Currently yes. My collection has evolved over the years. I used to collect Figuarts hardcore. Google image search my username darksenshi and you can see how its changed over the years lol. I'm thinking about going that route. I have all of these beautiful statues next to my Figuarts and the statues make them look like garbage! I'm also one of the few who thinks Figuarts/articulated figures are incredibly overrated, and also don't think they look good. Statues actually do their best to portray the character as accurately as the artist can. The only Figuarts (and articulated) figure I have is re-issue Gohan, and I'm thinking about selling him once his value goes up.

I meant to say Yahoo search lol. But yeah thats the main reason I swicthed over to Dragonball statues because they look sooooo much better without the joints showing and falling over as soon as you bump them wrong. Just saw your collection... It was huge! Nice Godzilla collection. You should make a thread for your current collection. Thanks! I will soon. Keep a look out for it.

Yeah i started collecting Figuarts after I bought a Goku at this store called Disc Replay. I bought a bunch of statues and had credit left over and bought the Goku figuart. I didn't think it looked all that great but I then found out about how high the price was for the past releases and I think I got caught up in the hype. Now I have almost all of them. I think it's funny how a lot of people hope all of these gorgeous statues are in scale with figuarts.

I got my Goku and Bardock. It's worth noting that they are referred to as "SCultures BIG" on their boxes. Taking the obvious size differences into consideration when compared to just normal "SCultures".

Next month released: Cell 2nd form and SSJ Vegeta! By clicking this link you can see these two figures in 360 °! Enjoys it. www.banpresto.jp/360/49833/49833.htmlwww.banpresto.jp/360/49825/49825.htmlNote Vegeta's left elbow touches the base. Compared with the prototype from last year. Since the figure looks even smaller. I think about it because Vegeta, if I really want him again.

Finally there is someone who made comparison pics with Goku sc2 (and Piccolo)! They look pretty good together. And check the 3rd photo out, the 4 scultures of this contest fit nicer together with the customized bases. That's because the position they're in, specially Goku who's leaning to the side. Leaning to the front would have been even better so he would lose some more height and adapt with Raditz and Nappa. <3ing Raditz, finally a decent sized figure of his awesome character design. Review Raditz: blog.livedoor.jp/prizeman/archives/1038118026.htmlReview Nappa: blog.livedoor.jp/prizeman/archives/1037600449.html

They didn't add the blood on the back of Goku and Bardock and changed their positions to gain more height and now Vegeta is losing his by just making it to be lying on the floor. Just c'mon!!!

I can not wait to get Raditz and Nappa! At Cell 2nd form and SSJ Vegeta, I have mixed feelings!

Same. I'm more doubtful about getting Cell 2nd than Vegeta, though. Vegeta looks great overall, my only gripe now would be his new positioning. The size is good and will look good next to his non ssj scultures counterpart. Cell 2nd in the other hand while the sculpting is also great, it won't look good next to sC1 Perfect Cell.

@redstar Vegeta looks a bit bigger to me though. He's also shorter than his son. We will see!

Overall, I'd say that Vegeta looks really great but, again, his right leg is just bent so far back. I can't shake how weird it looks to me. I wonder if a little boil 'n' bend action might fix that. Cell looks a little small compared to Vegeta, as well. I'm still going to buy them, but arrrgh.
Those group pics of Raditz, Goku, and Piccolo are SO damn cool. Really makes me wish that I had a SC2 Goku.
We really need a Saiyan Saga Vegeta to pair with that Nappa.

But in future focusing more on the characters of Dragon Ball Super. I doubt if it ever is to have at the Scultures this Vegeta, also possibly from other Saga. I hope I am wrong. Unfortunately, next year will be one such! At the moment I see a bit too much SSGSS Goku and Golden Frieza figures. No matter what line. I think slowly the Dragon Ball world consists only of Goku and Frieza... Otherwise you buy the Saiyan Saga Vegeta from the Figuarts Zero. That could well match with Raditz and Nappa!
