Armorless Nappa and Buuhan I will never understand how they never came out.

Because those prototypes (and all the old unreleased ones) were basically just display pieces to gauge interest from a time before the line really released anything beyond core characters.
Like the most “minor” character back then was Android 16, the initial Broly was their test if “big” characters would sell, and the Nappa we did get was their test to see if “less important” characters would sell, and he was partially made because the Nappa prototype was by far the most requested one
It wasn’t really till they did Raditz, Launch, and First Form Freeza back in, 2020 I want to say? that we started getting things that weren’t main forms of main villains or characters that are major in multiple arcs consistently
Inevitably we’ll get Buuhan, we’ll get Buutenks, we’ll get armorless Nappa, but there is a reason they didn’t come out back then even if it sucks, the line was very different even just 5 years ago, most of those prototypes are older

I remember S.H. Figuarts being 15 types of Goku and barely anything else!
We're finally getting more niche stuff which is awesome. Like the Ginyus. Dodoria and Zarbon. Figures I just HAD to get.

You’re waiting for Cold, but I’ve been waiting for Champa, Vados, and Cheelai for even longer 😤 And then there’s me, who’s been waiting on armorless Nappa, Buutenks, Buuhan, and Angel Goku for even longer… I don’t think Angel Wing Goku will ever be released, same for that SS3 Vegeta prototype. Buutenks & Buuhan have way better chances, but personally I’ve given up on Naked Nappa. Tamashii probably won’t revisit the Saiyan Saga ever again. I don’t think he’s even appeared on any recent polls, so there’s that. As for that Jaco the Galactic Patrolman prototype, that’s literally anyone’s guess.

You say that now crisis, but there's no rhyme or reason to how Tamashii does these.

Just like me with my King Cold: He could drop tomorrow. Months from now. Never like bare-chested Nappa.
I'm just curious which order they're doing these in/

I don’t think King Cold will take that long to come out, since Cyborg Frieza is dropping soon so it would make sense to pair the 2 close together. I think the next big reveal would be Form 2/Imperfect Cell. But a pleasant surprise would be Future Gohan.
Also we would need another Goku, so the next one that makes sense is Saiyan Armor SS Goku when he was training in the room of Spirit & Time with Gohan.

I would LOVE a Second Form Cell. As well as a Perfect Cell complete overhaul. I like the current Cell, except his faces. They look icky to me.

Perfect Cell remade woun't be a bad idea, the one we have yet is a failure to me. Imperfect Cell could be cool too. I'm tired of Goku and Gohan, i would really prefer never been released characters instead.

Imperfect is first form right? If so they made him a year or two ago you can probably still find him for a good price ^ ^ he was a regular retail release so he’ll probably get reissued at some point in the future too
I still feel like Second form Cell and a new Perfect Cell are definitely going to be made eventually, probably as a P-Bandai and a retail release respectively. In the past couple years we’ve gotten every Freeza form besides 100% (and I guess Golden hasn’t been rereleased in a while but still), l’d be really surprised if they don’t at least do Cell’s forms and the main forms of Buu eventually too
New York Comic Con is next week I think? We’ll probably get some news there, whether that be new stuff or just release dates for something we’ve seen (probably King Cold)

I agree, but I believe Tamashii is mandated to always have a new SHF Goku figure always available on the market. Goku was barely in DBS:Super Hero but they made a figure of him regardless (which I skipped) The only Goku figures I would buy moving forward is the End of Z version (blue gi), and his Chibi GT form (which they’re probably going to milk to death, an exclusive with the tail, SS3 version, etc.)

I’m gonna be honest… the main reason I wanted Angel Goku was just to have a base Goku head with a halo (without having to modify anything). As for Naked Nappa, the main reason I wanted him was just to recreate the famous “OVER 9000!” meme lol I genuinely do want the other Buu forms though, especially Buutenks. That was my favorite form of Buu besides Good Buu/Fat Buu.

Buuhan was always my fave Buu design. Dang he looked cool.
