I wouldn't call it a "possibility". I would say that next years sdcc exclusive WILL be SS3 goku. This is actually good news to me because I really like the character but didnt get the chance to own him. Yeah you're right we have never previously got a new one because Tamashii believes that that is the correct color for him. But now with all this Buu saga stuff, and the fans common distasted for his paint job, we will probly see him as an SDCC.

I think goku and vegeta were hastened. They don't give the impression of the figuarts zero quality. They look like that other banpresto action pose line that I can't remember it's name. I think there will be much more improvements on their faces and quality. Why is bardock cross-eyed lol?

Very excited for the Buus. I no longer have to worry about getting the crappy Jakks Gotenks Buu with the cloth vest.
I may get the SS4 Goku since the Jakks GT line was made bigger than the DBZ line, so the Goku might be about the same size and would be a significant upgrade.

I think it's great that they are doing Ultimate Gohan, so they can just pump him out and focus on new characters. I would prefer getting Future Gohan (never going to happen) or the blue gi, but I still like the look, so I'm fine with it. Hopefully, they can pass on the tooling savings for us on future releases! It sure seems crazy how cheaper these are then if an American company handled something of this quality. They'd probably charge $65! I think they did an amazing job on these, and I really appreciate that they chose the Boo that goes with the most characters. He's also the Boo that had the most character, which I think a lot of people here appreciate. I sure do at least. Although I'm not the biggest fan of Super Boo and Vegetto in the anime, I love them in the multi-verse fan manga! For those who haven't read it, this might get you excited: www.dragonball-multiverse.com/en/page-0.html#h_readAnd if you already absolutely love these characters, then right on!

Vegeta\Kaio-KenX4 Goku\Raditz\Bardock are amazing, I'm definitely picking those up. I'd really like to know how well those will be displayed next to the SHF though... Having a Saiyan saga focus in the Zero line is a possible sign Tamashii want to experiment the market reaction, and so far all of the Zero releases were borrowing from the S.H selection, this is a strong sign for possible S.H. Saiyan saga type of character selection after the current Buu saga selection.

Don't get me wrong bro I've been dramatically hyped for them that I've been showing them to everybody I know all day, but sometimes it worries me that tamashii ignores corrections. I hope I'm wrong. What made you think it's a kaiokenx4 goku? He looks like normal goku to me.

If they listened to the fanbase about Vegito, they make take our other corrections into consideration.

Since the Goku and Vegeta Zero are based on the Galick Gun vs Kamehameha scene, Goku used Kaioken X3 and then X4.

The Buu's look FANTASTIC. It looks like they're gonna be two separate releases. FINALLY, there's a good Buutenks figure. All I need to do is take my extra Piccolo cape and hopefully it will fit to make Piccolo Buu. I really like how the heads/faces are different with attention to the different chins. Buuhan even has the removable antennae!
Ultimate Gohan is okay. Just a new head on a base Goku body. Didn't really expect anything more than that. They could've definitely darkened the gi and made it red but oh well. Simple release and I anticipate we'll be seeing Great Saiyaman as the next Gohan after this one.
SSJ4 Goku is perfection. I'm very happy that they're delving into GT. I've always loved the SSJ4 design and they pulled it off perfectly. Hoping to see SSJ4 Vegeta, Gogeta, Omega Shenron, Baby, and Super 17. The focus would still be on DBZ but with a sprinkle of GT every now and then.
Happy to see Raditz and Bardock in figuarts scale, but sad that they're Zero. Maybe one day, they'll release articulated forms of these guys but for now, I'm happy I can have these two characters in my collection. The Jakks/Irwins never quite did it for me.
Everything else, I couldn't really care for. Saiyan saga Vegeta and Goku look okay, but I'd rather have an articulated early Goku. The Zero EX look amazing but their scale is just too big to consider getting them.
These releases are much more exciting for the fact that Tamashii is finally realizing how popular and successful the Dragonball franchise really is. This changes everything and I can definitely see characters that we once thought were probably never going to get figures (Cooler, Janemba, ANY GT characters) get released. It looks like they're stepping up releases and we'll be getting more figures per year than before, maybe even one a month! Long live Tamashii Nations!

Any problems you guys have with faces, I wouldn't worry about. When Vegetto was first showed off the representatives said that it looked like "s-word," but they needed something to show. They sure did a great job fixing that face, so I wouldn't doubt they'd change others. Gohan's face looks kind of wonky to me, but I have complete faith it will look great in the end! juanjorman They sure do look amazing!

I feel that's an option that we, as a fanbase, have and should, respectfully, take advantage of. Super Saiyan 4 Goku Improvements... - Knee joints. This will allow the figure to have that complete look while bending his legs rather than an open area. Everything else, to me, is amazingly well sculpted. Edited: Similar to Krillin, Trunks, and Broly.

That's how I am with all these, because I like pretty much every character and it's figuarts, so you know they look awesome! But then I have to step outside (literally!) and come to my senses. I just have to live vicariously through the people here! You guys have way better poses then I come up with anyways! Oh heck, it'll probably end up like this:
