Pics revealed for GT Pan (and Gill)

Well now I'm glad I missed kid Pan, because I didn't recognize her at all, but I absolutely recognize THAT version!
Finally found Kaio-Ken Goku at Target.
I have so many Gokus now. I don't know what I'm doing.
I would like to get that Trunks since I missed the original release but I'm not sure I like how shiny he is, and his hair being see through. I can paint the hair no problem, buy the rest is a bit of a turn off. Maybe if he comes with a normal head or hair and face piece. I have the other 2 they did and I really like them.
I'm not crazy about the pearl finish either on the Trunks reissue. I'm tempted to see if the original comes down in price with this new one likely being made available to anyone who wants it, but I doubt it. I wish they just did a different paint deco that's either darker or lighter from the original. The only plus is the faces are likely to be updated with their new face printing so they'll probably be an improvement. Dragon Ball Super Future Trunks is a hole in my collection though, so if I have to settle for the new one I will like I did Raditz even though I prefer the original deco on him.
What is the approx release date for the "Vegeta 24000 Power" figure?
24,000 Vegeta arrived today. I like the new portraits and Bandai tried some different things with this release in comparison to past Vegeta figures and past Saiyan armored figures. I'm not sure if the Namek Gohan or Krillin did the same, but the shoulder pads for this one connect at the bottom, rear, point with a hinged peg. It rotates and hinges up and down. It doesn't pop off super easy and overall looks better for posing, though it's still not perfect. The crossed-arms piece is also new and it now connects at the shoulder, ball, peg instead of the bicep. The left arm also plugs into the right hands so it's a bit easier to manipulate, though pulling out the arms isn't a fun experience (make sure you don't send the floating caps flying). The shoulder pads still are unable to slot-in seamlessly though. Since they can rotate back, they don't look as bad as they do on Raditz when that figure has the folded arms, but it still looks too silly to me for a proper display. They really need to just tool a separate set of shoulder pads that are positioned differently for this sort of thing like they did with Jeice.
@misfit thanks for the review. Have you tried headswapping this 24k with any of the other bodies?
@hopethisworks I have not, but it looks to be the same joint (hinged ball) as Super Saiyan Vegeta and Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta. I can't speak to the Scouter Vegeta as I don't have that one.
Man, they've really gotta start putting Vegeta and Goku on bodies with the new articulation.
Poor Vegeta is in tears over not being able to move like Ultimate Gohan.
Agreed. The armor makes it tough, even without the shoulder pads. Looks to be reusing most of the 24k Vegeta. The oversized shoulders work fine on that figure because of the shoulder pads, but look a little weird here. Looks like that battle damage is a swappable piece for the torso. It's okay, probably no effect part which will suck for a $60 P-Bandai release. Now they need to finally do Bad Man Vegeta.
@misfit Badman Vegeta and Goku in the orange jacket are instant buys.
Oh yes, I've been waiting for this Vegeta to get released for years! Although I do wish they had included the "heart blast" effect/swappable piece to from when Freiza kills him

Also showing off the Jeice in the promo pic really makes me want them to hurry up and reissue the Ginyu Force already! (I've only managed to get Captain Ginyu at a convention a few years back)
I want a reissue of Kefla and 18 from the Android Saga. Kefla looks so cool but she's expensive on the aftermarket.
