Demoniacle Fit is doing some solid work. Jeice and Guldo are up for preorder on Ebay. I'd watch yourself on buying those DF figures. I heard from multiple sources the Ginyu and others were loose-jointed piles of garbage. The head pieces are one thing, but an entire figure... It's no different than buying a datong.

They pretty much fixed everything wrong with SH Figuarts Cell. The gap on his stomach where the purple skin is is the biggest fix. It's super wide on the SH figure for some reason. They have made 3 versions of him and never fixed it. The next biggest fix is the size of his eyes. SH made them way too big.

I've seen reviews on all their figures so far and they seem decent. Good figures to have since SH Figuarts probably will never make them.

For what it's worth: I have the 'F Soldier' (Banan) and Kaio-Ken Goku from Demoniacal Fit. While I was kinda underwhelmed with the Banan figure, the Kaio-Ken Goku is SOLID. There's very very little I dislike about it. It has a slight mobility issue with the neck/head, but it's a really great duplicate of the 2.0 Goku.

^ Ditto.
I own the Ginyu and think it acts a pretty solid placeholder. I don't see it being any different from people who buy Dragon Stars or fixed pose statues to fill out the gaps in their display. At Least DF are SHF scale and have some articulation (albeit not as great as the official products).

I already have the SDCC Kaioken Goku but thinking of getting the Demoniacal Fit one to pair with 2.0 Vegeta. That a good idea?

I don't have the SHF Kaioken Goku, but comparing with a regular 1.0 Goku... If I had the SDCC, I'd easily replace it and sell that off. Make a pretty penny and, honestly, get a better figure in return. I know there's not always great quality control with DF but I'm just super satisfied with my Goku. It's barely a notch down from the official one.

Hadn't heard anything on the Goku so that's good that it's solid. The ones that I referred to were the first wave (Ginyu and the soldier guy). It's inevitable that Captain Ginyu and the rest of the Ginyu force will get SHF figures made of them at some point when Tamashii decides to focus on that saga again. When they do, we will more than likely see a First Form Freiza, Namek Vegeta, Ginyu Force, maybe a Porunga (One can hope).

Well they are still asking customers to vote on the Ginyu Force, so they should come, but could be another 10 years for all we know, so I'm happy with the placeholders for now Ginyu actually looks really nice on display and once posed with Jeice and Guldo they'll look great together! Happy for the short term satisfaction. It's like not buying the 1.0s because we expect 2.0s are coming.

Are the absorbsion forms of Super Buu likely to be released? I think if they are released it will be different bodies to put on one pair of legs and arms. It would probably be the first figure to break $100 as a retail price.

Not anytime soon and I don't think they would go against the grain with what they've done already. as far as doing multipacks with different bodies and extra legs and stuff or like two packs to Goten and Trunks I honestly don't see it happening and if any of those figures do get relief they're going to be single releases somehow

Agreed! I stand by my theory that those prototypes were simply "props" designed to help promote and boost the sales of Vegetto and Ultimate Gohan. A bit like Korin with Kid Goku. I don't think there was ever any serious intent to market them, although I could be wrong. And yeah, multi-packs and build-a-figures are not Tamashii's style. Whatever they release will be stand alone. You can see that by how they treat SSJ3 as a separate release instead of just including it as a hair piece. Oh, and

Personally I think the 2.0 Vegeta is also quite worth the upgrade, and if you've got the box, 1.0 Scouter Vegeta goes for a pretty decent price on ebay and such. I'm not sure what you could get for it loose. Of course you could always keep it too, but if I was buying the newer version, I'd feel that I want to sell the old one (which is worth a bit more) to help fund the new one. On ebay you can find 2.0 Vegeta in the $45-55 range, and the boxed resold 1.0s I saw going for at least $90.
