@baneofdemon22 All of the figures Figuarts has made? Or just the recent ones? Well, from what they look like in pics, Yamcha looks to be ironically the best figure in the series to date. Tien looks slightly smaller than he should be, but still excellent. Saiyan Saga Vegeta is waaaaay too big. Nappa looks great but I'd prefer anime colors. The upcoming DBZ Goku looks AWESOME. SSG Goku looks a bit awkward. SS3 Goku looks great.

Based on pics, it looks like Yamucha is the best released to far, and the one to top it will be the Freeza arc Goku (which makes me very happy!)

I bought that Chiaotzu a few weeks ago in anticipation of Tien.
I had pre-ordered Tien through Amazon but then a few days ago, I found a California-based seller on eBay with the Japanese version in stock for less than the Amazon price and free shipping, so -- Tien being my favorite character and me being impatient -- I ordered from him instead! Tracking says he's waiting for me at home. Excited to open him up tonight and unite my Saiyan Saga Z-Fighters.

kanji Great pics! The effects are great! Thanks dude! I'm going to work on the display now I have all the characters I wanted to put in it. It need closer interaction between them, maybe with more hand-hand fighting poses, grapples, etc. Looking forward to the rock effects coming in April. They will definitely help fill some of the space!!

http://instagr.am/p/BeSZQ6GnO5F Forgive the instagram promoting... This figure is incredible. I found it strange at first, but I actually really like the cocky smirk face. It doesn't scream Tien but it makes fun poses. The other faces are good too. Maybe the stoic face is downgraded from the prototype, but it's not so bad really. I'm so glad we finally got a figure of the three-eyed baldy. I have been waiting for literal years, but the payoff has been good! Now I have to consider the TFC Chiaotzu...

Great poses! They really are versatile figures! I took Vegetto's effect piece for my Tien:

I gotta be honest. I actually like the Tien more than the Yamcha. Three of the Tien faces are particularly useful to me and only 2 of the Yamcha faces were. Plus, Tien has arguably the most diverse moves in the entire anime/manga. His default face doesn't look good unless you angle his face down. I'll likely repaint his eyes to be wider and sharper. As for Chaozu, I think his head should be swapped to a Jakks kid Gohan figure if you want to make him useful. I don't know if I'll end up doing that or not. Most likely not. The Chaozu figure pretty much sucks and is useless outside of the Nappa pose. The Figure Collection/Chochousouwhatever one displays decently with Tien. Head is a bit large. But it's more useful than the Chaozu he comes with. 5 inch collectors who haven't customized their own Chaozu will like and prefer the Chaozu who Tien comes with over the Irwin one because it scales better with 5 inch. Off-topic: Yamcha should have come with 2 instant transmission hands instead of two ki blocking/solar flare hands. Waste of hands. Tien comparison Chaozu comparison Jakks Tien with Figuarts Chaozu The Figure Collection Chaozu with Tien SOLAR FLARE! (TAIYOKEN!) (No photoshop, all lighting)

Gotta get me a Tien soon! Even though I don't collect Figuarts. Also, looking back at two of our old polls....where Tien and Yamcha ranked 2nd & 3rd, then 3rd & 4th respectively. Clearly, our website has a little influence on demand. Mind you, #1 in the first poll was Majin Vegeta, so check him off, too. I guarantee RADITZ is around the corner.
