For the people who really want an sdcc goku and don't wAnt to pay big $$ to get him. Why don't you just use the normal goku body and stick manga ss goku head on it. I have all 3 and I can't see what's the big deal anymore about sdcc goku vs ss goku + normal goku body. Any reason why I don't see many other people doing this like I am?

Some people think it looks bad.
Some people want the shading of SDCC Goku's hair and gi.
Some people want to display SS Goku and Normal Goku seperately and don't own doubles.
Some people just want to own all of the Figuarts.
Is that about all?

The belt and wristbands are also a different colour when he turns SSJ.

Wouldn't you agree it is the best alternative? Considering you can get both for $70 compared to 350-500 the sdcc goes for. Besides wanting all of them, the other reasons don't really justify the price difference.

well I want them all, but I think SDCC Goku and Vegeta are the only ones I won't rush to get.
SDCC goku - because the reasons you said. I also thought about doing it and buy an extra normal goku when I'll buy the SS one.
and SDCC Vegeta, because I don't really like those colors. I have no intrest in buying him. and if I'll buy him in the far future, it'll be just to have them all.

Here's a side by side comparison I just did. I hope this helps people out that are still deciding whether to purchase sdcc or to do it like this. Attachment Deleted |

OMG THE BOOTLACES ARE BRIGHTER BROWN COLOUR MUST BUY
lol
But yeah I can see how that would work for some but not everyone is satisfied with that. Personally I leave my Goku's in their normal colours: SS in yellow and base in orange.

I can see this becoming much more popular later on when sdcc goku is harder to find and possibly even more expensive |

I don't know what you're talking about, there are tons of people that have already done this.

It would require a few repaints to get the normal body closer to the SDCC version. The gi isn't exacly like the SDCC body but it's close enough, you'd just need to repaint the sash/wristbands purple and darken the blue shirt portions a bit...then there's the matter of repainting the hair.
just saw the pic...I think I may edit it a bit to see how well the idea would work.

done...and I think it looks a lot better than the SDCC Goku as a whole. The bright neon orange works so much better with the desaturated dark blue.  |

I've been looking around for a few weeks to see if anybody set this up. Edited: Not that I don't like the figure but I feel the highlights in the hair only work when Goku is performing the Kamehameha. The shading doesn't work for anything else unless there's a bright light low in front of him. |

I'd much rather have the SDCC SSj Goku but I've also got bills to pay.
