sdcc will be taking all the fun out of the wait. The way you wrote that almost made it sound like Nappa was officially scheduled for release, and I want to make sure that doesn't end up as a rumor. Nappa without armor is definitely not being considered, and Nappa in armor is something that I had to really suggest with a lot of emphasis when I was working at A-kon, because I was told he isn't (necessarily) currently being considered either. Nappa isn't a definite figure at all. Which is unfortunate, because I'd like to be restricted from talking about him, like I am some other stuff mentioned to me, but that isn't the case as far as I know! If you guys want Nappa, you're going to have to start telling Bluefin on facebook and twitter , especially since he wasn't a character in my polls here (because he was not said to be cancelled back when I made the polls almost a year ago). He'll be in my new polls after SDCC is over, and he'll be getting one of my votes. We need a figuarts Nappa Bandai! Otherwise, what's the point of having Vegeta in Saiyan Saga armor? It's like buying a new pair of shoes and only getting the left shoe!
