Yep, but there's no legit version of that exact figure, so maybe it's better to call it unlicensed.

What sets are these from? They are in France.  saiyen can you ask your French DBZ friends what the history is on small figures like this Master Roshi?  I have always wondered and have never successfully found a seller who knows where they came from. I think they are from 2004 or around that year, plus or minus 3 years. There's a Raditz, Bulma, Goku, Roshi, Paozusaurus, Gohan and more that are mostly Saiyan Saga characters. I've never seen them in packages and I have only seen them from France, so I assume they were toys that were in gumball machines?   |

I wonder why Dragon Ball never continued with gumball machine figures. I see tons of Marvel, Pokemon, Transformers, Hello Kitty, Smurfs and more here in my area all the time.

They should still have the junky toy ones at Big Lots or something in your town Gohan. I don't think Walmarts have them anymore, but I don't exactly look for them.

What sets are these from? They are in France. I know that the krillin on the left is from Bandai Dragonball Collection, you can put him or Roshi on the turtle figure.  And did you say Paozusaurus??? what line is that? |

It's a bootleg seller, they are most likely faked. |

Nah, that Tien's legit, just overpriced IMO. He was 16 euro when new, released many times, and since he's loose I'd say he's worth $20 max. MOC, between $40 and $60.

I don't know what the line is that the Paozusaurus is from, because I've never seen it in a package, nor any of the other strange 2 to 2.5 inch figures. I started seeing them on ebay France around 2008 (does that correspond with Kai's release in France?). I assume they are from a gumball machine and that's why I have never seen them packaged. Most of these figures are Saiyan Saga characters. I've attached a few pics of some mixed in with AB figures. The Irwin and Jakks figures that seller has definitely look like production leftovers and rejects. Trunks has a very bootleggish look to him, but the legit figure does too to be honest. He looks like a reject because his eyes are misaligned, and well, he was stored poorly and that's why he is scuffed. The Jakks Vegeta looks like a reject because of the bad hair paint job.  The Giochi Preziosi figures look like production rejects too, but still legit GP figures. This Goku looks to have two right arms, but with the proper hand on the duplicate arm...?  This Vegeta has paint or dye that rubbed off on him.
The legit Trunks did come with purple pants I've pretty sure during at least one release, but this one has yellow paint on his knee. He's also missing the sword and sheath.
