I'm so tired of chibi figures, they're just ugly imo. I honestly don't even understand the appeal, the Funko POPs are the worst though, they don't even resemble the characters. Why do people want figures with heads that are bigger than their bodies? I'm also super tired of DBZ figures being so expensive, it's ridiculous. Growing up I could go to Walmart, Target, Kmart, GameXChange, Game Stop, Toys R Us, or even fast food places like Burger King and Wendy's and get cool DBZ toys for reasonable prices. Now, I have to go on auction sites to get DBZ stuff for decent prices and then there's shipping and handling to worry about. I wish being a Dragon Ball figure collector wasn't so hard in America. I couldn't agree with you more. I too am not a big fan of Chibis/deformed figures, they are not much fun and are a bit lame. I only bought a cell funko due to the fact it was on sale a wile back. I Miss going to babbages and same goodys and toys r us and geting DBZ toys for 5.99, 6.99. Its not Just DBZ that is very expensive Look at the Marvel Legends, Back in the day those type of figures were around 5 bucks or so growing up now they are like 20 and have gone down in quality. So basically paying 20 bucks for a 5 dollar figure, most are sloppy and reuse the same buck so you get other charecters with a peg hole in the back that's meant for a captain america sheld on the mold. I actaully haven't even seen anymore at the stores which is very sad. The S.H Figuarts have gotten very pricy now a days. I miss the Irwin and Jakks figures, I wish another toy company would get the license and pick up were jakks left off that way to have a cheaper alternative to S.H figuarts thats now like 50-60 bucks a pop

They'll be equivalent to the Power Rangers Legacy figures that are out now, if you've seen those. There's a thread about them here if you haven't seen it.

Hope i get a chance to get them considering all the scalpers in my area. Hopefully they release these in big abundance. I really want Beerus !

I've gotten these at Walmart and at a local comic shop, I think the ones wal mart gets are ones that don't live up to quality control standards. The ones from the comic shop have clean paint and the joints have better motion. The ones at Walmart have paint slop everywhere, my vegeta came with 2 right hands, and I actually pulled the metallic chase goku out of a case at Walmart (top layer front right) and he had blue paint mess on the gi. But the trunks and kid buu are very good. Also the shenron BAF is ridiculous I bought a whole case and got only midsection and base. Was lucky enough to have the head in with the kid buu. I decided to get the last piece on ebay because like everyone has said these are very expensive.
