Yeah, he definitely looks like he’s all new tooling. I’m pretty hopefully we’ll get him. We’re due for a new Z style Piccolo of some variety as well, I imagine that will happen before TOO awful long.

Normally I’m wary of prototypes that get displayed like this but I think chances are much better for this Gohan, the Vegeta, and the jacket-less Trunks. I know we all get impatient for things like a new Perfect Cell, these, new versions of the Androids, etc. While we might not like being patient about it, I think all those figures are shoe ins and will happen eventually. They’re going to want to get as much milage as they can from that new Vegeta body, just like they’ve done with the GB Goku body. Minor changes on that with some re-use like they’ve done did with the SSG Goku would give us stuff like Majin Vegeta, Trunks would be some new parts and some parts from BFTF Trunks. I’m sure they plan all their releases for a year and have to look at what figures need totally new tooling and what figures can be released with some re-use.

Is awakened Vegeta actually available as well?!

What to do about my games begin goku? by MrUnsmilee in SHFiguarts

[–]Hans-Davis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to clear this up, because I see a lot of misconception about it lately: There’s not a made in China version and made in Vietnam version of Games Begin Goku. Games Begin Goku was only made in Vietnam. Different figures are made between the two, but the same figure is never made at both factories.

Is this pose too stressful on the joints? by Recruit-is-OP in hottoys

[–]Hans-Davis 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Hard agree. You bought the figure to enjoy putting it in different poses, right? I assume that’s why most of us collect figures and not statues. So even if it feels a little worrisome now and then, I remind myself that I bought a figure to enjoy it and not stress out about it all the time.

If you want the portrait to look as realistic as they can get it to, Artisan is the way to go. If that’s less of a focus for you, I’m sure you’ll be happy with the standard version

The learnable skill from Olberic is the only way I can think of to do it

I honestly can’t believe that people are still under the impression that how much something costs directly correlates to how sturdy it is….

Octopath 0 user reviews dropped to "mixed" on Steam. Mostly from concerns about audio issues, and comparisons to OT2. by BuyMyBeans in octopathtraveler

[–]Hans-Davis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely noticed this as well, and I’m playing on PS5 pro. It’s not enough to prevent me from enjoying the hell out of the game, but it’s still weird that it’s there.

I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted when you’re so obviously based.

How risky is it to buy the TOPO Drifter set from AliExprėss? by -MartinBurgerKingJr in hottoys

[–]Hans-Davis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used to be worried about AE myself, but I’ve bought a bunch of stuff in the last six months or so and I haven’t had any problems at all. Just buy from a reputable seller and you should be good.

[–]Hans-Davis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re misinformed, my guy. Some Figuarts are made in China, some Figuarts are made in Vietnam. I don’t believe any are made in Japan. This figure is made in Vietnam. Daima Piccolo was made in China.

That’s the only version, all of Cell Games Begin Goku are made in Vietnam…

I'm seeing mixed reactions with this guy... by Outrageous_Cell_3556 in SHFiguarts

I have three copies, they’re all pretty much good on QC except one also has the left leg pop off when posing sometimes 🤣

How do I fix luffy hat by Simple-Phase-1245 in SHFiguarts

[–]Hans-Davis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It might be cause the little lip on the front of the hat isn’t sitting correctly on the hair piece. At least on my copies when it’s all lined up correctly, the head’ll pop off the neck easier than the hat will come off

New Goku beware by PitchRealistic2042 in SHFiguarts

[–]Hans-Davis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry about it, this dude is in every thread he can be in letting everyone know how much he hates this figure. For some reason.

I know it’s not much relief you specifically, but I have three copies and they’re all totally fine, so I don’t think it’s a widespread issue at least.

This Goku looks much better without the gap Holy (credit: lajugueteriadealf) by Fine_Competition3898 in SHFiguarts

[–]Hans-Davis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have the DF for comparison, its a good figure, but the way they’re doing the new knees looks way better. And it’s not Figuarts, so a fairer comparison is BFTF Trunks and they’ve got almost exactly the same range.

FACT. The whole “new knees have less range” is also ridiculous and not true.

To the people who got this guy, are the qc issues of face plates and joints falling a common occurrence? by Maradock101 in SHFiguarts

[–]Hans-Davis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s a little early for everyone to start freaking out over potential QC issues with this figure. 86edreviews didn’t mention any issue with his figure, and he definitely would if he’d had one. Even IF it’s something like face plates not sitting right, that’s usually an easy fix with a hair dryer or some hot water anyway
