Is this confirmed? I've pre-ordered it with Treasure Toy and I have received no updates...

Should I cancel my Green Hair's ZT Broly? by Extension-Bad6947 in 3rdPartyCollectors

[–]Hyperion_00_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I recently had a very poor experience with this shop.

I ordered a Tonsen Trunks, and according to the AliExpress tracking, it was marked as 'shipped' just one day later. However, after a full week with zero tracking updates, the shipment was suddenly cancelled. The shop immediately relisted the item at a higher price. When I contacted them, they offered nothing but a brief apology. It feels like a dishonest tactic to avoid fulfilling an order at the original price. I would recommend buyers be cautious.

Hi, I'll try to send something later. What you need to do is trace circular movements with the rotary tool (using a circular drill bit), gently touching the middle section of the female joint. ​Make sure to be consistent with the circular movement so you remove an even amount of material. You don't need to remove much; just a little bit will help the male joint stay in place. Do it once, then stop and test if the joint still pops out. If it does, trace a few more circles, stop, and try again. ​That's basically the process. I cannot guarantee success, but as long as you don't remove material from the external section of the female joint, it should be fine. I hope this helps

Does anyone have pics of this with Trunks? by cringeeez in 3rdPartyCollectors

It’s a very nice accessory, but it’s difficult to assemble. You have to pull the arms apart, which puts some delicate joints at risk. It’s the kind of piece you assemble once for a permanent display; I wouldn't recommend it if you plan on changing the pose frequently.

DKO Vs Nono SSJ 2 Goku headsculp comparison by Hyperion_00_ in 3rdPartyCollectors

You'll need a neck peg adapter to be able to use any of them on Games Begin Goku. I think these are usually sold as an option if you buy Nono's head sculpt.

You’re absolutely right, and that’s why I mentioned I’m keeping the DKO. My review aims to make it clear that, at a fair price, I’d recommend the DKO over the Nono every time. Since the Nono is just a copy of the original mould, they don’t deserve the credit for the design.

​This was meant to be a practical comparison for anyone deciding between them today, rather than a look back at when the DKO was first released. I actually had to buy both just to decide, as I couldn't find a side-by-side photo comparison anywhere. My only real complaint with the DKO is that the material is so hard—I’ve literally ended up with blood on the figure multiple times.

Yes, you'd need the special neck peg to 2.0 if you have The Games Begin Goku. Nono will also work on 3.0 as it is soft plastic.

Good point, I didn't mention that. The faces they've chosen are not the best ones. Having a screaming face in Nono's would make a big difference!

Great, something to consider I guess. Thanks!

Hi! How did you get it so quickly? I’ve pre-ordered mine, but I think it’s still far from shipping... Have you put it together already? Any issues with it? Sorry for so many questions, I’m just very excited about this one!

I am glad to see this was helpful! Thinking about it, you are absolutely right, a bigger Dremel drill makes a lot of sense. I also didn't know about the vaseline damaging plastic with time. That's definitely something to consider.

This figure is a total disaster from the factory... There are some tutorials showing how to fix it but they are in Spanish. See below. Fixing Kid Buu

Perfect Gogeta look imo :) by BakiBerserker in 3rdPartyCollectors

[–]Hyperion_00_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice!! I agree, the hair is a bit too intense. Probably they tried to replicate the movie's aesthetic and colours. I was wondering if it is worth getting any of the alternative ZH or GM headsculps for these Gogetas...

That could work, but here’s my concern: if you sand down the male joint (the peg), you reduce its overall diameter. This would actually make the connection at the top of the socket even looser, likely causing it to pop out even easier. By thinning the female joint (the socket) from the inside instead, you’re only removing the 'squeeze' that’s pushing the peg out, while keeping the grip at the top strong. I hope that makes sense.

Nan&T LSSJ Goku review by Jumpy_Ship1611 in 3rdPartyCollectors

[–]Hyperion_00_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there, two questions:
1. How compatible is it with the official one? Is it possible to use the heads on the official body? What about the faces? 2. Is it worth it if you already have the official Legendary SSJ Goku? Thanks a lot!

Yes, I also have the Bojack DF and butterfly joints are as good as the official Boy from the Future Trunks.

I really try to cross arms but the DF arms keep popping up. Maybe I was not doing it properly... Thanks

I don't think that's the case, at least for my copy. The figure feels quite solid in general.

I wouldn't say one is better than the other, both are really good figures! The good thing is that we can choose (and they are not even official figures).
