Incorrect, PC Vegeta is an accurate Android Saga version of the character. The new Super Vegeta is an accurate Cell Saga version. Just the same as the Teen Gohan is an accurate Cell Saga version and Ultimate Gohan is an accurate Buu Saga version. Just because Super Vegeta is being released, does not make PC Vegeta an obsolete release. It could be said that the new Vegeta is also Android saga accurate, so PC Vegeta is not necessary in anyone's collection, quite frankly. Sure, Bandai would have you buy every single Vegeta iteration by saying they are from different sagas even though they are basically the same exact character variant. But that doesn't mean you have to fall for it. The new Vegeta is actually the Cell Saga version since he has the boot tips with the lines and is also more muscular. The PC is a pseudo accurate Cell Saga version since it has boot tips but doesn't have the lines in them. The OG SSJ Vegeta is an accurate Android Saga since it's lacking boot tips. Vegeta started wearing the boot tipped boots post HTC during the Cell Saga after Bulma gave him and Trunks the new armor. During the Android Saga, he didn't have boot tips. That small detail differentiates both sagas.

I still feel like an idiot for buying the PC Vegeta when he came out. I feel like a sucker. Because Kami knows I'm going to buy this new Vegeta. His faces and hair alone look much better, plus the new leg joints and abdomen joints. Big seller here to me, even if they are being jerks and not including black hair (again...)
So now I'll just have two ssj vegetas, I guess. I'd pose the PC Vegeta in a powered down state, but ya know, SCREW EVERYONE WHO WANTS TO DO THAT LOL.
I mean I have the powerdown head from that cappy datong souter Vegeta that eventually just broke, but it really looks like crap. Maybe I'll just paint ssj Vegeta myself.

Ah. don't feel bad man. it could've been worse. you could've paid $140+ for the Vegeta right before PC got released (for $40.) That happened to my friend. Even though it is slightly better, it's not $100 more betta, you know?

I'm starting to get antsy/hyped as he's getting closer to release. Granted I'm praying I still can afford him as I was hit by the recent hurricane here and it sucked my funds.

After looking on YouTube I found a Spanish collector who got his hands on him early and this is a side by side of the pc and the new vegeta coming out in October. The head seems different on the new one than the Proto pics but it's still a definite improvement over the OG head.

You caught the Out of da Box review, Ashiva. They usually get the prototypes in hand to review them before they get mass released.

I'm sad at the moment right now. The person watching my 2 year old daughter didn't keep an eye on her and she got ahold of my vegetto figure. Now I'm missing the ssj normal face and cant seem to find it anywhere in the room.

The head seems different on the new one than the Proto pics but it's still a definite improvement over the OG head. I was thinking that this "Super Vegeta" didn't have any more muscle mass than the normal Vegeta. It looks like they did add a decent amount with the shoulders at least. Vegeta looks like he had a lot of shoulder days in the gym The torso looks a bit wider too, but that might just be because of the ab articulation that they added which increased the torso size. Like with the Saiyan Armor Trunks (or SSJ figures generally speaking), I'm not a fan of the orange shading in the SSJ hair, but Vegeta's doesn't look that bad in that picture. I would prefer he have blonde eyebrows instead of having a light orange looking color. The orange shading is more frustrating because Trunks and Vegeta didn't have any in their hair in the promotional pictures. So, the final product certainly changes from what they advertise on the box, and they even say as much on the boxes themselves.

He looks perfect. I actually like the orange shading in the hair. PC Vegeta looks so weak and pathetic in comparison. I guess I will paint my PC Vegeta's hair black *shrug* might as well make him my base form Vegeta.

I think Trunks head sat lower so it didn't look as bad. This head definitely looks like it sits higher on the body than the prototype.

I don't know. I, actually, prefer the previous head to the new one. The long neck, and the head being wider...it just seems "off" to me. I'm still not all that excited for this figure. I'm tired of Vegeta in Saiyan armour. I want a Buu saga Vegeta!

I'm tired of Vegeta in Saiyan armour. I want a Buu saga Vegeta! IMO, the new face mold looks more accurate and faithful. It looks way better. The old face mold is the one that looks off, IMO. But I guess: to each their own. I'm happy with this Vegeta. I missed out on the Scouter version, and both Saiyan versions looked off to me from the second I laid eyes on them. Aside from the slightly longer neck, I simply cannot understand how the new one could look off to you.
