@jag2045 it would make a lot of sense to do The Ginyu Force again given all of the Namek-era figures they've added since. I never understood why they made Ginyu a mainline release while the others were all P-Bandai. Once I missed out on the other members there was no way I was going to pick-up Ginyu even when everywhere had him on clearance. I don't think they've ever re-released a P-Bandai figure though, unless it had a new colorway and I don't think I'd go for that with The Ginyu Force.

Agreed - and if they wanted to make them different to the P-Bandai ones theres an easy way to do it - just release them as the "dead" versions from the battle on King Kai's planet against Yamcha, Tien and Chaozu - include halo's with them and bam - new versions they can release in the regular line 🙂

Cui's out for delivery!
TLDR:
I still also need Raditz, though I prefer the original's paintjob, but love the Gohan slug with the new one lol, as well as classic Androids 17 & 18, as I stupidly passed on the first release when I still lived with my parents & had the money for them, and missed the reissue because I was then living alone & couldn't afford the new higher prices *sigh*, Majin Buu, Whis (originally passed because I wasn't trying to get all the unique characters at the time & only got Beerus), Android 16, and final form Cooler.
I'd also really like Tao Pai, Jackie Chun, Great Saiyaman, Zamasu, and Jiren; King Piccolo & Orange Piccolo to bolster my "Namekians" (Proud Namekian is my default Piccolo, but I'm displaying the other two with their yellow pads & red belts as random Namekians - though doesn't KP have pink, too? Crap lol), as well as Gotenks & GT SS4 Goku to bolster my "Saiyans" (which also reminds me I need to finish my custom Demonical Fit Vegito with the DF SSG Goku hair); and then Kid Krillin, just because Krillin's my favorite character, and I have the rest of his iterations in the line.
Anyone wanna win the lottery for me? I'll share with you, lol.
I would just really like for Bandai to return to Dragon Ball. I'm guessing those figures don't sell as well as the Z and Super stuff or else we'd already have a desert bandit Yamcha, Crane School Tien, cyborg Tao, etc. I would even be interested in more Bulma variants as well as variants of Goku, Krillin, and Roshi. I'm also the sort of sicko who would love to assemble Piccolo's gang but I know that's a pipe dream. It feels like that subline is dead though.
TLDR:
I'm still on the hunt for a properly sized Shippo for my Toynami InuYasha figures. The only one I could find was WAY too small. They made a small Kilala & Jaken in the line, but not him.
Of course, back to Figuarts effing us on missing figures, I'm still trying to find something to fill the hole left by Goemon amidst the SHF Lupin III figures...*SIGH*
It's a dead horse I hate beating, not only for my benefit, but to avoid annoying everyone else (also why I've been "spoilering" these rants & tangents, lol), it irks me more than only getting Spike & Vicious. Bebop is my favorite anime, and I desperately want quality true-twelfth action figures of the entire "main" cast (Spike, Jet, Faye, Ed & Ein, Vicious, Julia, Punch, Judy - yes, there are TONS more characters it would be great to have, but I'd consider those to be a "complete collection"), but I'm not so dense to admit that that's a helluva lot more figures to make than JUST ONE FRICKING GOEMON ISHIKAWA, ESPECIALLY AFTER YOU JERKS SHOWED A FULLY READY PROTOTYPE. UGGGHHHHH, lol.
Sorry.
Not super looking forward to their MHA line, since I already have 800 Dekus, but zero Froppy, zero Yaoyorozu, zero Tokoyami...but sure, give us another Midoriya, lol. At least I have Figma Uraraka, and Amazing Yamaguchi is not only doing her, but also Mirko, I just wish the first non-McFarlane Shigaraki was a look I wasn't as keen on as his more iconic one.
Just gimme an articulated Oolong, please.
TLDR:
SpoilerI'm watching a perfectly sized slug Puar on Aliexpress, as he's sorely missing (and I was grateful my slug Dende was replaced by the official articulated one, as well as them replacing their own Chiaotzu slug with an articulated one).I'm still on the hunt for a properly sized Shippo for my Toynami InuYasha figures. The only one I could find was WAY too small. They made a small Kilala & Jaken in the line, but not him.

I still hate that we never got Goemon to finish the Lupin line! They could have done a Haslab style kickstarter to try and fund him just to finish the gang (its not like Lupin III has a huge well of characters to do!)
Also I can't believe we've never gotten a full set of figures of the Bebop crew, both SHF and BST AXN only ever did Spike and Vicious - were's Jet, Faye, Ed and Ein!
Back to DBZ - according to BBTS the following figures are coming back in stock in August:
- Goku (A Saiyan Raised On Earth)
- Super Saiyan Full Power Goku
- Super Saiyan Vegeta (Awakening Super Saiyan Blood)
- Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Goku (Reissue)
New reveal - Medical Machine with 2x extra Goku "Saiyan Raised on Earth" face plates

I had to stare at Goku in that stupid machine long enough just watching the show day in and day out, I definitely don't need to watch him in it on my shelf.
🤣
That piece is cool for those who want it, but I can't imagine actually displaying Goku like that.
Exclusives are up on PBandai. I snagged goku with the nimbus, but I don't care for the other two.
Also had to change my shipping address on there because I was moving, it's not a great process for orders you've already made. It charges you again and refunds the original amount. So weird.
I was thinking about getting Jiren, but I'm not a fan of that glossy paint job they've given him. I was also considering Goku, but I really want to hold off on more Goku's until they start phasing this body out.
Yeah, I'm not feeling these ones. It's funny because I've been waiting years for a reissue of DBS Trunks, but that pearl finish and the lack of the Hope Sword kills it for me. Plus, that sculpt is showing its age. I feel basically the same way about Jiren, but I've also never been a fan of his character design. I mostly want it to pose beside UI Goku, but that seems like a silly reason to drop 85 bucks.
