I'm pretty excited for whatever the exclusive ends up being. Just worried about what I'll end up having to pay for the figure. Typically in my experience, you can get a SDCC on eBay for 60-70 shipped within the first few days so it's really not that bad and they always put a stock on Bluefin Premium, but depending on the figure you gotta be quick. As long as you don't let too much time pass and try to get one ASAP, it shouldn't be that expensive/hard to get one. It's actually MORE to get one at the convention itself even if you live right next door to it. Yeah, the moment it's made available on eBay I'll be picking one up. Whatever it may be. Haha.

Let's calm down and stay on topic here. I see a few comments since mine there that I would like to jump on and debate but enough is enough. It's clear we have a very bi-polar attitude here regarding the topic of reselling. That's fine, I don't agree with it all either, but let's just respect each others' opinions. Whether you're for it or against it, let's all just be respectful. I'm a big fan of the battle-damage characters and would like to see them! I wonder what the likelihood is of Tamashii making them... Namek Battle SSJ Goku better be the first if they go down that path.

I agree, I don't think I'd even want any battle damaged character besides Namek Goku. That's the only one which is a really defining look for me.

BD 4X Kaio Ken Goku (Saiyan saga) BD Vegeta (Saiyan saga) BD SS Goku (Frieza saga) BD full power Frieza (Frieza saga) BD Majin Vegeta (Buu saga) that's pretty much every BD figure I'm looking for. and I think it'd great idea if they'll make BD characters.

Guys it's not worth arguing. Your posts will just get deleted anyway... gotenks I agree with those you listed! I think I would like a BD SS2 Goku too though, he would work well with a Majin Vegeta.

New here, but I've watched this argument kinda go on forever now. I don't know what else there is to say about it. Scalping isn't illegal, but its morally grey. You aren't a licensed business, you aren't selling for anywhere near MSRP. That's it. There's not anything "wrong" with it and you won't get in trouble. But if you are complaining because people aren't happy with your behavior then I think you need to come to terms with that never changing. You're playing with moral fire. So why don't we just let this thread cool down until we get some actual release info?

Please keep this topic reserved only for upcoming figure releases. If you want to continue unrelated discussions, you're more than free to do it in PM's.

About the battle damaged Figuarts, I feel Tamashii might consider that their Figuarts Zero line is good enough. If you look at Figuarts Zero, a lot of them are battle damaged AND they're in scale with SH Figuarts as well. I like the Zero figures because it gives me a chance to see some battle damaged forms but I would LOVE if they extended that courtesy to the SH Figuarts line as well

Figuarts would probably cost a bit more too.

I wouldn't mind paying slightly more for an articulated battle damaged figure at all. I think once they start running out of main character releases they might venture into battle damage versions. Until then, the Zero line will have to do

Since they love their surveys. I think the best we can do is a write-in campaign for any of us that go to any conventions where Bluefin is present. That is apparently how we got Broly over as a choice...
Seeing as how Tamashii seems to LOVE re-using molds and parts for these lines (especially DBZ). It wouldn't be too hard to do a battle damage Goku and re-uses pieces here and there. They could grab the upper torso/arms from Kinnikuman, re-use the SSJ and Reg. form hair (toss in some new faces please), Goku's boots and even re-use the popular Goku pelvis piece we've seen re-used. The only "potential" new molds would be a torn belt and some new legs with all the pant tears.
Personally, I'd rather see newer pieces than old, but considering how Tamashii does things, this might be one route they take if they look into it.

Add some nipples and you got yourself a battle damaged Goku torso. This HAS to happen
