Since we're on the topic of who's wanting what Shf figures, I would like to know if anyone feels that these two will ever get a release in the future since the prototypes were shown?  They'll certainly be released at some point but Tamashii Nations is focusing on Dragon Ball Z for now. |

I never considered kid buu the iconic form of buu. For me it was super buu. Especially since in this form he wiped out all life on earth and even broke out of the room of space and time. Then he killed most of the z fighters and even absorbed gotenks, picolo and gohan! It took ssj vegetto to defeat him, whilst kid buu was defeated by regular goku just throwing a spirit bomb. Kid Buu wasn't holding back against the z fighters unlike super buu who wasn't being serious with Gotenks until Gohan got there while Super buu killed all life Kid buu blew up the planet and even pushed back the spirit bomb towards goku. He is also the true form of majin buu I agree with Kanji. Whilst Kid Buu did destroy the planet, he has zero intelligence and is a straight up an animal who just loves destruction. Super Buu had some character and intelligence. He likes to play around with his prey before killing them. Kid Buu is also the weakest form and I really don't like how small he is. Super Buu could easily destroy the planet as well but he doesn't because he has a mind of his own whereas Kid Buu just wants to kill and doesn't hold back. I think Super Buu is the best version and I hope we get a figuarts of him. |

I'm really looking forward to the Saiyan/Frieza saga Vegeta release. Do we know if it'll be a "Premium Color" recoloring or same shades but with the 2.0 mold?
All the best

So here's why I think they'll make the hair and torso for Yamcha swappable, and Tiens sash removable. Yamchas chest looks removable in this image. His dogi doesn't align on the right on the shoulder strap, and his pecks look elevated. With all of the new molds thus far, the entire upper torso has been one piece. It doesn't look like it is with this figure, so I would guess they would have a reason to make them seperate! (I'm betting to make the torso's swappable for the kanji.) This image shows the torso front and back also being separate pieces, which hasn't been standard for figuarts; normally that's one mold. Not only that, but there's a sizable gap between the two pieces. I'm betting because they're removable and there's a peg in the back and chest, and the two pieces just didn't meet fully. It would also explain them showing off both Saiyan and Cell saga versions of each character and explain the higher price point. You might be on to something there. I really hope so. They did something similar with Ramenman earlier this year. They provided an alternative torsa accessory for Buffaloman. It's a bit of a reach to suggest we'll get entirely new torso's tough. For 6,000 yen.   Wow, I had no idea this existed until I stumbled on this post. Not a fan of Ramenman but bought him just now for Buffaloman's 20 Million Powers shoulder pad! Also, new here so I'm not sure if there's a dedicated Kinnikuman Figuarts thread but anyone know anything about this?  Any info is much appreciated. |

Kid Buu wasn't holding back against the z fighters unlike super buu who wasn't being serious with Gotenks until Gohan got there while Super buu killed all life Kid buu blew up the planet and even pushed back the spirit bomb towards goku. He is also the true form of majin buu Kid Buu is also the weakest form Hmmm, not so sure. He's way much better than big boo (i don't know who precisely he's called in english Of course, big boo has lost power, but that is still a point. If he was weaker than Super boo, Gohan could have easily killed him, thereby, Vegeta would'nt have asked Goku to use the Genki dama. I think kid boo strenght must be considered a little over Super Boo but under Butenks for sure. Anyway, regarding the intelligence and the look, i must confess that a super boo figure would be cool as well  |

I'm so stoked for Kid Goku! I don't mind waiting. The longer we wait, the better these get. They're more expensive, but I'm really happy paying more because it looks fantastic.
I don't know if we're past the list stage, but I'll give mine!
1. Saiyan Saga Goku
2. Bulma
3. Chi Chi
4. Raditz
5. Goten and Trunks

I agree we need Bulma and Chichi, and Videl too! And then a good early Buu saga Gohan to go with Videl, Saiyaman or purple gi or whatever.

Can someone explain to me how preorders work in terms of being open to the public? For example, Kid Goku....how do I know when I can preorder him? Do some sites open their preorders on the first of the month, is it at random ect?
Also, what are the best sites to preorder from if I want the figure asap? The ones I know are Amiami, HLJ, Nippon.

is scouter vegeta worth a buy If you're referring to the new one, then hell yeah it is. I have the original with the loose left leg. Updated articulation will fix that problem. That's a must have. Sadly the value of the original is probably gonna drop lower than Perfect Cell, and that was a repaint. I'm just gonna toss the old Vegeta in the Saiyan Space Pod. Can't wait to get that Nappa. Time flies. Seems just like yesterday I pre-ordered it. |

I'm considering turning my old scouter Vegeta into a Tarble because I like the character and I can make use of the pieces.
Going back to the Super/Kid Buu debate... frankly, I'm in the "whatever" mindset, because I do genuinely see them as seperate characters and I want both of them for different reasons.
