Namek Veg's proportions are fine to me. Except his giraffe neck, that's about it.

Not aiming this at anyone (I’ve said myself I’m not really all that interested in GT Trunks), but the reception to Pan and Trunks vs Namek Vegeta is 100% why we get like 2 Gokus and Vegetas a year while anyone that’s not like, them and maybe Piccolo, Gohan, and Future Trunks, are all in a “they’ll release eventually” tier for Tamashi lol This, I have never seen fandom as whiny and bratty as this fandom like... other lines would WISH to have line of figures as alive as this line, look at Naruto or One Piece that struggled at the beginning or my dear Sailor Moon line being put on ice, and meanwhile this line has characters for everyone, is so alive than can give us characters that would have been impossible otherwise, like I would have never dreamed about a proper and perfect Lunch figure for example. I think the healthiest thing to do is that if you dont like a monthly release just be happy for people that do and save the money for another month. The fact that line keep getting bigger with a lot of diverse characters is so cool as collector, and somehow these people cannot ever be happy lol This. Being a Digimon fan and getting the same 5 Digimon recycled over and over in different colours blows. Is it not the 10 year anniversary of Battle of god's soon? Maybe that's why they've re-releases Godku

This. Being a Digimon fan and getting the same 5 Digimon recycled over and over in different colours blows. Dude I was so excited to see Angewomon being made and Tamashii has been radio silence after that when it comes to Digimon, it's sad cause I'm sure there's market out there. I dont even know why they havent done yet the original 8 chosen children with their digimon as a line, that would be so cool. Dragon Ball fans (we) are very lucky that is its top one seller line, I know it can be tiresome waiting month after month to a favorite character being made but patience is a virtue as they say.

True. I complain about King Cold, but at least he's on Tamashii's radar. He got a prototype.

I somehow skimmed over this detail… Namek Vegeta is being released in quarter 3 of 2024?
What the heck happened there? That’s a pre-order up for something nine months away (or twelve if it’s the last half), and there’s barely a lineup ready for quarter 2? Guessing maybe King Cold and GT Pan & Trunks?
Don’t think I’ve seen a pre-order for these figures exceed six months. 🤔

Don't worry, it happens that Bandai releases some figures in between. I guess 2 or maybe 3 figures to come will be included in the calender before Vegeta. At the end of the year, we will have basicly one figure a month in average.

I personally don't buy third party figures very much. Only got that bootlegged King Cold from Mexico. It was a OK NYCC, if only for that Vegeta and the Pan. But other DB Figuarts announcements let me down a bit.

I have to be honest. If that off-brand Kid Buu in the photos is the production version and not the paint master, then it is higher quality and better than Tamashii's quality. Plus, Tamashii would never include that many different body parts and expressive faces. There's also a B version, which I assume is supposed to be anime colors. omnimestore.com/products/adolescent-malevolence-version-b-tonsen-arttoys I like it more than A version, but the M on his belt needs to be painted black.

Namek Vegeta looks so cool and very accurate to the anime, but I am skipping him because he lacks accessories for a US$60 premium bandai figure. I have the scouter 2.0 and I am keeping it. 2 scouters, 2 tails and a hand with a broken scouter is better in my opinion.

This probably isn’t the place to ask this (should I start a thread in bootlegs instead?) but how does stuff like this Kid Buu get made? It’s clearly a fan wanting to sell the figures but like, who do they go through? Like who actually, makes them I assume each one isn’t by hand. Are they made to order or?
I’ve always kinda wondered that

Third party companies also need to be careful. Once they try to find a distributor, Bandai will take notice and step in. It's happened recently with a certain company that was well known.
