Arguably one of the most sought after figures I think are the Oozaru figures made by Bandai. It took me a while to really get my hands on the Super Battle Collection Great Monkey Baby VOL.39. This isn't just about Bandai Oozarus they have made but about the ones a certain company showed at a New York Toy Show that never made it to shelves. I was just wondering has anyone seen the ones that Jakks Pacific was going to come out with many years ago. THEY WERE AMAZING!!!!!!! They never came out with them but as soon as I found out they were making them they were for Pre-Order on ToyWiz.com but later taken off. Does anyone remember them and does anyone want them to come out with the ones they were going too? I personally think that the S.H. Figuarts Line should do them. what do you all think?

Yeah it's a shame that those were never released. I'd love to have one of those prototypes, I wonder if they ever popped up on eBay. I think if S.H. Figuarts keeps the DBZ line going long enough they will release an Oozaru. Probably depends on how successful Shenron is (if he is released).

Someone should post all the prototypes of jakks/Irwin in a checklist or something.

That's definitely planned for the checklist section. There's a lot of nice prototypes that unfortunately never made it, like the IF Labs Dragon Ball Collection Series 3.

It's a shame alright, I wonder if anyone ever got their hands on the prototypes?

I would have to think at least someone got their hands on the prototypes. I Actually liked how they looked in the early stages too. I don't know if you guys watch that show Toy Hunter. The collector Jordan has gone to people who worked for companies that had prototypes from certain Action Figures. I think it would be awesome to see where these prototypes landed and in whose hands. The Golden Dragon Fist dragon in the picture would have been cool to own too I think.

If Bandai can make a Shenron then they can defiantly make an Oozaru.

That Gohan above looks pretty good actually. The hairs a bit too long but I can totally see it as Future Gohan when he was training Trunks
