I tried using an emoji and it came out as question marks.

None of villian reissue. The 3 got reissued are normal releases.

I've posted it a couple of other places, but my bets are on a Super Saiyan Vegeta release in the summer of 2016. We'll have to see!

If they decide to give up their damn policy, I could see SSJ Vegeta and Trunks. As for now, we're just gonna get loads and loads of Manga Goku, Gohan, and Pickles

Web exclusives never get released: limited in number/no reissue/originally coming with brown shipper boxes. That's why exclusive figures go skyrocketed once they get sold out from retailers.

ssjdude, @fukkatsu no F, legato, this is a statement from a Tamashii rep, stating that they have no official stance on reissues in USA. This holds true with the fact that they've already reissued a Goku Zero statue. There is hope for SS Vegeta still! Prices heighten because of supply and demand. Supply is nonexistent in the market currently with them not producing any, so demand is through the roof. For the video quote, you'll want to hit around the two minute mark.

Atm, figuarts goku were sold out and prices were still decent. And they did it for special case since they were entering European market. Also, collectors pay such high prices due to exclusive rules. Over 10 yrs, as much as i know. They have never reissued other than zero goku. And they will not issue same version of ss vegeta which sold out 3 yrs ago. I have seen too many people mourning about high prices. And the fact is they will not be reissued unless they are diff version of ss not the same version and same coloring. jeez peep just dont hope reissues on exclusives and get them asap. You guys already learned lessons from previous exclusives.

Fukkatsu no F, I'm going to try an address all of your points.
"Figuarts goku were sold out and prices were still decent. And they did it for special case since they were entering European market." The special case for the European market was when they reissues Goku and Piccolo together. That was actually Goku's second reissue, so you're not wrong, the prices wouldn't have been that bad. However, the price before the first Goku reissue was equivalent to Vegeta's price at the time. I think you also failed to note Piccolo's price was 100+, and Gohans before the issue was well over 150+ before their initial reissue. I got Gohan the christmas of 2013 at that price, so I image that he would have gone up until they announced his reissue.
"Also, collectors pay such high prices due to exclusive rules. Over 10 yrs, as much as i know." (The Line started in 2009.) You are not wrong that collectors are likely concerned about the exclusive rules. (Which only apply to the japanese market, as specified by the video. Also, we are selling the action figures in retails in America, so it kind of debunks the whole "web-exclusive" concept.) However, supply and demand is a very real thing. If Goku, Piccolo, and Gohan hadn't been reissued, all of their prices would easily be up there with Vegeta and Trunks. They have been reissued though, so their prices are cheaper.Keep in mind that Vegeta was also the first web exclusive, which likely means that they didn't create as much inventory for him, either, due to mild sales for the first three. The mixture of those is why he and Trunks are so coveted now.
"They have never reissued other than zero goku." From their current reissue pattern, they are slowly making their way down the list. SS Goku, Piccolo, SS Gohan have been reissued. Those were also the first three DBZ Figuarts released. The next in line to be reissued would be Vegeta, according to release date. Yes, there is only one web exclusive so far. But that is enough to show that the policy doesn't apply to the US market.
"And they will not issue same version of ss vegeta which sold out 3 yrs ago." You cannot say that with certainty, as you are not Bandai, or a Bandai representative.
"I have seen too many people mourning about high prices." I haven't complained about the high price, personally. I'm just hoping they'll do a reissue. To be candid, the figure isn't worth the 200+ in my eyes. It's on par with SS Goku when it comes to accessories, which means there's virtually none.
"And the fact is they will not be reissued unless they are diff version of ss not the same version and same coloring." This is not a fact. Nowhere on their website does it say this. The actual Bandai representative's statement contradicts this.
"jeez peep just dont hope reissues on exclusives and get them asap." No. I'm personally not going to spend over 200+ on an action figure. Especially one that's extraordinarily lacking in accessories, and pales in comparison to others. I'll just hope for the reissue to come soon, which I believe it will. The demand is growing as this line gets more and more fans and buyers from places like Barnes and Noble. I think it'll only be a matter of time.
"You guys already learned lessons from previous exclusives." I am a single person, and haven't the faintest idea of what lessons you're talking about? I've got all of the figures I want except for SS Vegeta.

I dont care how your opinion is about. im talking about the facts. its pointless you talking about prices of regular release and reissues of them. Bandai can issue number of times since they are not exclusives. And the price of exclusives will go up although you dont want to pay those prices. there are already number of people willing to pay to complete the collection regardless of hifh prices. simple as f: Exclusives will not be reissued and prices will go over time. its just pointless topic talking about reissues of exclusives since it wont be. If you are not going to pay those prices thats ok just move on. again,its just dumb. Ive only seen people noob to collecting exclusives/limited run items only talking about reissues which will not happen. People know how exclusives work so they pay those prices. they are not dumb. Its just dumb pointlessly talking and hoping for exclusives reissues.

You're not talking about facts, you are just spouting your opinion. The fact is that people have heard on multiple occasions from the Bandai US representatives that reissues for figures that are "web exclusives" in Japan are not out of the question in the US. They haven't been decided on yet, but that doesn't mean they will or won't happen. The US market is not necessarily bound by the same rules.
And, just because someone will fork out $200-300 to buy a figure, doesn't mean it won't come out again in the future. Secondary market prices shouldn't even be a point, when talking about the topic of reissues.
